Design your very own traveler's notebook from scratch in this hands-on book binding and leatherworking workshop in Bushwick!
Guided step by step, you’ll start by bookbinding two notebooks: one daily planner and one blank notebook, ready to be filled with your ideas, sketches, and notes. Next, you’ll craft a genuine leather cover in your choice of color, cutting and assembling it into a durable traveler's notebook that’s both practical and beautiful.
Once your cover is complete, it’s time to accessorize and personalize. Add charms, elastic cords, and decorative extras to make it uniquely yours. Want to give your journal a luxe touch? Choose the optional gold foil embossing upgrade (+$15) and add a shimmering, custom design.
To keep the creativity flowing after class, you’ll also receive a take-home kit packed with extra notebooks, folders, and accessories so you can continue decorating and expanding your traveler's notebook system.
This small, beginner-friendly class in Brooklyn ensures plenty of one-on-one guidance, making it ideal for anyone curious about book arts, journaling, or leathercraft. Whether you’re new to creative workshops or already love creative projects, you’ll leave with a one-of-a-kind traveler's notebook you’ll be excited to reach for every day.

Hi, I’m Zoe! Six months ago, I left my job as a software engineer at a super fast paced startup to build Mojo Studio - a creative community space in Brooklyn where people can slow down, connect, and make something beautiful with their hands.
The idea actually started when I hosted my very first keychain workshop for Lunar New Year (the workshop sold out 4 times within 2 days)! Usually I’d spend that holiday with family, but this year I spent it with strangers who believed in me - and it was such a magical feeling that I realized I could actually quit my job and pursue this full-time.
Since then, I’ve hosted hundreds of people across 5–7 workshops every week. Everything from charm-making, collaging, to sip & paints, and linocut printmaking.
Why do I love teaching? Because I’ve seen how powerful it is when people sit down at a table together, craft something with their hands, and leave with not just an artwork, but also a new connections. For me, it’s never just about the craft - it’s about creating a space where people feel comfortable, creative, and connected.
Some fun things I’m proud of:
I’ve been featured by NBC and Time Out New York for my workshops.
Brands like Dazed have invited me to run large-scale activations (hello 100+ person charm bar!).
I design all my workshops to be beginner-friendly, affordable, and joyful. Absolutely no art background required.
At Mojo Studio, I believe creativity is for everyone. Whether you’re celebrating something special, bonding with coworkers, or just looking for a cozy way to spend an evening, I’d love to welcome you into our little community.
