Well after I kept seeing posts on a FB group about book folding I had a go. But I didn't use a book. I recycled 2 xmas catologues from Asda,lol.

I made this for my neighbour for her bday today. She absolutely loved it. Not my cup of tea but knew it would be hers.

Good job Jo. I used to love doing these. That's a very different kind of Christmas tree.

Love it, Jo - and yes, it is right up my street! Haven't done any book folding myself, but appreciate the things I see and two other friends of mine have done it - one did a really cute hedgehog. I'm not surprised your neighbour loved it.

Sorry I missed this when you put it up.
I love it, Love the decorations on it.
I did one last year ( was going to be for my SSanta) but then wasn't sure they would like it cos non of my lot did, they are good at giving me doubts, so I had it up here in my craft area. I used a small local phone directory.
