I just have to express my gratitude for such a well made video! I was so discouraged with pages coming out of my books…& then I found this video! I’ve just disc bound my first coloring book & put the video on my channel today. I especially appreciated hearing the benefits of this method, which helped me decide! So a very big thank you from me! ❤❤❤

The coloring book companies would do well to watch your video. That is how a coloring book should be.

I had no idea you could even do this!! THIS IS LIFE CHANGING!!! Omg..I am beyond being fed up trying to squeeze my pencils around the binding...I am soooo going to Staples tomorrow to get that punch! Thank you so much for sharing this video...truly life changing..Cheers from Canada!

You're a genius! I'm a Happy Planner user and have the punch, extra rings, clear acetate cover sheets, tabs from previous planners, and more. You've inspired me to gather all my stuff and re-purpose it for my coloring books and swatch sheets. Thank you so much for sharing!! ❤❤

Thank you for a most wonderful and organized explanation of your coloring book punch system! I've waffled around the decision to separate and punch my books, but you've certainly inspired me with all the reasons I absolutely love! Are you a teacher? I appreciate you! 🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽💥💥💥

This is freaking genius!!! Thanks so much for sharing ❤❤❤

Awesome! I did took some Amazon colouring books apart for easier colouring, but just put them in a folded A3 sheet, which makes them hard to flip through. So I might try this one out. Thx for sharing!

First your pages as you were flipping through are beautiful and secondly thanks so much for sharing this I like how you have done all of your books!

This is brilliant thank you! I was getting upset with my books falling apart. I have never heard of this kind of binding! 🇨🇦hello from Canada! Glad to know I can find at Staples.

So glad I found your video!!! Great information!! And the recommendation I ordered the Arc as I was watching your video. You have done beautiful work! Thank you again-I love this idea & look forward to future videos.

Wow, thank you for sharing. I love this!!

I was a dozen pages from completing Ivy and the Inky Butterfly, when my book imploded and every page fell out. I now take my 'important' books to the printer and they cirlox and bind them with a clear ring of the right size, and clear covers front and back to protect the lovely artistic covers (apx $7 Cdn). I also have days when I have to lie down, so I pop the part of the book I'm not coloring into a protective cloth bag, fold it tidily, and flip the book over. This way I am dealing only with the page I'm coloring, and the whole book is protected. Also useful if you spend a lot of time outdoors coloring. I have several books that I only color a few pages in and with your method, those pages could be put into a completed book of their own and not forgotten. Aren't we a queer breed that get excited over a swatch book. Yours is lovely, by the way. I'm in Alberta; where are you?

Thanks for sharing all this info. I really like this idea of binding coloring books this way. Your explanation is thorough and informative. So clear and concise.

What a neat idea!! Thank you so much for sharing!!

This was super informative and I’m very interested in doing this in the future with pdf coloring books. Thank you!

MY MOUTH IS AJAR!!!!! Holy crap this is brilliant !!!!! Thank you SOOOOO MUXH FOR THIS!!!!! Omg I’m excited to do this!!! I have so many unused sets of plastic HP discs (bc I use the metal ones) and a punch.

Thanks for sharing some great ideas...I really like how you bound the large color books!

I really enjoyed this very informative video, thank you so much for taking the time to share your methods and the equipment needed! 😊

Wow I’m so impressed this is a fabulous tutorial, but that aside your colouring is stunning , I’ve only just got into colouring this year, I have 6 books I got from Amazon I’m reasonably happy with them for staring off, I have just today got 3 of Johanna Basford books I have coloured a page today in the small victories book and the paper is so much better, I just thought paper is paper ha ha but now I know it’s not, I have checked out your channel and I love it will work my way through all of them, you have a new subscriber here I’m so impressed ( I just wish you lived next door to me you could teach me so much🤍 thanks so much I really appreciate you lots of love from me to you 🥰

Thank you for sharing this with us. Great idea that I may just put to use. 💕🦄

Just the video I was looking for. Thank you 😊

Very thorough! Thanks so much!!

I love your idea!!! Thanks for sharing!! 😀

I do not bind my coloring books but I do use a disc bound system for my Colouring journal and my swatches. For my Colouring journal, it allows me to put my books in alphabet order as I receive them and I bind it at the top because I’m left handed :) I do hate when I can’t color to the very edge of the page, but the holes in my pictures would drive me batty I think!

Hi, I've never seen this type of binding before so this was really interesting to me here in the UK. Not sure if its something we can get, but does look like a great system. Going doing some research now. thanks for sharing 👍

What an interesting idea, thanks for sharing it.

Been looking for a way to do this easily. And wondering if I was the only one who would want to do this! Lol.💗👍👍👍 I love this, Thankyou for sharing your time and talent.

Very informative video. Thanks so much for sharing. I need to look into this.

