Originally the velvet in hard image cases was debossed by heating a metal engraved design (like the sort of tools used to deboss designs in leather bookbinding) that has a thin layer of wax on it. The heated die gives a much better impression and the wax gives great detail to it.
My grandmother was divorced from my grandfather who left my grandma and mother when my mom was 2. But, later, he kept sending his picture to my grandma. Of course, she burned them. So.. he sent her one on tin. It had a case just like the one you showed.
Just thought that l'd share some of our dysfunctional familys past.
LOL 🙋♀️
It turned out really nice. Good jobby job!
What kind of mind game is that? I left you, but don't forget me? 🤔😄

Lol.. l know.. right? Sicilian...
Well, that’s going to take some “Man-splaining”!
Good idea.
I think it looks a hundred times better than “pretty good”. I love your attention to detail. This is an awesome project!
This is super cool! I purchased from an Estate Sale Daguerreotypes, Ambrotypes and tintypes in Union Cases with the majority in pristine condition! I have been selling them in my Etsy Shop! I am keeping the damaged ones to repair and use in journals! This process video will help me repair them and create cases for the tintypes I have without cases!
I love this idea! Your attention to detail has always been over the top but I think you even outdid yourself on this one. Wonderful video.
Really enjoyed watching you create this sweet little case, even at 3 am.
I am dating myself with this comment. Back in the day on the Carol Rival show one her het repeating presenters would stamp on velvet just like you did. I had flash backs and then was so sad at the wonderful people we have lost. I love today's project. You are inspired and inspiring.
Perfect timing. I just got home from a trip to clean out my childhood home. I have a bunch of wonderful old pictures, what fun this will be...and what unique Christmas gifts these will make. Priceless memories!
Oh.... My....goodness.....! I have a lot of family Daguerreotypes that I would love to do this with! Thank you so very much for sharing! Much love to you! Another fabulous video! 🌼
Sweet Project, Thank you for sharing🥰❤️
Nick, i absolutely loved that project. You clever lady. Really love your work. Always such neat, creative and beautiful creations. X
WOW!!! This is CRAZY COOL! Cannot believe you made this. Although, you always made the most amazing projects. I've GOT to try this someday. What a gorgeous piece. Definitely looks very authentic. Nice details. Fantastic job! Thx for sharing this video.

You always make the most interesting things! So very cool!🦌💌❤️📚
This is so interesting… when I was a child we had many of these photos in our family. My mother still has a few.
I always enjoy seeing your project and wanted to say how much I appreciate your attention to detail. Details are too often overlooked.
thank you
I love creating but can honestly say that watching YOU create is just as enjoyable!!!
Amazing little treasure Nik! You are so talented! Honestly! Thank you for showing us how we could attempt to make this too. I just love this!
As always, your work is awesome!! And your choice of music 🎶 for the background is tres cool 😎
You create the most interesting things that I would look at the original and say, “How in the world would someone go about making that?”
WOW, such a beautiful job! I've always loved these Daguerreotype cases and photographs. During the video when you were putting the oval over the photo and you used the strips around the oval insert, the originals sometimes had a gold metal border. As I was sitting here watching, I was thinking, now where could I get some very narrow gold embossed metal strips. Then I had a "light bulb" moment and thought, now where have I seen something similar. Then it hit me. You know in the wedding section of most hobby-craft stores, you can buy a bag of the gold wedding ring favors. They have the same looking embossed texture, width and color of the strips on the original daguerreotypes. So I went to my stash and found mine and as you were talking, I gently straightened out one of the wedding ring favors and OMG, they would work perfectly! It takes a few minutes and you'd have to use a few, they can easily be cut to size with nippers and smoothed out on the ends where they are cut, but I think that would make your project even more authentic looking. But I have to say, you REALLY nailed the look with yours. Just BEAUTIFUL! Thanks so much for sharing with us!
I’ll swear lady you are the best this is phenomenal i’ve been watching you for years I love your channel but I’ll have to say this is the best thing I’ve ever seen
Fantastic. Love when you put on your construction hat.
This is so cool Nik, love it
Lovely little photo case. Great video too!
We have the annoying cars that race past where the boy racer is trying to prove how manly he is. In a video a while back you apologised for an obnoxious truck. Now when a car goes past and it’s super noisy I call them obnoxious. Fits perfectly 🤓
You got a subscribe and a bell, just for the "loud car" conversation alone! 🤣You channel is wonderful.
This is so cool, Nik! The detail you put into it. Perfection! 😍
You have the greatest ideas. This is adorable. 🥰💖🌸🌺
FANTASTIC as usual.

