Tiny boxes

Created today for the smallest gallery exhibition.
All artworks must be 3cm cubed or smaller.
I was part of last year's event (I made 9 tiny books), and it was enchanting. I was so inspired by other artists' work, so this year I'm taking a little time to make a few different works.
These cubes are between .4 and 1.5 cm each.
they are made from the pages of a Little Golden Book of Paddington Bear. The complexity of the watercolour illustrations look great abstracted in "tiny"

Accordion with boxes 2

Added belly band (see last week's pix here).
Covered boxes inside and top with a map of Vienna.
Still not happy that it's done. 
I'm thinking some beads or some extra pages. I imagine like usual the answer will come when I least expect it!

Accordion with boxes

Two small boxes I've hoarded for a year.
Some encaustic treated paper.
A few diamante brads.
Voila stage 1 of this accordion/ concertina book.
Now to make books to go inside the boxes.
