I somehow read the title as how you filled 72 sketch books, I was amazed 😂
hahah :DDDD
Yeah me too, lol!
Me tooo lol
me too
Lmaoooo sameee!!!
dream job. just skilled, repetitive manual labour all day everyday. surrounded by beautiful, rustic antique-ish things. you are living the life
Have you ever made a video talking about how your business came to be? Like when you started it and advice for anyone who wants to start their own? I just feel like I'd trust your advice 😆💙
i haven't yet but i have an old video where i talked about how changing my focus help my business growth here: ua-cam.com/video/1sKDEpHr1G8/v-deo.html
it's probably not the most comprehensive one but i hope it gives you an idea. let me know if you'd like to know more. thanks so much for your interest & thanks for spending the time watching my videos!!
@@lescargot.papier thank you, I'll definitely watch that asap! 🥰 I'd always love to learn more about what it's like running a business like this. I noticed you are really organized which is another thing I need to learn from you for my own business 😅 Also if you've never done a day in the life running your business, or balancing life and work, that could be a cool idea as well! 💛
I’m a bookmaker too and I commend you because I couldn’t imagine binding that many by myself in such a short amount of time.
Halo darkwriterxx94.... lets connected, I love drawing,,
I am learning more and more from you and love these creating and packing videos that you so generously put on for us! Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Thanks so much for watching my videos! It really means a lot to me
I enjoy making hardbound watercolor sketchbooks with Arches or Fabriano Artistico paper also and use the same method. It is relaxing in some ways but they make great gifts too. I really love the handmade paper which I spray varnish outside to protect and cover with a clear adhesive paper so any water would not cause bleeding through. The mulberry paper and others are just gorgeous and inexpensive. I made an extra large one for myself 16 x 10 closed and hope to fill it for my family. You have great work ethic and your process is exactly the way it should be done. I hope that you get many orders as many others I have seen just are wonky looking. Hahnemule company finally came out with a professional hardbound watercolor journal that is much nicer than Etchr but it still doesn’t compare to the sweat and love that an artisan can do.
Such wonderfully filmed efficiency; done with absolutely admirable grace and success.
I absolutely love the "natural" background noises (whatever was there in the times that you edited into the video). My favorites are the parts with no music & real time. They give the illusion of being in a artisain/crafts person meetup, and I get so much of my own things done, being in the company of another "maker", who's also focused on making.
I stumbled upon this video by chance after seeing it in my UA-cam suggestions and I wanted to say how much I enjoyed it. It was incredibly soothing and it's absolutely fascinating watching the process. I don't know how you made 72 sketchbooks in five days. One sketchbook in 3 months would be daunting enough for me. I'm definitely bookmarking your shop for when I can afford a special sketchbook. I hope you have a wonderful day!
If I managed ONE as nice as yours in five days, it would be a miracle. Well done!!
hi sheila singhal... lets connected
I just stumbled upon your shop and was so sad that most of the sketchbooks were sold out (but also congrats!) Patiently waiting for the chance to buy a repurposed one~
Thank you so much!
This reminds me of my book mending days at the library where I work! I never sewed signatures, but we did have the tools and thread, and I've been shown how to do it. 9/we always sent those books to a commercial bindery). So relaxing to watch!
These are probably my favourite videos to watch, so relaxing yet motivating at the same time ❤ keep em coming 😁❤
Wow, I really loved this video. This is the first time I’ve ever laid here and watched an entire process of sketchbook making. Glad this was the first video of yours I’ve ever came across, I look forward to more! Honestly, such a beautiful video with a beautiful skill. You’re phenomenal 💛
Such a relaxing watch. You work so tidily and neatly. Your finished articles are so lovely. Including the scraps, which were delightful. 👏
I did these type of thing when I was younger, thanks for the "refresh" I had forgoten some parts of it. Good video.
This was one of the most relaxing videos I’ve ever watched. Thank you for showing us your craft it was inspiring ❤️🤓
your craftsmanship is phenomenal. thank you for sharing your process. capturing all this i imagine it's hard but you nailed it with a pleasantly aesthetic appeal how amazing! kudos to you
That is a lot of work! You make it look easy but we all know better. Beautiful books and I love the idea of repurposing old books
This is SO COOL!! Always wanted to learn how to book bind
Wow, you really know your sh..paper !
