    Thank you so much KiwiCo for sponsoring this video!!
    OKAAAYY so, I once again have added W H I M S Y to one of my garments, I cannot be stopped. This time, I took a corset (stays??) that I don't really wear much and slapped some paint on there to create two sides that I'm MUCH more likely to wear going forward. Who knew wearing acrylic paint would be so SATISFYING???
    ANYWHOOOO I hope you enjoy, I was a bit tired this week so it's a little simpler than my usual stuff but I'll be back to makin' shtuff next week!
    Thank you for your patience and I LOVE YAAAAAAAAAA

    Costumer’s tip for garments you don’t want to machine wash: fill a spray bottle with water and vodka (not sure on proportions, you can look it up) and spray your clothing down with it. It kills bacteria and makes your clothes not stink.

      Isopropyl alcohol (buy it at 60-70%, or dilute the 91% with distilled water) also works for this. It tends to be cheaper than Vodka (though do NOT use it for dual purpose of drinking…) it also doesn’t run the risk of contacting extra flavorings or preservatives that might stain the cloth that you need to check Vodka for.

At least with accessories, shoes, or jewellery. And, when possible, with a 🌶SPICE🌶 in clothing itself xD

    Oh, the nostalgia! When I was a kid (back in the 80s and 90s), my aunt got a bunch of blank sweatshirts and painted various cartoon characters on the fronts for all of the cousins (and Betty Boop for herself). She didn't cover the whole garment. She'd just slap that cartoon character on the front. No background or anything. Just looked like we were wearing a giant sticker on the front. She even did a denim jacet for my cousin (her oldest daughter), complete with bedazzler bead details! They were fun! I also did Scooby Doo in the top of my mortar board at my highschool graduation! I love how the texture of the fabric shows through. It gives the books a softer, country cabin cozy look. And, of course, one can never have too mant fall leaves. This definitely deserves to be worn out in public. Wear it proudly!

    This is super weird, but I’m gonna say it anyway. Most of your videos have me thinking about how cool it would be to be your kid, growing up around you working on these. Random whimsical projects.

    Honestly, I can't believe I doubted how this would turn out! Omg this became magical! Is there anything this lady can't make cute?! I mean really, I shouldn't have doubted after the jurassic park poodle skirt, which honestly is just perfection. Of course she could make this beautiful.

    I don't wear corsets and I don't think I'll ever paint anything from my wardrobe, but videos like this one always make me smile and motivate me to do my own type of crafts. And yeah, if you're more unique, people tend to comment on that, so better be ready for some attention, lol.

    "I just don't want to wait until I am an excentric old Lady to dress how I want, I'm just gonna do it now!" - oh Rachel, if you could know, how much that silly sentence means to me right now...
    Since I watched Morgans and your channel, I fell in love in farmers-maid-style - and corsetts! Then I heard "cottage core" in a video of yours and have been googling it.
    Few days ago I ordered a tailoring bust, because I waaaaant to make ...a corsett... and lovely stuff (for my mental health, like you would say).
    Just THANK YOU! I love "silly" Rachel ♥

    Honestly- every time I watch a Rachel Maksy production where an insane creation like this has been given life I can’t help but think how?

    Wow, that is my exact view on my wardrobe as well! Why wait to become old and eccentric when I can just decide to wear whatever magical and whimsical clothes I want to wear right now? Also, my jaw literally dropped when you did the final reveal of the painted stays, and now I NEED THEM IN MY LIFE too. I think I have some leafy fabric that resembles your painting in my fabric stash, so now that project has been added to my list of clothes I can’t wait to make! Absolutely gorgeous! 🍁

    I think it's really cool how the weather is featured in these new videos as opposed to the older ones. Before in Rachel's previous house it was "It's raining again, and my house has turned into a Deep Dark Hole." maybe with a clip showing the sky.
    And now that they're in this new house, I feel like Rachel is able to show us the beauty of the weather and how magical it is when the storms come :D

    She really went for it and painted the whole thing. I thought it would super cute to paint Pottsfield on the brown side and Wort and Greg on the orange side and call it good but she really detailed the entire corset and it looks amazing. I will also be seeking out some help to paint all of my clothes I don't like.

    Also. I wish I was able to create with paint the way you do. Do you have any tips on getting it to be realistic but not so painstakingly detailed that you want to cry?

      In case Rachel doesn’t see this question I hope you don’t mind that I leave a tip.
      Step back. If possible, look at it in a mirror or upside down. You only need enough visual information for your brain to fill in the blanks. Stepping back gives you more chance to see the bigger structure and your lights and darks without getting lost in detail.
      I just spent two hours painting a bumble bee, but in the mirror it’s just a blob. I need to take my own advice. Good luck 👍🏻

      Career artist here: when you start to feel the stress in your gut (or shoulders or feet, for me it’s the gut), ESPECIALLY when you feel like you messed something all the way up…
      Put it away for 24 hours or 8 or 2.

      I have used the fabric medium many times for stage costumes. To turn sheets into fancy Greek tunics with key design hems. They were tossed into the wash many times. Note this also works with latex paint. To really set it well iron it with a paper towel between the iron and the paint.
