Books, paper and a desire to craft

was readable...
Books are ubiquitous. Whilst some have a love for old or antique out-of-print books others relish in the feel and look of a polished new copy. Book folding provides the chance to use books, both old and new, in an original art form without cutting or gluing the original book so that ultimately it can also be enjoyed by the reader.
Lovingly prepared these books make the perfect gift – especially for those people who already love books. Indeed when folding books intended for gifts the art can be expanded by not only choosing the book suitable for the receiver of the book but also to fold the book in a design that is complementary to the topic of the book.
They look beautiful resting on a bookcase, dresser, mantel piece or coffee table. A perfect gift for someone you love, or treat yourself!
