I had no idea you can fold three ways using the same pattern. Thank you for sharing. It was helpful to me EDIT: I wonder if the one where the folds go half way (left side on your shelf), if you can just fold it halfway instead of listeining to the pattern for the leaf? Have I understood correctly?
That's so beautiful. I was trying to find something special to give as gift to my dad and brother and now I've no doubt I found the right and cheap present. Just two questions, please. Where can I get this heart template to follow the steps and how many pages I will use to do the hearts. With this information I will be able to calculate how many pages I need to leave in the start and in the end to have the heart exactly in the middle. Thank you very much.
There's a German website (also available in English) called "Vektorrascheln" there you can create a template easily with the "Bookart Generator". It's very easy, you can then just print it (: hope I could help!
I'm getting myself very confused. I understand the markers and how to fold but how do you start folding the first pages, can't see how it's started in the video or instructions I've printed! And watching you start it with the heart pattern torn from the beginning is confusing me also. I'm easily confused it seems.. Help! Thanks
I want to make this for my girlfriend, she would love this! but how many pages would you need, im not sure if i could find a book with enough pages and a hard cover for the first one Also would an average A4 book work for this or would i need a bigger book
Your page says that these patterns are for books of 320, 387 & 407 pages. What if your book is larger still? Do you recommend buying a different book or are there considerations for this. I want to make one for my girlfriend for her birthday and she is a huge fan of Martina Cole, so I thought one of these books, "The Family" would have more meaning. Unfortunately, the book is just shy of 500 pages. Before I buy your template (which I will do anyway) I would like to know if I need to find another book. Thanks!
+DIYMarta I'm confused, I downloaded the pattern from etsy and it says it requires 320 pages, bu there aren't 320 lines on the template. How does this work, ?
Andrew Mistele The 320 refers to numbered pages. There are 160 stripes which equal 160 sheets of paper which equal 320 numbered pages (each sheet in a book has 2 numbers)
If I wrote a book, I would be totally ok with it. After all, she spent money for a copy. Also if it is a favorite, why not buy 2? One for reading, another for beautiful art to display and remind you? Supports the author, publisher, bookstores. Used bookstores can surely use the help. I think it's wonderful art AND supports the community!
you can either fold 90 degrees or fold all the pages to the same place (the top and bottom marks). The second method means all the angles will be different. Hope that helps
Very nice video! For anyone who wants to get templates there's a so called "Bookart Generator" on the website "Vektorrascheln" (It's a German website, but translated to English, so everyone can use it)
ur not destroying it ur just folding it u can flatten out the pages to be used again anytime you want. destroying it would be to make it to where you couldn't read it ever again.
Elaine264 you're not destroying the book, you are reusing it to make something beautiful, instead of throwing it away, or sitting unloved on a bookshelf xxx
Ikr. I know its art, but I care for my books. The thought of making it into something is cool, but you won't be able to read it without ruining the hearts. hearts And the more it folds, the more likely it going to tear. Itd be one thing if it was a $5 or less book, but it was hardback so it was probably $15 or more. Still liked the video. I once made a Christmas tree out of a magazine in girl scouts
THANK YOU for showing how to do this. Your detail with the instructions was wonderful. I am a new Fan!!!
I really like this video ...I haven't done any book folding before but I'm going to try it and the second one is my favourite !!
I think these look beautiful! they look complicated to look at but seem easy to do. I can't wait to try it 😀
U make it more easier 😄 thank you mam
Like. This is beautiful. I love it. I am a beginner bookfolder. Greetz from Holland.
Thank you. Have fun folding.
I really like the third one you showed!
Karleigh Reads Glad you liked it! I think it's the easiest way to fold a book pattern.
I had no idea you can fold three ways using the same pattern.
Thank you for sharing. It was helpful to me
EDIT:

Absolutely brilliant video!!
I am amazed!
Beautiful♥️
I love those, do you have a tutorial for the inverted heart please. Thank you
@Lucy Nguyen Lots of templates right here www.etsy.com/shop/PompandWhimsy
How any pages does a book need to make these patterns? Thank you for sharing this really cool form of art.
+robinpen100 320 pages

