I am just getting into book binding and your videos are very helpful! I was wondering how you decided that there should be 3 mm between the spine and each cover board. I’ve seen a bunch of different tutorials and each one does a different distance.
some of the books i love do not have hard cover versions so this is helpful for protecting my books because i know that paperback books are too easily damaged even if i look at them wrong 😅
Thank you so so much for this video! I've been trying to get into bookbinding but don't really have the budget for an expensive machine or professional material. THis is so great! Thank you!!
I just had to say, your video is so much easier to follow compared to others online. You really really sound like Madam Delacroix in Bridgerton if anyone watched the series!! It makes the experience 100x better 😭😭😭 can you also make a video about how to add gold foil on the hardcover without the laser printer I don’t have one and I was looking for more options for that.
its cool but do we have to use same ptinters for ink jet and laser?? well im tying to do ink and foil designs but it deosnt match , knowing i leave the regestration marks to cut with my cameo 4
going to do this for my copy of fall on your knees, my paper cover is falling apart and i recently found this book already damaged in my aunties run down apartment she is using as storage lol.
Thank you so much!✨️🤎 I really needed this tutorial, I have a book with a cover that I dont like, and I never had the courage to change it, but wish me luck because im gonna try! ⚘️
Hairspray has acid in it so that means it will slowly break down the paper over the decades. I find that if you water down PVA glue and use it for your first layer that it is easier. Still new to the technique so you may want to experiment.
I used photo paper which is much more difficult 😭 Didn’t turn out exactly right but I think its pretty close! If I just try a few more times I bet I can get it down.
This tutorial validates my artsy skills to be applied to bookbinding. Also, I'm glad you highlighted the 'imperfections' and that there are always solutions for them instead of just repeating back to the first step. Thank you so much!
Im not sure I understand the part with the printed flowers on the transparent foil (I understood the golden part though)…I just don’t get how you print on the transfer foil Please help meeee
It is a transfer paper for light fabric I found in a dollar store near me. you can print on it with a regular inkjet pinter and transfer it to your fabric with an iron. Normally it is mostly for t-shirts or so but i used it for my book.
I've been binging videos just as this one and I just had the startling realization that I can't even fold paper perfectly to save my life. What am I doing looking up tutorials? Pff- 😂 But look, I don't like how my cover of The Last Unicorn looks.
