This series and the finished lapbook is absolutely stunning! I've enjoyed watching the progress. To anyone interested in creating junk journals and lapbooks, this is the ultimate inspiration. Thank you!
After watching this series (absolutely amazing).... and having so many flashbacks, memories stimulated from my childhood, and even though I’m only 60, I have decided to change my status from old, pensioner, and all those other names. I am VINTAGE.
Actually, you are in the kindergarten of maturity 😎😀
Wonderful thought! Some younger people here in Europe name us „boomer „ and they don’t mean it gentle…🤷🏼♀️, but your idea is just great❤️❤️❤️❤️
I know this two years old, but I have thoroughly enjoyed watching this series, and will be going back to the beginning to try my hand at making my own. I love all of the flips and flaps and pockets and tucks. It's fun!
The fabric turned out a big win, so professional. Glad it wasn't a wash...love the lapbook too!!! Thank you for sharing!
Wow, we can call this a REAL COOL LAPBOOK.
You are so good at showing us how to do it. Thousand thanks!
While watching you fill each pocket and envelope I couldn't but think what an awesome botanist's field journal this would make! I can just imagine tucking away different dried flowers and leaves, and pictures of the fields or forests where they came from. I love how it turned out, especially with the classic literature scattered about. Thanks for sharing!
I'm so glad I'm the type of person to skip to the ending of the end of the story. After seeing the finished product, I can't wait to watch the "middle of the story"! I've been busy corralling all the parts and pieces to get started. Since I'm the type of person who needs a purpose for things, I have a hard time adding things that don't have a purpose. So, that being said, my lap book is going to be a gift for my sister. As I am the keeper of our mom's "stuff" the lap book will be about her. Pictures, love letters, her school work, pay stubs etc. Thank goodness for pack-rat parents! Unfortunately, my mom is in the middle/end stage of Alzheimer's Disease, and her stories to us are permanently locked away from us. Collecting stories and memories from family will be a fun project. I hope it turns out well. Thanks for giving me a path to follow/wander in this memory journey.
Cheers! Leslie (Sorry my post is so long... :)
First off, thank you so much for showing us how to make this amazing fun-filled folio. The time you spent to make it AND film it for us, is a gift. I imagine that this is something I could make for my new niece and new nephew as a keepsake. It would be something for them to take in the car to keep busy and to keep their secret notes with all of those hiding places. ...And wow, did that fabric come out cool. Love it, def ethnic vibe. Reminds me of my tie-dyeing days but an updated style. Thanks Nik.
Absolutely wider spine! Mine is SOOOOO full, but fabulous! It’s been so fabulous making this along with you. Mine is full of goodies to make and add to journals.....but I love just opening up all the bits and pieces as an interactive activity in itself!! Just so much fun Nik! Thanks so much for this journey!😘👍
I have lived this whole series! You e given me lots of ideas.
People in these photos don’t smile because it took several minutes to take one photo. A solemn face is much easier to maintain than a smile. In my family if kids kept their solemn face, after the photo they got candy!
There's no way this lapbook could have turned out better. Loved every bit of the full series. I don't often drop everything I'm doing to jump on something that inspired me to do so...but this one I did. (which isn't to say I'm particularly good at finishing projects before I start new ones...but this one was an immediate re-direct)
Many thanks for sharing this with us all. You make having given up tv so easy.
oh so awesome Nik! Love the dyed fabric and the finishing touches in the lap book. You did inspire me to make one. It was so fun. Worked right along side your videos playing on the iPad. You are such a blessing. Thanks for all the wonderful projects you share. You are such a special lady.
OMGOsh! that fabric came out absolutely gorgeous!
I know this is from two years ago, but I still can't believe how amazing your construction and how incredible you are! Thank you for the inspiration
I totally enjoyed this series, so much fun watching to see what idea comes next. Simply amazing to me Thanks a Bunch for sharing Hugs and Smiles
Have loved the lap book series Nik. I think I’m gonna have to start again and binge watch them all whilst doing a book of my own. Love your humour!! Thanks for sharing
My mom was a computer programmer back in the day when the computer took up a whole room and I remember those computer punch cards. I even have some myself. Good advice to make the spine wider. Very cool fabric! You are the master, Nik! TFS the inspiration and creativity!
