Every blank book from Blue Bluer Books is a one-of-a-kind creation, each featuring uniquely designed covers. I combine my aesthetic as an artist with my training as a book repair technician to create books that will be inspiring, sturdy, and long-lasting.

I believe in making work available at a variety of prices so that people of differing levels of means can enjoy working with beautiful, handmade books. To keep my case-bound journals more affordable I use high quality pre-made text blocks, binding them into handmade covers. All of my other styles of blank books—coptic bindings, French link-stitch sketchbooks, wedding guest books, etc.—are completely handmade, including tearing the paper down to size by hand. I believe that the high level of care and attention put into each book is palpable in the final product.