Amazing idea!

Beautiful! You are so talented
This is an awesome project!
Brilliant! Love watching you work this sweet little case. I’d never heard of Daguerreotypes before so I’ve learned something new. I have inherited an album of old family photos, some early tin plate ones. Some would look good displayed in this little case. Thanks!
I love all your work, Nik. I just saw a mini accordion sketch book. Big or little, would you consider showing us how to make one?
absolutely IMPRESSIVE!!!! You are a Goddess. I am not worthy. Very IMPRESSIVE!!
this was absolutely amazing to watch - i have never seen this type of case - so i enjoyed learning about it as well as seeing how you created it - thank you Nik for sharing this with us - it truly looks beautiful and i cannot wait to see your next mystery video - be well 🤗

We have one of my great great grandmother. My mom looks quite a bit like her. All of the decorations and trimming you noted are included with the case. Thanks for sharing this project!
Amazing as everything else you have made!!!
Awesome project! I really enjoyed this video! Yours turned out fantastic!❤️
Love the music. Grooovy!
WOW Nik you are super creative I love how this looks and would love to try it - one day - LOL now Im looing forward to your next crime-video. Hugs 😍 Thanks for the freebie.
That is a fabulous project! I wish I had the patience to make it. So cool!
So clever!!
Oh, this is so clever! Your attention to detail is perfection. Seriously--that felt is Next Level, but it also gave me flashbacks of all those bone boxes I did. I, too, have access to A LOT of felt. Ha! Can't wait for the new journal--SQUEEEEE!!! 🙂
rut roh...felt, its the gateway craft supply! ha! thanks, Hal =)
Hi Nik,👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻 now this was great, I just sold a bunch of these a few months back. My mom had them. I think they are so cool. I do still have some that are in tack. And a few only have one half. I’d love to try and make one sometime. Can’t wait for the mystery video. I’ve been watching a few myself. See ya next time. Bye bye
So brilliant! :)
wow this is so cool I have a Daguerreotype that is of a relative from my mom's side of the family thanks for sharing take care stay safe
Hey girl hey 👋 You’re a Nik of all trades. Beautiful treasure and so authentic ⭐️ I hope you’re doing well and that you’re having a great weekend ☀️
Hello Therese! 🤗
Great tutorial!
Love this!❤️❤️❤️
Perfectly timed, I'm playing with making faux daguerreotype atm
Awesome Nik, I just love watching your attention to the details. But I got another idea as well after watching this video. I pray that you are doing well. Take care young lady and God bless you and yours. Sincerely Becky B from Arkansas
Firstly, you are very funny and you make me laugh 🤣🤣🤣.
Secondly, I have been wanting to make one of these but did not know what they were called (I kept typing 'Double Photo Frame Case' and nothing was coming up. I don't have the same supplies as you and will try using other materials, but I will use the same method.
BRAD/Z: In the UK we call those 'Split Pins' or 'Paper Fasteners'.
GLASS: Could be replaced with acetate.
A brilliant project and your instructions have made it so easy to do. Thank you.
This was a great video, totally enjoyed the watching of it and thanks very much for sharing the process of making this … 💖
That's so cool! I have a couple family ones. I'd like to make one for the hubby and i!
Very cool❣️
Love this
Awesome!
fantastic 😊
That’s so cute!! I’ll have to try that project…! Dunno when! But I’ll definitely try it!
Gol Durn It, Nicole, the detail! My family is polluted with these bits of history, in our homes or at the museum, so I won’t be crafting any new ones. But your case of teeny little pieces joined together so beautifully, with the embossed fabric and trim suitable for a beloved daguerreotype, is awesome, truly magnificent. I bow to you. Top hat swooshing. I think that says it!
That sounds like my kind of pollution! Thank you, Louise =)
very cool!
