4:14 Great stuff! Initially we were instructed to keep thin books under our heavy mattresses overnight and later on under stacks of heavy books. Starting Kindergarten, all new books were to be covered with "brown paper" ( rolls of this paper were bought together with the books ) and a name sticker was put in place stat. Dad taught us a couple of times and then it was our job. Neat, well covered books and notebooks used to be a matter of pride and were also appreciated by our teachers. Some kids were able to keep these covers intact for months on end! In middle/senior school, it was considered trendy to create one's own notebooks with A4 sheets stitched together with soft binding - plus many considered it foolish to buy overpriced notebooks with poor quality pages. Now its difficult to find quality book binders around. So will probably get back to the basics again. Cheers! 🇮🇳 🇺🇸
I really appreciate what you share and the clear way you do it. I hope you will keep doing this. One of the most helpful bookmaking sites I have found. Thank you.
perfect-bound books are a cheap and easy way to do it, but they're not as long lasting as proeprly bound and stitched books. - Source: born and raised in a bindery.
where can I get formatted pages like these? Very nice video btw. I enjoyed the audio more than anything haha. Something satisfying about the background sounds.
I’ve purchased notebooks in the past made like this and after like a week the pages would pull out some even had all pages pop off cover. I think if gluing and now sewing pages then you need sturdy thick glue so pages don’t come out.
Excellent. My creative juices are dribbling right through my creative mind with my fingers a wiggling....thinking where's that ream of paper I had!!!! 😂😂 People like you really capture my attention. Thank you
