Miniature open book

📚📚Happy Sunday!📚📚

Hope everyone is having a lovely Sunday. Today’s video is a miniature book, I’ve made this miniature book many times and it always comes out nice. In my video I made a fixed open book but you can also have it as a normal book since the book is properly bound and wont come apart.

Some of the tools I used:

-normal printing paper
-heavy card stock
-sand paper or sanding sponge
-fabric glue
-mod podge glue
-fabric
-some coffee

You can download the vintage pages from my google drive here: Vintage pages
Each tiny page fits the tiny book size dimensions in my video. But if you would like to make other sizes and dimensions you can find more vintage scanned works at the New York Public Library https://digitalcollections.nypl.org/

For assembling please follow my video. If you have any questions feel free to ask.

Thanks for watching!

    How did you print and find the small pages for your miniature story book.

      The original books are really old so they are in public domain.

    Hi, this looks so sweet, thanks for posting this tutorial, i just have a question about dipping the book in tea water. how do you spread the pages so nicely? do you dry the book beforehand? i made a test and the wet pages started to tear.

    tks

      Oh I squeeze to get most of the water out and then just gently move the pages.

    Than you kindly for your delightful book. Can you tell me, please, why you used to Mod Podge “paint” with the finished book, as I fear this would stick all the pages with each one.. I may well have made a mistake. Thank you once for your beautiful volume. Best Wishes for Christmas and the New Year 2026. Marion, UK
