    You know, I saw this, printed out one of my short stories, and I made a ~book~. I don't even... like, within an hour, I now have this beautiful book, I even decorated the front! I oftenstruggle profusely with executive dysfunction, and creative block. But you've got the magic,your video easily inspired me!!!

    I AM DOING THIS!!! Thank you for your very clear tutorial! I'm so excited as I can make a little book without getting out the awl and all the sewing stuff.

    I'm very-very glad you made a tutorial about tab binding!! I'm severely visually impaired, so my experience of typical binding has been a struggle & frustrating to say the least. Couldn't do the sew binding or the staple method or gluing together folded pages, no matter how large the magnification. The stretchy bands & ribbon didn't last long, either. Three-hole binders have been my 'only' method for almost twelve years. However, tab binding has been a Godsend! This extremely useful & EASY approach has given me so many possibilities for binding new creations. The contrasting colors of the pages & covers & having strips as tabs, fuel my excitement. I have several greeting card projects, now in the works! I got many happy tears accomplishing this on my own & listening to your friendly 'teaching' voice has been a game-changer!~TY very-very much!

    I'm glad you took the time to explain putting each page in as well as signatures. I've watched other creators do this, but they went through it so fast I didn't catch on to it. You are an excellent teacher, Natassa. Thank you for sharing. 🙂❤️

    What a great tutorial! Natasa, you always explain every detail and steps so well. This is the perfect solution for a “labor of love” I’m working on for my siblings. I found my parents engagement/wedding book that my mother tells the story of how she and my father met, became engaged, married and their honeymoon and first years together. I didn’t know how I was going to bind it together to look cohesive and elegant at the same time, but this is perfect. Again, thank you for another wonderful tutorial. 💜

I hope you know that your training/teaching videos are just so clear - concise - uncomplicated - and very well communicated. I have been following you for a couple of years now and can say without a doubt that you are the best paper arts teacher I have found. Anywhere. And I take a lot of classes!!

    Great Video.
    I teach book binding and journaling at my local Senior center. One of the ideas is to use various stickers, button, beads etc to decorate the ends of the inside tabs as well as the outside tabs or paint with acrylic paint.
    I also place wide sticky tape or light strips of fabric over center of inside sections when I have signatures to add more stability to my book, still plenty of room for movement of signatures as well as filling them up!
    Sometimes using " Stitch Witchery" to get super good bind with strips, of course this requires using an iron.
    Happy Tabbing!

    Perfect timing! My husband and I had our 50th wedding anniversary and our kids gave us a party. We have a multitude of cards and I was not sure how I could bind together and now I know! I had a card party for a surprise birthday celebration during covid. I have tried adding the cards to a book by gluing the back on pages but I didn't get many in before it became a bulky "mess". I've been waiting to figure out what to do with my anniversary cards and I think I can "redeem my birthday cards too, with a little ingenuity! TFS ❤❤❤
