My grandchildren love when I repurpose old books and make journals for them. It is worth its money. You can laminate the covers before you punch, it makes for a sturdier book.
My first thought was binding children's artwork!
Great idea! I threw away my kindergarten artwork because I didn't know what to do with all the loose sheets...
I have the original Cinch machine. When I was a youth leader Of 3 and 4 year olds at our church, I would make a little photo album with pictures of our activities that we did through out the year. I think the parents liked them just as much as the kids did and I enjoyed making them.
I want to make some recipe books, with all my favorite recipes, to give as Christmas gifts. You could also make a personalized coloring book. Just print our coloring sheets and bind them together.
I've had mine for years, you can make calendars, recipe books with tabs, notebooks with fabric covers.... I have a kind of ruler that tells you what size of binding wires you need! It's an amazing tool! 😊😊
@adriana_scrap What is the ruler called?
What's that ruler called?
I'm from Spain, and I bought mine in a store here. They call it "binding template." I'll give you the link of the one I have czcams.com/video/4HNaZCa6ZnU/video.htmlsi=8AqbcetAXnS75EHm
do you by chance know if I can cinch 1.5" 2:1 Pitch Twin Loop Wire? I'm not sure if it will fit but I don't see they sell that size.
What is the ruler called?
I have the mini cinch, but I have found it to be a great way to bind my kimberbelle instructions into their own little books and also for all to socialites blocks if you ever get more into quilting and want to get free designs that come out as a sew along for several weeks or other QAL’s or embroidery instructions.
SO RELIEVED I found your post! Now I know how to use my new toy!!
I’ve bound scoresheets for our favorite card game “65”. I give them as gifts and keep one for myself! When my high school class celebrated a reunion, I bound the booklets each classmate received. It was a wonderful keepsake!
My uncle gave me one of these when my aunt passed away and i had no idea what it was for…now i do and I’m super excited to try and make some cute notebooks with it ❤
Yay!!
I have had one for years. I have made notebooks and flip chats. This make me want to pull it out and create a new notebook. I use chip board with decorative paper glued down to give the notebook more stability. I love creating my own little notebooks to give as gifts
Yes! I totally bought some chipboard for this project and then didn't bring it out! I think it's great!
@@Bethadilly or @amandaschmidt2361 any kind of chipboard and would you use mod podge with the pattern paper? I'm so curious about this technique.
Maybe you could do that front and back covers at the same time, so they’d match perfectly and be oriented the way you want them.
I totally remember as a kid going with my mom to her work and playing with a binding thing like that and I would make little notebooks with different color paper. It’s kind of nostalgic for our generation maybe. Thanks for influencing yet another crafting gadget I must get. 😂
Awesome that you could figure out how to use it as a kid. When I was in school for design we had to do a project with binding like this and I failed horribly. The teachers called my notebook "dangerous and sloppy".
Thank you so much for this awesome tutorial. I’m getting my cinch in the mail tomorrow and I thought I better look at some tutorials before attempting to use it. Your tutorial is so informative. I hate reading directions! Probably because they’re so hard to understand. But watching someone else do it is so much easier to understand. So, thanks a bunch!
Thank you so much. I purchased a cinch, sold it and re-purchased it and have had it for two years in the box. I just made my first project thanks to this video
I so appreciate the comprehensive tutorial. You may want to try the Cinch chipboard and the WRM bookguide. The guide will help you measure a cover for any size chipboard and the chipboard as a cover can better protect the contents of a journal or book. Thanks again for your time. Its greatly appreciated
Thank you so much for this video. I have had my cinch for about 4 years now and have been too afraid to use it. After watching your video, I'm now excited to use it. I love all your videos, especially with your calming voice and patience. It relaxes me and helps me to enjoy crafting.
You are so welcome!
👍🙏🏽😚😚💙💙💙 totally agree 👍
Thank you for this awesome step by step illustration ❤
Love the details in explaining how to use the inch.
Yes Yes Yes ….. gonna definitely order one of these. I plan to make my own appointment books and journals.Thanks for sharing..!!
Very easy to follow, thanks for sharing!!!
Yes, I cannot wait to see more of it of new tool with you!!!! So many inspiring crafts!!!! You should do Scrapbooking too again!!!! I wanna see what you made before and with new ideas for the future!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤ i love the color you picked always in your craft room! So soothing colors and so elegant looking I love it ❤❤❤❤ Thanks for the inspiration always and most of all the Tutorials you do on your channel 💗
Still a newbie here!!!! Specifically cricuts stuff!!!!! 😊😊😊😊
Now I want one 🩷🤣 such a great machine!!
You always make such sweet and pretty things! Thank you for sharing your beautiful ideas! I used my cinch to make a home binder. I made policy envelopes from decorative paper and used them as the pages to store our important documents. Also covered chipboard with decorative paper to use for the front and back covers. 😊
Thank you for the great directions, I just got my machine and really appreciate the walk-through.
