Technique Tuesday!
I decided that I wanted to make a little accordian-style books with some of my background papers. In particular, I wanted to use what was left from the pink and fushia monoprinted paper. My first experiment didn’t work out too well, as you’ll see. I used a 1/2 inch paper punch and crocheted the pages together with an oversized hook. The crocheting went fine, but the holes were way too big!
My second attempt resorted to a standard office-style paper punch and a smaller hook. Much better! I trimmed the rectangles to get rid of the large holes, and cut two more pages out of another piece of background paper.
Very creative, and very pretty. Now if you could just slide them over a hardback novel…
Very pretty! I wonder if you could crochet in some notebook paper to make a journal (rather than an accordion book).
