This is my favorite hobby of all time. A few months ago, I got into bookbinding. I scoured the internet for how-tos and lists. These are the supplies I use for all of my book binding and rebinding.

I use this to bind my own notebooks, journals and books. This tool makes it so easy to punch the hole and thread the rope through. #bookbinding #threading #booklovers #wermemory
I love this brand of cardstock. You can typically buy a pack for $12.99 and they have a variety of option. I use this cardstock for the first inside page of books or for the outer cover of my small notebooks #cardstock #bookbinding #rebind #crafts

I would definitely recommend the FINE TIP version of this. The blunt tip pen is cheaper, but the fine tip can make more precise, thinner, intricate designs. #foilquill #foilpen #bookdesigns #bookbinding #crafting

You will need these as well as the other paint brush. I wash these with warm water and soap to get a few extra uses out of them. #foambrush #paint #art #bookbinding

I will say, you absolutely do not NEED this for bookbinding but it sure is helpful. If you are talented with a Foil Quill Pen or Paint, you may never need this. I love designing my covers on Canva and using my Silhouette to print/iron them on. #Silho...
