leather book obsession

 a steampunk inspired leather covered notebook, with clock parts rivetted to the front

 the inside is covered with pages from a book on victorian crimes

 

this is an old notebook that I've covered, the rivets are for decoration and extra security to stop the leather coming away

and this one is completely homemade, the pages are ripped to size and stitched together before glueing

the cover is cereal box and old leather jacket glued together

here are the instructions I followed

This is great because I get to make something different but still get to hit metal stuff with a hammer
