I am confused by all the negative comments like "Why not just BUY a sketchbook?" You are watching a video about a sketchbook which is used for making art yet you can't see the creativity, beauty, and satisfaction of making your own sketchbook? Great video MyPetiteCakes, keep up the good work!

Additional tip: use some other paper, like cardstock, specialty paper, or others, for the first and last flaps of your journal. In this video, you see that the first and last are the ones that get adhered to the book covers. So if you don't want to waste your watercolor paper (especially if you're making a custom one with some more expensive watercolor paper), just add additional pages for your flyleaf and inside cover.

That's not what Mmina was saying. She is saying that when the cardboard + brown paper combo for the covers was applied to the actual bound pages, it was literally adhered/glued to the watercolor paper itself. She's not saying that the covers are made of the watercolor paper.

This was absolutely great. I read through some of the comments, and I can tell that some folks don't get it because they aren't watercolorists. Having the high-quality paper you want in the size that you need in a sturdy sketchbook is so important. I've spent big bucks on sketchbooks that say they are for watercolor but that don't hold up to the water. And, as you said, if you do find one that does hold up, it's very expensive.I was given one with a beautiful leather cover, handmade, sewn like yours. The paper had a note inside saying it was Cold Press 140 lb. handmade watercolor paper. I think the thing cost about $75 for a 5"X8" size paper. When I tried to use it, the coating on the pages repelled the water--never had that happen before! I thought, oh, well, I'll use it for a writing journal. Guess what--pen slides off, too. Markers never seem to dry, and smear hideously. A regular 2B pencil makes incised marks but leaves very little graphite on the page. The only things that seem to work well are very soft pencils and crayons. However, the book looks nice on my shelf. I'll eventually glue small watercolors into the book; that is, IF the glue doesn't do something wacky on the surface. :)

For anyone that feels like it's a lot of work to make a watercolor sketchbook (or any kind of sketchbook), I suggest starting off small with a staple-bound or saddle-stitch notebook/sketchbook before working up to other kinds of bookbinding. Also for anyone that feels they're too "lazy" or somehow can't bookbind, then it's probably best to self-asses where that headspace/perspective comes from (such as whether or not it's from putting a lot of mental energy and time somewhere else, or if it's just a subject/hobby that isn't your cup of tea compared to other kinds of hobbies). A lot of creative stuff like this can just be for learning about yourself and what skills you want to aquire! 🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓

All these comments are kinda wack. It's a nice video and a great idea for anyone who wants a sketchbook journal using their own favorite paper. I've used moleskin WC journals. The paper used doesn't hold up if you use any water at all. There are classes offered for journal making so I certainly appreciate the free video. If this is not something you appreciate and you have so little patience, why would you waste your time commenting. Skip to your next activity that requires a limited attention span. Thanks for the video. It was recommended on PureWatercolour.

(if you see my latest sketchbook tour, you'll see that nothing really changed except the cover got really dirty haha). I have another watercolor sketchbook where I basically just folded the papers in half and then glued the spine together, which is a really really quick way to make a sketchbook, and the binding is beginning to fall apart after a few pages of using it. I don't think you have to be gentle with this technique!

@@katrinawall4315 it's not a regular book though, it's watercolour paper. It's more fragile than other paper. It isn't about more and less easily transferred, it's about whole pages being permanently ruined by the tiniest amount of transfer. I don't know why I need to keep saying the same things over and over, once should have been enough.

I actually made one with this technique and I'm quite pleased! It was tedious, yes, but I find that I enjoy those kinds of things. I know it's a bit weird XD the only things I have to say is that as long as you have patience, it's super easy! I like how customizable it is and also how personal it feels! Seriously, how many people do you know that say "no, I've made this entire sketchbook. Yes, even the book itself" it's pretty satisfying =u= anyhow, it took me about 5 hours in the span of two days. And that's how much I can spend doing a painting, so to me, it's alright.

If you do a goggle search for "bookbinder's thread, you'll find sites that sell linen bookbinder's thread, both waxed and unwaxed, and in various weights and colors. This type of thread is archival, and tailor made for things such as binding your own watercolor journal, as well as for making the text block for rebinding those crappy Moleskine watercolor journals.

For me that has never worked. The paper will warp because you are using water on paper. The best technique I have found is after the painting is done lay a crap tone of heavy books on top of it.

Thank you. Fantastic book making video. I appreciate you showing the sewing the binding, as some videos show a snipit and move on. I have a 5ft wide roll-of 140lb watercolor paper to make journals and this will help tremendously. If I could only find a better technique of cutting it off the roll and getting the warp out. It is so much harder than you can imagine. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
