Sarah will be at the Pullen Arts Center Open House and Craft Fair on Saturday, October 20th. Each book is handmade by Raleigh artist Sarah Brooks, from the folding and sewing of the paper to designing and creating the cover. The quality greatly surpasses mass produced books, in which the pages are just glued. The covers are made from decorative recycled fabrics or art papers from around the world. Additional features include original artwork, collages, antique postcards and buttons.
Every book is a unique and beautiful work of art-yet surprisingly affordable.
To see examples of all the styles available, please visit the wholesale page. Traditional and Japanese Brooks Books is an environmentally friendly company. Scraps are not thrown away, but saved and used. Whenever possible, materials are recycled.
