For the second SDL project I needed a small A5ish sketchbook to contain research on 2 specific words as well as a new learning journal to record any extra notes. I created both of these using waste packaging and extra paper from old sketchbooks.
The front of the learning journal |
The learning journal was created using waste cardboard covered in an old H&M bag, with empty cut-up cans on top of this for the outside. |
Cello tape was added on all sharp edges to make them safe, and opening rings hold together the covers and pages by holes. Pages can be added when necessary to avoid wastage. |
The back, once again created using 3 cut-up cans |
The second book, to be used as the main research book, was created from
an old cake-mix box with 6 separate sets of paper (once again
unused paper from old sketchbooks) sewn into the spine.
The idea for this book was taken from the book "How to
Make Books", by Esther K. Smith.
