Personal scrapbook




A personal scrapbook made out of discarded pages from the handwritten bible. (It's actually called a "blizzard book" and it's completely made out of folded paper without sewing or adhesive, just folding single sheets of paper to create little pockets. Phillip found out about it from The Penland Book of Handmade Booksa book that is very important to this project: it inspired him to teach himself how to do bookbinding so that he could bind the volumes of the handwritten bible himself.)

There are many discarded pages which means there are many of these little books! Phillip uses this one to keep our project related ephemera and correspondence in one special place.
