I hope I'm posting in the right place but I have never made an altered book before and I am very keen to have a go so could someone point me in the right direction for a total beginner please.

Me too, so again I dont know if Im posting in the right place but I'd love to have a go! What do you need to alter books - is there a special type of glue etc?

when i clicked the link on little lucy 13s message my computer went crazy and brought up virus found close link messages - i run a prof. version of avast which picks up most things so thought i would make a note in case anyone else doesnt have great protection.

Here is a good site for supplies

This is a very good site if you are just starting out on altering books like I am, I have just started doing my first one. I have also bought some good books off Amazon as well.
