I think I've got it this time...maybe...

I think this will perhaps be my final attempt to get what I consider the PERFECT book of shadows/grimoire. In an accidental search of the internet, I found great blank parchment-type pages. Unfortunately it'll take up a LOT of colored and black ink to print out all the pages I have made, but it'd be worth it, especially if I can make a flawless cover for it.

My current dilemma (aside from needing a new printer (seeing as my old one is too picky and won't recognize my newer computer)), is deciding on if I want to make it a post bound book or hard-bind this one. I wouldn't mind trying to make another "practical magic" style book...on one side have all my basic information on the parchment type pages, hard bound, then on the flip side, information I find that I'll write out, and espeically any spells, rituals and recipes I create. It would be really nice if I could screw bind both, that way I can include more pages in the future if I want...but I foresee difficulties, especially with closing the book if I go that way.

Now...if I could figure out how to ribbon bind a book, that would be PERFECT. The book would look like it were hard bound, but I would be able to unbind the ribbon to add more pages later.

Time for research (ugh I hate research lmao).

I'm slowly getting there...every day I get closer and closer to perfection!!!

Here's a tiny sampling of my pages:

**UPDATE**
I've posted a video of what I have so far on my other blog, but I'll post it here too

Note, the binder is definitely temporary :)
