Carolina Martinez-Marin made this single sheet book called “South London, from a Plane going back Home (Reconstruction)” She uses both sides of the paper for her digitally altered images. She says her “pamphlet book … illustrates a place visited by only the mechanisms of memory.” Found here.
Last year at the Oak Knoll Book Fest, I met the 2 women who run the Virginia Commonwealth University book arts program. I noticed recently a nice blog post about some of their library book arts holdings. Here are just 2 (see them all here).
Alisa Banks’s Edges (“Edges” is part of a series of altered books that feature hair crocheted onto the edges of the books’ pages.)
Scott McCarney’s “Diderot/Doubleday/Deconstruction. Volume IV” (created … by carving a 20th-century Doubleday Encyclopedia to reveal images of workers representing the book trades from Diderot’s 18th-century “L’Encyclopédie.”)
Cecilia Sharpley has a turkish map fold book that, because of the way the folds work, is appropriately named “Kimono Book.” I really like the second, top shot. See all her books here.
After finding a corner miter tool for sale on-line the other day, I stumbled upon 2 DIY miter tool instructions. The first one from here

and then this one (it’s in Spanish but mostly in pictures)
Occasionally I have a planner, calendar or notebook that is a one-off that I’ve listed at a discount. This one is a 3+ year monthly calendar. starts November 1, 2015 and ends December 31, 2018. There are 30 pages of lined notepaper following the calendars. And finally there’s a bonus envelope at the back to store receipts, postcards, mementos… It’s $17 + $4 shipping (normally $23 + shipping). See it here.
