DIY PASSWORD KEEPER, ITSY BITSY SPIDERS & ANOTHER FREEBIE!

[@brendagraw3729]

I missed you Nik!!! I feel so good after watching one of your videos. Thank you for being the unique, funny, sweet entertainer you are. By the way, love the Web site keeper journal.😆

[@406annie]

Ahhahahaha! 😅😂🤣 The ending was so cute and creative, Nik! Spiders don’t scare me (too much), though. And I NEVER turn my back on them. Love the ridiculousness - and practicality - of the password keeper! Because yes, why use it if it doesn’t look great? This cute cover could be adapted for so many things. Love the labels!! Thanks for sharing this fun project with us. 😊👍♥️ Great new camera angle, too!

[@sweetcurly28]

Amazing! It looks like it’s old and that’s why I love your work! The corners aren’t ridiculous! All the details are necessary 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@toriswanson5451]

I'm with you on those awful critters! I know they are supposed to be helpful BUT NOT INDOORS! I swear I can hear them walking as I run! Love this Lima Bean book! Thanks so much.

[@ThePaperOutpost]

The funny journey of the circle punch! I took a spider outside once and it was immediately eaten by a lizard. My hubby had a nice laugh. Great tutorial Nik! Thanks! Pam :)

[@tuthillg]

Cute idea for getting organized, Nik! Spiders suck! TFS the inspiration!

[@sandracaldwell1603]

Oh my, you are so clever (and funny). I am in awe of the stuff you create. Thank you so much. You lightened my day and gave me another project for my gigantic must make list. 😘

[@KatheD]

I LOVE this book! As a computer and security geek I *have* to tell you, don't write down your passwords! 😮 There are secure apps for that. But this fabulous book would be great for calendars, note pads, addresses, all kinds of other things (including lima bean recipes). 😀

[@tricianilsson6870]

I love your attention to detail! It’s what makes your work special. I will give it a try, you inspired me.

[@ultraviolet13881]

Nik, think I just watched this for the second time (it's now two years ago), but I am just having the best time, laughing out loud about the spider and your scream just cracked me right up. Thanks for your sense of humor and for sharing your WONDERFUL books. They have inspired me to NO END -- I am even going so far as to have my sewing machine spruced up because I want to make folios like the ones you have done on camera. They are GREAT and I hope all is well with you and your family during this crazy time!!

[@carolblair665]

Spiders hate peppermint (Mice too!). Mix 3/4 water with peppermint oil from spice rack at store. I spray around doors etc. and places like under furniture or around bed pillows (important one). We have recluse spiders here and they are bad!

[@tobygonyou5303]

loved it! thanks for the laugh. something to add to my happiness is book....thank you

[@vintagestudio7175]

Oh my goodness! This is my christmas gift to people this year! I seem to lean toward making my journals something practical people can use... I will try to post mine when they are done!

[@suruha2306]

OMG! You are a hoot! Thanks! I really needed a good chuckle! The password booklet is neat! I'd lose it, though! I 'forward' the 'sign up' or 'password changed' e-mails that come from the sites where I am registered back to myself after adding the password as the message. Then, I store them all in on folder in my mail. I can always find them! LOL Thank you, ma'm!

[@mywithallmyart]

I absolutely adore your videos!!! You inspire me AND you make me laugh!!!

[@melindagoodermote4305]

Oh my gosh your hysterical!!! Love this password book ....... oh no I mean Lima bean recipe book!!! Lol

[@mariep-MAPAT]

As a fellow arachnophobiac (is that even a word?, well I guess it is now! lol!) I totally can relate! I had to phone my 20 years old son who was upstairs in his room yesterday at 1 am to help me (he wasn't asleep, luckily for me), cause I couldn't go to bed due to a huge spider on the living room door, blocking my way out! No way I would go too close to this monster! But My son is my hero! He opened the door very slowly, and was able to catch the spider between a cardboard and a glass and put it outside, so we were both safe! Lol! Oh! Great project by the way, thanks for the freebies!

