- Paper and pasteboard making.
- Digitized a book & materials repair manual I wrote in graduate school.

I have recorded some of my work at Christine's Compendium.
Classes
Jenevra, as she prefers to be called, is happy to teach the following classes:
- Bookbinding
- Papermaking
- Essential Oils
- Herbalism
- Lucet Basics
- The Organization of Knowledge in Period
Handouts
- Schola in the Shire - From Scribe to Binding
Court Will / In Case of Peerage
- My husband Fearghus O'Conchobhair has my ICOP letter. As to Court, I don't mind being surprised but it's really hard to do that. I pick up on people's behaviors and then start guessing.
- I LOVE the scrolls I have been gifted - so grateful to the artists! I would just a little bit like one with some goldwork on it - the styles I have are in other traditions.
