Leuke creatieve workshop!

Voor ons leren huwelijk deze workshop gedaan bij Nina. Beide hadden wij nog nooit met leer of stof gewerkt en met de goede begeleiding van Nina zijn wij naar huis gegaan met 2 mooie covers. Leuk was dat er veel mogelijk was in kleuren van het leer, draad, manier van stikken, sluitingen en overige details. Daarnaast samen met Nina gekeken voor een aangepast formaat van de cover voor mijn eigen voorkeur aan notebooks.
Samen met Nina ook gekeken of er bepaalde details in verwerkt konden worden. Na samen wat puzzelen ervoor gekozen dat niet te doen. Met behulp van tips van internet en Nina, een lasersnijder en thuis nog een eigen stempel in de cover kunnen drukken.

Top workshop

Wij hebben een toffe middag gehad met het maken van onze notebook covers. Het was leuk om van Nina de kneepjes van het vak te horen en naar huis te gaan met een prachtig leren zelfgemaakt product!