I know I'm 2 years late to the party but I absolutely loved this tutorial! I just finished making my lapbook following this and its my favorite think I've EVER made!!!
Wow!! It turned out beautiful!! The fabric, I mean! The lapbook is cool too, but wow! The fabric!
What a fabulous lapbook. I love that there are lots of pockets and envelopes and such.
absolutely loved this series! really great being able to hang out w you & see your process, I learned a lot! such a cool project 💞and the ice dye is fabulous!
Good morning Nik. Enjoyed the process of the lap books, amazing. It is a work of art and talent. I want to be you when I grow up! Let’s see more creations.🌟
I love watching your videos, have not seen one yet that I did not love. Thank you so much for sharing your talents.💞
Wow, it’s awesome Nik !! I’ve enjoyed all 12 videos of you sharing the making of your 1 of a kind Lapbook !! Thank you very much for the discount in your stores and I will be taking advantage of that.
Your material you ice died turned out really great … good going … well done !!! Thanks Nik for sharing your wonderful talent will us, we love you for it ❤️❤️❤️
Sad to see the last Lap Book episode - it's been a fabulous series. The result is awesome! Snow pic and ice-dyeing - pretty cool!!!
Spent my last two and a half days watching these videos again. I bet I’ll be doing that again cause there’s so much to learn. Should have watched these with a pencil and paper in hand to take notes and remember to think about the steps before taking the steps. Forethought is not exactly my forte as well. I have two covers all ready to go for a lapbook of my own. I wish I had found something like yours but no luck. However one of the covers is this super gorgeous tuscan orange. Please make more of these lapbooks. Maybe one specifically for a teacher. Lov’ya Nik! 💕❤️💕
I loved this series. Thank you Nik. There is one thing missing in this lapbook- an old fountain pen! BLESSINGS
I'm a little sad this series has come to an end...it was really, really, really fun to watch!! I loved everything about it and how the lap book turned out Nik! And as for the ice dying....WOW!!!! Truly Fantastic!!! I must say!! xo
Totally loved the book covers used on this project Nik.
It will be one lucky persons treasured possession for sure.
I'd be using that for a great trip, record keeper.
Don't forget to add a nice pen or pemcil. There's enough room, just. 😂
As for the dyed fabric. Really liked that.
Does anyone else see animal heads and torsos... Just staring out the cloth....weirdly all dressed in shirts.?
Proper trippy. 😊
Yes I enjoyed it so much .. learned a few nice “tricks”!! You make it so much fun to listen yo your videos!! Thank you!!
This series has been delightful! Thank you.
oh my gosh that ice dying at the end is spectacular. I'm not sure I followed the folding but wow.
I love love love this project and going to make a lap book ! Was t interested until I saw your tutorial
I loved this series. I’m recuperating from surgery so I didn’t make alongside you but I definitely want to. Thank you!
Amazing series ! Start to finish !! Your final book is a treasure !
Thank you for teaching us how to make the lap book. It was great.
Very cool; I think one of these empty would be a nice gift and ppl can fill them up with keepsakes, notes, tickets, etc. Like a smash book, only better!
Thank you so much for sharing your passion and make it ours.
I really enjoyed this lapbook series. Thank you for sharing how to make this book. Can't wait to see what you are doing next. Love your humor also.
That fabric is awesome!11
The fabric at the end !! OH MY WORD ! STUNNING !! AND THAT PATTERN ! ahem.. sorry for shouting ... got a little too excited there .. ( smile ) ....
Wow this whole process has been amazing to watch! Absolutely beautiful lapbook!
I was embellishing my book today and now watching your video, it reminds me so much of a little (big) girl playing! So cute!
Great series, Nik! Lapbooks are so much fun! The fabric you created is gorgeous! Looks like a fun technique.
Hello Nik - I love the lapbook project, and your dye project was fantastic. What a wonderful pattern. When you said "ice cube" dying, I envisioned freezing colored water into ice cubes and letting them melt. I did Kool-Aid dying, of floss and yarn with my students one year, and that was the method. It is less of a mess if the students don't have the powder in their hands. Thank you for always sharing your knowledge and talent so generously. I am looking forward to creating a lap book a la Nik in the near future.