So skillful. So crafty. So creative. So productive. So enjoyable !
Thank you so much 😊
Love your work. Listened to this while doing some sewing
What an interesting video and your passion for what you do is very obvious. You are a master at your craft. And this video was very ASMRish and incredibly relaxing to watch!
Amazing! Also that clip on jar hack for the thread is clever.
HI R L... halo
Hey there... I stumbled on your vid, I know all about this struggle myself lol. Iam a full time professional artist and Bookbinder, trying to split time between the 2. I started out using old book covers and mass making the same covers myself . When I built my new studio and Bindery, I was able to get all the upgrades that I wanted and the room to put it all. I make all my own hand marbled papers for the end pages, the marbling bath table i made is very large it self. I specifically use goatskin leather from Italy and France.. i do 24K gold gilding, i do blind stamping and under the cover imbossing. I bought an old vintage press and and added tons of table space around the studio and bindery. I buy all the 100% cotton papers and watercolor papers in industrial rolls ( when available) and have walls full of paper and leather lol. I make everything from scratch now and its all custom, but it is an even longer process, which slows me down drastically. I miss these days of get a huge quantity of books done, in a small space lol.. pretty impressive. I also restore very old and rare books as well, sometimes they are so rare and old, it makes me extremely nervous knowing If I mess up... there are NO spare books of its kind to take pieces and parts from, to keep it " in original state ". it can be calming, yet unnerving sometimes to do binding. I keep telling myself to start filming everything, but I also need to get artwork done for the gallery I have a contract with, ontop of teaching private art/binding lessons... iam spread to thin as it is. I actually working now in my studio and bindery late night ( as always) trying to catch up. I always have random art vids and bookbinding vids playing on my studio monitors while iam in here. So your vid caught my attention and I decided to procrastinate for a few minutes to say high and watch you kick some A** lol. Good stuff.
Love the sound of bending books💗🌌
こうやって作られよんかぁぁぁあああ！！！
真似したくてもできん器用な技術や〜！
凄いな〜素敵だわっ！！！🥹🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼
Smoothing out the binding tape is devine
If you made 72 sketchbooks in 5 days, and assuming you worked 10 hour days (of course taking regular breaks for meals, etc), that means almost 1.5 books every hour! Even not including making the cover from scratch, that's still a lot of sketchbooks! Now that's hustle! RESPECT!
What a wonderfully satisfying video :)
Loved every single second
this was a good watch, Thank You
This is so peaceful and anime-like. You are truly living the life 🌷.
Now I feel like making my own sketchbook just to feel peaceful.
Definitely gonna buy from you as soon as I fill half of my stacked up empty sketchbooks

This is my type of asmr
hello, I wish you and your family a nice day ❤️this video is exactly what I need. I have a wonderful book that was not well bound, I hope it will be fixed
Embossing the image on the book cover is a great idea!
hi marlene morris... lets connected
Way COOL ! 🎨🔥🔥🔥❤️
Hii there.. 🥳,it makes me happy watching your vedios.I totally enjoyed the vlog❤.
Thank you so much 😊
How exciting
You have an amazing skill.
72, l am still working in how to make easier to put a book apart to create a book with the cover. it takes me about 20 to 30 minutes to do that so at this speed l will make 1 a day if l am lucky. Mean time enjoy your process you got it.
Beautiful I love your work
Thank you! 😊
Congrats!
I'm not trying to be dramatic, but...SEVENTY TWO SKETCHBOOKS IN FIVE DAYS?! YOU JUST MADE THE IMPOSSIBLE POSSIBLE!!!
Hi I love ur vids and ur Channel so much I was just wondering if you make a hard book covers by hand or do you get them from like a manufacturer or something like that
You did a great Job!
Hi Mel Pinkbujo... lets connected,, I Love drawing,,
Love this. Where did you find the arches in packs like this?
Quel beau travail !
