A good idea for the book pages is to go to your local thrift shop / garage sales and look for vintage books that are in rough / poor condition. Sometimes (depending on where you'll look) you can find books that are absolutely desecrated for free or next to nothing, and they'd just get thrown out anyways.
It makes me seriously so happy to know you love them!!! I try my best to use really cheep or free things because I want everyone to be able to make beautiful things❤️❤️❤️
If you want your papers look older and more medieval-aged, I would recommend you to use tea granules. Put them into big dish, take a few spoons of it, spill hot water, and then put in your papers. You can put some granules on the paper too, and after it dries, it will leave very good looking stains. Leave it for at least few hours or over night so it would be more brown. I also like to print something in black on my papers and then use for collaging.
I love all these DIYs but sadly I've done them all before! For the notebook instead of cardstock for the cover, I used a piece of leather from an old jacket and watercolour paper on the inside. I use it for a simple floriography journal in which I go out and paint the flowers then add in pen their meanings
I recently found your channel and absolutely fell in love with the content. The DIYs are creative and beginner-friendly and the videos are smooth and calming. I hope you can do royalcore next. Keep up the good work.
Awww I'm so glad you like it!!❤️ Royalcore has most definitely been on my list of videos, I'll try and see if I have some projects that will work for it!!!
for the aged paper i would highly recommend letting it air dry/pressing it between 2 towels before putting it on the make shift washing line, i've done it before and it can rip the paper if you put it on straight away :)
Hello from Canada! I like your DIY Dark Academia crafts aa lot because they are doable, and I don't need to buy a lot of stuff from the craft store! My fave is the little book with its tea-stained pages! I like making books, and your method is new to me. I like your clear instructions for sewing the pages together! Thanks for sharing! Cheers! ~Janet in Canada P. S. I have subscribed to your channel!
You have a great talent I also always use tea to make my pages look old and it's really beautiful and fun but thank you for video and most beautiful thing is u use simple things I want more videos like this please please ☺☺
For anyone who wants to make the notebook bigger or is worried about the thread breaking, you can buy wax coated string used for bookbinding and it'll hold much better
I would really like to make a leather cover out of perhaps an old leather purse or something!! It would be so fun also to add a rap around tie and some imprinted initials!
coffee and tea stained paper is good how ever the acidity in the coffee will make what you put on the paper not last offset/nutralize the ph balance with baking soda should make your markings last longer. for the sketchbook/notebook part I found that old t-shirt and or faux-leather works too faux leather you can use with cardboard details on the cover to give it a raised detail look but best to use fabric glue for these. If you also want the signatures/paper more sturdy and not rip out of the book glue down 1 paper piece from the inner book to each of the inner covers you can do this in place of the extra black paper that they show in the video. Happy DIY ;3
Hi !!. I love your videos so much! They bring so much joy and happiness. Just a request, can you please make a bookshelf tour video. You can totally skip this idea if you want to but through all your video your bookshelf has been catching my eye and I just thought to give you a suggestion. Have a nice day!
Hi! It makes me so happy to know you enjoy them❤️ I don't know if I'll ever do more than just show a few books on my TH-cam channel, but I do a ton of book content on my instagram and I'm much more likely to do a full tour on there. The link is at the top right of my channel if you want to go check that out!
This is so detailed and slow so it's very easy for me to do especially I Don't have enough money to buy some expensive ones so I'll just make my own Thank you so much for this video 🥰🥰
i cant stop watching your videos, i just wanna make all of these! (and I probs will lol!) however, tiny advice for the moon phases, the middle phase on your bookmark doesn't exist! the bookmark you were trying to make seemed to be the second half of the moon phase, skipping the new moon (the phase were the moon is in front of the sun so the moon isn't visible) and the third quarter moon! (where only half of the moon is visible to us!) the actual moon phase you'd be looking for is a waning gibbous moon phase! it's basically a full moon minus a waxing cresent moon! if you're confused, you can just google it if you'd like! also to clear up confusion, waxing means "to increase" so that's when the moon starts as a new moon and is slowly growing to a full moon. waning means "to decrease", so continuing from a full moon and slowly shrinking to a new moon! hope this helps! :)
If I'm being honest fairycore has been on my list of videos to do for what seems like forever and honestly I really WANT to do it but I've had some set backs with a few projects for the aesthetic which is the only reason I hav'nt made a video on it yet. I really really hope it will be coming soon though because I really enjoy the look of fairycore!! Also thank youuu!! I hope you have a great day as well😊❤️
Did u use the tutorial from wikihow? We had to make sketchbooks first class and that's what we did. You have the same instructions. I wished I watched ur vid though, much easier to follow!!!
really hurts my heart to see someone ripping a book page books are so precious i'm looking for material to make the little notebook, i'm planning to use it as a portable sketchbook
Just FYI, that no one ever mentions when making tea or coffee-stained paper. Both mediums are highly acidic. Eventually the paper will rot away. That's why archival paper is non-acidic.
I don't have one at this point but I have thought about it. I'm not sure if it would be the best place for my kind of content and if anything I would probably do something more with instagram but it is still most definitely a possibility!
¿Por qué el título está en español, si el video está en inglés? Bellas manualidades, por cierto, me encantan. Duele cuando le arrancas las páginas al libro de una noche en el museo.
ok but if you want to not rip the book you can simply grab stained paper , press to make it straight,rewrite a page from a book to the idk and print it on the stained paper
I believe mine was about room temperature! I'm sure it's fine if the mixture is cold. It being a bit warmer might help the color a bit but I don't think it would change it drastically!
Maybe it’s just me but for the book, I failed at the marking and sewing part. The pages wouldn’t keep lined up so the marking got messed up and the pages wouldn’t keep still so I ending up sewing through the middle of pages 🤦♀️😂
3:06 DO NOT USE SOWING NEEDLE! the paper is too hard. Better use a pin or something that you won’t need anymore, because paper will most likely spoil it
@@narnian_penguin oh! it's alright, you need to use printer paper or copier paper! the thicker one for gouache painting definitely would spoil your needle, you're totally right about that lol
you're making living your Dark Academia dream so easy, cheap and accesible that it's just perfect. You're so talented yet underrated.
You're very kind to say so! I Hope my videos can inspire other to do the same!
Yeeeeeeesss she is so underated

