First of all, I have to say thank you... Thank you to Charlotte for her time and work, to Claire for her flowers and her work, to Morgan, for his patience and his work (a double thank you even), to Jean-Phillipe from Coq Sportif, for his warm welcome and the terrace, to Capucine Léonard Matta for her little golden hands and her work. And a huge THANK YOU to Rémy, to MorganAntonin, Rémi and a special thanks to Théophile...

It's been a long time since I wanted to thank you for the tremendous welcome you gave to Make my partyNow I'm thinking about a sequel, why not a volume II on fashion and decoration? Or maybe a little something else while we wait for the big one... We'll see what the future holds.

THANK YOU for being so loyal and so many - it's so crazy when I look back over my shoulder. It makes me dizzy, so this Sunday I'm all about love, as I often am when I come here. I'm going to meet some of you today with the first workshop... the second session will be online later this week, I can't tell you exactly when I'll have to make my schedule, but be there, it's coming fast. 

Love to you all.

Doityourselfeusement vôtre, Lisa

 To finish your Make my party, you need:

- A Make my party,

-Download the Chapter 6 (by clicking on the link) and print it on matte paper,

- linen thread and a thick needle,

- a metal ruler and a cutter.

As you've probably noticed, there are small holes all along the pages of your last chapter, which you'll need for the binding. Use the needle to pierce all these holes.

Once all the holes have been drilled, gather up all your pages and clip them together with large clips, which will make the task much easier. Then use the large needle to go through all the holes again, and feel free to enlarge them by making circles with the needle.

Start by threading the needle through the second hole from the bottom (from the back of the chapter to the cover). Then thread through the same hole to secure the edge. Generally speaking, you'll need to pass through all the holes twice. However, if you're in a panic, I suggest you take a look at these instructionsIt was my salvation in making this Japanese binding.

I'm giving you this link to the technique, which sounds a bit barbaric but it's not, just follow the numbers and it'll be very clear... But there's nothing to stop you from binding this chapter by passing a thread through each of the five holes, then tying five little knots.

 You've got your bound chapter. Well done... Isn't it beautiful? Time for your self-satisfaction break...

Then grab your "Make my party", go to the end of your book, and using the ruler and cutter, cut along the dotted lines in the 4 corners of the page (protect the back of your 4th cover though). Then slide your last chapter into the slots.

And TA-DA! Thanks again for all your love!
