Folded Book Art: 35 Beautiful Projects to Transform Your Books

In the first chapter, Folding Books, get folding and make a beautiful bird, a sailor’s knot and a shining star, they look impressive but are deceptively simple to make. In Chapter 2, Making Scenes, Clare Youngs shows you how to cut and glue splendid scenes such as tiny paper mushrooms and ferns under a glass bell jar, a fairytale castle and a tiger in the jungle, all of which would make great gifts, or just keep and display them all yourself! Chapter 3, Refashioned Pages, has ideas for transforming the pages cut from books – make greeting cards, a botanical print lampshade and hanging birds. All the projects have helpful step-by-step instructions and illustrations so all you need are a few old books and you are ready to start!
