Book Him Danno!

I love paper crafts and making books in particular.  There's so many ways we can create books: from simply stapling paper together to the meticulously painstaking art of book binding.  Here on Folksy there are some fantastic books and paper crafts and I hope you like this small selection.

Wow - I'd no idea there were so many kinds of books to be found on Folksy! I'm a big fan of Bookity's creative use of books, but love all these picks ;-)

A fantastic variety! Glad to see Kate Bowles included - her books are so beautifully made and have a great quirky edge to them.

I agree, Kate Bowles work is just exquisite! And she's a lovely person to boot - I've had the pleasure of meeting her several times at the Ilkley Arts Market - just such a lovely person (with a lovely daughter too!)