Halo.... huguette paris... lets connected,
Have you ever done bookcloth bookbinding with vintage cloth material? I am curious how it will turn out. Btw good luck with your bookbinding making 72 books within 5 days sure a lot of work.
HOLA SALUDOS DESDE LOS CABOS MEXICO: wow que paciencia para hacer eso!!!
hi miriam buenrostro,,,, lets connected
Amazing
Want to be just as good as you are. You are an excellent bookbinder. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and Know how!
Hi! I’m new to book binding and just came across your channel. This is such a beautiful video, I learned so much. I wanted to ask you, what do you do with all the remaining pieces of paper? I really don’t want to throw it in the garbage it makes me feel so bad.
Thank you so much for sharing your process it is inspiring, and greetings from Mexico 💕
You can send it to a friend who makes paper, or you can make them into paper yourself with those smaller pieces. For the bigger pieces, you can make them in to miniature sketchbooks like those that I made toward the end of the video. ;)
gosto muito do seu trabalho!!!
You work very hard
First I thought you complete 72 sketchbooks in five days with your drawings 😭😭😭
I’m grateful there isn’t any awful music with this video. Interesting
Where do you get all those recycled hardcovers? I love how you've repurposed them💗💗💗💗
Woww, this is so cool!! 🌸
By the way, where do you get your rings from? They are so pretty!
Thank you. I got them from Aliexpress. ;)
Hey! What was the powder that you used on the leopard moth square notebooks?
Vendo isso agora, eu começo a valorizar muito mais os meus sketch books
Somos duas brasileiras aki então kssks
Estou vendo isso agora, vejo que dá muito trabalho para fazer. Admiro pessoas que desenham... queria ter esse dom.
It's mesmerizing how you're able to do these so precisely and tenderly. What is that tool you're using at 5:40? It looks like a compass, but it's thicker?
thank you so much!! the item you saw at 5:40 is a thread clipper :D
Hello, Can someone help me out with a glueing problem please ? I tried my second book now and again glue ran in between pages... so when I open it , the paper was a bit damaged. I did use a french stitch and paper of 300g. How can I prevent this ?
wow , what kind of paper do you use , thats so good
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
I see you're measuring each book before you punch holes, but it seems you use the same widths for the stitches (I could be wrong though). Wouldn't it be much handier to make a punching mold (with a punching cradle) so you don't need to remeasure everything all the time? It's the first thing we learned in class an it's a real timesaver
thanks so much for sharing your tips!! i’ve thought about making a punching mold but (it might not be obvious in the video) a lot of the time i make sketchbooks from damaged book covers which are different in sizes that lead to the measurements become slightly different every time and because of that it’s not ideal to use a standard measurement for them all. perhaps it would be useful for the ones with the same size like the leopard moth sketchbooks but then again, because i make them to often i know exactly where each mark go when i place the signatures on the cutting mat which makes me lazy to try out the punching mold i guess 😅😅
where do you buy your paper from?
Это волшебно! Ты - мастер 👍 Что за бумага, очень приятно выглядит? ❤️
I'm not sure I understand your question correctly, but if you were asking about the paper, I used Hahnemühle watercolor paper for the sketchbooks in day 1, and Arches watercolor paper for the rest of the project :D
Посмотрела цену на эту бумагу 😅
@@hannahdavidovich да? А я побаиваюсь😁 😂
On day2 where are the covers from?
Hi! May I know where you find the supplier for the paper for making those sketchbooks? I just feel like starting the business on my own but I didn't know where to find it 🥹 btw I love you videos!!
This is something i'd want to do but i feel like no one would buy from me
You won't know unless you try doing it. That is what was stopping me too, but today I decided to clean up my room to finally do it! 😎 I have been watching and learning for the past 2 years, enough now, it's time.
you can start by offering custom orders where the customers pay up-front and you only start making when order(r) is/are guaranteed. that was how i started :D
yes!! kudos to that! wishing you the best!!
@@lescargot.papier I want it too but I want to use real leather at the same time I want to use paper to decorate the covers
Where do you get your book covers? They’re so nice
the ones in this video i found in a garage sale. they were all damaged vintage readers.
great,, so talented, lets connected,, I love drawing....
