I've been making little books for a very long while. Years even!
I love the challenge of going smaller and smaller...
...while still being able to open them up and turn the pages.
There's something extra magical about being able to interact with those little things. When children pick up my little books the skepticism in their eyes turns into a flash of delight when discover they can open the cover and flip through the pages.
Anyway, after years of keeping it all to myself, I've decided to offer my book making technique with a PDF tutorial available in my etsy shop. I'm not gonna lie, it's a bit of a long process... but you end up with books that are pretty dang sturdy. I've left books in my pocket, put them through the wash, and they've come out the other end fully intact.
Instead of a template, the download shows you HOW to make the books so that you can add your own splash of magic and create them in whatever size or shape you like. Quick as can be you'll have an entire fairy library in no time at all.
You can find the listing HERE... and, don't tell anyone, but there's a little bonus project included too ;)
Wow! Thank you! I have admired all of your small books and can't wait to try it myself.
ReplyDeleteOh wonderful!! Thank you so much Nichola! I have loved your little books forever! I too am a hoarder of books and the one thing I have wanted to do is a little book room for the Good Folk so they have a cozy chair for a good read and a cuppa.:)
