Another book folding origami tutorial

Its book folding Wednesday and I have another tutorial for you. I found a lovely store that sells books for $1! Its great especially since I make so many book folding tutorials and I did run out of book to use from my personal library. So if you don’t have any books to use for your book folding try to find a local store or even a library that sells their used books. I know that my local library at times sell brand new books at time for only .25 cents! You can’t go wrong with that, right?!

The first thing I usually do is remove the cover of the book, and then I made to marks with pen equally apart. The reason for making the mark on the pages is to know where to make the fold. You want to make sure they are all folded the same exact way.
The first fold you fold the page up followed by the next 19 pages, and then you do the same thing the opposite fold with the next 20 pages.
You will continue to do this until you reach the end of the book. The book I used has about 450 pages and it was paperback. I think the fold might have looked a little bit better if it was hardcover at times it’s hard to figure out if a fold would book better 360 degrees or lying flat.  What is your favorite book fold so far or maybe you want to see something? Let me know. 
Stay Crafty,

Loren
