ITTY BITTY BOOK

Miniature things are very popular and miniature books are no exception. Amy Hand, one of our newest NORBAG members, has graciously offered to teach us how to make an Itty Bitty Book at our March workshop. This looks like a fun project and a good way to welcome spring by making some Itty Bitty Books to go into Easter baskets. The book we will be making measures 1 1/2" x 2 1/4", but Amy said that the size can be made smaller or larger once you have the basic pattern.


This is a good opportunity to use some fun decorative
paper. Amy colored her pages with bubble prints and
used paste paper for the covers.

Materials

  • 1 sheet of 8 1/2" x 11" copy paper or light weight paper for the inside pages of your book
  • 1 sheet of paper (printed or not)  to be folded for the cover of your book
  • scissors
  • ruler
  • glue of choice (Amy prefers the Scotch Create glue stick)
  • cutting mat (optional)
  • X-acto or craft knife (optional)

When:   Saturday March 11 at 10 a.m. PST

Where:  On your computer, tablet, or smartphone via Zoom

RSVP:    To Dolores Guffey by March 6 to receive the password

Zoom Questions: Bobbie Hayes
