Making Tiny Books - Fully Functional Leatherbound Books in Miniature

Hi everyone, I’m Dennis, and welcome to my bindery! As the first project of 2023 I decided to try my hand at making a miniature book. Miniature books are defined as being less than 3 inches in height, but I wanted to go much smaller! I was so excited about how the first one turned out that I decided to make some more and share them with you here! These tiny books are not models that just look like books in miniature. They are properly bound, fully-functional books, with all the elements of a regular hand-bound book. And though they are only 1.5 inches high they still have 128 pages each! In this video I use the same techniques and virtually all of the regular equipment that I would normally use to bind a full-size book. Some of the materials I used for these books include: Tomoe River A4 52gsm paper (cream) Goatskin Leather Handmade Marbled Paper (my own) Linen Thread Acid-Free PVA Glue Metallic Transfer Foil If you’ve enjoyed this video then ple