[@debbievaughn8502]

Love the password keeper book...Since I'm old, I give a lot of gift cards as gifts, but like to have a little something with them...this is perfect....so...again, the instruction was perfect...the book adorable...but the spider video with your written commentary at the end was the freakin' best part...the end.

[@carolyoung3793]

Love this booklet and who else gives a comedy show during the tutorial lol tfs everything lol xx

[@annedwyer457]

Oh Nik you crack me up! Thankyou for lifting my day.

[@cindymatsumoto5989]

Nik...your squirrels are running wild!! However, I personally find them to be so very charming to be around!! The coup de gras was timed perfectly at the end with the ridiculous size of your ditsy bitty tinny weenie spider! Not to ever take away anything from this very very cool tutorial!!! Thank You!

[@helenbrill3026]

Oh Nik, you crack me up! Spiders are horrible little hairy things aren't they? I have a book especially for my passwords but nothing nearly so pretty. I think I will have to make a new one now. Thanks for sharing your talent with us, you are always great to watch.

[@bettejowelton7459]

I love it! Ridiculous is way too much fun.

[@Marilynlovesebiking]

Your booklet looks like a gorgeous ledger. I love it. It is all worth the effort. Nik, that spider was so little I could hardly see it.. I do not like spiders either, not in the house. They are caught and put outside. I make a spray of lemon oil and witch hazel and spray that around our doorways. It helps a lot.

[@anhaddad]

Just for good measure, I’m saving this video in my ‘Recipes to Try’ playlist. 😁

[@kimheron1275]

Oh my gosh Nik, you have totally made my day!!! Perhaps even my week. I was so excited to see that you had a post up. I don't really need that book, but I watched anyway because I just knew you would make me smile!! And boy did you!! Not a fan of spiders so I totally know how you feel. Thanks so much for making me smile and laugh. You're the best. Don't ever change!

[@tiawanagriffey7257]

The folding of the corners isn’t as ridiculous as you say... it actually reinforces the corners so they are less likely to get dog-eared. Love your videos!

[@christinahunnicutt8611]

So sorry about your spider scare! Hoping you have recovered. Anyway, this is soooo timely, I was looking for something to use up scrapbook paper and give out as small Christmas gifts and this fits the bill!!! Woohoo! Thanks Nik, you're the best and I look forward to what you have coming next! Take care girl! xoxo ( oh, just a note, when you hit menopause as I have, you WILL need this many pages because your memory goes offline!) :(

[@TRYHEART67]

Nik, love it! Glad I got to the spider story. You make me laugh...😂lol. And then....wow, that’s a lot of passwords! I’m afraid I’d misplace that book of passwords tho....lol..love those labels too!!! Think that’s a great little book to make for Christmas gifts! Love your channel and everything you make and your personality!!! I chuckled to the end...💕💕💕vicki

[@leoluminary]

What a delightful idea and execution ... the out take of the invader at the end made me laugh out loud at my own response to spiders...thank you for the entertainment and the wonderful freebies.

[@melissakinnear828]

Welcome back, welcome back yourself!! Ok, your chocolate chip vid is my favorite, but this 8s next. Love this project! So helpful at home and work. Also, love your quirky sense if humor. TFS!! 🤗

[@theresasuttle711]

I love the pw keeper and totally agree, give me a snake or lizard any day! Spiders are such a quiet sneaky bunch who come at you from ANY direction and leave their sticky, invisible ‘road’ where you walk through it, just so they can watch you dance and laugh!

[@bobbiehoward2739]

Thank you Nik. Love (and need ) this.

[@candyentingh4579]

"Grandma Ida's Lima Bean Recipes" I'm still laughing! This is beautifully and originally ridiculous...I love it! I'm like you...no spiders allowed in the house. And I agree they are fast especially when you turn your back to collect a weapon of death!

