Attempting to Recreate this 50's Heart Dress! 

Agreed! The change is for the better, for sure.

Agreed. A happy maker makes better things. Don't let the algorithms push you around... - Cathy (&, accidently, Steve), Ottawa/Bytown/Pimisi

Yes, agreed! 🙌🏻🙌🏻

Agreed!

Ahaha same! 😂😍

LOL

Saaaaame bestie! 💜 Our Superhero Rachel bringing whimsy back into our lives 🥰

I love watching my go to RU-vidrs. They feel like family.

Same, coffee and Rachel are my Saturday morning wake up routine

Yesss absolutely ditto

Yessss so agreed!

Hear hear!

Imagine the incredible projects she could master over MONTHS?? little snippets, like a bonus, at the end of other project videos

Yess! 😍😍 I’d love to see more parts of one project! More details and stuff. I can def wait for a reveal 🙏❤️

Yes! Thank you. I thought I was the only one that struggled with this.

I have the same experience! I use all the filters and expect to find so much cute stuff like RU-vidrs seem to, and I usually find basic thrift store jeans, tops, and plain dresses. I have yet to make thredUP work for me 😂

Dude literally same. I need a thred up tutorial because I can never find anything before I run out of patience 😂😭

I believe she has done a video like this in the past. Don't remember exactly which one but I think it was back in 2020 or 2021. So a while ago, but it's definitely there.

@@Dev-ld4gi tbh ive had better luck on vinted (lots of awesome clothes for super cheap!) and depop (currently have to reset my reccs bc they keep trying to give me clothes for 100+ 😭 when it used to be in the 20-30 range)

It must be a super power my hearts would all be different,

@@barbaraferron7994 I know, mine would too!

I know my brain is blown by this talent as well

maybe she used a stencil for the hearts

@@ketaminepoptarts The video shows her marking the hearts freehand.

Yes!

Lol it was funny but I do genuinely enjoy those candy hearts.

same i couldnt believe she wasnt using a stencil, but she has lots of practice drawing hearts so work pays off!!

It’s a heart Not brain surgery Calm down

​@@wanya_telborn have you ever tried free handing a pattern before?

I know. That amazed me too. And I'm an artist!

I’m falling into that right now, you’re totally right😂

Too true….

I thought the same thing! So clean and consistent

I probably had gone for appliques or embroidery, because there's no way I paint that with a marker that evenly.

Yeah! I thought that's what the felt was going to be for lmao. Her hearts look so cute and beautiful.

I love it 😂😂

A little Springsteen: "You ain't a beauty, but hey, you're all right!"

I made a Gregg from Over the Garden Wall Valentine's card one year cause I was trying to be cute as a 20 year old hahahaha it was like "I like you, it's a rock fact!" I'll have to dig up the picture of that

My partner will say "you're alright. Well you're better than alright, you're not bad." Thanks.

I feel you on having embarrassment trauma for something like that. I wrote my 9th grade crush poetry, and it was *terrible.* Though, thankfully, modern social media didn’t exist yet, or I would have been in the same boat as you. :offers fistbumps of solidarity:

Oh oof! I'm so glad facebook was only just coming into being popular when I was that age otherwise I'm sure I would have embarrassed myself publicly.... Instead I managed the most awkward thing ever, which was telling my crush that both my friend and I had a crush on him and he could decide which of us to "go out" with (whatever that means when you're 12). I followed this sentence with getting so overwhelmed that I fell over backwards and lay on the grass for a bit in front of him 🤣

Great story. Lucky for me we didn't have computers when I was 12. Those crushes and notes were so daring and full of anxiety....but we somehow were compelled to !!

My crush was sick one day. I rushed home to get him a GetWellSoon card and borrowed my moms lipstick to put a massive greasy lipstick kiss on it. We're not talking subtle, we're talking actively staining your fingers with pure thick lipstick. The next day, his friends were there and I asked if they could give it to him. They said he was never sick and skipped school for a footballgame. He walked upon the dchoolyard and I handed him the card. He opened it up, stared at it, thanked me with a strange look and asked me why I did this. I mentioned I loved him. I recall him saying he didn't love me back. I remember saying: That's totally okay, I will keep sending cards though." Both of our moms then got involved, his mom thought it was cute and made him miss a footballgame to visit my birthday. My mom got involved by filming his team during sportsday, so I had a short clip to see him, for when I was older, as a cute memory. You can see him staring into the camera with an "Oohh no." face. Then his mom made him invite me to hís birthday and his friends yelled at me that he didn't want me there. And at the end of the graduationparty, he spontaniously wanted to slowdance together and I was very excited and held his shoulders like we were in a rugbychant or something, fully-stretched out arms and a broad scary smile. I only checked his FBprofile _once_ and he has a boat now. He always spoke about getting a boat, so I am happy for him.

