Yes! I definitely would love a video on your technique for the spine/board cover. Also, Natalia's illustrations are wonderful! Are you able to put them into a digital kit?

@RevLetaLee 9 месяцев назад

I could watch your amazing work all day.

@MariaCaso1118 Год назад

I’m sure you’ve thought of this but in case you haven’t, you should scan your friend’s drawings into your computer so that you can use copies in your journals and cherish the originals. Love the Jane Austin book and kit! Sorry you and your husband had such a tough week, here’s to better days ahead! Thanks for all you share! ☮️💜

@irenemacias7423 Год назад

Thank you Nik for being my best and favorite journal - book maker artist !!! You have inspired me and I am so very grateful 😊💖‼️‼️‼️‼️ I am currently working on completing my first real journal and hope it even looks like something you could had created back when you were maybe 2 or 3 years old !!! If you are ever so inclined to critique the work your admireres create , please let me know right away 👍😀!!!!! Stay safe and well 😊💖

@cherylann933 Год назад

Thanks Nik! Learn so much from your videos. Think we all have those times when it seems that everything pops up all at the same time. It drives me crazy! Love your laidback style, especially after watching other RU-vidrs. I’ve been speeding some up and sometimes muting them to get through! Boy do I really appreciate you jumping right into the subject, not doing “shoutouts”, having annoying music, spotlighting trendy nails, blah blah blah… sorry had to vent🙈 my ADD is rearing it’s ugly head! And you do you…your way when you can. Love ya Nik! Keep up the good work. Thanks!❤😂🤣

That's a great tip! Thank you, Nik! 💕 The book is gorgeous, as is all your work! 😍

Warpage happens--and Nik to the rescue! WOW. This kit exceeded my expectations! SO EXCITED to get working with it! 🙂

Always get hyped when you post a vid! Thanks for every vid you post. 🦌💌❤️📚

@LindaSmith-vq1br Год назад

Love the book and appreciate the fix for warpage. I needed it!

@craftnerdcreates Год назад

I love the new kit and the journal you made with it. And this video came just in time to provide me with inspiration for a present for a friend's birthday. She is a big Jane Austen fan. And she loves dragons. So I made her a Jane Austen meets Dragons junk journal. Natalia's illustrations are stunning. 💕💕

@chrisrasmussen4612 Год назад

OMG Nik, I love you, you are so hilarious. But I do understand, I'm responsible for mine and my dads doctors and dentist and its crazy. So Bless you!!!

When the game show Jeopardy starts recognizing amazing artists that teach on the internet, I will get this double Jeopardy question correct:" I wouldn't be me if I didn't print something upside down." Answer: Who is Nik the Book Smith? And Cheryl Parish will be heading to final Jeopardy! Love your videos! Inspiring, magical, informative, sometimes silly, but who doesn't love silly? Thanks for sharing the smallest of snippets with us. It always makes me smile!

Oh my, Nik! I love this! Jane Austen is one of my favorite authors! It is good to see you create a book again! Tell your friend she's very talented and should make some digi's of her drawings!

THANK YOU!!👍🌞❤️

@whatifitnt Год назад

We all have THOSE weeks 😁 Dickens is the same way... I’ve read the first chapter of the Christmas Carol at least 5 times over the years😂 I even tried starting in the middle of the book. 😏 They were written back when reading around a fire was all they had for relaxation and entertainment and they needed those few books they had to last a good long time 🔥 IMO Thanks again, Nik 💝

@susanjerrell9220 Год назад

Funny, I can read Dickens all day but the flowery on and on love stories like Jane Austen put me to sleep. There's something for everyone. Try a different Dickens like Oliver Twist.

@JournalBreeze Год назад

Thanks for the warp-fix info! I would like to see your spine with cardboard method. The journal feels very Jane Austin!

