Don’t we just love those old exercise books from primary school? I found a thick stack of them at home leftover from the times spent in the much maligned Singaporean Education System. My environmental urges, together with a little amateur craftsmanship and help from an avid diy-er practically forced me to embark on this little bookbinding project. It ain’t perfect, but its enough to make me a bibliophile. I think I want to write a novel, just so I can hand bind another book.

Oh, for the love of hard covers and hand stitches, a notebook like this deserves better handwriting than mine.
