GUYS I JUST FINISHED FILMING PART TWO AND IT CAME OUT SO GOOD JUST KNOW I REDEEM MYSELF OK
OOOO WHEN IS THE VIDEO GONNA BE POSTED??
@@KawaiiStoneyGamingIDK I EDIT SO SLOW BESTIE
@@amazingishgrace Its ok queen i do too 🫶
I feel like, because your format is vlog style videos, it's like prime for not needing to finish projects in a single video. I imagine people watch because you're funny and engaging and your life is interesting just as much as they watch for the crocheting. You could make this top a 10 part series and I'd still watch every episode!
seconding this so much! just luv watching for the lifestyle and the crocheting, not necessarily for a finished project LOL
Same. Well said
u guys r so nice to me and for what reason i don't know
@@amazingishgracebecause you deserve it ❤
Am I excited about plastic bag yarn? no. Am I excited about a top made out of it? also no. But is it a Grace video so I'm sat and watching? Absolutely
im also not excited about plastic bag yarn to be fair
@@amazingishgrace I support you in your endeavors, bestie
It's a resourceful people thing. We also kept and reused plastic bags growing up to line small trashcans, etc. I still do it to this day.
They always come in handy.
I didn’t realize people did NOT keep and reuse plastic shopping bags! I’m in Canada, and they’ve been phased out. When my stash runs out I’m going to have to buy liner bags, which seems worse than just reusing grocery bags…
@esthermcafee5293 those reusable grocery bags are also made of plastic and I see them littered around all the time too so what are we helping? 😭
@@esthermcafee5293in my household we have dealt with this by dumping all the small garbage into a big garbage, so the shopping bag stays in the little cans. (applicable to dry garbage only ofc, nothing w good or gross stuff)
@@esthermcafee5293 I know exactly what you mean. It seems more wasteful and expensive unless the liners are green in some way.
Its not just SoCal, not just Immigrants, we all reuse those bags or ended up with ridiculous amounts of them in the closet, under the sink or wherever they were stored. This should be interesting.
real
omg okay good to know HAHA i know a lot of people who don't save them actually!
FINALLY SOMETHING TO WATCH WHILE CROCHETING!!!!! ILYSMMM
LFGGG
dont even worry about the video having to be two parts. I've been watching your videos more since you've started including vlogs of your life as well and the combination makes it very enjoyable, whether there's a project results or not.
🫶🫶
I love the way in every video you explain with your hands it’s so cute
HELP I DO IT SM HAHAHA
I’m convinced that “having a plastic bag full of plastic bags is a [insert in-group of people] thing” is just another version of “people in [your city] are such bad drivers!” or “here in [your state], if you don’t like the weather, just wait 5 minutes!”…that is, something that seems to be pretty ubiquitous/normal, but somehow everyone thinks is unique to their community lol
ok I KNOW PEOPLE WHO DON'T so i wasn't sure but it seems it's quite common
there is another method to cut plastic bags into plarn. you basically can just cut a spiral out of the bag so you would end up with thin yarn strips (you would still have to connect them tho) 💕 love you
i used to do this! but i would fuck up too often LOL
Yooo, this is sick, you are the best 💕
In fact I'll tell you: do as many parts as u want! I love series and long videos so take your time and don't pressure yourself, take care of you and your mental health! You are your number one priority baby girl 🥰❤️🔥
Love the hair bow and thank you I can finally watch something while crocheting
when i used to make plarn i folded the bag in quarters to cut the strips, it made it so much easier! i don’t know how to explain it well but you fold it one solid side to the other and then in half again the same direction. great video as always 🫶
I crocheted a lot of stuff from plastic bags it’s time consuming but I love it because I’m eco friendly and it always turned out well. Happy to see that you made a video out of plastic bag 🥰.
Grace your my inspiration I had broken my ankle and you inspired me to start crocheting and knitting ❤❤❤❤Never stop inspiring
I love you’re hair bowww!!!
I'm Black American and ALL of my Black Am friends and family ALL have a plastic bag full of plastic bags in the cabinet or pantry. 😂😂 Maybe it's just a thing, but then again, we're all immigrants. It's only my Native friends who never had that growing up. 😂😂😂
it’s an american thing. white and live in Ky. maybe it’s just a “poor”thing.
Looking so pretty in today’s video red is so your colour!!! ❤❤❤
GIRL FOLD THE BAG THEN CUT!!! ❤❤❤ way quicker and more even strips!!
LOVE the dresses and pants and that top!! My goodness so cute!!
fuck im so dumb
@@amazingishgrace nah girl you didnt know! just gotta look it up quick. All good! you got this chicka! 💜💜💜🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼 keep up the great work!
The way I get so excited with every upload! Keep doing you, love your content and sending all the good vibes your way🩷
when i was 8, we learned to create plarn at school and crochet with it. it was my first time crocheting and it was evil! plarn is not for the faint of heart!
She's so gorgeous aaaaaaaah
the commitment to just getting the logos off the bags is insane i wish i did that
Loving the more frequent uploads 🩵
✨Influencer era ✨
While the consistency is great don’t let that put a mental or physical toll on you because it won’t work great if it continues long term .
Just keep doing you and we’ll support you 🩵
like a minute in, the stacked necklaces are so cute 💗
Please keep the crochet texture!! I feel if you iron it it would defeat the pourpes of all the croching
I just noticed, congrats on 200k Grace!!!
I'm so excited for part 2 & you inspired me to try plarn, I think I'm going to make a market bag 😁
oh the halara sets are cuteee
i love your videos!!
grace i love your vids pls don’t die
Go yarn shopping plss i love the vids!
