In just 90 minutes, you’re fully guided step by step through the book making process, learning exactly how to bind a book from start to finish. This beginner-friendly book binding class is designed to feel approachable and doable, even if you’ve never tried craft classes before. You won’t need to bring a thing or stress about supplies. Every material is provided for you: paper, thread, needles, awls, cutting tools, and thoughtfully selected covers. All you have to do is show up ready to make something with your hands.

You leave with both a finished handmade notebook and the knowledge to keep creating on your own.Even better, all covers are made from upcycled materials, giving your book character and a second life to something old. Whether you’re looking for creative date ideas, unique things to do in NYC, or simply want to learn how to bind a book in a relaxed, supportive setting, this class makes the process feel inspiring and completely within reach!

Your teacher
Founded by a Brooklyn-based artist, graphic designer, and self-taught bookbinder, Salvage Bindery is a hands-on workshop series that turns reclaimed cardboard into beautifully bound notebooks. In each 90-minute, fully guided class, participants learn traditional binding techniques in a relaxed, welcoming setting -- no experience needed. Everyone leaves with a finished handmade notebook and the confidence to keep stitching and creating long after the workshop ends.
