Bound by Hand

Finely crafted books designed to last a lifetime, with a focus on tactile natural materials.

Hello, my name is Susan Green. From the garden studio of my home in Dorset, I make a range of fine leather journals, sketchbooks, wedding guest books and memory books, and offer vegan options, too.

I have been in business since 2008 and have had the pleasure and privilege of making books for individuals, families, and brands large and small, all over the world.

I am a selected member of the Crafts Council Directory, and you may have seen my work featured in Country Living, Country Homes & Interiors, and The Sunday Telegraph, to name but a few. And you can pop into Villa Ventorum at The Newt in Somerset to see some of my leather books, too!
