Does anybody else find it so satisfying to watch her flip that cube?

Great DIY honestly just finished making this for my GF B-day tips for anyone who tries this -A carpet cutter works as long as the blade is sharp and thin -A fan helps dry the glue a littler faster -Make sure you wait for the glue to dry don't rush it -Print a few copies of your 10 photos in case you have to restart -Scissors work for trimming the edges although slightly rough -Follow and rewatch the clips from her vid as needed do exactly as she does and if you missed a cut or didn't understand which side she was saying pay attention to the side she originates from and how that compares to yours

[@jade.kirton]

Saturn Reaper I really want to make this for my mum as a Christmas present but the thing is I turned 12 seven days ago and my mum doesn’t have much money so I didn’t really get much money and I don’t think I will be able to buy these things also it’s really confusing! I really want to though! Do you happen to know where I can buy the wood and blade thing for reasonable cheap. I understand this comment is quite old so if you don’t reply I won’t be shocked but it would be quite nice. Thanks again 😁

[@hannahdeguzman7661]

What's the size of wood cube though?

[@Ram-rm2gz]

- It’s_just_jade - you’re adorable

[@garimavarshneya7162]

Which type of paper did you use?

[@TKCerbs]

For those struggling with cube alignment of the cubes, it is 100x easier to assemble the cubes first with tape, and then add the photos once assembly is complete. The also prevents you from using the physical photos as the hinges, which will crease them and make them look bad. Great video though!

[@minebloxer496]

Tristan Helms, what tape do u use. Cause I need to know

[@kjackiesung]

but doesnt it crease the photo regardless if there's tape? Even though this seems more difficult i personally see it as way better results

[@sealed2mybff]

@@kjackiesung it won't crease the photo because you are cutting it into tiny cubes and glueing each piece onto a separate cube. It looks much cleaner that way.

[@sumedhasharma6595]

Can we connect wooden boxes using hinges and screws?? Is that possible?? Because i think that shall make box firm..i wish to make this for my friend as friendship day gift.. please reply asap

[@sealed2mybff]

@@sumedhasharma6595 You can. Your best bet to reduce any extra space would be to embed the plates into each cube. Even so, the very middle of the hinge would create a small gap. So the spacing would be a bit bigger, but it's possible. I might try that, now that you mention it. Sounds like a fun project.

[@cherrymeez]

Thankyou, I've watched many different puzzle photo cube d.i.y. vids or infinity photo cubes, this is the most straight forward tutorial and easier than the others. Good job.

[@Mortadelllla]

Just made this for my 3-year anniversary gift and it came out great! So you saved the day haha thank you!

[@eeso1643]

So cool! That's a lot of planning beforehand! Thanks for sharing ❤

[@lizcondo835]

She explains so well where to cut.. I love that she used the dotted lines on where to cut. I made one for my boyfriend and he loved it. Thx

[@_iikandy]

[@vanessarivera7963]

[@redstarr2179]

I'm in the process of making these for all of my family members, that's 19 people + I'm gonna make one for myself. I ended up watching a similar video about this same project; where they taped the cubes together before adding the photos. This helped me a lot and it gives you a much better idea of where to cut. I bought the blocks on Amazon. I used Photoshop to crop and size the photos then, Illustrator to layout multiple photos on one page for printing. I went to art school, so I have a cutting mat, ruler (for straight cutting) and an xacto knife. I miscalculated how much glue I had, all I had was a glue stick and the glue dried before it even had a chance to stick to anything, plus I ran out pretty fast. That's when I went to Fry's to get more and saw they had rubber cement. I realized I still had some at home (art school again) I bought a bottle and was surprised how well it worked. You see rubber cement is meant to be used dry on dry so no need to wait for it to dry. Plus it's rubber so if you make a mistake or it gets in places its not needed it's easy to rub off.

[@redstarr2179]

This is the video the tapes the blocks together before adding the photos. kzbin.info/www/bejne/ioOqfp2wgtp2d5I

[@johnjohnson68510]

Thanks for doing this! I'm going to make a poem cube with pictures!

[@barfyunicorn9987]

TIP YOU NEED!!!!!!!!: Let the glue COMPLETELY DRY! Or else, like mine, the photos will rip and come off!! Please let it dry for an amazing product!

[@miamartin2561]

Barfy Unicorn yeah I agree u really need to let it dry

[@chezlin]

You're so welcome! Thanks for checking my video out! 💚 Merry Christmas!!

[@sandramchaplin]

So cool

[@peperodriguez4368]

I ordered blocks on amazon but they were not all cut perfectly the same but I tried it anyways and I used glossy stock paper so that it looks nicer. I messed up on both parts because I could not see where the lines were on the block I had to poke it flighty to find the line and since the cubes did not align perfectly the lines weren’t straight. Plus I used too much glue. So I tried it again but went to Home Depot and the cubes cut perfectly the same sizes and printed it out on regular printer paper at fedex office so I get a nicer color. I brushed a little glue on them like you did and it worked!

[@brendonatthedisco3213]

this was sooo helpful!! i’m making one for my friend, of course it looks shitty the first time but i’ll get better lol! ty

[@chezlin]

I'm glad it was helpful! I'm sure your friend will love it!

[@ishameemetowar6984]

Lovely :) thank you for sharing

[@Guiltypleasure98]

😂 I love you aaand the string lights.

[@chezlin]

Hahah, thanks!! 💚 Hopefully next year I remember to get more string lights ;)

[@dariusdeane2722]

I already one for my sister's birthday, it was kind of messy but its really cool

[@shannonwilliamson2540]

I watched a lot of these Magic Cube videos and yours is the best! Thank you so much :-) did you think of using Modge Podge? I think that would rock!

