Pop Arts: Matchbox Books (grades 9-12)

We will be making tiny books that fit inside of a matchbox or a book of matches. You will learn some basic bookbinding skills, as well as how to make your own secret hidden books.

Instructor: Alison Dilworth

Required supplies:
A matchbox or book of matches (with the matches removed)
Needle
Thread (any color)
Pushpin (for making holes in book structure)
Blank paper: any decorative paper you might have (the patterned insides of envelopes work great for this)
A piece of cardboard
Glue stick
Pencil
Any art supplies you already have for decorating