Great tool! I would like to have one. I would make a pocket journal for my niece for starters. Thanks!😊
Thanks to you I just made my first spiral notebook using the Cinch. An amazing machine with your excellent instructions. I look forward to what you will make with it again.
A December daily planner! Great as pre-Christmas gifts!
Thanks for sharing and the inspiration
Pretty notebook! I’ve had my cinch for a year now and have used it several times. Yes! Follow those instructions! I found it particularly important to press the spiral binding multiple times turning it slightly to get it closed nice and round rather than oval (slightly squashed!). Hopefully that helps anyone who struggles with that part!
Good idea! I made sure my opening was pressed toward the back and then I felt it pressed circular!
😅w
Great demonstration! I hope you will share other projects and tutorials… photo albums, scrapbooks, etc! ❤
This was so interesting. I love journals and notebooks. It would be fun to make my own, for sure. Plus the machine is pink.
What a neat little machine
Great video!! Thank you!
I love how easy yo make the projects. I would love to see what else you make with the cinch. I haven't used mine but today I'm gonna try to make a notebook, but while watching you I thought about making sketch notebook for my grandkids. The prices have gone wild with just blank pages..so you just gave me a great idea!!
Love this machine will buy one
That's pretty neat and looks pretty easy to use. That would be a lot of fun to do all kinds of things with. I like taking pictures of projects that I have made. I could make my own book of them instead of paying to have one made.
awesome video! your a greater teacher!
I’ve had this machine for a few years now, and always get in a pickle with it. I don’t think I will anymore so thank you for the detailed instructions
Glad I could help!
Love this! Your instructions are amazing and encouraging! I have a weakness for pretty notebooks, journals , and scrapbooks. I think I need this! Love the new series of Tuesday tools, back to basics and a sprinkling of card creations! You give us do much inspiration and kindness! Thanks for the hardwork!
Thank you so much!
I love using mine… I always make little note books too.
You are so talented! And have a way of making things seem possible😂😂😂
Thanks for showing us!❤
Oh thanks! This was intimidating, then easy once I got the hang of it!
I have wanted one of these for a while but was never too sure how it all worked - thank you so much for sharing.
Glad I could help!
I love my cinch. It’s amazing love your tutorials 🥰🌸 you can use digital papers print them off with a computer and laminate them to make for journal covers or book covers or just design your own covers in canva 😊
I bought this machine because I really wanted to buy some things, and plus my grandchildren. Also want to do that as well. I seen a video that they had on Amazon and I was like oh that looks easy. But when I got it home, it was a different story. You have the best video out there. And you explain it so well I am now making them with no problem at all. Thank you so much for your great video. It was extremely helpful.! Also love that you painted your fingernails the same color as the pink. Great touch.!
I find it to be a little intimidating of a machine, so I am glad this video helped you!
I just got my Cinch for our homeschooling curriculum and was so overwhelmed! I am not crafty by any means. This video was awesome and so helpful! Thank you!
I'm so glad!
I was so intimidated by this and never used mine but not anymore THANKS Bethany 😮we love Pink 💐
Pink for the win!
I think it would be great for recipes!
Definitely!!
Looks like a fun machine. I may have to add one to my craft room eventually one day. It seems like it could be a fun way to create a junk journal. I can't wait to see what else you create with it.
It really is! You'll love it!
Lovely video as always. Just a small tip, though I am sure you have figured that out already, you can punch a lot of pages at once and I punch all of the pages for the first half of the page, then adjust the machine and do the second half. It is so easy because they have figured it all out for you so the holes all line up. I had bunch of painting books that were bound. I unbound them and made them spiral so I could make the pages lay flat when I was doing a project. I have not done anything in a while-you have inspired me to make some little notebooks for my grand daughter.
That's a great idea!
I love my cinch!!! So excited to see a pink one 💗. I love to purchase printable planner pages and bind them into a customized planner… I get to choose the cover and all of the calendar and planner pages that are functional for me. I also print and bind all of our homeschool curriculum for my kiddos!
I make mini notebooks but use the mini cinch. I have both cinches. I cover chipboard for my covers.
This is just what I needed to see. I was debating whether to purchase the Cinch, but it looked very difficult to use. Thank you for your video because it's not hard at all, I'm getting one for sure.
Honestly, it look so intimidating...but if you just slow down and take your time, you totally got this!
My god this is a great machine this make such a good book this company made so much great machine for all kind of project it is so interesting that you present and explain it and show us all the beautiful things that we can do great video 😊
I have an older version and I haven’t tried it. You inspired me to give it a try.
Girl, get it out of the box! You've got this!
A homeschool planner!!!! ❤❤❤
Great idea!
I've been wanting one of these for over a year now, and every video I've seen on it has made it seem SO overwhelming. The way you broke it down was so easy to follow...so now, I obviously have to get one. 😂😂
Oh I am so glad because for a minute, I was so confused by it! Glad this helped you!
