Literally was about to comment this too! Even if the kids want something more fun they can be flying monkeys and munchkins or farm hands can be easier for parents!
I actually teared up when you were wishing everyone well; I recently started therapy and I’m trying very hard to make some slow but big changes in my life and that comment made me feel so seen. And I am actually watching this laying in bed before falling asleep 😌
So fun story about Coraline: When the book was written, the editor told him that the book was too scary for kids. Keep in mind that the movie is arguably tamer than the source book, not quite capturing the otherness of the Other Mother. So they decided that she would go home, read it to her kid, and see what the reaction was. The girl didn’t complain, so they went ahead and published it. Years later, he was talking to the editor’s kid and she told him “oh yeah I was scared as hell, I just didn’t tell my mom”.
I literally just read Coraline because everyone says this. The movie is way scarier. The book was dry. I can't believe that's been written by the same person who wrote American Gods and Good Omens.
I’m one of those people who watches to cope with anxiety. I am also currently cozied in bed with chips and salsa. I love this channel so much, thank you Katie and the Royal Court for everything you do.
For all of you watching this at night to cope with anxiety or for relaxation... Sister you got my number there! Your videos help me relax and get ready to sleep often! Thank you!
How about a Princess Bride family costume to go with? Caleb and Katie can be Inigo and The Witch (I'm not a witch, I'm your wife!), Lily is Buttercup, and Will is the six-fingered man.
Whenever I'm watching one of Katie's videos and my husband hears her voice he says "Es tu amiga de los jabones?" Which would roughly translate to "Is that your soap friend?" The answer is always yes. Sorry Katie, you are my friend now. No refunds! 😂
Clara Pacini my boyfriend does something very similar. He hears the videos and goes “is that the lady with the kid and the soap?” Which is both accurate and horrifically vague
I almost cried when you shouted out to those going through a treatment and those that aren’t well. I just discovered you the other day. I’m chronically ill and bedbound. You’ve been a welcome distraction and I love how sweet you are. And I love the soap! Thanks for caring about your court like you do!
when i was younger, my family dressed up as Alice in Wonderland characters! Lily could be alice, Will could be the white rabbit, you could be the queen of hearts and caleb could be the mad hatter!!
The shout out for people with anxiety was really sweet, I'm watching this right now during a study break because I've got my midterms coming up and though I'm not worried about failing, it's pretty natural to be stressed when you've got multiple essays and exams in the next week.
Also, for Halloween: Addams Family is sort of half spooky and could be fun OR Scooby-Doo mystery team!! Lots of fun options. I also don't like spooky things or gory things so Halloween has always been something I don't really enjoy. However the vintage cute baked goods and pumpkins vibe sounds sooooo nice. Wish we had a bit of that where I live!
“Shoutout to those who are watching this to relax” absolutely yes 😂😭😂 I’m so glad I found your channel this is exactly why I love watching you, thank you
It seems pretty clear to me how therapeutic it is for Katie to be creating. She seemed in some kind of mood at the start of this video lol but by the time she’s piping the top she’s back to bubbly, goofy Katie!
"For those who are here for satisfying relaxation or to help with anxiety" - oh that's me. "And if you're going through some hospital treatment right now...." - OKAY that's a bit spooky and *specifically* me rn hahaha
I appreciate Katie so much for addressing people who watch RS vids for relaxation or certain issues. Thank you so much for always creating amazing content!
My husband commented that when I'm on my phone with a huge smile on my face I must be watching the soap lady with the adorable little girl. 😊 He's watched quite a few of your vids with me and smiles through them too.
At first my husband was like "why do you watch that if your never gonna make soap?" Then he was like "why don't you make soap?" Now he gets mad if I watch soap making without him🤣
Vintage halloween suggestion: Rachel Maksey is so wholesome and relaxing with a cuuute doggy hehe. She loves making clothes and cosplay, esp for fall and halloween.
I really like the fact that you can do a "limited edition" soap and let yourself be more creative and free with a smaller batch and not worry about making a hundred of them. Yay!
