Making a Zine

After designing the Zine, making it is very easy and simple much like everything else about it.
For my Zine as there was to be no computers that meant no typing, so to have text in my Zine I would have to handwrite it myself using freehand and stencils which were scalped out and pained over to created a weathered worn effect.



After the Zine is finished and printed the only stage left is to bind it together, there are multiple was of doing this the most common is either stapling or saddle stitching.



I have opted for saddle stitching as it again ties (see what I did there) in with the whole traditionally eco feel. The method is very simple make three holes in the Zine one in the middle and one on either side of that then basically feed through thread and tie in the middle.
