\nThis one of a kind guestbook was created by me for folks getting married at Niagara Falls, with a beautiful vintage nautical chart of the area. I remember one year I got to see the falls twice; once on a beautiful warm May day (on my way to a wedding that took place on a roller coaster<\/a>) and once on a freezing cold February day when everything was glistening with ice. This is a one-of-a-kind nautical chart guestbook – When I say one of a kind, I mean it! I don’t have any other charts of Niagara Falls right now, so when it sells, that’s it! (You can check to see if it’s still available for sale by clicking here:<\/em> Niagara Falls Guestbook<\/a>)<\/p>\n

I stitched this 7″x9″ (7″x18″ when opened) hardcover guest book together by hand and it is filled with 36 pages (72 sides, front and back) of creamy 90 lb drawing paper.<\/p>\n

The book is hand-sewn with a coptic stitch, a type of braided binding that I did with blue waxed Irish Linen thread, which is really strong. Check out this blog post to see a big stack of handmade nautical chart guestbooks<\/a> (all of these have been sold)<\/p>\n

If you follow me on Instagram<\/a> you’ll be able to see process photos for the creation of this and many other books.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