Recipe book of favorite family recipes for Christmas or wedding gift. Prayer journal. Junk journal. Teacher gift.
Love your videos & how you expain everything, your very talented & share that talent & inspire me to try things..ive only recently found your video's and have been binge watching. Thank you for teaching so well. And love your craft space as well, sooo pretty
Thank you so much!
Thanks!
Thanks so much, Denise!
Great video
I want a cinch machine so bad!!!
Very nice 😊
Thank you!
I’ve been thinking about purchasing one of these to see if I can bound my quilting books.
It would be perfect for that!
I haven’t read the other comments, but the first thing that came to my mind was a family cookbook. 😊
You could do a planner!
😊❤❤❤ VERY relaxing to listen to you😊 Merci 😚💙💙💙👍🌹🌬️🩵👍
Now I have to get one. Lol
You can make calendars also. Cheers from 🇨🇦Calgary, Alberta🇨🇦
Bethany,where did you get your desk.I’m shopping around but I need something with a lot of drawers like yours.I’m glad you showed how to work that Cinch,you make everything look so easy,and girl you’ve got patience galore.
It was custom designed through IKEA, then my husband built it. :)
@@Bethadilly it’s so hard to find desk now that have a lot of drawers, looks like I’ll be keeping old faithful, it’s very old but it does have the drawer space.You’re very fortunate to you have a handy husband, they’re rare these days.
Waiting for mine to come tomorow, bit worried it will be too complicated for me so not excited yet lol
I have the mini cinch and yet to take it out 🤦🏻♀️ but call me inspired!! I’m gonna give it a go
@@Bethadilly of course! I’ve had the mini cinch for over a year just sitting in my closet
Your video inspired me to take it out and give it a go :)
@@simeenbatra6882 ooops! That comment was supposed to be a reply to someone else, ha ha! I must need more coffee today, disregard! :)
@@Bethadilly lol you need that mama juice!
Will this Cinch Machine punch holes in the chipboard for the covers?
Do you know if you could laminate the paper first then punch the holes? Lamination just for the front and back to be more sturdy.
I would think you definitely could, that's a great idea.
You absolutely can laminate the front and back! I do that for my kids homeschool curriculum. This machine can even punch through chipboard.
@@Stacey.Hamrick awesome! Thank you so much. My plan is to create a bill book. List out our monthly bills and due dates for each month
I sooooo need one of these.
Can you tell me What weight paper you used for the notebook.
Just fabulous ❤️
Oh, for this notebook I was just testing the machine so I went with some cheap printer paper. But now that I know how to use it, I would use better paper! :)
What type of paper did you use?
I always thought this and the cricut were the same, are they not?
🤗❤️👍🏼
It would be great if you could let us know the next item and we can unbox and learn together???
While I love the idea of that, I don't want to recommend product until I have had a chance to use and test it myself. And because unboxing videos are in real time, with honest reactions and first time learning, I don't want to encourage purchases until I know I love the product.
Why were you aligning the 2nd hole and not the last one? Bit confused lol, my cinch is comming tomorow
Hi i cannot seem to find this pink one any where can you please help many thanks x
Where is the paper from?
Hi, how much inches from the left side of the paper untill end of the gaps? I mean, I want to design something on computer but I have to know where the gaps would be, so my design fits perfectly. Hope you’ll answer🙏🏻
iam new sub geting one as will coming soon thanks pam
Hi Bethany
Would you cut the metal before if you were making a smaller book? Like would you be able to use the one metal part to make two books. I hope that makes sense.
Are you talking about the metal binding?
Yes thanks, I wasn’t sure what it was called. Do you need one for each book or can you make smaller books by cutting it into 2
@@jennifersantistevan7673 Yes, depending on the amount you have left over and the size of your next project, you could make another!
Can I smaller books or do I need to buy the mini cinch for that?
It can do smaller books as well, remember that page when it talks about all the sizes?
Recipe book!
what is the name of the hard material for front notebook?
Make a calendar
Hi ! Can you please tell me what kind of new watch you are wearing ?
It's a Garmin. :)
@@Bethadilly Thank you Bethany! I just also would like to let you know how much you have insprired me to try more with my cricut .Also! I am going to try my hand at machine embroidery because of you. I saw when you were doing applique on your children's shirts how much I would love to try it. I went with the Brother Persona PRS100. The company I bought it from recommended it becauseof the amount of items it came with. To me it is now overwhelming. Just a thought... and maybe more viewers would like to see you embroider more. Thank you for all the your time you have givin to us .
Cook book
Prayer Diary
Great video but please can someone tell me which number of the size is the spiral? I have chinch but my spiral Is small and I don't know how to fix it... Any thoughts? 😢😢😢😢
Thank you so much, lol and I definitely did over think the instruction. This was the best video that I have found. Thank you again!
Does anyone know if spirals can be used instead of the rings?? I hope I made sense, my English is not perfect 😅