Wow! Thank you for that tie dye run through! Love it!!
Addendum - That fabric is gorgeous! It looks like a stained glass window!
Wow, that ice-dying took me back to the '60's in a big way! I love the lapbook, this has been such a good series... you share the best stuff! TY
Your work is so professional. I would cherish a lap book from you Nik. You are truly gifted. Thank you for these videos. I’m going to try and make one of these, but I know already it will never be as nice as yours. :)
What an awesome series!!! Thanks so much for all the information and sharing your wonderful talents. :)
Definitely a WIN! And a sale too! Happy happy happy Thankee muchly
Fabulous. Thank you so much. This was the best yet.
Wow!!! That fabric turned out amazeballs!
I've been following you through this project. OMG😱 I'm crazy about it. I was trying to make one with you, but got called into service with my grandchildren and foster grandchildren. My daughter had to go out of town. So I've spent the last 14 days caring for them. Six of them. So I had to save your videos. When you said you needed washi but didn't have any there I was yelling Nic it's right there in your book lol thanks so much for all you do. Big fan here
Absolutely fantastic project, I’ve saved it all of course, brilliant.Thank you xx💚
Beautiful lapbook and wonderful inspiration. If I try to do that ice dyeing and it doesn't look like yours, I'm comin for ya girl. ♥♥♥♥♥
Just loved watching this series! Thank you for sharing!
Oh how great the fabric came out. What a great idea. Love it.
I love the lapbook! The book you used for the cover, WOW, I need one. You always have such amazing ideas. Thanks for sharing your creativity with us. The dyed fabric looks great. Maybe one of these days I will try it
Love the lapbook but that fabric is stunning the colors are fabulous!
Nik, thanks for this series. This lap book is fabulous!
This series has been wonderful! I will be watching it again and again! I wish I could tell you how many people all over UA-cam have been watching and mentioning this series! Thank you!
I love this series! Can’t wait to try my hand at it. I have two different books from a series of books that will work. I want to do my book as a tribute to the creative women in my family, the quilters and embroiderer sand crocheters. Should be fun. You’re killing me with the ice dying at the end, it’s so cool and I have the perfect fabric. Thank you.
I have enjoyed watching and learning during this process thank you
I loved watching the "Lets Make a Lapbook", so inspiring and I cannot wait to find just the right books to create one of my own. So very much enjoy watching your videos, thank you for sharing your talents!
Love love love the series. I’m new to this, so have started collecting papers and cool stuff to make this lap book. I’m off to find an AMAZING old book cover (3” thick spine) for I want to use this to hold lots of cool stuff. THANK YOU for all that you teach us!
I very much enjoyed watching this series of making your lapbook. Its inspired me to make one of my own! Your lapbook came out awesome! Loved it! On another note, the sale is also awesome. .. thanks so much! 😊
I watched the whole 12 in one sitting. Now I'm making one myself. I didn't have pretty covers so I'm covering mine with tea dyed muslin. We'll see how that goes. Thank you for this brilliant tutorial. I didn't have one moment of confusion. Very well done indeed! Thank you so much. I was just a little bit upset when you covered up that pretty blue paper. ha ha
That is SO yummy I can't stand it. I may try making one similar, for my jet-set ting cousin. Thanks, you're so awesome!!
I really enjoyed the lapbook series, I am inspired to done my own one day soon. Thanks for your videos, ideas and inspirations they are fab!
I LOVED this series! Brilliant! 😊
Well the ice dyeing was an epic success! Wow
Love this series. As for the not smiling in photos thing, if those are reproductions of real vintage photos, then yes, they are all like that. Smiling in photos was seen as frivolous and inappropriate. There's also the historical fact that you had to stay still, sometimes even several minutes, for the photo. Smiles falter pretty quick if you have to force it.
I really enjoyed this series. It was fun to see what you were going to come up with. The ice dying turned out amazing, too! WOW! THAT is something I'd love to try out. I'll be checking out your sale for sure. Thank you so much, Nik!
This series - utterly fantastic!!!
Oh my word..... I felt glee when i saw this video come up! Good grief this is an amazing project!! How much fun is this?? Thoroughly have enjoyed this entire journey/saga/process!
