This piece is made by folding many, many pages of a book at a specific measurement to form letters, numbers, and characters.
This book is made up of a birth date, with the numbers being separated by baby feet, creating an amazing and unique gift for any newborn baby. What separates this from other book folding sculptures, is that is also bound and covered in a beautiful, handmade Japanese paper in any colour choice you would like, and entitled with "The Adventures of.... "Given Name" and birth date. Its finished with a small origami heart on the cover. Perfect for the beginning life of any newborn baby!
This is an amazing way to give old books a new life, a perfect gift for book lovers. The books run anywhere from 8 to 10 inches, with the width depending on how many characters are needed for the date. I choose the books carefully, trying to find books that are appropriate to the occasion, this one is a book of classic English literature.
Every piece is meticulously crafted (with love!), so please allow 1 to 2 weeks to create a true masterpiece! It will be carefully packed and shipped to arrive at its destination in a timely and safe manner.
Please leave the date you wish to be folded in the checkout message area, with the baby's name and your colour preferences for the cover. If there are any specific details you would like, please feel free to contact me to see if we can make it happen!
I am located in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada at the Hamilton Farmer's Market, where I've had a business creating personalized paper and paint creations for over 5 years. I love what I do and appreciate you stopping by to see my work!
