All the holes will be threaded together. I used a section of stitched ribbon type stuff i forget the name to use to back the stitching on the outside of the spine of the book, this is so the stitching can be pulled tighter and it wont rip through the pages as easily.
Once I had stitched along the first signature i place the second one on top and clamped it in place and stitched it in the other direction. I forgot to take photos during this process. Using two lengths of wood I clamped the pages of the book as tight as I could, so when trimming them to size they don't move.
I forgot to take photos of the inserts on their own so this photo of them under the book will have to suffice. I printed the inserts on different types and colours of paper and card: thick paper, thin paper, thin card and coloured cards for the tickets.
The camel cigarette package was printed double sided onto white card, the front was printed with the cigarette label and the inside was a crumpled brown paper design so it looked like a used packet, i then crumpled the printout to make it look more used. The different inserts were then folded and unfolded and bent and scuffed to make them look like they had been used for a long time as book marks etc.
Some of the inserts are full pages just placed into the book some are full pages or maps glued or taped into the book. Stupidly i forgot to take any photos of this step. While i was making the cover i had placed the book pages under lots of heavy books to flatten it out and press some of the folded inserts down so it would look more used. I used some leather i purchased of Ebay, the seller said it was from an old sofa, so it was worn and scuffed which was perfect for the cover of the Diary.
I used thin plastic for the cover boards instead of cardboard but that doesn't make much difference. The two front cover boards were cut to just slightly larger than the page size of the diary. I then folded the leather in and glued the leather to the inside of the cover boards. The leather i used might have been a little too thick for what i needed and when folded over it was a tad too thick, but its the only leather I had.
Attaching the cover to the bound book was easy. I printed a sheet of marbled paper out to act as "flysheets" these are used to start and finish the book.
In the image above i glued the left side of the sheet to the inside of the book cover and the right hand side is glued to the last page of the book.
The front is done in the same way, the spine is not glued in and is left floating so it can move when opening the book.
Some of the art work on the pages needed a colour accent. So instead of doing it in the computer artwork i decided to add it after it was printed as i felt it would look better than a printed colour. I used some coloured pencils others use water colour paints but i wasn't sure how the water colour paint would react with the printed artwork. Once you have done all that make yourself a 10mm wide strap out of elastic and wrap it round your book to hold it closed or to act as a page mark and you are finished.
Hi just wondering if you could somehow send me the inserts including photographs of Indiana Jones and his father. Question 3 years ago on Introduction.

The book consists of 10 recreated pages matching the original prop including a genuine chapter extract and a copy of Ian Malcolm's autograph on the title page.
Perfect for any fan of the Jurassic Park franchise or movie fan. But the detailed, evocative etchings by Erik Desmazieres provide a perfect counterpoint to the visionary prose.
Like Borges, Desmazieres has created his own universe, his own definition of the meaning, topography and geography of the Library of Babel. Printed together, with the etchings reproduced in fine-line duotone, text and art unite to present an artist's book that belongs in the circle of Borges's sacrosanct Crimson Hexagon - "books smaller than natural books, books omnipotent, illustrated, and magical.
