Leaves don't need sunscreen, people do!

Finally, you can bind the classics. These 'Books in Sheets' are ready to bind with your favorite materials. They have been formatted in content-appropriate fonts, paginated into separate sections and copied onto good quality 70 lb. paper. You just fold and sew. Since you're purchasing just the words you have hundreds of options for binding. Christine would love to help you if you have any questions. Email me here.

Directions for folding the sections are provided with each set of Books in Sheets.

Each book has been formatted so that you can use it as-is or you can embellish the pages with rubber stamps, calligraphy or drawings.

We will be adding more classic books as time goes by so be sure to check back.
