Print-At-Home Zine

You want a small, easy to manufacture zine you can make yourself? Great!

Here's how you do it!

Step 1: Save the 2 images below to your desktop.

Step 2: Print them back to back on one sheet of paper. That's double-sided printing, y'all!

Step 3: Fold the final printed paper into quarters. Feel free to use the handy-dandy fold lines already on the page! If you done did it correctly, all of the drawings should be right side up. 

Step 4: You're going to need a pair of scissors (get your parents' help!) to carefully cut the top two folds, so you have eight individual pages!

Step 5: Staple the pages together in the center of the crease between the 4th and 5th page!

Boom shaka laka! - You Just Zined Yourself!







Technical notes: The above images are scanned in at 300 dpi resolution. They're not going to look as spiffy as the originals, but remember, it's free! Also, the images are provided for the free zine activity only. Don't take one of these images and stick it on a t-shirt or a throw pillow or a pair of pasties without asking me first. Pretty please?! Thanks!


 ALSO: Please send me pictures of your finished zines! I'd love to see what configurations you get, putting what panels as the front, back, etcetera. I certainly had a plan when I started it, but you can get a few different permutations with this setup. Which drawing is your favorite? Why? LET ME KNOW!
