It's in the journalism. Asus and all book itself is like a small sketch vocal whatever you choose, like or maybe some bucket list ideas you can right here. And this projects take like, Lesin two minutes. And don't look on the duration of the video off the class because I included if you message And if you keep videos, so it, um it is longer than 10 minutes off Muslim, and I really want to show you how you can make it. It's really separatism. And this time you can actually make it with the. Since you already have at home, you don't need much tools and materials, so I hope you will enjoy this data 2. Supplies: for this day while you simple need some office pipe of the color you want and a ruler at pencil Ah Zan Sarette Hands and legal to a few your paper blocks. Ah, you'll also need some paperclips and then choose so wallpaper or cards on for your car when exists and even hallucinate a glue and scissors. Let's start our dear Why? 3. Cover Material & Size: for the cover. You can take some scrapbooking paper exists, for example, with a green or just simple Awan. Ah, I will pay for you. Have some. I lags is a break kind off effect. So I'm gonna use this piece. But you can also use some fabric, for example, like for laser Or maybe like a cotton. But cotton is not really sick. So you need to make it sick. It and it will like called the shape. Although you can also use felt and I'm going to you, I'm going to use these wallpaper so as we have like a six former notebook we need, it's so little bigger. It is like 16th centimeters. So my notebook And like even if I have, if you want, they will fit here. And I wanted to have a Felipe free so you can understand what I mean. Sleep. I want this extra part. So is it to my I chose almost almost rented six centimeters. So I hope you understand the measurements and I also know them on the screen. And I believe that disease can hold like so three notebooks together Really great. And its next three does. I will show you three fasting and Mrs off textbooks and also some deeps is it gay and save you to him? 4. Step 1: Fold paper: The first process is to fold the paper. You hold it in half. I also used a ruler that help me make clean fold ends. And I folded a king. So your fault twice each paper. If you use a five paper, you just fold it once. And you also miss Step two, which is about the cartons of ages repeats. The folding process was always a paper you have. 5. Step 2: Cut/Trim Paper: before we can make actual paper blocks, we need Teoh gods that apart that Bruins us from opening pages. I will show you three options. 1st 1 East paper knife. You take a role, Um, and be sure that you hold it Firm Looser doesn't slide slick in my case and got it. My life wasn't really sharp, so I couldn't cut it. And the paper waas fizzling. Actually, if your knife is sharp, then it's really a great option for you. Just got through to three millimeters above Second option is scissors, which helped me Teoh make a killin age after their life. I would advise you to draw a line with a pencil and then cut it. It's much more easier, and you can help all of the pages always accept toe size and certain option he's got. It's super easy, but it can also be a little bit confusing because so if you got it like free fans, their size off each paper can be different a little bit. So I would also advise you to draw a line before and then only Carter to ease the Qatar 6. Step 3: Make Paper Blocks: Now it's time to make paper books. Ah, collect your shades off. Label in color or do you perform? If you use just white paper, just collect him. I advise you to use with 6 10 sheets of paper. So you have, like, 12 20 pages in each one. But the mop religious you have is a hard date. Will be toe my exam even off the same size. So you need Teoh. Uh oh, God, is that ages? 7. Tip 1 How to save time and fasten notebook to the cover: so I actually record. It's sorry first in Mrs, but I wanted to give you a tip. Whatever message to your choose you can already fast in your coward, please. A notebook so you don't need to have, like one more extra step fleet and bring listserv facil light So and so in Syria for its remains, it's like stable look, using seven mission and pencil in this one and before I show you each step in the video in details or faster and notebooks on the notebooks. Before that, I'm Aidan U V does there, in which I explain how you confessed in your notebook to the cover already, even if you have two or three notebooks. So ah, keep watching to see what I mean by sit. 8. Watch Before Fastening #1 Stapler: So let's start with the ones that don't include seven, and it is a staple. So what you need for this if you want to first in your no book? If you're using, like paper, scrapbooking paper, it's much easier to fascinate to these statements about it. Also can work always like saying fabric what you need to do. Um, Flick. Let's imagine I'm going to show you on another piece things. This will be our cover just for example. So if you have a few pieces, I advise you to fold the spine. If you Peter. So it's really flexible, then, um, before you first and was a staple What you need to just before you shoot. Measure is the size off your staple. This one's in to make room, so you need to mark hose in your notebook, Aunt, in your cover, I advise you like to clip your notebook into college together, so it helps him like, for example, exist one you so it doesn't move and you make hosts already in your no book here and here for something, and you need to use a needle to make some holes is in thank you re imagined like require click here and here, here and here, once into meter Johnson to meet him so you might calls, and then you need to Bush, you're stable inside from their cover does the notebook and you secure it with some pliers . Or you can also use even a rule toe fold the staple, and this works fine with one No, no book bottles of system. What you need for the seventh. You just you just like let's imagine that it's already crossed int what you need to oh, make a gap like 35 millimeters. So as like the notebook, it's kind of heavy sickness, so it's not really, like close together and make you host in the cover. And in the second notebook, you also put it here the equipment and what you need to do key. And here he and here and you push your next stables here and it is all secured.

Step 4: Fastening (1) Stapler: with the second option used to use a stapler. You will need a staple so we can re made some holes according to the size of it. Don't forget to secure the pages with a paper clip. The hardest part is toe actually put a staple in the horse. I have the career a long nail, so it's kind of hard for me to do it. But you can also use like pliers that can help you, so it's really easy to use players ends. Then you will need just toe secures a staple on the other side. So it's super easy. You can watch is a video tools and how I attempt with my nails to put the stable inside.
