Faux Leather Journals FINAL (3)

Alas! final images for this 6-Pack! somewhere in between steps i stained the pages with just diluted coffee and a hint of black acrylic.

 Once dry, i went on to fold the pages and pierce them with a needle tool...then came the fun sowing!! once again, using a coptic stitch because i'm not in the mood to learn a new stitch...maybe later...

 For the bookmark, i decided to go with just string with a piece of wood tied at its end. Cut the pieces out of 1/16th thick basswood...

 that i then stained with diluted coffee and black acrylic....carved out some wood here and there...
