Meet Bill Felker, Bookbinder in Yellow Springs.

You can find his beautiful handcrafted and uniquely one of a kind books at Village Artisans in Yellow Springs, Ohio. Bill is such a kind artist to work with and if you stop in on a day he is there you will probably catch him working a new books, ( like I did this past Monday, poor guy had no idea I would whip out the camera and start snapping away! ) He will answer any questions you have or just chat the afternoon away with you. Bill just recieved a new, Masculine shipment of leather, which he refers to as the Harley Davidson of book binding.. SO, If you are looking for a great masculine journal for your honey this Valentine's Day, you know where to go! Something I didn't know was that if you fill up your lovely journal, he will put a new set of paper in for you! Really???? You can use these over and over!
Thanks Bill for putting up with me!
ps,,,YES, Village Artisans does ship!

It's ok Jen I travel with wine and a camera too!! You know when I was a kid (and now too), one of the things I always thought would be cool is to be a book binder or restorer. Your post took me back :)
