Watching you create pockets and tucks, inside bigger pockets and inserts, to be attached to books and folds, with pockets inside and ragedies, ohhhh ragedies, is soooooooooo satisfying, Love love love everything, from the construction and ingenuity of pocketsmithing to your aesthetic ❤❤❤❤❤
Thnx Nik, as always it is a joy to hear you, a wonderful experiance to see you work,to understand the thaught process of a genius, so thankful i found you years ago 🤩☺ be safe
How did you know I’ve been wanting to make a lap book?! Lol. Your creations are both beautiful and inspiring. I’m saving all of these so I can spend the day(s) creating along with you 😊
LOVE the complexity! -- so many delightful surprises to be discovered as one wanders through this imaginative & useful lap book!!!! Thanks for sharing your amazing creativity!!
Lol at the magical disappearing gloves 😂. I love the look of this lapbook and all the flips, tucks, pockets, etc. I’d be super happy to have one of these to travel with or really for any reason. Can’t wait to see the next part. ❤
I think it’s cool that you are careful with your measurements and construction, but then you find ways to make it look messy - the inking, the sewing, the raggedy edges. Wonderful style!
This looks FANTASTIC! You know what you are? A Lapbook Trendsetter! I know this took HOURS to do--so THANKS for the editing/boiling it down for us. Much appreesh! ;-)
Love, love this Nik. It so amazing to see you construct the pieces, using all the spaces. And your aesthetics is so beautiful! Thank you for sharing your art with us.
I swear I could just watch you create forever - you are just so versatile with endless possibilities in your design. One of these days I might try some of your ideas but right now I just sit back and love the way you create your magic!
Just wonderful! 🤩 This is coming along perfectly. There is no doubt that a professional is creating this lapbook! 😂 I so aspire to be an amazing creator like you!🤗❤️ Tamara
Oh my! I will have to watch this over and over on half speed to have any hope of reproducing it for myself. You are indeed a master. The easier someone makes a skill look, indicates just how good at it they are. Mam, you are a master.
Just about to go to sleep Nik and you POP up so of course I had to watch 😁😁it would be rude not to. Love ❤️ your work as always and the comedic edit elements. I’ll watch again later this morning 👍🏻
I just LOVE how you do your videos and your explanations!! Been following your channel for some time, never get tired of your content or your humor!! ❤️
Ha! At least it didn't say anything dodgy. Sometimes those old dictionary pages are like a drunk uncle at a wedding, you just don't know what they're gonna say! 😳
I just love everything about this! Thank you so much for the inspiration. And I'm going to try that envelope in the middle idea on my next project.....love it!!
Nik this is amazing! I’ve watched each episode beginning to end twice and still feel overwhelmed. Do you have a simpler beginners version you recommend? You are a true artist! Thank you for sharing!
So far so good - I think. Making sure I've not missed something, but I have a policy envelope, 3 "files" and a tri-fold that we've not put in place yet, correct? I love your style, but it doesn't suit me. I've gone with a black, white, gold and pink color scheme and I am digging it. 😍🥰
I need to clean my house but I need to make one of these lap books! Hummmmm what to do? Guess I better make the lap book first otherwise my house will get half cleaned!!!
Love watching and listning to you. I wonder If you can show/teach us how to do a expandeble/accordion folder or sleeve. Would love to learn the technique to do my own folder to store my stickers and emphemera.
My first reaction when you put something askew is no no no no, and I get jangly, but then you do it and it looks great. I don't know what I got all worked up about. geez.
That is great to hear! That pocket is on a page with some other library-ish things. I can't remember what it's called, but if you go to my Etsy store page and search the listings for "library", it should pop up. :)
Heya! My version of a lapbook is basically somewhere to stash memorabilia, ephemera, stationery, etc. Maybe take notes, make lists or write letters, if it has a notebook or writing pages inside like this one. I think it would be great to fill up with stuff for kids to keep them busy on a trip, sort of like an activity book. Really, they could be adapted for all sorts of occasions. =)

Awesome, Nik! This lapbook is looking so very pretty! Gorgeous! ❤
I'm so bamboozled watching this. 👀 I love how it all fits together ❤️ 💕 💗 from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺 ❤️

HappyHappyHappy🤗 Thank you 🙏🏼
Omg! Clip the end of the thread!! I usually clip the thread to the cover but clipping the end is a much better idea, thanks
The UHU sticks always get me too! 😂
I wish I had half the talent and creativity you have. I'd love to create in person with you, and learn from you!
Thanks for sharing!

