Book art turns hardcover books into bold and sophisticated art pieces. Sometimes called 'Book Origami', book folding can be a surprisingly easy and peaceful form of meditation. Following simple patterns, anyone can create beautiful and unique gifts for loved ones that work fabulously as home decor. The actual book folding patterns were once difficult to find - until now! Simply add your images, shapes, and loved ones' names into the Book Folding Pattern Maker, and generate a pattern in seconds. All of your Measure, Mark, Fold (MMF) patterns are stored conveniently in your documents folder for easy access. For the advanced book folders, don't worry; cut and fold patterns are coming soon! ;)
Just tap 'Create document' and enter a few details about the book you would like to fold. Measure, Mark, Fold patterns work best with solid images and shapes that aren't overly detailed; hearts and names are perfect! Check the preview to make sure the pattern was generated appropriately; if necessary, try adding or removing white spaces around your shape to adjust the aspect ratio. Then follow the basic MMF pattern: measure the distance from the top of the page and mark the respective 'start mark' and 'end mark.' You may use inches or centimeters, just stay consistent with whichever unit you used to generate the pattern. Then at each mark, make your creases and fold the corners of the page inward. Then - that's it! Keep folding until you reach the end of the pattern. One of the most enjoyable feelings is watching the pattern take shape, page by page.
Soon enough you'll have wonderful, thoughtful, and unique gifts about which people can't help but remark. Well? Let's get folding!
