New: Memory Books

July 16, 2013

Scrapbooks never looked so fine! I call mine Memory Books and they're great for family albums, wedding planning and recording your adventures - fill it with photos, mementoes, writing and sketching for analogue storage and display of your wonderful life.

I make your Memory Books to order so from the get-go you can customise yours exactly how you like it. So whether you love monochrome, bright citrus or muted tones, you'll have your perfect book. Ask me to print bespoke text on the frontspage: your family name, the year, an inspiring quotation... whatever you like. 

Bound with extra space in the spine to allow for your inclusions, these books lie flat on a desk and will never fall apart, thanks to their archival materials and binding style - that's the Longstitch with Linkstitch, in use since Medieval times. They have 128 pages of heavyweight quality cartridge paper which will take all dry medium artwork and glue. 

Your options are:

Size: Extra Large A4 (12 x 8.5 inches); Large A5 (6 x 8.5") or Medium A6 (4.5 x 6")

Format: landscape or portrait

Leather: 52 colours

Stitching: 22 colours 

Bespoke frontspage text.

Prices are £199 for Extra Large, £119 for Large and £90 for Medium plus postage by secure service, which is £9 UK, £15 EU, £19 non-EU. I ship worldwide with an impeccable track record and if you'd like to know the costs in your currency, just ask. To order, just email me to discuss your requirements: info@boundbyhand.co.uk