[@anitaramirez163]

This blew my mind

[@alyssamsipe9123]

this is the best thing in the world

[@chezlin]

Aw, thank you! 💚

[@divyasalve2174]

Can u plzz add the accurate size of those wooden block!!!

[@stephanymccormick1102]

That's awesome

[@kavitasuthar4065]

This is lovely!!! What an amazing thing to do for a gift. I have a question plz. I didn't get tacky glue/silli glue in any shop/online store. Could u plz recommend which other glue can be used to stick the printing paper (with pictures)on wood?

[@shvnjain]

Awesome!

[@kikeheebchinkjigaboo6631]

It’s Merry Christmas 🎁!!!!!!

[@cristinachan749]

Hi, I'm not sure if you'll see this, but I wanted to say thank you for a great video. I thought it was easy to follow and fun to make. Sadly, the cubes I've made don't close very well. Did you glue all cubes flush with each other or with a little, tiny space to make it easier to cut through with the exacto knife? It's the only thing that was unclear and I think would make a difference...

[@michellewilson4765]

Hey! should I use a laser printer or an ink jet printer to print out the photos?

[@hiba]

wow cool !

[@rishikapatelnice9218]

Nice it is very différent According to other photo frame😁☕

[@chandraprabhasolanki1349]

Love it

[@JOMICAsWelt]

You are so talented and cute! ♥

[@chezlin]

Thanks! 💚

[@alfonsogarcia608]

Hi. Great video tutorial. I will be building one of these! I am wondering if it may he a good idea to do a coat of ink jet fixative spray to improve the durability. Any comments are appreciated.

[@corbyere]

omg it's explained so easily i thought this was like rocket science when i saw it on pinterest

[@DSML_NagashreeH]

Lol!! Mee too

[@Rociolovatto]

Love it!

[@caileymai1024]

I’ve done this twice some here’s some helpful tips . Seal with mode podge cause the corners peel .be berry gentle it’s really fragile .LET THE GLUE DRY!!! I was very impatient so i didn’t let it dry so it became soggy and rips the paper .do not glide when cutting across because it rips the paper on the side, instead stab it in and out . If confused about cutting draw it out step by step . Don’t use a lot of glue

[@sudha_3904]

Can u please tell me where would u took photos either print or something else moreover where did that cubes available

[@bhavikajain4560]

Please let me know that from where i can have the cubes.. of same size especially..

[@Sepp2009]

Very pleasant to listen to ypur voice. But how many times can u fold regular paper like that before it breaks?

[@ashleypitz3977]

Wow!

[@belabarb]

I want to do this as a gift to my best friend for christmas

[@janedoe805]

Oh my goodness Rachael, that looks like so much fun and it’s so unique! 💞 Unfortunately I’m still trying to solve my Rubik’s Cube from 1980! You’re laughing but I’m serious. I’m definitely going to attempt to make one (or more) of your fabulous Photo Cubes! I only have one question; Is there any particular type of paper that you would recommend? I have Card Stock of different weights and Photographic Paper (Glossy and Matt). Thank you very much for another wonderful video. 💞👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@runevancraywinkel426]

this is so cool and i would like to make this but it really seems sooooo hard

[@naomimohungoo5370]

Can I use cuter instead of xacto knife?

[@athenadavis2425]

in other videos it says to use tape, so should i use tape to hold the blocks together and make it more durable?

[@dianarosemendoza7144]

Can i use 25mm size cube to make one? Also do advise to use board paper ?

[@merakmontiel7098]

Would you recommend using UHU so that the pics do not fall?

[@LAOWayMusic]

This is the only video I've seen where someone knows where to point on the screen towards a link the viewers can see

[@supkenken426]

The first time u pull apart the pictures, is it suppose to pull apart to have 2 separate parts or is it all supposed to be connected?

[@nancyb7338]

I don’t understand how the cubes stay together

[@sealed2mybff]

She's using the photos as hinges. They are what keep the whole thing together.

[@traceywhitehouse2220]

Nancy :b i don’t get it either!! I don’t think it would be very durable...there are easier tutorials on you tube than this...the cutting confused me!!!

[@angelicavenegas5694]

Will this still work with actual printed pictures instead of regular paper ?

[@jostewart8854]

Great Cube you are so creative but unfortunately I couldn't make it

[@smart4345]

How long did it take for your glue to dry before you cut the photos?🤔🤔😀

[@DianaGonzalez-vd8yx]

I have a question. If I transfer the photos to the bricks (by putting glue on the bricks, then putting the photos upside down and then spraying it with alcohol/water) do I get the same result? Or it just works with printed photos? I’m asking because the way it should be cut

[@rossyr5522]

What sizes are your cubes?

[@kavitasuthar4065]

Some questions plz 1. Do use normal printing paper for this? 2. What glue do you use to stick pictures to wood? 3. Can we use mod podge to seal the pictures so they don't come off after some time?

[@kayleed3413]

How long do you usually have to let the glue dry for?

[@melvinjacob]

how do I print the pictures the size I want to print them..? im kind of an idiot sorry.

[@Mariana-ev9kg]

I was thinking the same

[@pedrocorreia2911]

melvin jacob Go to word and put the pictures there, then use the ruler provided to scale it ^^

[@melvinjacob]

Pedro Correia do you know how to get a ruler for the side?

[@michelleavalo6382]

melvin jacob word, then paste the pic, right click, go to the second bottom tht says "size and shape (? I forgot wht it exactly says but)" then just type in the measurements you want

[@melvinjacob]

Moonbae 13 is this like in inches or?

[@jungkookjeon6878]

what kind of glue did you use?what brand??

[@lindastrandquist2429]

Love the demo I have always wondered how to do this.

[@erika-mv5bb]

The photos you use is it a photo paper or an ordinary paper?
