    Please note, I did not provide measurements in the video since they depend on several variables that will be different for each book.
    What you'll need:
    • Inkjet Printer (ideally 4 colours or more)
    • Guillotine or sharp cutter & ruler
    • Double sided inkjet paper (thickness depends on the length of the book, for longer books use thinner paper, for shorter books, less than 40 pages, you can use thicker paper)
    • 2mm greyboard
    • Book cloth with paper backing
    • Double sided self-adhesive sheet or PVA glue
    • Heavy duty stapler
    • Headband and vellum paper for decoration
    • Coloured Card for the endsheets

    I see you stapled/stab binded mostly one way...and then added 4 staples the other way. Did you do this and determine where to do these other staples based on gaps when you turned the pages ... or ? THANK YOU!

    Hello I have watched so many of your videos my head is spinning! They are simply wonderful. I need some advice and you seem to be the right person to ask. I am making a photo book to be given out at my funeral (Yes I am making my own funeral arrangements) - so I will need about a dozen copies. What I was thinking of doing is a traditional layout on paper because there will be lots of text - then to scan each page and then to send the whole lot out to be printed. I have no idea how to go about this. I live in Canada. Thank you in advance!

      Hi, I would edit the text in the photo book editor like Blurb, they are good with text. Will look better than scans.

    Hi, lovely video and thank you so much for this!! I absolutely love it. If I do use 200+ gsm paper, how many pages can I use? I’m thinking of making a photo book with only 20 pages or so, so I’m curious if I could use a thicker paper with that
    Thank you!

    • @PhotoBookGuru
      @PhotoBookGuru  Před 6 měsíci +1

      it depends how you bind it. if you side staple it, it will be hard to page but 20 pages is 10 sheets, so should be okay.

    Can I use the ordinary double sided adhesive tape in place of double sided adhesive sheet? Are they the same?

    • @PhotoBookGuru
      @PhotoBookGuru  Před 9 měsíci +1

      You could but you have to cover the whole sheet and make sure it sticks really well
