Description Here are some more books I have for sale up at the Cottage Industry Co-op in Downtown Orlando. I made these a couple weeks ago but I never got around to posting pictures. I've got 12 more books in the making. Mostly bigger ones.

The seahorse book is my new favorite

Did you just use regular computer paper for these little journals?

Usually I use sketch book paper, but I have used printer paper in the past. It works alright.

Yeah, I tried regular paper, but it's just too...white/flat for me. Maybe if I antiqued it first. XD

But specifically for these journals, did you use sketchbook paper? Sorry if I'm asking silly questions.

Yeah, sketchbook paper works better because its 'softer'. It folds better and just has a cleaner look about it. I make these little ones out of scraps from bigger books I've made.

It looks more bookish than regular copy paper. XD I bet if you antiqued the copy paper though....hmm...like stained it with tea or something, it would look a little better.

Thanks for answering my questions. :3

These are amazing! If I can ask, how do you get the back binding rounded like that? and also how do you get the signatures so straight?!

Once again Amazing work! these are absolutley gorgeous

Rounding the back is easy, I just round the signatures before I glue it and then bend the illustration board some so it fits snug around it. And my awesome industrial strength paper cutter really helps with the straightness of the edges

Thanks
