Course programme

You will learn how to make beautiful, sturdy boxes that keep their contents clean, tidy and protected from dust or damage. Make boxes in exactly the right size and materials to present and preserve your work for much less than the cost of commercially available alternatives.Whether you are an artist, photographer or printmaker looking to learn how to make the perfect presentation box for your work, or are interested in making decorative boxes for different occasions like storing your favourite object or wrapping a special present, this course is for you.

It is suitable for anyone including complete beginners and is also a perfect follow-up course for those who have done "Bookbinding for Artists" or "Beginners Bookbinding".Using materials including greyboard, bookcloth, and a selection of patterned papers, you will learn step by step how to plan, construct and finish different types of boxes from a slipcase for a book, a presentation box for loose sheets and a box for objects with a separate lid. At the end of the course you will not only take home your own collection of hand-made boxes, you will also be able to carry on making boxes at home without needing complicated or expensive equipment.