excellent jobb. beautiful creation.thanks for this.I loved it.
A nice and easy way to do this. Thanks. Only wish it didn't have that background music...
How do you start from the beginning of the template when folding?
Hi, do u fold to the white and black lines ?? Great video !
Yes. Fold black and white stripes
@@Diymarta Thank you very much!
Hi just got the pattern, I just would of like to see how you started the heart i'm having trouble with that.
+Susan Petitt Watch this video to see how to start th-cam.com/video/DJ9kFzhszw0/w-d-xo.htmlm10s
Could you please tell me about the math behind number of page and number of strips in picture ???
it's beautiful!..... haha no I can't do this I'll stick to my crochet 😊
These are really nice! I was wondering where you get your templates because im having trouble finding some online. Thanks
There's a German website (also available in English) called "Vektorrascheln" there you can create a template easily with the "Bookart Generator". It's very easy, you can then just print it (:
hope I could help!
Where can you get the pattern?
Do I need to add pages when doing the 2nd pattern, where you skip every 3 pages?
Where did you get the striped heart pattern?
hi want to know how i calculate on how many i need for a another pattern that is fold? Ty
Do you have a video where you start from the very beginning?
I'm in my car, so can't give a thorough answer, but check out all my "folded book" videos under diymarta. Thanks for asking.
when folding 5 sheets, the line of the pattern advances or the 5 sheets go with the same line?
Sorry I just saw this. Fold only ONE sheet for EACH stripe (black, white, black, white)
Will these 3 methods work with any pattern? or just the heart one?
If I buy your pattern for this will it have all three ways to fold including how many pages it will need for each one , I love the 3d effect
Jean Sandbach Yes. Check out the article link under the video above.
@@Diymarta please send link to buy pattern
This is my first book folding project. I'm doing the 2nd heart, and my book is 382 pages. What do you do with the rest of the pages?
I would fold the book according to the pattern and after every five pages, fold one page back (but don't mark it off on the pattern)
I'm getting myself very confused. I understand the markers and how to fold but how do you start folding the first pages, can't see how it's started in the video or instructions I've printed! And watching you start it with the heart pattern torn from the beginning is confusing me also. I'm easily confused it seems.. Help! Thanks
I want to make this for my girlfriend, she would love this!
but how many pages would you need, im not sure if i could find a book with enough pages and a hard cover for the first one
Also would an average A4 book work for this or would i need a bigger book
you only need 320 pages for this one. Easy peasy
Thank you
cool 👍☺
Where did you get your lined heart for the fold marks? or the template?
Phyllis Minga I make them and sell them on Etsy. Check out my shop there: Pomp and Whimsy
how can I find this other heart paper I should search in Google what say to this paper
Will this still work with a soft spine?
Good question. No, it won't. The book will fall forward.
Lovely! How do you know what line you are working on since the lines are so close together? Also how many pages should the book be? Thanks!
+nellie272003 320 pages
+GigiGaming123 @gam

i can make you a custom pattern for only 5.99 so you can use your book. Go to my Etsy store and put in an order.
DIYMarta That's great! Will do that! Thank you for a quick reply. One last question, I won't need Photoshop, will I?
great👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
+DIYMarta I'm confused, I downloaded the pattern from etsy and it says it requires 320 pages, bu there aren't 320 lines on the template. How does this work, ?

DIYMarta
Oh duh, I should have thought of that.... thank you!
Andrew Mistele That's 320 numbered pages. Each page in a book has a number on each side of the page.
DIYMarta But if you fold back every third or fifth page (as in the second and third heart example), how many pages do you need? 💜
Superb!!!!
I am amazed#omg
Can I do this with using 200 some words?
You mean pages? if you skip every third fold, yes

my Etsy store Pomp and Whimsy

vikings4l1fe Each stripe--black and white--is one sheet in a book.
Thank you! & Thank you for taking the time to respond to each individual comment. You are a true character and wonderful person.

When she folds my favorite book... *cries*

how many pages do u use
+Tina Barratt 320 pages
+GigiGaming123 Bruh This just wasting my time
where can I find the template?
my Etsy shop Pomp and Whimsy
+DIYMarta thank you!
but u just have to fold 90 degrees? why mark over and under mark to fold?
you can either fold 90 degrees or fold all the pages to the same place (the top and bottom marks). The second method means all the angles will be different. Hope that helps

Always nice to have free patterns. Thank you.
I watched 5 seconds of this and I'm like fuck dis I'm out
Good video but music a bit off putting
Thanks for the input. I wish I could change it.
Ok
But it looks so hard! I give up!
Shamla's World it's easy once you start x

I hate folding books like that, it is very frustrating!
Am I only one who thinks it's a pity to destroy the book?!
ur not destroying it ur just folding it u can flatten out the pages to be used again anytime you want. destroying it would be to make it to where you couldn't read it ever again.

Little bit
who would be stupid enough to buy a piece of paper on Etsy for $1.99 I've seen one on Etsy for $5.99 even worse
people who don't have Photoshop are smart enough
Nice. Holded Fart.
Aishe Gossyp That's an inverted folded heart :)
How do you center the pattern ?
kathyb799 However many pages you have over what you need for the pattern, divide by two and start on that number page.
