Sunday May 4, 2025 Mini Book Folding Workshop

Taught by Jenny, this 2 hour workshop will be from 10am-12pm.

Let's fold as many books as we can in 2 hours!
I can show you how to make a cardboard cover if you all want.
If you want to stop folding & start filling, go for it.

I find book folding to be an easy thing to do with my hands that can tamp down on anxiety. It doesn't require a lot of thought, feels productive, & keeps my hands busy. I would fold a "hidden book" (made with a letter sized sheet of paper) to take notes in before every meeting at school, whether it was with one other person or a large group. Because the books were usually small, I also couldn't put too many ideas on one page, so it was easier to find things.

Use them to take notes, make lists, make zines, draw, paint & so much more!

Just so you have an idea:

The square-ish book is 11.5" x 11" watercolor paper & book pages are 2 5/8" x 2 7/8"

The watercolored paper is 5.5" x 4" mineral paper & book pages are 1" x 1 3/8"

The book in the video is 5 7/8" x 8 1/4" drawing paper & book pages are 1.5" x 2"
