Book Folding 001 - Adding Color 

"Pigment of your imagination" love it!

Thank You. This was just what I was looking for. I wasted a lot of money trying to recreate this. I have all these supplies at home!

Hi Aaron, thanks for this tip, I tried it and it worked really well. I also tried it with watercolour and that works well too, although there isn’t the shine that the Mica has.

wow - that really looks awesome and I looked at the finished product - wow! - going to try it and try too the tip below looking up eye shadow instead of the mica - there are a few MMF books that I would like to try out with this - so hard to get a good finish on them - this might be my answer - thank you for posting this

I'd like to see the book with the folded design on it.

Enjoyed this. Will definitely try it

I would of liked to see a finished book .

I learn some new every day about bookfolding, ty Where can I get those colors?

Can you share a folded book after painting i5 so one can see the effect?

You might be able to use eye shadows in place of the expensive micas. You can get them at dollar tree for like, um a dollar. Eye shadow has mica in it and I use it in crafting in place of mica frequently. Just a thought.

If you wanted to add color to a 180 fold would you do the initial folds then add the color to the front edge, or would the process be different?

Thanks I had some mica left over from my soap making !

Thank you so much! I’m very excited to try this. Take care. 😊

Awesome thank you

Thanks🎉

If you were to add color to a 180 fold would you do all the initial 180 folds and then paint the front edge? Or would the process be different?

Thank you. Beautiful.

Thank you for the idea!!!

I've been looking for a video on this subject. Now I found one. Thank you!

Question… the added glue doesn’t make the pages stick together?