@maramakesjournals2319 Год назад

Okay, then. I did read Emma in May. Emma consists mainly of upper crusty people visiting each other and then gossiping about people not in the room. I also read the Scarlet Letter as delayed penance for reading only the Cliffs Notes for HS English Literature. That book is crazy [crazy] for contemporary kids. There are way too many issues and undercurrents for young readers to digest. I hardly knew how sex worked back in the sixties. Well, thanks for all the helpful hints. That’s why I still watch after all these years.🤪

@lorikendrick5076 Год назад

Soooooooon... Right now, there is some very noisy work being done on the house, so I won't be able to record anything for a bit. Hopefully, it will all be done by the end of the week.

@NorthlightsStudio Год назад

I have been thinking about a Jane Austin journal for a while. Thanks. Can totally relate to all the appointments as I also have that and my hubby was just diagnosed with Prostate Cancer ( the doctor thinks he can get it all through surgery as it’s all located in his prostate) . So a waiting game for the date. Fun times. Take care.

@NiktheBooksmith Год назад

oh no....I am so sorry to hear that. What a roller coaster for you! I hope your hubby is doing okay, that's a scary diagnosis to get even in the best of circumstances. Big hugs and lots of love to you both ❤️

@NorthlightsStudio Год назад

@@NiktheBooksmith thanks Nik. It’s the waiting that’s the hardest part.

@nelsonsherbs9477 Год назад

This concept is useful. It's festival season, oh wait, it's concert season, and of course it's always birding season. So many ideas for themed books and never enough time. And now I've looked into the rabbit hole and you nudged me over the edge into watching or rewatch four more of your videos.They are way more entertaining and informational than anything on TV. Thank you for this!

@NiktheBooksmith Год назад

Thank you, I appreciate that very much!

@waboosje Год назад

Hi Nik, I did not have this problembjet but as I do use wet glue sometimes it can easily happen so i'm very happy that you showed us how to solve this issue. 😊 Love the cover and the eco-dyed fabric. My own eco-dyed farns don't cone out as clear/sharp as yours so I'm wondering how you do that. Byebye, keep up the good work and thank you so much. ❤

@GloriaSkipper Год назад

Yes I know Austen. Auto correct!🫶🏼

@cyberwymn Год назад

I have a desk jet printer, so I couldn't do that without ruining the ink...haven't tried it to be honest. I always make sure my covers are straightened out before I bind them and use double-sided tape never glue. So far so good lol. If I had a laser printer perhaps I wouldn't be so nervous about doing it after I bounded it.Thanks for the cool video! 💕

One gal's Poe is another gal's Austen lol! Beautiful kit!

@NiktheBooksmith Год назад

Indeed. Thank you =)

@sandikalin636 Год назад

Love this, I agree with you about Jane Austin. A bit too wordy for me. It shouldn’t take more than 2 sentences to describe a tree ( in my opinion). Lol. Have a great weekend.

Great stuff. I would have ripped the book open because I don't have the kind of patience you have. Ironically, you say you don't have the patience to read. I read all her work over again every six years, which is how long it takes for me to forget the details. lol. xxx

@artonthecreek Год назад

Thanks so much, Nik! Is there anyway that the warping could be preemptively solved by placing the covers under something fairly heavy before assembling the book?

@NiktheBooksmith Год назад

Sadly, this won't solve the issue. If there is warp in the boards, it will just happen once you remove the weight. =/ Great question, thanks for asking!

@artonthecreek Год назад

@@NiktheBooksmith thanks Nik! Thanks for showing the damp paper towel solution. A similar tactic works to straighten out warped watercolor paper 🤠

Nik, have you seen DAS fix warped boards. Looks like it works. Not quick, but what is?

@NiktheBooksmith Год назад

Good morning, Susan! If its one he did a couple years ago, I'm sure I did. Although, I couldn't tell you exactly what it was he did...I will def give that a rewatch. He's brilliant.

@susanjerrell9220 Год назад

@@NiktheBooksmith , he sprayed one side with water. It bowed a lot. Let it dry. Sprayed the other side, it bowed back to straighten itself. I was pretty impressed. Lol