I like the see through crocheted look of the petals but also kind of interested to see how it would look melted. Maybe try making a small petal to test melt and see if you like it first and go from there
FIVE MINS, I LOVE UR VIDS
Yasss another grace vid
Omg queen I rlly thought abt doing this so many times but I thought I was crazy!!!
I also used one of those spools of ribbon u can get from the dollar store!! Doesn’t look as nice but I think my gauge was off you could probably do a way better job :)!
I saw a video where someone made yarn from a shirt and instead of tying loops together they just cut strips but not all the way to the end so that the fabric was still connected at the end and it just made one really long strand
You are fun. Love your take on life - thanks for sharing. Never knew about plarn.
So underrated this came out 10 minutes ago and only 10 comments 😂
Can't wait for part two
96- ITS 112 IN THE COACHELLA VALLEY
I always used plarn to make little baskets, which can be very cute.
Yayyyy for the up cycling :)
I love that season on Love Island
Omg also ps you could’ve cut one side of the bag as it was like already tube-like to make it a flat sheet. Then you could zig zag cut across the whole thing to turn into into one long strip.
Does that make sense? Idk I could probably write that in a more easy to visualize way but it looks like you already did it the harder way so it doesn’t matter 😹
Edit: tbh the way the plastic doubles up with the loops makes it look way better ignore me you definitely did it the right way lol
I don’t mind the two parts! I love watching you and your friends hanging out. You’re so right. Make as many as you want queen
I would definitely have tried soaking the bags in a acetone water mixture. Less rubbing lol. Though you would've definitely needed rubber gloves 😅
I think the bag thing is an EVERY family thing 😂 my white family has been collecting bags for yonks 😂😂
Yay can’t wait to watch!
Love your videos. You're so much fun!
I love your videos!!! You give me so many new ideas!!!!!🫶🫶🫶
i feel like a corset style top would be good made of plarn, since its stiff and you could wear it over clothes, it could turn out interesting.
Love ur videos💗💗
I come from Poland and in my country I also keep and reuse plastic bags. My grandmother had plastic bags older than me 😂😂
I’m only in the beginning of the video but you mentioned the playarn was stiff and I was thinking that it would make a cute suit blazer…..
Actually the green shade is pretty cute. It looks kind of minty. It doesn't come off lettucey from the video but lettuce can be cute too lol
was that picture reference of a flower top crocheted? I can't seem to find anything like it by searching... I want to try making it if possible 👀
okay but hear me out: spray paint👀
like you could do a pastel gradient or even gold?? if the colour leftoverson the bags still bother you
I am a serious plastic bag hoarder, and I have no idea why. I don't think my parents even did it, I just always think I'm going to need them for something haha
There charities around the the crochet plastic bags …they make bed mat for the homeless they awesom for them.im from Australia..something to think about x
WHAT IVY LEAGUE SCHOOL LMAO
I'm an og subscriber and remeber watching that vid and I've been following ever since
oh , now i wish we would still have plastic bags , but we dont have them anymore ....
Can you maby dye your paddels a different color? Then they May look more like flower leafs. ❤?
I love your vids
If it helps with time stress at all, you could alternate doing a yt vid biweekly and doing a crochet-long livestream in between. Less editing?
Bro I am American and live in Indiana and my whole family collects plastic bags to reuse! Perfect for bathroom trash cans! Lol😂
Who doesn't have a mothership of bags under the sink just in case?
I'm trying to figure out what to crochet with my velvet red yarn😭 but I have SOOOOOOOO many plastic bags
plarn queen
Love ur video ❤
Acetone can damage the finish on your floors!
You need to do an "ASK ME ANYTHING" #vlog and share with us why you moved❓️ Who did you move with ❓️And are you loving living with a roommate❓️ etc...
Sometimes u fans can b so nosy
Be careful. Acetone will take the shine off your wood floors too.
Did your grandma really teach you to do it that way? It looks a lot more straining and time consuming. With the way I was taught, it only takes an hour to make a 6 inch-ish wide plarn ball.
It's not an immigrant thing. We've been doing that too, and our whole family is German living in Germany.
Yaayyyy
When you said stiff I thought a corset. Maybe another time?
Literally everyone saves and reuses plastic bags
My family is black and we collect bad as well
mAkE aS mAnY pArTs As YoU wAnT
If you do decide to iron it please please make sure you wear a mask and be very careful cuz fumes from melting plastics is horrible for your lungs 🫶🏻
Is it just an immigrant family thing to sit in the floor while doing stuff? Cause SAME 😂 2:33
Is that Lake Carmel
23 minutes in ayyyy ❤
yee plarn
I'm almost afraid to ask, but can you knit with plastic bags?
Probably
ah ah☝️ it's actually an asian thing. my family didn't move to a different country the last time I checked. we collect plastic bags and eco bags. our drawers are full of it! 😅
Hii
Please be careful if you do decide to iron it. Melting plastic is bad for your lungs and the environment.
OK, I have several problems in the first two minutes of your video. My first problem is that you think that only immigrants collect plastic bags. I am not an immigrant, and I don’t know a single person who does not collect the plastic bags and reuse them. My next problem is that you used expensive make up wipes instead of cheap paper towels to do this with. Why would you waste those expensive little circle things? And finally, why would you even wonder if using the acetone would damage your manicure? You must know that acetone is meant to takeoff nail polish. Even if you have UV paint on your nails, it can make it mottle and will eventually take it off.
First
One video a month should be subscriber provided like an idea that requires the subscriber to send in something sully and you critique it because again making a video a week is fustrating no one wants to see you burn out and just commenting on what people send in should be an easy video to put out i hope
