leather-bound books
Books are handsewn and hand-bound with special care. Prioritizing quality over quantity, they are printed and built under one roof. I handcraft these leather-bound books to be unique and personal to you, a friend, or a loved one. They will be a one of a kind book to treasure. Take your writing, your book, special emails, or blank pages and I'll print, fold, hand-sew them into a hand-bound leather book to last a lifetime and beyond.
I format the pages to create a sewn binding style that has been around for centuries and has proven to be of quality construction. This method creates books that open nearly flat, offering both practicality and an unmistakable old-world charm. The weight, texture, and craftsmanship of each book give it a unique feel that sets it apart from anything else. There are many different options I can offer: paper types and endpaper options—including marbled designs—a range of leather types and colors, and even personalizing the cover with gold stamping, gold tooling, or debossing. You can be a part of the process every step of the way, making the choices to create your own unique timeless treasure.

Custom Leather Book Order Policies and Things to Know:
Pricing for a Custom Leather Book
A 6" x 9" with 200 handsewn pages, hand-bound in leather starts around $415. Adding printed text or images to the pages, creating custom images for covers, incorporating designs, adding titles to the leather cover or spine, choosing different types of leather, formatting by me if time allows, and other options will change the price. Pages are formatted for printing, printed, and folded here in my shop. Text blocks are sewn by hand onto tapes creating a book that opens nearly flat. These are handmade books from start to finish using your vision as my guide.
