I bought it :) maybe I can make a video where I show all the materials I use for book clothing, thanks for the suggestion!

Thanks! Now that I've become more familiar with the htv I prefer it only because to the touch it almost doesn't feel on the cover

Hi! Thank you for your questions! There are various types of vinyl, so it really depends on which one you choose. Generally, you don’t need glue, as most vinyls are either adhesive or can be applied with heat. In this video, I used permanent vinyl, which is highly resistant to both UV rays and water, and it's guaranteed to last at least 3 years. However, since it's applied to the cover of a book and kept indoors, I believe it may last even longer. Additionally, it's easy to apply with the help of transfer tape. Even better is the heat transfer vinyl (HTV), which adheres much more strongly to the cover. If you're curious to see how it works, I used it in my recent videos. You’ll need a mini press for this method, and the application is a bit more challenging, but if you're patient, the results are truly satisfying! I hope I was helpful, and if you have any other questions, let me know! 🥰

Hi, thank you so much! 🥰 It's a bookbinding ruler kit by Craftelier that I bought on Amazon

You can do both 😂😂

I used permanent vinyl, it's adhesive and doesn't require heat to apply :)

It's permanent vinyl :)

Thank you! It's a faux leather for repairs, like this one on Amazon a.co/d/8gfjgtK

@@BookishDIYChronicles Does it stick well or does it come off after some time? Would you need extra glue ?

​@@sliceofchilliYes, it sticks well, maybe even too well..it might stick to your fingers, as it always happens to me. So, there's no need for extra glue. Besides that, it's practical to work with.

@@dichav6114 thank you for your comment!! ❤️ It's vinyl glue for paper, wood and fabric

It's part of this set: a.co/d/01Vj4gi

@@Arkontasss thank you so much 🥺 your comments made my day ❤️

@@BookishDIYChronicles mention not ❤️

@@Arkontasss thank you! 😍😍

Ciao! Mi trovo bene devo dire, l'unica cosa è appunto il limite delle dimensioni e solamente per questo se potessi tornare indietro credo comprerei direttamente la cricut maker. Mi trovo benissimo anche con la pelle adesiva nonostante sia estremamente appiccicosa 😂

I find the vector images on Pinterest and upload them to Cricut Design Space, I use a Cricut Joy, then I edit the images there if necessary

@@BookishDIYChronicles thankyou it looks amazing 😁

Wow! Cricut should put you on their payroll! I think your work is beautiful.

@@kenthomas1109 thank you so much!!

Permanent vinyl, no iron needed 😄

Thank you! 🥰 I use acrylic paints and in this case I also use a gold pigment powder 😊

Thank you! 🥰

Hi! 🥰 In my short experience, both work well, but HTV feels more uniform to the touch compared to permanent vinyl. With permanent vinyl, some small parts can sometimes peel off or attract dust, but so far, I haven't encountered that issue with HTV. That said, permanent vinyl is easier to apply than HTV; you just need to get used to it. I recommend trying both to see which one you prefer. As for your second question, it's not impossible. I’ve seen many bookbinders far more skilled than I am use incredibly intricate designs. To achieve a more precise cut and cleaner weeding, it may be helpful to set the blade pressure to "more"

@@BookishDIYChronicles thank you so much for answering!! God bless you 🤍

Bless you too! You're very welcome ❤️

Thanks 😄

I'm glad it has been helpful 😊

Thanks! 🥰

You are very kind 🥺🥰 thank you so much!! ❤️

Yes, this is permanent vinyl. I've recently started using iron-on vinyl and encountered the same challenges you faced, even having to redo one cover from scratch. However, once you master the application process, I personally prefer the iron-on because it feels much more uniform to the touch compared to the permanent vinyl. Also, some small parts can sometimes peel off or attract dust, but I haven't encountered that issue with iron-on vinyl, at least based on my experience so far. Despite this, I suggest you to try it yourself; you might find that you prefer it and feel more satisfied with your results. I'm sorry for this extra long answer 😅I hope I was still helpful to you. Best of luck with your bookish projects! 🥰

@@BookishDIYChronicles Not at all! I appreciate your fast response and advice. It might also be a problem of the HTV quality. So far I have tried some one the cheaper side for practise. I will try some different brands. Maybe it will work out better. Wish you also all the best! ❤

I bought it on temu, it's like a roll of adhesive fabric for repairing furniture. I think you can found them also on Amazon :)

@@Luca_Canc Sì :)

It would be easier but apparently I like to complicate my life with big books and putting design pieces together. 😅 If I could go back I wouldn't buy the Joy just for this reason

@@BookishDIYChronicles What kind of vinyl is used for the book edges stencil?

I use cricut smart stencil or removable vinyl 😊

Adhesive leather :)

I found them on pinterest :)

@@BookishDIYChronicles thanks.I just got into bookbinding Fanfictions and I have my old Circuit Joy from a few years ago.

@@BookishDIYChronicles Maybe you can do a tutorial of how you pick your covers designs and make it on the Joy soon.

@@MasterTia221b yes I can do it in the next few days :)

@@sicurr1 Hello! It's adhesive leather. It's usually used for furniture repairs but I use it to bind books 😄

Thank you so much! The headbands on the spine give more support to the structure of the books and are also decorative 😊

Sorry 😅

Thank you! 😊

Hi 😊 if you mean transfer foil I've only tried it a few times, so I'm not an expert. However, you can find it on amazon. Cricut itself produces it, or this is the one that I have: We R Memory Keepers 0633356606680 Foil Quill-4 x 6 Inch Seat-Silver Swan (30 Piece), M a.co/d/g8i5fuG Hope it helps you ❤️

@@BookishDIYChronicles Thank you so much!!

Grazie! Lo preferivo in inglese :)

Thank you! ❤️ I use acrylic paints 🥰

🥰

Thanks! 😄

Thank you! 😄

Thank you!

Thank you so much! I actually panicked myself while I was applying it. 😂 I'm still a beginner and didn't even know the dry hinge method before your comment. Now I'll have to try it! Thank you again!

Thanks! It depends on the material you use, Cricut permanent vinyls are the ones that I think last the longest. If I'm not mistaken they are guaranteed for 3 years outdoors, so I think they can last even longer on books, if looked after well :)

It is adhesive leather :)
