Welcome to Nina Fenner's Handmade Books
I make unique handmade books and run workshops that enable others to do the same.

Books
I make a wide variety of books. All are very tactile and just ask to be handled and filled with your stories, sketches, recipes, songs. To see more images of my books click on the image

About me
I am fortunate to live in a very beautiful part of Rural Devon, on the northern edge of Dartmoor. My main income comes from gardening for private individuals. I also work mornings on a sheep farm in the winter, have done life modelling and do occasional days showing youngsters round local farms and doing craft activities at playdays..... and I make books and teach others how to.
In my spare time I work on my allotment, sew, sketch, play the guitar and sing. This is my current favourite photo of me paddling in the sea in cornwall, taken by my brother in law.
