Wonderful video, music, and gorgeous book. I'm an absolute novice but this made me realize how much I've learned from you in a short time. At first, I thought I would be lost without verbal instructions and at warp speed but I recognized well over 50% easily and much of the remainder of construction as you went along. The only part that completely threw me was the book cover. I love it! You make such pretty books and your craft videos are intriguing. Thank you for teaching us.
I absolutely love this! When my grandmother died, I got a book she had written poems and quotes in her cursive handwriting. It says “Scribble-in book” on the cover. It is so precious to me!
WOW--LOVED that ending shot. I was waiting for the wax seal and you did not disappoint! And fancy J. Herbin to boot. I found myself pausing and writing down the quotes in my notebook. The one that hit me like a ton of bricks was: "Weaknesses are just strengths in the wrong environment." BEAUTIFUL!!!
@@recoveringsoul755 mine too... but I'm watching in bed on a smallish tablet so I guess I will be forced to watch this pleasantness again on something bigger!
How your mind works…WOW! You come up with some of the most incredible things. I don’t think my fingers will let me work such a miniature “Thought-full” book, but I am thinking about a prayer and scripture book , slightly larger. Thank you for the inspiration.
So so cute! Love it! I struggled to follow what was happening when you sewed the text block into the fabric cover, but then when you covered up the stitching with another piece of fabric anyway, I figured I could just make the stitching up as I go and then hide whatever chaos I create haha
This was like a beautiful movie with beautiful music, beautiful subject matter, a beginning, middle and thoughtful end. You're a genius and a very good teacher. Thank you for all the well executed content you provide.
Amazingly well done... The music added even more elegance to the process. So much given to the viewer in such a mini video. Your videos are always fresh and innovative! Thanks so much!
I love everything about it. The idea, the execution, the video, and the thought behind it for another person. Nik, you not only enrich the lives of those who receive your products, but you enrich your followers lives. Thank you! ❤️
Love the book, *love* the music and enjoyed the non-speaking presentation. Wouldn't want a silent presentation every time but it was a nice change. 😁 Thanks Nik!
where's the button for "omg that was awesome!" I appreciate all your videos but this one is an especially marvellous experience: the music was wonderful and perfect for the theme of the book; the pace is quick but oh so very step-by-step instructional; and the book itself is a lovely little treasure that would brighten the heart of any recipient.
That is AMAZING!!! Turned out so well!!! Love the addition of the lace edges on the inside covers!!!😍😍😍 do you also have a word document of 1,000 quotes, sayings, encouragements? Do tell!!! ♥️ lovingly wrapped, signed and sealed!!! ♥️♥️♥️
Aww thanks Cheryl, so glad you like it! Sadly, I don't have 1,000 sayings collected, but I did upload an Etsy listing with the ones I used in this book. Ooof...a thousand?...could you imagine??
Like, this should be televised and shown to all. And the mistakes quote. Wow. "Mistakes are a fact of life. It is the response to the errors that counts" Xx
I love watching you make handmade books! I love your construction of them and watching you sew the signatures in different ways! Beautiful! And thanks for the inspiration!
Just today, I was telling someone that I keep all my favourite quotes and little anecdotes on my phone. Now I’m thinking, after watching your video…….🤔. What a gem! Thanks! (Missed your usual intro though!)
My favourite booksmith, some of my favourite classical music, and a perfectly beautiful little book! What could be better? Thanks for another wonderful, inspirational video Nik xxxxxx
Wow, what it must be like inside your brain! I've gleaned SO many ideas from your projects through the years. Thank you so much :) ..epic music choices as well :D
Nik your little book is totally outstanding !!! Love everything about it and thank you for sharing with us your process of how you made yours 💖💖. So wonderful as a gift to myself and for a gift for family and special friends … thank you and love watching your videos 😊
I Love how you just do, what you do and continue making. I here just diving into wood working, drawing, cooking, and just anything that has to do with me finding something to do and make/ create with my Hands. and the more I see your Videos and other Book binders, I think it is what i would want to do as well.... The overall Peace I see in the videos is so relaxing.
