Helloooo dear friends and craft lovers! :)
We have here, a new mini-book binding video to make your own realistic miniature books with real printed pages you can read! You can make them to add to miniature doll houses and bookshelves, or just to have fun. We had such a relaxing time, spending lots of hours making a bunch of these miniature books. Hope you enjoy making them too.

- Coloured paper or printed paper for the covers and end-papers, of thickness 80-120 gsm.
This card, of weight 250-400 gsm

Follow the steps below to easily make your own mini books:
1. Print strips of tiny pages on 80-100 gsm Lightweight paper. Cut the strips along the edges.
2. Cut a cover piece from printed paper or coloured paper.
3. Make creases along the edges of the tiny pages. Fold along the creases, like an accordion.
4. OPTIONAL: We have cut 2 pages and kept them aside to use later to decorate the book cover.
5. Apply glue and stick the pages back to back, as shown.
6. Open the pages to ensure they are not stuck together. Let them dry.
7. Take 250-400 gsm card paper and cut 2 pieces for the cover, bigger than the book size by 1 mm on 3 sides, as shown in the video.
8. Stick the 2 cards on the cover paper, leaving enough room for the spine in the middle.
9. Trim the edges. Apply glue to the flaps, and fold and press well to stick.
10. Choose end paper to match the cover. Cut 2 pieces of end-paper, each being double the size of the book, as shown in the tutorial video.
11. Stick end paper to the bound pages.
12. Apply glue on the end paper and attach the book to the cover.
13. Have fun decorating the cover. We used a picture from one of the pages of the book, we had cut off earlier.
14. Your mini book is ready! Oh, the joy of flipping through the tiny pages! :)