[@belindaosgood]

Love this Nik. And all your "ridiculous" touches are perfect. I am going to attempt to make 5 of these between now and Christmas Eve - and my printer ran out of ink after the first one. I need a Christmas miracle ......... ;)

[@tinatulips6667]

Cool cool cool! Great little stocking stuffer. Thank you thank you for the idea. However, I'm going to be very lazy and just decorate cover and back of a little Journal.🎄🎄🎄

[@fortheloveofvintage7347]

Tina Tulips Great idea for stocking stuffers. The girls I work with would love it. Thank you Nik for the freebies

[@lori88ish]

OMG you have no idea how much I need this, finally a way to get it all organized something I am not very good at. Thank You so much for the freebie and the tutorial your the BEST Hugs and Smiles

[@lindaknox7725]

I think your project is just perfect and I LOVE the corners and the addition of the marbled paper.

[@michellebrown7000]

Dear Sweet Neighbor, last night I found myself crying watching this video. Yes, humanitarian needs had me up at 3a, so I decided to catch up on some videos. Between the Lima Bean Recipe label and spider scenario, I was rolling. Love watching your tutorials Lady Crafter! Hope to meet you soon! Happy Crafting, Michelle down the road!

[@nicolastone421]

Nik you brighten my day every time I watch your videos! Thank you for being you! Much love from all the way across the pond! ;) x

[@LiterarySnob]

I love your little book!! I have been using an old little address book. Glad you are back!!! We need to compare our senior moments!!

[@1888starz]

Thank you for the great password keeper. I made myself a tabbed alphabet little book but its a little tatty now. I'll use this to create another booklet so very grateful for this newbie! Cute little booklet for rediculous turned out recycledous. Fantastic!

[@BarbaraHenry]

Love your projects always and the spider , do I ever understand that. You crack me up Nik. Thanks for that. 🕷 My cats are my greatest defenders for the 8 legged creeps. One cat found a spider on my pillow behind my head. Gaaa! Purple heart for that kitty.

[@LauraHickmanLauraHickman]

Thank you for this... Just made this project as a birthday present. It's the first book I've ever physically made. I think I'm hooked!!!!

[@christierella]

I enjoy your guiding of the lilly! I may not go all the way out there on a password booklet, but I love knowing your tips & tricks. I love seeing how Nik the Booksmith would do it.

[@kimberlycook5860]

I love your humor..the spider bit is a hoot!

[@mistyday269]

I just wanna make sure you understood how much laughter this brought to my whole household. My MIL used to live with us when my kids were young, and that dish was HER favorite dish. Mine and kids...not so much!😂🤣🤣🤣❤️

[@michellewohlgemuth8847]

This is super! Thank you for sharing! I too stay away from spiders, but mouse to me are the worst monsters.

[@deniseramirez9706]

That's a good idea Nik. There are so many passwords to remember these days we may need two books :). Thank you for always sharing such good ideas. I love your spider scene, that was hilarious. I laughed so hard at the commentaries. Love it!

[@bloodlacerose1688]

I think it was a Life commercial. Love the Lima bean idea, I totally agree that no one would look in there. hehehe Thank-you for the idea and the freebie. Have a wonderful day!!!

[@mickansj334]

Nice to meet again Nik !. What a great idea and it looks very nice. Thanks for the freebie.

[@Cyrilmc222004]

Nik you are awesome......Thank you so much, I really really love 💕 this idea 💡. I really really appreciate your talent, And your fantastic sense of humour. xxx Mags

[@tlcd1961]

Oh my gosh! Nik! You always make me laugh! Love your videos. This is a great project. Thanks so much for the printouts!

[@kriskrumanaker4315]

The marbled paper is awesome. It's not dumb. We spend far too little time making useful things beautiful.

[@rebeccaPBC]

My maternal grandmother’s name was Ida...LOL! Love the video. Thank you!

[@4711Dorothea]

lol such a tiny wee spider I have some friends that are the same, I have a catch and release program in my house and we have some pretty big spidies here in OZ. Love your work as always you are amazing , thanks for sharing with us.