The video is so esthetic. The book is beautiful, very vintage like it could be a piece from “Pride and Prejudice”. The packaging is the frosting on the cake. Love it 💖
You are my favorite RUclips creator and artist. Everything you make is classy, elegant, different but has that “flair of Nik” style and OCD conscious!💗 Another great video. Thank you 😊
This is so adorable. You have such a fantastic sense of, what I call, tatty-style! It seems like it’s so effortless for you - when I try to do it, it comes off… not so much!
What a beautiful video to watch with my morning coffee on this drizzly morning. Thank you. Hope you will be doing a murder mystery craft along soon. I do love those and my husband even watches. Hope your day is fabulous.
An absolutely beautiful little book. The cover is stunning as is the final wrapping. I paused the video several times to read and make note of some of the quotes as well.👍🏾❤️
that is such a beautiful book!! I think I saw one off the wee vellum envelopes I gave you! Awesome. And the music was perfect! And the closure...!! ah so cute!!
Yes, ma'am and thank you! I shuffled through the stack to find THE one that would fit the best. You were ever so generous, I've got vellum envelopes for 100 years of crafting!
I love watching you create miracles with paper and notions. The music was beautiful, your process mesmerizing, and I could just watch your videos all day. Beautiful, beautiful book. Thanks for sharing your genius with us.
Kia ora Nik, that little book is awesome. While i watched your vid i said out loud "wow Nik you clever lady", hubby said is that 'Nik the Bookie' you're watching... anyway thank again for sharing your talents 💜
I’m new to your channel and I have already learned so much. This video, however, is simply a joy to watch and revel in your artistry. Thank you! (Also am loving the craft time mystery series!)
You just blew me away with this very, very creative video! Your project is equally creative and both are so unique! Thank you for sharing your many talents. I enjoyed every second of this video!
Absolutely mesmerized. I am in such awe of your skill and knowledge. I am in the process of making my first junk journal. Even though I have watched hours and hours of tutorials, I have all ready made so many mistakes. Luckily, they have been fixable one way or another, but I am only making the cover! Thank you I will watch this many many times.
I agree with Kimberly! Exquisite video composition..... and the resulting book is.... well, ONLY *absolute* perfection. Truly, Nik, I cannot express how much you have meant to me in the context of perceiving & crafting beauty from the "oh, well....."s we often toss aside. I am so grateful to have stumbled in here a while back. Hope you're feeling well.... prayers for that and for many, many blessings.
This is so beautiful. Everything you make is so well-crafted and so special. I wish I could make a book like this but I'm never going to be able to create something as lovely as this.
I've watched this video a few times and this weekend I'm going to be making one for a friend who could use the encouragement. I know she'll love it. I don't often comment, as I usually watch on my TV and can't comment from there, but I always "like" your videos. They are wonderful!

I was spell bound watching you magically create that little book. Thank you

Ooo I'm fancy pants and didn't even know it! Thanks, Hal =)
Too tiny to read on my screen

I just took the speed down and then paused and took pictures 👍😀 know I can write the quotes down 👍😉
Lovely

Perfection right down to the wax seal. Love this video.
Oh my GOD, this was the BEST TUTORIAL you have EVER DONE! The paper pig♥️
Felt like I was being transported into another time. It was beautifully done, thank you for sharing your creativity. Love it all.
Like, this should be televised and shown to all. And the mistakes quote. Wow. "Mistakes are a fact of life. It is the response to the errors that counts" Xx

Stunning mini book. I love the variety of materials and the colors!
Loved everything. Your actions told us everything we need to know. Beethoven seemed to fit right in. Thanks, Nik. Lovely book... From Cheryl in AZ
"Flight of the Valkyries" by Wagner?
I agree about Beethoven!! Moonlight Sonata is one of my favorites.
I was mesmerised watching that, you are so very clever and thoughtful and I loved it. Thank you for sharing your gift with us x
Одно из САМЫХ лучших видео. Спасибо, Ник!
