On My Bookshelf


This week's book is a new book to my collection. Playing with Paper: Illuminating, Engineering, and Reimagining Paper Art by Helen Hiebert.

The book is divided into three sections: Getting Started (Techniques), Projects (18 separate projects), and a Gallery. The book provides templates for all of the book's projects. The projects cover all ranges of techniques, materials, and difficulty.

There are several projects that I want to try and the first will be the piano hinge project shown below. There are plenty of illustrations and pictures to guide you along the way for every project. The projects range from mini-projects to very, very large projects.


I recommend this book for all book artists and paper artists.