[@eileenpawluk6455]

OMG Nik!! You had me laughing so hard the tears were running down my leg LOL I L❤VE this project ❣ TYFS 🙃🦔

[@teresalilly7]

I was laughing too..especially when she inserted the DeNiro Clip..I lost it !!..But I love the Password Book I did..Thank you Nik..xx

[@helenelegace1323]

Ha, you had me in stitches.... I made one of these a while back for my mom, (84 and still going strong on the internet) because she's had trouble keeping up with her passwords ever since I told her not to use "password" for her password (LOL) anyway, I included space for those pesky security questions. I think from now on, when I make them, I'll stamp a spider here and there to think you you. LONG LIVE THE RIDICULOUS. LOL! SQUIRREL!!! Okay, the end really got me. I'll never sleep again either. My sympathies on the loss of your house, mine will be next. Who else is up for a bonfire.

[@melissapettis3133]

I have missed you and glad for your new tutorial and freebie. I will definitely will make you, thank you.

[@Schatzie301]

Love this - going to make one right away and retire my old pitiful one. You are a delight - always make my day!

[@quarterblindsocialworker]

You just make my day!! I love your stream of consciousness style and just your mind on screen!

[@grogers511]

What a cute idea. I just finished organizing passwords in a password keeper book.

[@sharona8737]

OMG the spider part was HILARIOUS. My husband was staring at me while I laughed crazily.

[@cathyyosha]

Well, that whole thing made me laugh. I am ridiculous, too, cause I thought the password keeper was adorable.

[@barbaranoble9748]

I thought I did something wrong because I could not find you Nik! I'm glad you are back. Love your recipe book..lol.

[@lorikendrick5076]

I love lima beans and liver! But no one else here does so it's good for me! I was thrilled to see this book. I need this! Thank you.

[@georgiewalker1069]

Oh wow! I’m so glad I found this one too .... awesome Nik! You are a master bookmaker 💫🇿🇦

[@sherryfingerlin7595]

What a cute idea. I have been using an address book. Going to make one of these. TFS

[@jilllech9785]

Oh Nik, this is the best laugh I have had in months. Sorry about you having to burn down your house, but I understand completely. Loved the book and your humor.

[@jenniferwatson7118]

Episode at end of video - yep that's me! (The expression on the face of that little girl...!) Love the password keeper - nothing ridiculous about it! Just back from reading the comments below - they have spider emojis??? Now I can't read any more comments...

[@suestoons]

ROFL OK, not reading any more comments. Leaving now. Bye.

[@porchswingdesignsmarilou7323]

'I don't like spiders and snakes and that ain't what it takes to love me, you fool, you fool!! Talk about old-timey songs!! I don't like anything mentioned in the chorus of that song! LOL Thanks for the big laugh, Nik!! Thanks, too, for sharing a fun tutorial and goodies with us!! xo

[@marilyntorsch3970]

Such a great idea! I keep mine on an excel spreadsheet. But I really like this idea. Spiders are very scary for sure. Thank you for sharing,

[@helenwood1]

Wonderful and not ridiculous.

[@DonnaVintageSnippets]

The ending to your video was just hilarious. Been there with those feelings!

[@10151957june]

Lololol...I love your sense of humor, Nik. What a cute little guy that was!!! I love this idea of making a password keeper. I'll have to try it. Happy New Year!

[@coffeecupcraftswithkelly2826]

OMGosh! Love the video and your sense of humor!

[@ellabella2603]

Thanks! I need a password keeper, um I mean a Lima Bean recipe book. Looking forward to the sale too.

[@shellydrake1691]

I’m with you Nik! I hate spiders! Outside whatever, but when they breach that threshold...Funny video and an inspiration as always! Thanks! Hugs

[@gretchenkleer9252]

Ha ha ha hee hee...gasp... you are a riot!! loved the spider footage (more laughter). A new story, awesome, cannot wait! Toodles. ;-)

[@jeanwest-ackroyd3908]

Think your little book is ridiculously good Nik ! Loved the ending here- have to say I m not afraid of our spiders (u.k) and simply catch and put out again. They have a tough time, and eat all the other bugs for you ! Thanks for sharing.

