DIY | Leather Journal | Perpetual Nature Journal | Tips and Tricks

I moved to Washington a few years ago and have been enjoying the many trails, parks and beaches that surround me, and have been slowly noticing smaller details about my natural environment.

I reference the artist and biologist Lara Call Gastinger, whose idea of a perpetual nature journal I’m borrowing, and Sea Lemon, whose instructions for long stich binding I followed to make the journal.

Lara Call Gastinger’s website https://www.laracallgastinger.com/

There are two videos by Sea Lemon I reference, one that demo’s long stitch binding step by step...
   • DIY Long Stitch Bookbinding Tutorial ...  
While the other video goes over everything else...
   • DIY Leather Recipe Journal | How To C...  

Below are the materials I used for my journal…

Leather Sewing Craft Tools https://amzn.to/3OMqVj0 I call this a book binding kit in the video, but I guess I was wrong… oops…
