How long does it take to carve a book?

No more than enough to read it! The more you read, the faster you read and the same for folding / cutting. A few hours are enough but, obviously, the more the book has pages, the more the motive is complicated, the longer it is! But once you have started, you will see your motive take shape, you will be impatient to go to the end ... Suspense guaranteed! Let's say, from 3 to 20 hours depending on the pattern and your dexterity ;-)

No ! The original idea is to recycle books. They have been read, manipulated and sometimes have defects that are visible in the photos. BUT... If you wish, you can place an order on a new book (the price and deadlines will be modified).