@@emxry thank you!
@@mayacrod :)
for the paper making i also stuck it in the oven at a low heat for ten minutes! i found that it really brought out the golden colour :)
I had to do the first one in 5th grade for my titanic project. Im happy somebody's finally showing others how easy it is!
You could also wrap the notebook in fabric instead of paper. Love your videos! ❤️
ooooooo I love that idea!!!! A nice wool could be so cool!!!
these diy are so cute +you made them so easy i loved this video
I can't believe I had dark academia aesthetic in me..this is what you call living under a rock
Great ideas!!! Thanks!!!

OMG?? I HAVE BEEN SUMMONED. THANK U MY QUEEN
AHHHH😂 I knew you would be pretty excited after asking for dark ack for so long!!! You are so very welcome!!❤️
Instant coffee is cheaper and does the job. Lovely video.
Thank you very much for the tutorial especially for the book binding!! It was easy to follow and turned out great
You're very welcome! I had a ton of fun doing it and I'm glad it could be of help!
for the aged paper i would highly recommend letting it air dry/pressing it between 2 towels before putting it on the make shift washing line, i've done it before and it can rip the paper if you put it on straight away :)
For the book black fabric also works really well, and you could add a bookmark ribbon between the pages and spine
You are literally so underrated, I loved this so much!
I’m a baby witch, just using this for ideas
Yeeessss! Dark academia!!! Wonderfully done! I want to do all of these! Great work!

Vídeo incrível! Mal posso esperar para testar estas ideias!
The notebook looks like the tom riddle notebook!
Oh my goodness I had'nt thought of that!!!

you can also iront the paper to get out the wrinkles:)
And here I thought tea/coffee stained paper was just paper with stains/cup rings from drinking and being deliberately clumsy... today I learned haha
Such a good work! Hope you'll keep creating :3
Amo estos vídeos ✨

Scattered coffee grounds really give the paper an extra old texture!
They really do!!! It was an accident when some of them spilled but it was totally for the better!! It looks really really cool!!
this was so helpful, thanks so much!!!
I’m so going to try the book! I know I’m late but thanks so much for making this video!
I did it and it turned out great. I now write in it in German so no one knows what I’m writing unless they can understand German 😅
Could you look into making a green academia DIY? Sorry if you've already done one by the way just thought that it would be pretty cool
My dad got me some defect printer paper (just because they were selling it cheap) and now i know what to do with them!
you can also dry the paper in the microwave
Did u use the tutorial from wikihow? We had to make sketchbooks first class and that's what we did. You have the same instructions. I wished I watched ur vid though, much easier to follow!!!

@@jordanmariec okay, thank you :))
5:00 I need it😍
Do you guys know that random motivation to redo your whole room because you want the change the whole aesthetic of it?
Yeah that’s me right now
I swear I get that every other week😂
Same. I gravitate towards dark academia and dollcore and they're so different :/
My friend ripped a twenty dollar book out but it was completely readable 😃 I just use it for art now
❤🌠✨
Please make some light akademia ;w;
oooooo I like thaaaattt!! I'll have to try and figure out some projects!!
does anyone know the song in the beginning? cool vid btw! :))

When you dont need to age your book pages because your dads coworker gives you vintage stuff 😎
the only thing i learned from this was that you have a lot of patience that i don’t have- /hj
OH GOSH😂
ok but if you want to not rip the book you can simply grab stained paper , press to make it straight,rewrite a page from a book to the idk and print it on the stained paper
thank you so much ily
Good thing I have 2 books of the same thing
Next dark academy diy video, please
I would really love to do another sometime! We'll see how long it takes me to come up with projects for it😂

is the water cold wene you pour it on?
I believe mine was about room temperature! I'm sure it's fine if the mixture is cold. It being a bit warmer might help the color a bit but I don't think it would change it drastically!
