Really, book making (right on your kitchen table) made simple!

From the recent spring cleaning of my personal library, this little palm-size book suddenly caught my eyes again. It's a step-by-step guide to creating your own notebook, sketchbook, dreambook, anything book. I remember I bought it at the time when I was just starting up my own retail store (specialising in learning & creativity books) to complement my strategy consulting business. Actually, it is perfect for anyone who want to build multiple copies of his or her writings or create personalised blank books. I thought I could use it to guide me in creating something unique that I could give away as 'thank-you' gifts to VIP customers. I eventually did some serious work but never got down to finishing the final prototype: an idea notebook. Nevertheless, the many practical hints in the book eventually inspired me to develop beautifully customised business proposals for my clients. To sum up, with this wonderful book, plus a little imagination & some paper, glue, cloth, cardboard, thread & a needle, you can start binding your own memorable book right on your kitchen table.