I was holding my breath when you were playing chicken with the thread 😄
😄 I was sweating it there for a minute!

I appreciate that, thank you! :)
Really enjoy watching you create.
❤️ TFS!
You are so creative.I love that staggered look. The edit part was great…
Watching your process is great! Lots of great ideas! Thanks Nik! I’m still over in UK and looking forward to getting home and creating again!
I'm just a little jealous over here, but I do hope you are having a great time! ☺️
@@NiktheBooksmith fingers crossed you get a chance to travel soon!
i watch all of your video's and so far there's never been one that wasn't very skillfull👌 and funny😁 too❣
❣️ Ooooo, I love your center page 🥰❣️ L❤️VED your tutorial as well Nik 😘 Absolutely MAGNIFICENT ❣️
Just about to go to sleep Nik and you POP up so of course I had to watch 😁😁it would be rude not to. Love ❤️ your work as always and the comedic edit elements. I’ll watch again later this morning 👍🏻
Just thinking & doing the same...ho hum, who needs sleep anyway 😴 🙄
I just LOVE how you do your videos and your explanations!! Been following your channel for some time, never get tired of your content or your humor!! ❤️
I love this new lap book. Your creativity amazes me!!! 💚🖤💚
I love that the dictionary piece on the back of the insert has an entry: fellow creature. 🤣
Ha! At least it didn't say anything dodgy. Sometimes those old dictionary pages are like a drunk uncle at a wedding, you just don't know what they're gonna say! 😳
@@NiktheBooksmith it's what we love about them...
Omg!🤣🤣🤣 The part where your audio went out, I cracked up! Was not expecting that. GREAT!!🌟♥️🌟
Thanks for the creative inspiration. Beautiful book.
I just love everything about this! Thank you so much for the inspiration. And I'm going to try that envelope in the middle idea on my next project.....love it!!
So many great ideas for tuck and pockets ❤ love the look of everything 😊
Cool beans.
You are the only person who binds simple spines like I do! I don’t remember seeing you sew other than a traditional Coptic stitch
I just love watching you work!
Nik this is amazing! I’ve watched each episode beginning to end twice and still feel overwhelmed. Do you have a simpler beginners version you recommend? You are a true artist! Thank you for sharing!
Looking amazing!
Great job Nic! Really enjoyed .. thank you for sharing!
Amazing as usual. This is on my list to create.
Loving this, thank you 😘
Love how this is coming together! 🌸
Nik this looks wonderful - i love what you did - thank you xx

Love watching and listning to you. I wonder If you can show/teach us how to do a expandeble/accordion folder or sleeve. Would love to learn the technique to do my own folder to store my stickers and emphemera.
Thanks Camilla! I've done small accordion folders in previous lapbooks, maybe they could be adapted to the size you need. =)
@@NiktheBooksmith Oh, thanks I'll watch the video 👍
My first reaction when you put something askew is no no no no, and I get jangly, but then you do it and it looks great. I don't know what I got all worked up about. geez.
I can never get anything straight, so I've learned to embrace the askew. 😄
Will this lap book be for sale?? I’m drooling 🤤
👍😉
What are the Tim Holtz papers pls? I NEED them in my life!
I’m afraid my lapbook would be very plain and skinny without following one of your examples!
I haven't created for a while now I'm working full time but you have inspired me. Do you have that library date card pocket available as a download?
That is great to hear! That pocket is on a page with some other library-ish things. I can't remember what it's called, but if you go to my Etsy store page and search the listings for "library", it should pop up. :)
@@NiktheBooksmith Thanx so much Nik...I found the download and will be purchasing it asap!! Keep up the awesomeness!!
@@jlouutube65 Could you please tell me which kit it is exactly? I can't find this exact pocket. Thanks!
I like your watch. Where brand is it???? I want one 😂😂😂
Thanks! It's a Galaxy...3? 4? One of those 😄
Interesting, what’s a lapbook? Is it same as a junk journal? Very aesthetic anyway, thank you.

Magic purple gloves??? Disappear and re-appear at will???
Thank you!