Omfw! Great fabric!!
This was a great series! I really enjoyed it! Thanks.
I have been on Cloud 9 with this series! My 'stuff' took forever to arrive, so I'm, like, clear back on the steps from vid #2, but still....loving this so much, I got sorta emotional to know that there won't be more episodes to the Lap book. Still, another Seraphina is something to look forward to....AND cannot wait to see the little bookcase. LOVED the ice dying--a total win. Looks heck and gone easier than my old tie-dying escapades .....emphasis on 'old' as in old hippie.... Thanks for all you share with us, Nik. It means more than I have words to express.
Love this NIk. So much variety!
Magnificent! I loved every minute of it and hate to see it end. I would be happy to see you add extension upon extension. :)
It look so great 👍 ❤ thanks for sharing with us ❤ it is always fun to look your Videos Nic ☺
This series was absolutely fabulous! And your fabric is amazing! Big wins on both!😊
I have loved every single second of this series! My two oldest daughters raved about the first one I made, and people in the fb group were very kind and encouraging with their comments...Thanks to all! I am almost finished with the bare bones of the second one. I purchased a set of the encyclopedias you used for your lap book, $3.50 each for a set of 10, with free shipping! Score!!!
Thank you, Nik, for your talent, imagination, and attention to detail with each of your tutorials and classes. You are truly inspiring!
I love this book! I love your videos and soooo look forward to them!! Thanks for sharing,
Thank you, Nik! I've been working nights, so I've been watching this in the morning before bed & at night after bed! I love the Lapbook, and thanks for showing us start to finish. I always learn something cool from you!!
Watched the whole series today! Love this!
This series was so good! Thank you for sharing.
totally enjoyed this series thanks Nik 🦋 cheers Donna
I heard people didn’t smile in pictures because it took so long for the film to expose. They would have to sit for like 10 or 20 minutes without moving. So they usually didn’t smile. This came out really great. And I agree it needs a wider spine. Hope the fabric came out well.
Un grand MERCI à vous pour toutes ces vidéos ... j'ai beaucoup aimé ce travail et toutes les belles idées que vous avez !!! J'adore le résultat d'un style inconnu pour moi.... Encore merci :-)))))
I really loved watching this series! ☺️. I finally started watching your videos. I think your great and very talented. I have two sons with ADHD. I wish they would use their energy to use their talents. They both are very talented in different ways. Enough about me. Now I know what a Lap Book is. I might try to make one.
I really love the way your fabric turned out. A wonderful way to tie dye. I've never heard of that way. Since I watched these videos late, I've missed your sale. Oh well, maybe next time.
This is one of the best series I have seen in a very long time!! I would like to use this idea to make a journal for my sister who just accompanied my niece and gr. niece on her make a wish trip to Disney a month back! (my gr. niece is 4 and just finished all her treatments for neuroblastoma, she is now healthy and on the road to being a "normal" 4 year old little girl) Thank you for all the inspiration!! I will try to film the process! But, I am quite sure I won't be as quick as you were!!! Always, Leslie
Thank you Nik for sharing this project with us☺️ your talents shared are much appreciated💛✨ your ice dying turned out pretty unique lol I don't know if my eyes are playing tricks on me or not but I can see what looks like a person at least the outline of something similar?? It's so cool that's for sure! Gentle hugs teach✨💛💛 thanks again! ☮
Im sad to see you done with this but excited to watch the next adventure. Now, if only I could finish mine before you move on. :) LOVE LOVE LOVE the tie dye!!
Gorgeous lapbook and beautiful fabric!
Crafter's on YT have been talking about, wanting to make and saying "Nik made one" so I had to watch...all 12. I love the paper, this reminds me of a K.Orta foto folio that I did. I have got to make one of these and use up a lot of paper ! Loved all the videos and how your lapbook turned out !
Finished off in fine Nik style! You never disappoint me!! I heard about the blizzard and I will try to send you some 80 degree weather, but it's going to get cold here too.... bummer... Yet ice dyeing is so much fun!!!
Loved the dyed fabric...a big win!
Thankyou soooo much for your creativity
Looooove the lapbook so much and loooove the fabric wow. We got snow today here in Montana too, 😭
