Technically it doesn't have to be murder that was just voldemort's preferred method to make a horacrux you only need to perform an act so vile it shatters your soul and humanity and before that piece of your soul goes away you capture it and force it in another object if you do it enough then it can accidentally happen when you don't intend for it to Lol umm I think I have issues it sounds like I studied this lol
Proud HP nerd here, believe it or not my mother is 68 and more of a nerd ( collector ) than me. I wouldn't be able to fit in for Xmas but maybe I can make her one for next Mother's Day ! It's perfect and I can't wait to check out and subscribe to your friend - she sounds awesome ! Thank you for your time on this . Happy Christmas :)
Heyyy, I have you two (Sea Lemon and ellawelly) to credit for helping me learn how to make the River Song journal for my wife for our anniversary :3 she was very happy with it! SO thank you both! I plan on making the Tom Riddle diary for my friend Rachael sometime soon! Thanks for the tutorial :)
this tutorial was amazing!! im a hardcore fangirl and always searching for fandom diys and i didnt even thought of trying to make tom riddles diary. Thats so cool im soo gonna do this ty so much!*-* :D
BTW, YOU THE BEST!!!! Keep on making these great tutorials!!! They are so worth it. Some of the other DIY videos from the other youtubers kind of just throw them all together and don't spend a lot of time on it so it looks flimsy but YOU DO GREAT!!! They do not at all look flimsy and I love them!!!
Thank you for all of your videos. I'm making a journal that has aged, weathered, and even some burned places in the text block, and I'm working on a recycled paper bag faux leather cover. I would never have been able to do this if not for your instructions. Thank you again.
+Sally UnicornPoopoo It does take awhile... I like to work in chunks over time - do something else and come back to it. At least give yourself a weekend to work on it. Have fun! ;)
This tutorial is the kind of thing I could watch all day! I love this kind of thing, I may never try it myself but you're so creative & fun to watch :) So thank you very much!
Oh my gosh, I was literally just about to buy one of these and decided to check RU-vid first for some reason! Now I see how simple it is to make one myself so theres no need to spend money on a replica! You're amazing.
The hell with Tom's diary, I so using this method to create a diabolic-looking grimoire, fill it out with ancient greek or latin mumbo-jumbo along with weird symbols and magical creatures and scare the living hell out of people walking out of churches by reading it out loud! :D
Lol. Imagine their faces after coming out of the Sunday sermon full of god fearing people but as soon as they step outside there is some person reading out satanic nonsense from an ancient book.
Karl Mart dont forget the fake smoke and the spooky music in the background. Maybe a wolf howling in the distance. Im sure your grandchildren will love to hear about how you gave a church full of people heart attacks.
Hey there, I've noticed that you use a lot of different adhesives for your projects, could you do a video on substitutes for the adhesives that you use. For Example: for PVA, a substitute would be a extra strength glue stick, or iron-on adhesive could be double sided tape or something along those lines. I would love to see a video on this as I am unable to find Iron-on Adhesive in my local craft stores.
I've been looking for a tutorial like this since FOREVER!!!! I love you and your perfect DIY of tom riddle's diary 😍👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 i'm sure a lot of potterheads will go head over heels when they see this video. Please make more! P.S. I love your other videos as well. New fan here :))
I've watched a number of tutorial videos on RU-vid and find yours one of the easiest to follow and complete. If I subscribed to any of the social media sites, I would give you lots of likes or whatever one does to show they enjoy the videos. You are a talented and creative crafter. Keep the ideas coming.
I love, love, love this idea! Just one question though. I've seen various people using tea and coffee to age their pages and, honestly, I can't see myself investing a lot of time and effort into making this without asking what you think. We go to so much trouble to make sure our paper and adhesives are acid free, how will the pages stand up in time after being aged with this way? Will it make them brittle or put them at higher risk of mildew or bugs? I want to maket this really bad, but I would hate for it to fall apart after a year or two :S Hope someone can answer!
Hey! Really nice tutorial, I love it! And I've got a question. :D Do you think (or know) if making a textblock out of construction paper works? I would like to make my boyfriend a photo album so I need thicker pages. :D
Kabrielle F. Jones Construction paper works, but personally I wouldn't use it because it usually fades and isn't archival (yellows over time). You could try nice drawing paper if you are looking for something thick. Hope that helps!
Thank you for this tutorial! I followed it and it came out beautifully! My only suggestion would be to support the covers with chipboard or cardboard, and then instead of adhering the Heat-n-Bond to the cover I would adhere it to tissue paper like in your other video. That way I feel the cover will glue more securely and it will last longer. Bending it (e.g., picking it up, etc.) is making the cover slowly fall off. I also added a ribbon to the middle. Again, thank you for the tutorial and I'm sure my friend will love the gift I made her!
I have always been a Potterhead and was so excited when I saw this DIY. These projects would make a pretty good decoration in any bedroom or as you suggested, during a movie marathon. :)
yours turned out way better than mine. I just did go to a store and buy a normal hard cover notebook with a kind of leathery texture, then I coloured over it with a black permanent marker. My sides didn't turn out as good as yours, so I'll re-try that tomorrow, as well as the name. Thanks for this DIY, I think its my favourite diy ever, because I really do love Harry Potter and every thing about it :)
I've already customized my diary in the Riddle's diary, without seeing your video, and when I see the vignette I thought "But wait it's mine" haha. Looks just exactly the same.
This is amazing and I'm gonna make it and write everything voldemort wrote in the book. I'm a HUGE harry potter nerd and I told my uncle I'm gonna start my shrine this year.
I've only just come across your you tube and I have to say your tutorials are fantastic!! You make book making and binding so easy thank you so much!!💕👍👏
You should do a tutorial on how to make a clamshell box! I'm learning how to make them in school, but I'll never remember how-especially with all the book cloth measurements. But the tutorials on youtube already are quite difficult to follow, and I know you could make a really intuitive one. They're very cool and are great for gifts (with or without books inside of them) :).
Love it, I changed 1 bit though. Instead of drawing on the design for corner pieces, I used small dabs of hot glue and let them dry for a 3D effect and painted them black. I also used a gold vinyl instead of the cardboard and paper and it turned out good i think.
I really love you for this video because a few hours ago I thought about making Voldys journal as a birthday present for a friend and i would've used a store-bought journal and just added little touches but this is _way_ better!
I don't like this. This isn't good. You're not creative. Your DIY's are not good. I don't like your videos. You shouldn't stay on RU-vid. I don't like this, I love it. This isn't good, this is marvelous. You're not creative, you're super creative. Your DIY's are not good, your DIY's are perfect. I don't like your videos, I love your videos. You shouldn't stay on RU-vid, you should live on RU-vid.
You are such a life saver. Thank you so much! Your head must be full of creative ideas, otherwise I don't know how you come up with it. Thanks to you, I have the perfect gift to give for my mother's birthday. Wish you lots of luck and success for the future.
I think you should make the golden snitch, plushie, or even out of rubber bands! I know you can do it, especially when you made the awesome Tom M. Riddle diary!
I have to make a prop replica from my favorite movie for a final project. After a lot of research I am planning on doing something similar to this book tutorial. Thank you so much for this! I would have had no idea how to even start.