[@juliekeil8791]

OMG you are hilarious! Love this! Labels are too funny! Thanks, Nic for the laughs and another great project to add to my list. 💖

[@michelles9117]

1st time commenting. It's New Year's Eve 10pm in England. I'm watching craft on YT because that is MY idea of a good time. You just made my night...great video tutorial but the real treat was your spider story. 😂😂😂 I'm not keen but I don't freak out. I usually name them because they do stick around for a while you know! My last lodger was called Brian. 😘😂

[@floief]

Mine is "Sylvia". Whenever I see her scurry across my desk I know that soon I will have little "Sylvies" gliding down on threads from the open beamed ceiling to watch what's going on in my monitor. (Honestly, I need to climb up there and re-caulk that beam)

[@farmgirlre4634]

awesome! I will be making one. thank you Nik for making this so fun to do! Love the entire video. Happy Happy!

[@ritabrassfield4296]

Had to revisit this, I have to make this cutie . As far as the spider goes I totally get it! I would not have been able to craft for days.

[@penelopemarshall6320]

Simple Nik, it's never simple with Nik but hell it's fun! I knew when you started out with the word copacetic we were in for a ride! Love the secret lima bean book!

[@kelseyjones4031]

Love this idea! I am going to make several to give as gifts! Thanks so much.

[@lindawood8862]

Thank you soo much. Not sure when I will get to it, but I grabbed the files. Hope your Holidays are wonderful. hugs.

[@karensumner3772]

THAT IS THE CUTEST PW KEEPER I EVER SEEN-AND NIK-I AM SO AFRAID OF SPIDERS TOO-BIG TIME-MY BROTHER/SISTER -WHEN WE WERE ALL KIDS-THEY WOULD FIND GRAND DADDY LONG LEGS-AND CHASE ME WITH THEM-THINGS KIDS CAN DO--RIGHT-TFS THE FUN/FREE DOWNLOAD-HUGS/BLESSINGS

[@isabelborrero-gonzalez3947]

You're so funny Nik! I call my granddaughter Miky all the time because she too eats just about anything. Ha, Ha! Great little book. TFS

[@LindaSmith-vq1br]

You are in great company as regards spiders and squirrels!

[@ljc.youtube]

I was wondering about using grommets in the spine, it looked so much easier, I guess you are locked into a 1/4 spine minimum, but it seems to cause much less strain on the paper/pages. A few years ago, it was the change of seasons, winter had arrived, I took down a sweater from my closet shelf that had been sitting there all summer long, put it on, got in the car, headed off to the long drive to work, then all of a sudden I felt all these "little things" on my scalp... so it seems, by putting on my sweater, I had disturbed a nest of baby spiders, and they were then contemplating whether or not to call my scalp home... so, yeah, ew.

[@beverlygreeson1426]

I love your Lima recipe book! Thanks.

[@gerryschipper9778]

Amen to your spider, or any bug, in my house philosophy! Hysterical ending!🤣

[@nancydurrett9319]

Lol that’s so much, cute P.A. keeper!

[@clc3897]

CIA, FBI, STATE DEPARTMENT, ETC. needs to stamp all their confidential and top secret files with Nik’s “Grandma Ida’s Lima Bean Recipes” labels. Nobody in their right mind would even think to look there. But I think you missed the opportunity to make a label called “The Itsy Bitsy Spider”. That would be a surely overlooked book of secrets that would safely sit on any of your desks and tables in your house. Always a good time watching you. 🥰

[@colleen3450]

Thank you soooo much. This is great ! I'm making one for each of my family members for Christmas !!

[@kellismith744]

Reminds me of my niece, we went to visit one evening and as I walked in the door she handed me a broom and said "kill it" and she pointed out the daddy long legs on her ceiling. I caught it on the broom and relocated it outside as she shook and shivered. This from the girl who has worked for a large animal vet and owns 4 horses.

[@kellyhitz150]

You just crack m up. I think our squirrels would get along just fine.

[@MrFairymoon]

Great idea! TFS and creating sweetie 😘

[@debbieloy5284]

Love your humor, its great!!!!!🏕🏖🏝🏜🎟🎟🎟😎 time for a vacation!
