Welcome to Spellbound Book Art, where graphic design meets book folding!
Unique, bespoke hand folded book sculptures for any occasion, custom designed and handmade in the UK.
Spellbound Book Art breathes new life into pre-loved and unwanted books by rescuing them from dusty bookshelves and second-hand shops, and sprinkling magic onto them to create beautiful, customised folded book sculptures that will leave everyone spellbound! Subject to suitability, I may also be able to use your own book or a specific title of your choosing.
Either way, every book is treated with the utmost respect. No paper or text is ever removed from the pages, which means that each book remains completely legible should you ever feel the urge to unfold and read it!

EXCLUSIVE TO SPELLBOUND BOOK ART
An exclusive ‘Made For Purpose’ book, designed and written by Spellbound Book Art
Along with the pre-loved book options, I have introduced my very own unique made-for-purpose book, which I designed and wrote exclusively for those who prefer to keep their 'reading books' and their 'folded books' separate! It contains a short story about its own origins, narrated by itself, to show you how happy it is to get the opportunity to fold your own story into its very pages! Click here for more information.
I use my made-for-purpose books by default for the majority of my book folding projects, but you are of course free to request a pre-loved one or your own specific title if you prefer.

Graphic Design Meets Book Folding!
If you’re looking for a unique, custom designed, handmade gift for a wedding, anniversary, Christening, graduation, birthday, memorial tribute, family or pet portrait, or something to celebrate your hobbies, interests or favourite bands, TV shows, movies or places, Spellbound Book Art can design and make something special to meet all your requirements!
Each Spellbound Book Art folded book sculpture is 100% hand crafted, beginning with the creation of a completely bespoke design based around your ideas and requirements. A book folding pattern is then manually created using this artwork (which is tailored to fit perfectly within each book), followed by the meticulous hand-folding of every page. Not only does this ensure a high quality book sculpture every time, it also gives me the freedom to offer completely bespoke designs for any occasion!
Each Spellbound Book Art book sculpture is beautifully packaged into a presentation box, ready to give as a gift to someone special... yourself included! Book sculptures made using your own book choice are usually left with the original cover exposed, unless otherwise requested.
