Power of Handcraft
"Not only did you make a tutorial on how to make this, you also teach us the importance of doing certain things, and I find that so inspiring and really encourages me and other people to make our own creations through the knowledge you share."

"This channel has brought me way more excitement than I thought cardboard could. I truly am excited about this video, and I have started coming up with some ideas for my own use, like a sanitary napkin dispenser, or packaging for odd shaped objects."

"I am very grateful for your videos ☺. I run a small business, and I have a lot of products in your boxes because I often have a large amount of leftover cardboard. Your tutorials are easy to follow, not complicated, but the results are very effective. I would be grateful to know if you are planning to create a tutorial for a pencil holder or other collage student accessories in the future."

"I love your videos, I hope you upload more content, I study architecture and the assembly technique that I saw in several of your videos helped me a lot for the models, I have also started to make small boxes for colored pencils and pens by recycling several of the boxes that perhaps you were thinking of throwing away, I hope you upload more content and maybe a tutorial, I know that many of us would be grateful, thank you for sharing your talent."

"This is exactly the channel I was looking for..... although for a beginner like me, I have to try very hard but thanks to you for sharing your talent with everyone
I often throw away many cardboard boxes wishing I could have made something with them...thank you so much. Love from India"

"Those are the cleanest finishes I've ever seen with cardboard, thank you for elevating a humble material to something that is clean and elegant and useful multiple times over. The invention of the cardboard box revolutionized logistics and we don't respect it enough. But I feel that you do."

"I made this organizer at home using FedEx and DHL cardboard boxes. It was not that much difficult to make, just carefully following the tutorial and template, it took me about two days to finish it. It turned out great! (I show the photo of it to my friend and she thought it was made of wood) I was really surprised how sturdy it was, despite being made out of cardboard. Once again, thank you for sharing this tutorial and template. I really enjoyed building this one."

"This is by far one of the coolest things I think I have ever seen done with cardboard. It really expands the possibilities of what can be done with moving parts for many different builds. Excellent job as always sir!"

"That was perfect ! I have a small cabinet in which I display pictures of various sizes.
It was difficult to get stands to suit my needs. So, I stacked up cardboard boxes of various sizes to make a step display.
Using this technique, I can make a customized step display stand.
Thank you very much !!"

"I like to upcycle trash, especially cardboard. I've built many storage solutions for my own art & craft supplies.
I struggled with the planning & getting them to look clean and straight... for everything to aligned nicely.
I've watched a lot of videos. And my skills have improved.
But, your videos and techniques are the best! I love them!🤩
You are a great teacher. You make it look so simple. I just have to improve cutting straight. Lol!
Thank you for sharing your expertise with us.💗💗💗"

"This channel really motivates me to save more money from buying things and think more creatively to make things out of cardboards. And to prevent from water/wet damages, I use adhesive wooden-like wallpaper to cover the things I made from cardboards and sometimes save me from using glue too! Thank you so much for sharing, I love this project ❤."

"Hi! Thank you so much for having shared your ideas, especially how to hide that ugly corrugated edges! I was excited so much to have done multi-level sliding organizers in my desk drawers! Now in all the three drawers my stuff is well organized, easily accessible and sorted by the usage frequency! I'm just happy! [...] ... Soon I'm going to build big drawers to collect all my clothes together!"

"Your tutorials and your objects are out of the ordinary. You are an artist. I wish to see you do shelves, with the measurements and explanations . I love the cardboard look. And the way you hide the corrugated is charming. Not easy, though. It takes practice. How did you come up with the idea to hide it like that? Thank you for sharing."

@jnmxxxxxxx8948Youtube Follower
"Thank you for taking the time to show us step by step how to create these beautiful objects. I will also check out your book. I hope it sells well for you. I think of all the people who work on miniature houses and doll houses not to mention the ones like myself who wish to make useable furniture for their own homes. I know it can be done and this is going to be a huge help. I hope you have a great day. Thank you again ♥"

"Thank you so much for your videos! They're a delight to watch and very inspiring. It probably seems silly, but I bought both the Kindle and the physical version of your book. The physical version is better for when I'm teaching art classes."
