      Nik, thank you for making another video like this. Because of videos like this one, I became a huge fan, not that I don't like your other videos also. Really enjoyed it!

    Loved watching you create these signatures. Love the old papers that someone wrote out things. I agree, these are papers that need to be kept. TFS and the inspiration!

    You deserve every one of the 100k and 100k more! You're one of my comfort CZcamsrs, and I love crafting along with your videos to keep me company.

    I could watch you make these for hours, and I love the same kinds of papers that you do! When I’m looking at old books, notebooks, etc., I’m always looking for that stuff that makes papers interesting. When you said you kept the papers from the E. A. Poe book because…, I thought you were going to say it was because it was E. A. Poe. ‘nuff said!

  • @hanolalaith11
    @hanolalaith11 Před rokem +1

    I have been resisting learning how to bind books for years. I just don't need another hobby. But then I found your channel, and I see all the little notes and things that you include in yours. I am the kind of person who will keep a handwritten grocery list that I find in the parking lot. And now I know what to do with them! So I'm still trying to complete some of my in-progress projects before I start, but I am inspired by your work! Thank you!

  • @joannewachel2505

You've inspired me.. ! Ty! The cover will be used for a memory junk journal with signatures made of anything & everything I can find. All the best to you and your wonderful creative subscribers x

    @SerialKilling Před rokem +1

    I JUST found you yesterday as I want to try my hand at making a junk journal. With all respect to other creators here, the couple I had been watching were so super positive and upbeat and, as I'm sure you tell by my username and content, I am of the darker variety. Your sense of humor and style of creating is exactly perfect. Subscribed and now binging. Thanks so much for this!

    I love everything you do, and your ideas are always excellent. I would love having access to that kind of old materials, but it is very scarce. As you mentioned...it's important to us... but the older generations did not think like we do. Thanks Nik, this was great! Makes me want to run to my stash!

    It's so great to see you back handling some paper and I love the aesthetic. I started making books about 5 years ago when I took your Carpetbagger Compendium course. I've been hooked on books and book structures ever since. I've made more than 100 books now and you were my inspiration so please keep on inspiring!

    • @NiktheBooksmith

  • @janinewoodhull3611
    @janinewoodhull3611 Před rokem +1

    Not boring! You asked about the direction of the lined paper you used. I like the lines to help my writing stay straight. But, I wouldn't mind turning the book to write sideways in order to use the lines. 😊
