pink iridescent mini book
2¼"w x 2¼"h x 2½" thick
300 sheets or 600 pages counting front & back
made from pink granite paper (24 lb.), cotton thread (with coptic stitch binding) and elastic; cover is made from a recycled gift bag, binder board and pink granite paper (on inside cover)
the elastic used for this project was originally white, so i soaked it in 1 part rose blush acrylic paint and 2 parts water for about 3-4 hours... when it was completely dry, i stretched the elastic to get rid of any stiffness; the white cotton thread used for the binding was soaked in 1 part rose blush acrylic paint and 2 parts water for about 3-4 hours... when it was completely dry, i waxed the thread with beeswax
