Nik, I just love your approach to a creative life! I'll bet Rit would be proud to have you as a spokesperson/demonstator. I am in Santa Clarita, 30 miles north of L.A. and it is HOT! We had all that rain last winter and we are still living with the water evaporating off of the mountains. So, last week we were in the 100's with cloud covered skies. 100 today and foggy. It's like Ohio!!! So thanks for this cool break!

@cherylparish1375 11 месяцев назад

I just choked on my graham cracker when you mentioned the seventies Tupperware Green Bowls. I still have the nesting set of two. The lids look horrible from the microwave but are still functional. Now, I feel there should be a tribute journal made to celebrate their long service in the kitchen regardless of their unappetizing color. 😂 I'm totally cracking up! You could make an hour long video of paint drying entertaining and hilarious. :)

This was just what I needed to start my day as I wait for the pain pills to kick in. Maybe it’s my screen, but I loved them both. It’s hot here in Georgia day and night. I sympathize with the construction noise. My neighborhood is 20 years old, so repairs are pretty constant and almost everyone has a lawn service on a different day. Wow the pills make me chatty even in print.😁

I love to read old cook books. I find some of the terms used in them to be interesting. I noticed that red embossed book. It would make a lovely cover for a junk journal. LOL. I've had a bit of a trying day. I helped a friend get her printer set up yesterday. I got a call to help again this afternoon. Got a gut feeling that I'm going to be getting many more calls. I don't know why I do it to myself. She's had the printer for months and I thought that if I got it setup, that would be enough. It never is.

@NiktheBooksmith 11 месяцев назад

Girl, it never is. I have a sneaking suspicion that printers do what they do to deliberately drive humans to madness. They intend to take over the world. Just don't let on that you know! 🤫

I liked the cotton ribbons: I think it they would look great on an ocean themed junk journal/project. You can glue some sand/rocks on the ribbon for color contrast. The rayon ribbon would look great in a floral/forest themed project.

@gardensiren 11 месяцев назад

your gifted books are fabulous! lucky you! Also I like both the muslin and the rayon ribbon dyed….different textures and fabric, therefore different results. I dye quite a bit of the rayon ribbon using procion dyes. It’s addicting 😊

@anniemorris5855 11 месяцев назад

If you wet the fabric first and spray the dye, it will diffuse and blend better. If you spray direct on dry the dye will grab and sit and have more definition. At least that’s what happens when I use Procion dyes on natural fabrics. Great video. Thanks for sharing! Be well.

@JennCadyFiddlyBits 11 месяцев назад

4:05 I don’t remember what that process is called, but it has to do with when the book was bound, the pages were not cut until after. It caused the leading edges of the pages as well as the upper and lower margins to be uneven. Also, you’ll notice that the text block sometimes shifts orientation on books with this page unevenness.

@beckyb4074 11 месяцев назад

Hey there Nik, my mother had that "lettuce bowl" with the thing inside that you stabbed your lettuce head onto, LoL. As for how I'm doing, I am recovering some what from an intense stabbing pain between my left shoulder blade and backbone that radiated down my left arm to my elbow. This has been since July 1rst. The Dr (loosely called) thinks muscle spasm but is more interesting in my blood sugar & colesteral levels than my PAIN level. Yikes 😳. And that office call ($$$$) was on the 5th. But I'm doing okay considering. 68 degrees sounds good to me. We are pretty hot here, but at least for now we are not in the 100 degree plus temperature (in the shade)😮. I think about you all the time, which always reminds me to pray for others much more than for myself. Take care young lady ❤️ and God bless you and yours. Sincerely Becky B from Arkansas

@carolinelabbott2451 11 месяцев назад

It keeps fluctuating between 17 and 24 Celsius in the UK. But its the the humidity that makes it feel worse. So we have a mix of half a day hot dry and half hot rain. Another day hot muggy, then more hot rain. Occasionally it cools down in the morning before going hot again. Blagh. Give me cooler weather thanks. Garden is over growing into a wild meadow, but we can't get out to maintain it due to the erratic weather. However nowadays our winters are not cold. I want proper seasons back, but unfortunately that won't happen in my lifetime nor future generations. Why do humans gave to so dumb? Erghh. Never mind, can't change things now. That was a lovely collection of books. I'm going through my books currently and trying to give away as many to charity as I can. Blooming hard as I'm a book hoarder. Some books were easy to give away, but the rest is harder to part with. I only have limited bookshelf space and I really can't leave all my books in piles on the floor. I recently found I have a lot of colouring books, untouched, so I'm scanning them a bit of a time onto my computer. Once done I can then give the books away to some one else. I thankfully have back ups of back ups for what I save on my computer. My plan is to print off any lineart I want then rip them up to make collages for me to either paint over or cover with layers of patterned tissuepaper. 😊

Hi Nick, this has nothing to do with marbling paper, but it’s something I’ve been wanting to ask for a long time. Do you have a video on how to make the bands that go across the spine of a book???? also, does the book need to be covered in leather to do this???? Can you have bands, say, on a cloth covered book???? I hope that makes sense. I have learned so much from your podcast,I’ve gone back and watched a lot of of them. I couldn’t find one on this particular subject though. thank you!🙏😊❤️

@petrasarge-williams9458 11 месяцев назад

Hi from Germany! 😊 Do you do anything to the books before you use them as a junk journal? I mean like brush baking soda on it or leave it in a plastic bag on a warm place?

Great video! Can I ask how you set up your camera to show your perspective without impeding what you can see or getting your head in the shot? I always wonder with videos like these.

@NiktheBooksmith 11 месяцев назад

Hi Elizabeth! I have a couple set-ups, one is an overhead contraption that my husband built and the other one I got on Amazon. If you want to check out the different types of overhead mounts, click on the link to my Amazon favorites lists under this video, there should be a few on the Tools list. It all depends on the type of camera you'll be using. Some mounts are for lightweight recording devices like phones or webcams and others are more robust for full-sized cameras and such. I hope that helps you a bit! =)