Now I feel like I have to share my 12 year old trauma. I was “going out with” my long time crush. We were passing notes in class, and instead of throwing them out, like normal kids, we stuffed them into our desks. He wrote a note saying, “Do you want to kiss me?” Then he wrote yes, maybe, or no for me to circle. In truth, I was TERRIFIED to kiss him, but I did want to, so I circled maybe. Some of the typical mean girls got ahold of the note, and they changed the word kiss to the eff word. Then a teacher found it, and they gave it to the principal. We ALL got called to the principal individually. I was crying and swore my crush wrote the word kiss, and we never even did that. (Luckily I was super close to my mom, so I already told her my crush asked me to kiss him, and that I wanted to, but I was also too scared to.) Our principal told us she was going to send the note and samples of our handwriting to a handwriting specialist to get to the bottom of it. This was supposed to make us nervous, but little, goody two shoes, honest me was so happy and said, “I can give you my piggy bank money to help pay for it if it will get the results in faster.” My principal also called my mom in (and none of the other involved students’ parents in) and she GAVE HELL that her 12 year old daughter was being $exualized and essentially being forced to prove her virg!nity. Disclaimer: I used the $ symbol as an S and the ! symbol as an I to get past the RU-vid word sensors.

agreed

Heck! 😂

Yessss agree, love the outfit and the energy ✨

Hard same

Yes I always open, like first then enjoy!! And then comment 😂

Me too!!!!

She has a video on 60s hair and makeup, and it's super pretty!

Modern machine - Just #$%%^^&*)@)!_#*$-ing!!! work! Vintage machine - Oh, my poor baby, do you need some oil? - Cathy (&, accidently, Steve), Ottawa/Bytown/Pimisi

me when i was sewing for 15+ hours straight to finish a final the night before it was due and my machine gave up two hours before class😅😭

Ugh, yes! My ancient overlocker gave up the ghost yesterday halfway through my damned seam!

You're not 😊 In fact, I don't normally have subtitles up but with Rachel, I bring them up because she always puts in that little bit extra that just adds the the whole viewing experience for me!

I usually wish a video had no music but your music fits in nicely.

I second this sentiment! I love the sound design of Rachel’s videos

So do I!

Whenever I'm fumbling to try and do something IRL I whistle the kooky end-of-video outtakes music.

I'm still overthinking the line about Dover 'take me by the cliffs and shove me over' 🤔

Yes!!! Was looking for this comment! I had to go back and watch that part again because I thought it was her 😂

I hadn't noticed in the moment, but went back to look, and you're right! In Rachel's brunette phase; that model has her same smile and everything! Also, checking the side-by-side screenshots, her little hearts are placed EXACTLY where the originals were. Such perfection!

I noticed that too! 🥰

I was looking for this comment! They look so much alike it's crazy!

that's actually a bit creepy 🧐😳

based on the thumbnail and it being a rachel video, i agree

Awww sorry!! I had to do the same with my 14 yr old baby boy last week. Sending you ❤

Poor girl! Be strong.

I’m so sorry for your loss hon. But 15 years is a good long life for a cat, and I’m sure they were very loved under your care. I hope that can bring you some comfort

My heart goes to you. I also have a sick kitty. Sending prayers of comfort and love for you in this time.

I'm so sorry. I'm sending prayers and hugs your way.

I want to see his reaction to literally everything she makes. That would be such a fun outro. (Although I don't want to give up the bloopers & random singing/Frodo/bad puns)

SAME i thought it was deepfaked on, lmao!

Wow how amazing about Your Friend Angela , sounded like a fun time ! Sorry for Your loss but thanks for sharing

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

I’ll never forget my first, about the same age with a very popular guy at my school. I left a metal CD I mixed myself (with the help of my Dad), hand drew a cd cover and left it in his guitar case at the youth church group our moms made us attend. I still can’t believe It worked 😂. I never spoke a word to him tho because I was shy af so he did end up breaking up with me 😅. After that we were cool and got to hang out, play gears of war and metal which was more fun especially since I apparently didn’t know what that shit was about yet anyways lol

I related way too hard 💕

@@grandmasgopnik9642 oh the classic mix cd with the hand drawn cover *chef's kiss* I kind of miss being able to give this kind of gift to people I like. The last time I did that was in 2012, it was so nice. But also hard feel the liking someone and then when they give you attention just being totally too shy/awkward in my case to speak a word to them.

It’s even funnier to me because I was completely the opposite (helps that I’m autistic), I had a crush on a boy when we were like 9 so I told him to meet me after gym, asked very bluntly “hey do you want to go steady,” he was completely flabbergasted but totally down and that was that tbh, that was the most romantic thing I’ve done in my life. Learning that I’m aroace a solid decade later also made that make a lot of sense. I do still feel a bit bad about it bc he was very sweet, sent me romantic emails and gave gifts iirc, and two years later I just moved to a different country and he was mildly heartbroken. He deserved so much better for his first puppy love, I hope he’s doing good!

@@petloverspy honestly I relate to rachel’s story even less, cuz it’s been 16 years and I haven’t had one crush thus far. Boys are just a waste of time, think I might wait another decade 😂

Lololol for real!

Hello fresh too! Like hey I’ve been with your for this long can o get another deal too or do I have to cancle again to get a coupon 🤦‍♀️

Woo-ing habits aside, the fact he immediately trashed her valentine is like, idk, worthy of him being egged and floured in the parking lot

My 6th grade obsession got told “I still love you” after he broke his front teeth in a fall. He gave me a look that would have put me 6 feet under. ❤️‍🩹

I Huzzah along with you. I also Huzzah in public and it never fails to confuse the locals. 🙃

HUZZAH
