    No, don't change a thing! Just telling my daughter recently how refreshingly funny you are.
    Loving this project too...when we moved (from Colorado), I had to give my old books to this great shop, so I have
    to wait for just the right book...but when I do, I know what I'm gonna make! Thank you for this channel and you and
    your sense of humor.

    I am loving this lap book! For someone who flies by the seat of her pants for her projects, you are an awfully good pilot! And, I always told my kids: the truly creative mind does not need to resort to that which offends.

    Hey Nik I like the flap/lid! You're so very clever, and we appreciate that you listen. :D And I may be in the minority, but I fully appreciate your "filter". I really don't care for all the vulgarity that seems to come so easy to so many these days. So, for me, it's much appreciated when I come across a RUclipsr who is funny without the potty mouth. Thank you.

      I agree, so many people on the "tube" feel the need to be "cool and current" and they can get really vulgar in the attempt. I appreciate a place where we can relax and not worry about lewd comments.

      Hi Michelle, I think Nik has a video but I thought I'd throw a few suggestions out there. Flea markets are a great place to start, especially out door ones, (I've gotten some vintage Report Cards, old herbal medicine info book, and post cards for cheap) yard sales, estate sales, even Goodwill or other type thrift shops. Remember even a handkerchief could look awesome! 😍🤞

    I worked with teachers for a number of years, in many different schools and the majority of them were nasty. That surprises people when I say that, but I can tell you they love to slander other teachers, parents, the principal and some studies. I find it incredible that someone with your great personality was in that environment. Glad to see they didn’t rub off onto you.

    Nk, I will be the first one to admit my language can be quite 'colorful'. I made it through raising three children and they don't have foul mouths. LOL
    When my grandson was about 10 months old, I kept him one evening so my daughter could go out. We were on my bed, playing, and something made him mad. He reared his hand back, like he was going to hit, and shouted, "Pock!" Only, I don't think that was what he was saying. LOL
    I learned to be more careful after that. It was one thing to curse in front of my own children, though, I am not proud of it. But, it is entirely another matter to curse in front of anyone else's children.
    Thanks for everything you do and HOW you do it, clean and humorous!

      I have bad feet, and whenever I clip the side of the rug shampooer-I don’t say “oh my goodness that was unfortunate!” That device has it out for me and when we cross paths I threaten that thing with a few unsavory words.
      Once in awhile a cursey word isn’t a deal breaker for me personally. But I also understand why most people don’t want to hear it.

    Closure as in an end to the series and how you are finishing off the book? Joking. The closure is actually a really good idea and I love those screw brads. The way you decorated the accordion folder is so cute. Love it!
    I find it really odd when people are offended by people that *don't* curse in their videos. I mean, what? What? I've never really thought about the fact that you don't curse. I personally don't care one way or the other. But it's nice that you are family friendly.

    It is beautiful and was a lot of work! Very well done. Unfortunately there is not much space, not enough to fill all this nice pockets with stuff. If you put in every pocket some sheetsc it will get to thick an thwn you have a problem to fold it. Why I can be that sure? because if you look from above on the book you see that the flappages are already level without any others paper in it. If you want to have really place, for using it, not only for looking at it the spines have to be much wider. It is sooo much work, that it is a pity if it doesn't work as well as it looks good. So I highley recommened all who buy such things to look at this point, only if this is fulfilled, it will work. Thank you for your tutorials!

    I have never ever watched even a show. I didn't even know there was a movie, but I'm not surprised! I'm obviously a Google nerd!
    I just got rid of my encyclopedia set from the 80s! I spent the last 10 years trying to think what to do with any of them. I wish I would have gutted them since my GW threw them all in a dumpster. I should have donated them to a shelter, or maybe I'm the only geek that was fascinated enough to read them!
    I heart you to the moon and back! 💕
