Join this new course to create your own scroll book using a wooden bobbin and some Hanji (mulberry paper).
Ill show you how to strengthen paper, attach it to your bobbin and attach a button.
Its great for writing a message on.
Scrolls originate from Egypt where papyrus scrolls were the first scroll books. East Asia adopted the scroll book before eventually moving onto accordion books.
Theres something so ephemeral about scrolls. You can try different papers and also cloth. So many possibilities!
If you miss out on one of our limited edition kits, here’s what you need;
Wooden bobbin (originally used for thread)
Mulberry paper
Cotton thread
Button
Glue or double sided tape
A pen