So Unds so amazing. My eye is so droopy rn . Bouta nmhave the best sleep of my life
10:15 also! What do you use these peices for?
Muy bueno. :)
Hi. Just want to ask what kind of paper did you used for sketch book making? Thank you so much for sharing your skills. God bless
I used two different kinds in this video, Arches & Hahnemühle that I've included in the video description. ;)
@@lescargot.papier thank you so much for your reply
Where in the work do you get your book covers??
she said she gets them from garage sales
If you don't mind me asking you what materials do you use for these sketchbook do you a video on the materials you use for making these sketchbooks if not could you please make on would love to watch it thank you.
Have you tried reading the description?
I know this is beside the point of the beautiful video and it's aesthetic, but I noticed that you have the fingernail polish on the left hand and not the right. I'd honestly be interested to learn the backstory on that, if you don't mind sharing. :)
I'm always thinking, I should make my own sketchbook, wouldn't that be fun? Then I watch a video like this and think too complicated!
Doing it as a job? Repetitive piece work, no thank you.
If you invest in a few basic tools, it can be rewarding to make your own sketchbooks, kettle stitching is a bit too much, there are simpler techniques.
@@rl2117 I did see some methods using glue I might try. Sewing is a non starter.
What do you use to edit your videos
I use iMovie.
May i ask how much is the sketch book and do you ship to Singapore? Thank you.
the sketchbook prices are between $35 to $65 depending on the type of paper and how much paper i need to use for each sketchbook. i currently only offer shipping to US and Canadian addresses only. i hope to be able to ship internationally soon.😉
Please any one tell me that grean and checks bord on table please
It’s called a cutting mat.
@@gabrielaart1 thanks ☺
Do you worry about oils from your ungloved hands affecting the paper?
Where do you sell these and what are the price ranges?
thanks so much for your interest ! i have a website where i sell my sketchbooks at lescargotpapier.com or you can find me on etsy under the same name ‘lescargotpapier’ too.
@@lescargot.papier thank you so much. Do you send overseas? I’m from Australia and i think your journals are great but postage may be more expensive than it’s worth,no offence intended. I would be after a writing journal book approx 7x5 inch depending on postage expenses please?
You are working way too hard for the amount that you charge. Beautiful work.
halo cupcake cottage studio... lets connected, I love drawing,
How can I buy some of your books
thanks so much for your interest ! i have a website where i sell my sketchbooks at lescargotpapier.com or you can find me on etsy under the same name ‘lescargotpapier’ too.
i just wish you wouldnt speed up the film tho, i put it as slow as it will go, but i still cant catch up, but you do a killer job!!
Can you do a giveaway on these sketchbooks
I thought you would be drawing , sketching and painting in these 72 sketchbooks ...etc..
Why? In 2022 we have huge stores with millions of these sketchbooks
it's 2022 why is your name eugene
Because there is joy in the creation of these.
Because these look way nicer than machine produced sketchbooks
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍🥰🥰👍👌💞💞💞💞
Hi easy recipes channel... lets connected, I love drawing,,
I'm disappointed that there are parts with music and frenzic speed up. I tried to skip but it wasn't relaxing. Only parts of this video are made to be ASMR and those parts are great.

Halo EGO narciss... lets connected,
Wow, a business where 80% of all goods are sold out. Not such a good thing. If I can't get what I want when I want why not give my business to companies that can provide for my needs. If love to support small business, but you people must do better. When one works for themselves they must be better.
Every UA-camr has a store. One must be vigilante or they drawn.
Hi philip stroll.. lets connected,, I love drawing..
what you said is just straight up negative
@@manisinterlude it must certainly is not. It's what people whom want to be self sufficient and self employed in a highly competitive world where mommy and daddy don't hold your hand needs to hear. If you don't like it, maybe don't go so far or of your way to read it and offend yourself AND take the time to comment. Lol something maybe you needed to hear as well. Also, not for nothing the planet wouldn't turn without a negative charge. It's literally what makes life in this planet possible numb nut. Grow up.