I love the idea of removing and putting your pages back in. I see you are in Canada. I am also in Canada in the summer only, in winter in Florida. I find that everything related to coloring is super expensive in Canada. What a smart woman you are, I love your swatch book! Where in Canada are you, I am in Quebec, just out in the country not far from Montreal, where I was born actually.

Wow !!! That’s Genius !I’m a subscriber now !!! W Beautiful coloring.

Thanks for the info, Jody!!!

Great idea! I didn’t know there was a punch that could take that many sheets. I have seen that happy planner punch and wasn’t sure if it would go thru some mixed media paper I have. You have answered all of my questions! Thanks for sharing!

I love this idea!!

I do this to all of my Bible studies. I never thought to do this with my coloring books! I have the Levenger Heavy-Duty Duty Punch. It punches a bit longer than the ARC but not as Ling as the Happy Planner 360 punch. Think you for sharing this brilliant idea!

Thank you so much for sharing.

Wow, this video is so interesting! I do disc bound some of my pdf books, but never thought of doing it to one of my printed books. And I noticed that the self-laminated sheets are stiff, just like the heated laminating ones (I don't know why, I imagined that they would be flimsy). Thank you for sharing!!! ❤️

I've been thinking on this a while now (9 months by my last comment!) and finally put some tools on my wish list. I can't afford the hole punch you showed (or indeed, any mushroom punch) but I got stuff that should work. Thanks again for the idea!

So interesting! Thanks for sharing your process and why you do it!

This is such a great idea! Thank you so much for making this video.

Thank you very much for sharing

Thank you so much!

Great tips! Glad you did this video! 💕

Thank you! I’ve bought some supplies to give this a go myself as I have noticed in some of my most worked in books the glue binding is coming away ❤

I have a generic happy planner hole punch,ive had trouble with my paper staying in the rings, however i do have a spiral bind machine that i might do instead, I may not can take in and out but at least it will lay flat!

I think I like this idea

Your pages are so beautiful your an amazing Artist🤗thank you for all the tips

Brilliant…I have just started with HP and wondered if this can be done as my Mythographic books fall to pieces….In the UK we are so far behind in craft and journaling we can’t even get books bound like you can…🥰

For unbinding a "perfect bound" aka glued book. Use heat. I use my heat gun on low but a blow dryer works well. Especially if the pages are a bit thicker. Also for a punch i use the punch dile mushroom shape. Since i punch along the top. But usually the top of the page has more room and doesnt intrude on the picture of the page

Thank you i didn't how Disc bind was done.I like to have art journal but they are expensive but I could make my own using Disc Bind

Your pages are beautiful 😍 Love the disc binding idea 💡

I've been having a hard time figuring out what to do with my finished PDF coloring pages, now I know to use my Happy Planner punch and put them on some extra discs. Sometimes the solution is just staring you in the face. This was very helpful, TFS!!!

Beautiful

Excellent idea! I was looking for ideas for my swatch book, when it's time to get a new one, and this is a good idea for it! Thanks :)

Vety Interesting! Thank You so very much for Sharing this Information!👍🏻😊

I thinks it’s a good idea..specially if the paper is cheap paper on top of your reasons for doing so. Thanks for sharing

Great idea! I just need a disc punch.

I am left-handed and would put the binding on the right if it won't interfere with the images. I love the ones that are bound at the top. Well, duh! I spoke too soon. If the pages are removable then it removes the interference for lefties.

Great Idea I just might go have a book binding removed and try it out! I have Happy planner items already but found I didn't like the bulk of the disc. But this might be a better application???🤩😁 Thanks for Sharing!!

I have mine at staples for $8 for the spiral binder…price varies because of side.

Very helpful video. Thank you!

I love your coloring and love this idea! My Magical Jungle book is falling apart, so I just bought the Arc punch so I can disc bind my coloring books and disc bind my swatch book. Do you what size discs you used on RC? Thanks!

I loved your video. I ended up buying the arc punch. But the smallest discs they had turned out to be huge. What size do you advise me to buy? What is the size of that disc you mention in the video as your favorite size? In books with hardcover do you also does the same? Many thanks 🙏🏼 you colorings are beautiful

Thanks! I bought one of those type whole punches at a thrift store with the intention of fixing a few of my books that the pages have started to fall out in. I got intimidated seeing only the big discs. I wasn't sure if It would work. Thanks for showing the different sizes and how it is done. How to they fit on a bookshelf? Does the binding get in the way at all?

Is there a place where you list the materials you use?? Sometimes I have difficulty understanding.. ( hearing loss

Hi 'J' !! I was wondering about binding my coloring books on the top rather than the side ? What do you think ?? Thanks.

How to do you open the discs?

Question: how much if the image is lost by cutting the binding off? Forgive me if you've already answered any thanks in advance for the answer.

This is awesome I wish I had a hole punch

I dont have none of these books
