Making Tiny Books - Fully Functional Leatherbound Books in Miniature 

What a charming anecdote, thank you for sharing it! Clearly your teacher was a troll and their offspring went on to lurk in the darkest corners of internet comment threads.

@@FourKeysBookArts 😅

My favorite teachers were the ones who actually encouraged that behavior. I used some paper from my school binder to do something similar for my sister's dollhouse. My teacher reprimanded me for not paying attention, but the next day, she brought me a couple of books on bookbinding she borrowed from the city library just for me. She was my 4th Grade Science teacher. She and three other teachers like that are the reason for my user/channel name and why I can never stop myself from learning about and, if I can afford it, trying out new crafts.

@@taitano12 It's too bad that some "teachers" can be real killjoys and that kids have no power in their sphere of influence for a whole school year but you got a good one. Yay! Crafting and learning forever! And Four Keys Book Arts is offering a goldmine of knowledge here. I am just so surprised at how much skill he has after just a few years. I am charmed by his work and so happy to come across this channel!

@@Woodlawn22 The best ones are the ones who refuse to stop caring about their students. Your teacher was not wrong about wasting what sounds like some quality paper, but a good teacher will work with such a distraction; great teachers will harness it. The second most encouraging, but best overall teacher I ever had was my 8th Grade Science teacher. Several of my fellow nerds and I were falling behind in our homework out of boredom but were frustrating the heck out of him by acing all our tests. During first week of the second quarter, we managed to hack into one of the games we were constantly distracted by on his Tandy TRS-80 computers. He was naturally frustrated because we were supposed to be doing our homework. Because that quarter's focus was on computers and we were first and foremost computer nerds, we pretty much simultaneously said "Why?" and another of us said we already knew the stuff by heart and pointed to what we were doing. It so happened that he'd misplaced the notebook that had the passwords to the Trash-80s we were playing with. So, he said he'll bump us up a grade if we could hack into the computer grade files that he kept on those dinosaurs by the end of the week (seriously, it was already 1994 and the school district was installing WANs and connecting to the newfangled 'internet' that came out the previous year.) It was either a Monday or Tuesday, I don't remember which, but it was the first part of the week. During the hour lunch period, it took us five minutes to figure it out, fifteen to twenty minutes to write the program, and 18 seconds to execute the code, and another couple of minutes to print out all his passwords. He laughed and gave us all an A+ for the quarter on the condition that we don't skip class and we get at LEAST a B on each of the remaining tests for that quarter. We ended up motivated enough to get more of our homework in, ace every test, and, bringing in the relevant electronics and computer magazine articles, point out where he should update the curriculum He finally submitted and upgraded to a new computer and some high-end security software - which he had us install as a parting gift at the end of the year (the computer arrived half way through the last quarter of the school-year). We were going off to High School, after all. 😁 One of the most epic teachers I have EVER come across. The runner up was my 9th Grade English Literature teacher.

Love stop motion!... my favorite: Mike Jittlov 😍

I am sicked of stop animation and all stuff of video editing technique. video editor just abuse this for nothing but make motion sickness. In addition, cutting down the process make it difficult to understand all making step

Thank you so much!

Love that!

Thank you so much!

Yes, indeed!❤

It's a lovely thing to say, and I agree wholeheartedly.

Such beautiful work love them all

I agree, well said.

I agree with you. It really is what this chaotic world needs.

Most people cringe when I cut on the benchtop, but that's what it's for. Glad you enjoyed it!

How would you go about making a book like this from preprinted single pages?

I did this with a doll and a robe a la francaise (She was too small for boning. And the boning I had cut for the pocket hoops were a disaster, but she has the right outline and I'm happy especially with how the head turned out)

Thank you! 😊

As a younger man I did but now my glasses are my #1 tool 😎

It's Tomoe River paper, so maybe a Japanese EF fountain pen?

Micron 001?

Thanks so much!😊

Thank you so much!
