I'm not sure if they have minimums but they're easy to communicate with when you request a quote. I ordered 120 pt (3mm), which turned out to be difficult to cut. Next time I'm going to try 100 pt. I tried acquiring Davey Board this time with no luck... I'm so glad I found Hammond Paper!

My next video will be all about craft shows/fairs/markets. Do you have questions you'd like me to answer?
How do you pick which ones to attend? What's the average cost of a booth you've found?
Hello Chanel :) I hope you have a great time at the craft fair! I am trying to level up my book binding skills enough to sell my books at markets and fairs too one day. How much stock and product variety would you recommend a craft market newbie prepare? Thank you!
What personal items do you usually bring to a craft fair? Stuff that people may not think about like extra hair ties, extra water, snacks, etc.
Along the same lines, how do you prepare for a fair? What do you do day of, day before, week of, month before regarding booth layout, choosing items to sell, traveling, etc.
I've been trying markets this year and have leather journals and notebooks on display. But i have most of my items unreachable so they don't get grubby by a lot of touching. I know how important it is for people to hold items and I'm considering plastic bags for the products and putting everything within reach. How do you display your items, how do you overcome this issue and what are your feelings/ thoughts on this? Thank you Chanelle 🤗😊
In the video you mention your ideal customers, how do you figure out who your ideal customers are? Also I'm taking my books to my first craft fair this fall and I'm super nervous! How do you determine pricing? And how do you sell to people? Do they seem to want you to sell them on your books?
I have pretty bad anxiety and even with medication have a hard time falling asleep most nights. Your channel is on my shortlist of options to help me calm down and prepare to sleep. I might never get into bookbinding, but you most certainly are helping me ☺
I love your silent vlogs, I love just watching you work. I have to say that I love the patterned papers you use they're really beautiful. The amount of outlay you have is incredible and I love watching you cutting and measuring. I find watching you making books very relaxing for me, as well as informational, it helps to see how binders create. I like to make my own note books and covers for myself so I learn a lot just watching you work. Thank you.
Watching you make books is therapeutic! I really like your videos. I hope you film your art fair! That would be fun to watch. I used to sell my hand painted t-shirts and polymer clay jewelry at flea markets and art fairs. That would be a very nostalgic video for me! I hope you do well!
I love the sound it makes while you cut it. Peaceful ❤️
your videos are always so soothing and help me to relax - and learn more about bookbinding! thank you for sharing your craft and also pieces of yourself on this channel. i really enjoy the quirkiness of the mostly silent vlog style too
Love this type of video
WARCROSS!!!!!!!!! One of my favorite books!! I recommend everything by Marie Lu, everything she writes is incredible.
Oooh, thanks so much for the lovely shoutout at the beginning of your Video! It's Stine here and you watched my Skillshare class. :) I just started bookbinding again after a very long time and have already watched a couple of your fantastic videos. Imagine my surprise when all of a sudden my Skillshare tutorial comes up on my Screen. I hope your craft Show went well and send all my best wishes (from one introvert to another, I guess). 😀
A lot of work came in the book 📖 and it come out so nice 📗you are so amazing and also you so great keep up the great work 👍 I love you book 💖
Have a wonderful time at your market! Hope it is very successful for you and you enjoy yourself!
If you like Sci-fi games:
Detroit: Become Human
Mass Effect Trilogy and Andromeda
Destiny 2
Dead Space Trilogy (was originally on the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC)
Warframe
ooh thanks so much, I'll check them out!
@@bittermelonbindery I know this comment is a bit old but I totally second all these games! I'm a huge fan of Detroit & Destiny 2, but if you're looking for something with more storytelling, Detroit is fantastic, and it's different based on the decisions you make in the game as the characters. :)
I hope all goes well at the craft market 😊
The papers you use are gorgeous. I so want every one of them 😂
For sci fi books, I love anything by Becky Chambers. Her books are more light, character-focused, slice of life sci fi, not action heavy at all, but I love them. Warcross is on my tbr, it sounds really cool
I loved Warcross! I'd also recommend The Young Elites by Marie Lu. It's definitely one of the best YA series I've ever read. Marie Lu is a fantastic writer!