Thank you for doing that shout out to people relaxing from anxiety or medical treatments. Even though it was generalized to everyone who is going through something, I felt like you were reaching out to me as well. ❤ Last month I had to get my left kidney removed as it had a cancerous mass. I enjoy watching your videos so much. They are satisfying, entertaining, funny, interesting and delightful. I'm so glad I stumbled upon your videos a few years ago and am grateful tup your dedication to share with us your passion for soap-making. Sorry, this got longer than I thought, I'm gonna stop before I start crying. Thank you again Katie, for being a bright spot in my world.
Katie. Thank you. This episode cheered me up so much. My house is a few miles from the fires on the west coast, and your- you ness is so perfect. It really helped me out
I love the fact that you don't dress up and put on make up every time. I feel like I'm often too hard on myself for not always doing all that, when really and looking my best, when really some days' best is just different than other days' best. And it's nice to know that I'm not the only one who has that kind of days and THOSE kind of days.
I just wanted to say, you've motivated me to start making my own soaps! Right now I have a coffee scented soap loaf with coffee beans in the making 😋 it's so fun and i enjoy it so much, thank you for introducing me to soap making and providing all of the necessary education to be able to start on my own. 💖
🙋🏽♀️ currently laying in bed relaxing and getting ready to go to sleep. I’ve never made soap before in my life but I’ve watched every single one of these videos 🤣🤣 love your videos! I’m going to try to buy a bar soon! 🖤
ALSO whoever said coraline is not scary..... CORALINE IS TERRIFYING 🤣🤣🤣 I was literally 23 years old covering my eyes watching that movie with my nieces the other day 🤷🏽♀️
Uhm- Hello... I struggle with what we think are undiagnosed tics and watching your videos help my tics calm down a bit. Thank you so much for helping me with this. Even if it is accidental!
My favorite part is when you pipe the top and add the decorations because I love the conversations you have, I feel like I’m sitting here talking to a friend. You always make me smile and I just wanna let you know I appreciate it.
This design with these colours are AMAZING! I would really like to try this colour palette. I don’t usually care for the frosting but the “caramel” on the apples look SO nice on the frosting.
“Shoutout to anyone who is watching this cozy in bed” 😂😂 for real me every night, calming myself from a hectic day or week in my nice pyjamas and wrapped up like a sausage roll 😂💜💙
I am in bed and trying to relax! I have fresh sheets and nothing makes me happier, or more relaxed, at night then having had a good shower and clean sheets on my bed ♥️
My family and I are dressing up as "Lord of the Rings" characters! I'm going to be Arwen, my husband is going as Gandalf and my boys are going as Hobbits!
Watching this video as I crawl into bed, after a long day working a wedding. Candle lit and relaxed! Thank you for the peaceful, wholesome entertainment!
ikr! I was kind of wondering how this really fits into the "villainous" theme... That might work? I honestly feel like this one is just a bit out of place for this series.
Katie I just love watching you. You stay true to you but venture into new experience also Thank you for the years of education. Who said you can’t teach an old dog new tricks. This 60 year old lears all the the time from you.
for a family costume set i would suggest alice in wonderland. Your husband can be mad hatter, lily can be cheshire cat, your son can be the hare (or the white rabbit) and you can be alice
I haven’t been this early to your videos.... sooo if you see this.... you’re sure a pure and wonderful person! I love watching your videos and watching your creative mind at work! 😁💗
Gosh I love her! I just watched the Netflix series in one sitting! She's so talented and amazing! Love her house and her creatures! I'm a Patreon too...lol.
First...Halloween Tree is my favorite. Love it. Second...almost 4 in the morning, haven’t slept yet and am currently very envious of those cuddled down and asleep. Thank you for being such an enjoyable escape.
Trunk or treats are LDS halloween life. I went every year in CA when I was a kid and took my daughter once she arrived on the scene, they're some of my favorite halloween memories.
A lot of local churches here in Oregon so them too... Honestly they tend to be a bit disappointing here compared to the loot you can get trick or treating. You just have to know the right neighborhood. I get kinda pissy with the people that try terrifying my toddlers though, like seriously, small children are approaching your house, take it down a notch.
You are right on target with acknowledging that your videos are great ASMR!! The other thing that I have to thank you for is standing up for your creations!! I'm all about turning cute household items into the stuff of nightmares!! I love it! You keep doing you, it's fantastic!
