Book Arts Mania: Two More Simple Reversed Piano Hinge Books

 "Not every act of art creates something special, but it creates something. It is the act of art that is important, not the result." Michael L. Goodman


I like the reversed piano hinge binding very much. I have been experimenting with different weights of paper for the accordion folded hinge. Stiffer paper cracks along the fold. For this book, I used decorated tape to cover the mountain fold sides of the accordion strip. I think the tape makes a nice-looking spine.  I cut some circles and stripes on the inner hinge and made the signature lock with leftover cover paper.







This little book was quick and easy.