Watching your videos has inspired me to give this a try - of course my first two tries at non-stitched books was marginal at best lol. But I’m going to keep trying. Maybe I’ll get into the stitched ones. One step at a time
Keith Smith Books are the greatest. Love your videos and bitter melons, although they (bitter melons) don't want to grow in my garden for some reason.
Thanks for the video.
I love watching your videos and you have inspired me to finally start my own binding business. Also, years ago, while living on Vancouver Island, I was lucky enough to do a weekend workshop with Keith Smith. I think it was organised by Paper-Ya (on Granville Island?).
I recommend Project: Hail Mary, by Andy Weir. He's the same author that did The Martian. There's a twist in PHM that I REALLY love. It comes out of left field, but keeps Weirs scientific precision. Highly recommended.
Ooh a space one. I'll definitely check it out, thanks!!
I don’t know if it counts but I would also recommend Stray and Horizon Zero Dawn both are video games
Dot from UK
I don't know when you find time to read? I love your new lamp very cool and I love your videos. Lots of love Dot x
I am just now getting a tiny bit more intermediate with my bookbinding skills and want to start selling my books soon to raise money to give back to my community. I'm feeling very much ready to move on to investing in some actual equipment and a guillotine cutter like yours is at the top of my list. Can I ask: is the cutter you're using in this video a 12"/A4 or 17"/A3 size? Also curious what brand it is, how happy you are with it, and if you have any tips you could share for getting nice cuts. I've seen reviews for this type of cutter online and almost all of them have folks complaining about not getting straight/even cuts, so I assume there's a knack to it. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated and in the meantime, I'm very much enjoying your videos about market selling and the process of making many books at once!
My favorite sci-Fi/fantasy books are by Wen Spencer. The first book in the series is called Tinker and takes place in alternate reality and on and off Earth in Pittsburgh. It’s well written, has some language, but there’s action and romance and a lot of science. Right now there’s five books in the series.
I want to know how you price for craft fairs. I can never price correctly.
Ok, I have a question for you about the small soft cover journals with the pretty papers glued to the front: how do you do this without the cover bowing/curving? I have tried this multiple times with some thinner weight marbled paper I have on similar soft cover journals and it's been a problem. I'm not sure if it's a grain direction issue...using the wrong kind of glue...not enough weight pressing down while drying. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated (including any other videos where you show putting those together).
I think you will enjoy The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet by Becky Chambers. It’s a book. Check this one out.
I'll check it out, thanks!
Where did you obtain the cover papers for the notebooks? Just beautiful.Thank you
Thank you❤️
Can l ask? Could you show your workplace? Your room? Thanks 🤗
Thank you for the interesting video! :)
I know it's off-topic but where did you get the vegan marshmallows? I've been having a hard time finding some without gelatine and the ones you showed look great!
they were at the local supermarket, the brand is Dandies!
@@bittermelonbindery thank you so much!
I wonder if you ever save the scraps of paper! If you don’t, maybe you can use them to make custom paper or paper mache some covers!!
I give them to my friend who makes resin washi earrings!
What size of paper do you need?? How's the measurement of the final product?
It's soooo gorgeous!!!!
I love those Soft-cover sketchbooks. The covers don't look like regular, thick book board though. Is it just really thick cardstock?
80 lb cover weight cardstock!
Oooooh that guillotine is dreamy! What is it called?
I linked it in the description :)
Do you sell your books? I checked the description but I must have missed any links if you do.
the notebooks at the end turned out so precious 💕
what kind of paper/cardboard did you use for the covers? (the beige one, not the japanese ones)
is it cardstock 80 lb? you mentioned it in one of your tutorials. is it the same you used in this video?
@@orlanswf yes it's the same one!
@@bittermelonbindery also about the chiyogami paper, is it a thin origami paper? what kind of paper is it? (i'm looking up papers to buy and would love to know more details)
Chiyogami is its own type of paper! Not origami. I believe anything made of kozo (mulberry fibre) or a mix is considered good quality and easier to work with when gluing
