Also, I ll show you how I make a paper divider. I prefer top bound in this style of notebook, but you can make your own in any size you prefer :) HOLE PUNCH NOTE I use the Circa Leverage Punch and it seems to be more capable of punching through thick materials than other punches. Keep in mind, most disc punches aren t made to punch through plastic/vinyl, so you might want to consider the manual hole punch hack I showed here if you re worried about breaking your punch: https://youtu.be/tKTAG_wREvI?t=2m53s COPTIC STITCH BINDING TUTORIAL If disc binding is not your thing, you can also use placemats as covers for spiral binding and coptic stitch binding: http://bit.ly/CopticStitch SUPPLIES • Polypropylene or vinyl placemats (mine are from IKEA) • 12"x12" cardstock*: https://amzn.to/2FUbX39 • The Happy Planner Expander Rings*: https://amzn.to/2K1XJzO • Levenger Circa Leverage Punch*: http://amzn.to/2oDrej5 • Cutting mat*: http://amzn.to/2pvIMNW • Ruler*: https://amzn.to/2rqvgN3 • Utility blade*: http://amzn.to/2G8iUlB • Craft knife*: http://amzn.to/2pvAuX6 • Extra strength glue stick*: http://amzn.to/2HUHXWu • Clear tape*: https://amzn.to/2IhPjan • Bone folder*: https://amzn.to/2I0Jyua • Fiskars 1/4" round corner punch*:http://amzn.to/2oDOFsz MY EVERYDAY NOTEBOOK • DIY covers & dividers: http://bit.ly/EasyDisc • Staples Arc 1.5" green discs • 8.5"x11" 110 lb. white cardstock (for sketching)*: https://amzn.to/2rqACIl • 8.5"x11" 24 lb. neon color paper (for notes)*: https://amzn.to/2rsIvMq • Staples Arc Page Flags*: http://amzn.to/2FN5Orj Shop My Favorite Products on Amazon*: https://www.amazon.com/shop/sealemon More Arts, Crafts & Sewing Supplies on Amazon*: http://amzn.to/2pqiihF MENTIONED VIDEOS How I Organize Creative Projects in DIY Discbound Notebooks http://bit.ly/NoteDIY DIY Discbound Covers & Dividers http://bit.ly/EasyDisc More Discbound Videos! http://bit.ly/MoreDisc FOLLOW ME Patreon: http://patreon.com/sealemon Instagram: http://instagram.com/sealemon Twitter: http://twitter.com/sea_lemon Facebook: http://facebook.com/sealemon Pinterest: http://pinterest.com/sealemon Tumblr: http://sealemon.co Etsy: https://etsy.com/shop/SeaLemon PO BOX Sea Lemon 1776 N.
