I can’t think of a better way to honor the history and love of an old Bible than to turn it into art. I have a family Bible that belonged to my great grandmother. It lies in a box. How awesome it would be to turn it into artwork that would encourage stories about her and our family history.
I'm about to start one of these projects because I saw one video of some one showing the results and I really like it, so I didn't know I was going to be able to find tutorials so in my mind the part where you cut the page I thought solving the problem folding one page to to the top part of the letter and the following page to to form the lower part etc...
I admire you and this type of tutorial = my son thinks it's a bit taxing - but everything I really get excited about , I find that it is always detailed - but I enjoy the learning process --- thank you for your time in doing this for us all !!!
How do you make sure that the design doesn't look too stretched when it's done? Is there a way to visualize the dimensions of the end results. Example: Let's say I want to design a heart. How do I make sure that the heart isn't too wide so that the shape gets too distorted? Thank you so much for this great video!
Hey Eagle! Cutting the pages does bring more depth but it takes a long time. If I was to do it all again I would just fold alternative pages like I did with the 'o', 'v' & 'e'. Thanks for the comment. Have a great day!
I your tutorial was great but I'm not computer literate to make a pattern. Can you tell me a good place to find free patterns I Google it and it always brings me to Pinterest but then the patterns are not free. Thank you in advance
Hi Love Learnin, This was the first time that I had tried it. There are other on TH-cam that supply patterns with their videos. Just look for book folding on TH-cam. I hope that this helps!
Hi Tara, I just a scan of a lined A4 page. I am sure you can find something online if you do not have a scanner! Thank you for your comment! Have a great day
Could you please put a link to free images of the word Nan pls I’m making my Nan a book fold for her b day but I have no money to afford a book fold thing of Amazon, and I don’t know anyone with a computer or printer :(
Hi Tabitha, Thank you for your comment. The word Love is written in a font called 'A L Libretto'. I searched google for the best book folding fonts and it happened to be the first one. I hope that this helps. Be blessed!
Hi Hareem, The 640 comes from the number of pages that you have in the book and that you want to use for your design. I hope that this help! Thank you for your comment.
Hi Diego, all of the folding took me about 3 days but that includes all the filming too. If I was to do it all again I think I could have all of the folding done in a day.

Hi Abby, Thank you for your comment. I have used a bible for my book folding project. I could not think of a better way to show people that His Love is within the pages. I hope that you are being richly blessed during this season!
Beautiful artwork but it breaks my heart that you have used (and cut up) the Word of God...It is meant to be read and lived in honour of Its Author, God. the Rev'd Dr. Margo MacDougall
Hey Nathab, Thank you for your comment. Yes, I have used a bible for my book folding project. I could not think of a better way to show people that Love is within the pages. Be richly blessed!
That looks cool, But like out of all the types of books to use u decided to use a Bible? For crying out sake its a Holy Bible you are cutting up and making art you could have used another type of book.

Shea, you have made my day.
You have got hold of my intention for the piece completely!
Be richly blessed.

Thank you so much for this great video!
Because he does it according to how many pages are in the book
Podría subir como hacer la plantilla de fondo. No se hacerla. Gracias
Wow looks amazing but lots of work lol
Thanks for sharing. Fantastic video. It would have never occurred to me to cut the pages!

Thanks for the comment. Have a great day!
What software did you use
I your tutorial was great but I'm not computer literate to make a pattern. Can you tell me a good place to find free patterns I Google it and it always brings me to Pinterest but then the patterns are not free. Thank you in advance

Thank you for your kind comment John. I am glad that you enjoyed it!
Do you have step by step instructions on how to make the lined template? Are you using Photoshop?
Hi Tara,
I just a scan of a lined A4 page. I am sure you can find something online if you do not have a scanner!
Thank you for your comment!
Have a great day
Also, (and if my memory serves me) I am using Affinity photo.
@@OurHomeWorkshop Is that an Adobe Program? Thanks so much how cool!
Hi@@dawndunn122 , if my memory serves I was using a product called Affinity Photo. I hope that this helps!
Yes I was wondering if I could use Photoshop.
hello, I am interested in book folding..how do I get that prints
Could you please put a link to free images of the word Nan pls I’m making my Nan a book fold for her b day but I have no money to afford a book fold thing of Amazon, and I don’t know anyone with a computer or printer :(
where do you get template?
Hi Tabitha,
Thank you for your comment.
The word Love is written in a font called 'A L Libretto'. I searched google for the best book folding fonts and it happened to be the first one.
I hope that this helps.
Be blessed!
Where are you? Can't find any more videos! The ones I found are so exciting!
Thanks Camille your comment is really inspiring. My day job has dragged me away from videos for the moment but hope to be back with you all soon!
@@OurHomeWorkshop I'll be waiting'
Don't cut the Bible it's a big sin he would pay for this from the god
how do you determine how much to stretch it to? like you stretched it to 640 lines, how do you determine that?
Hi Hareem, The 640 comes from the number of pages that you have in the book and that you want to use for your design. I hope that this help! Thank you for your comment.
What site do use for the note book template
Hi there, I just used a scan of some a4 lined paper but I am sure with a quick google search you can find a suitable alternative. Have fun!
Its very shameless u r using holybible for dis craft. So many people they dont have to buy bible.
Hi. Nice video. How long did you were folding the book?
Hi Diego, all of the folding took me about 3 days but that includes all the filming too. If I was to do it all again I think I could have all of the folding done in a day.
@@OurHomeWorkshop oh and how did you make the lines? is there any tutorial that explain how to make them?
Hi@@diegorangel4918, I just used a scan of some A4 lined paper and then used that as the background in the image software. I hope that this helps!
@@OurHomeWorkshop okok thanks.

You shouldn't do that to the bible
Hi Abby,
Thank you for your comment.
I have used a bible for my book folding project. I could not think of a better way to show people that His Love is within the pages.

No speak english, shit, but good video👍
