    Nik, sorry to hear you haven't been well. That stinks. Can't wait to see what you're going to use the tiles for.

    Sorry to hear you have been unwell hope you continue to get better . A hint for keeping tissue paper wrinkle free is to lightly wet the tissue before applying to glued surface. It is very delicate paper when wet but does work. Also a trick for keeping the liquitex varnish brush stroke/ streak free is to spray water (with very fine mist) onto the varnish as soon as you complete brushing onto the surface ie when still wet.

    I just found your channel and watched a few videos yesterday. Last night I had dreams about making books and putting them in a safe “hidden library”. So weird, right? Anyhow I’m obsessed with your channel. Can’t wait to watch all your videos 😂

    Hello Nik, I'm so sorry that you've not been feeling well. I've gotten some sort of summer cold or something like that. Anyway, my minimal health issues is nothing like what you have to deal with. You are in my prayers, but I have been lacking on this lately. Yes, a great project and idea. Thanks for sharing your time, talents and inspirations even when you probably don't feel like it. God bless you. Sincerely Becky B from Arkansas

    I’m sorry that you haven’t been well. I think about you all the time, because I am constantly seeing projects that I think you could do. Have you ever seen an assassin’s book? I think that totally plays into your wheelhouse.

    Hi Nik! I’m obsessed with this faux tile! Where can I buy that chipboard?

    • @NiktheBooksmith
      @NiktheBooksmith  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      hi Beth! I used brown board (aka, hard board, masonite) Usually I get 4'x8' sheets at Lowes or Home Depot and slice them down with a table saw. But, you can get smaller pieces (4'x4' and 2'x4', I think). On Amazon, some sellers have bundles of smaller pieces than that. The thickness of the board is about 3-4mm or 1/8". Hope that helps!

  • @StellaAlda

    This looks awesome! But if one wanted the faux tiles to be waterproof, what would be the options for that?

    • @NiktheBooksmith
      @NiktheBooksmith  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Stella! Good question, I'd think you'd probably have to seal them with some sort of marine varnish. Even then, I don't think I'd use them in a shower or something Lol

    • @StellaAlda
      @StellaAlda ปีที่แล้ว
