Girl Scout Bookbinding Kit - BULK ORDER

Pre-cut Materials and Instructions to facilitate a Girl Scout Cadette Book Artist bookbinding workshop.

Girls will be able to personalize their creations by choosing the spine and paper combinations for their cover, decorating the cover with additional embellishments, and choosing whether they want to create a Blank Journal, or a bound copy of “The Light Princess”.

”The Light Princess” by George MacDonald tells the story of a princess afflicted by constant weightlessness, unable to get her feet on the ground, both literally and metaphorically.
