In Gorron, Laura Boutilly opens a book binding workshop

After working in administration in the town of Gorron (North Mayenne) for seventeen years, I wanted to return to my first loves: Books, reveals Laura Boutilly. My earliest memories are of the stories my mother read to me at bedtime. My biggest punishment: depriving myself of my bedside lamp to read,” she smiled.

I was looking for a job combining my passion for books with a manual activity. I wanted a physical result, to have something concrete at hand. She then followed professional training for a year, in art bookbinding in Saint-Lô (in Manche), and obtained her CAP.

“Everything that is a record to keep”

It therefore offers its binding services to administrations: communities, museums, notaries, parishes, everything that is a record to keep but also to individuals: A photo album to repair, a family book that we want to keep, a comic book to restore, a guestbook to create…

In addition to this binding service, there is also writing assistance: speeches to write, biography to write, etc. Ideas are given to me, I put them into sentences.

Furthermore, Laura Boutilly plans to create courses to learn how to create a book.
