Trying Clickbait Clothing "Hacks" From Instagram
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 сен 2024
- So I've been seeing these clothing and fashion hack videos all over Instagram, and they always seem so incredibly strange that I decided to test a bunch of them out and see how they were! We tried a few out from different instagram accounts and pages and ended up with a boxer bralette, a laminated shirt, a skirt weighed down with coins, a bra strap necklace, and napkin shoes!
Don't forget to cast your tattoo vote at the end of the video before Tuesday afternoon!

Safiya Nygaard hi
Yes mommy
Have a bra? If you cut it up, and hot glue it together in a specific way, you can make a bra!
YEAH!!!!!!
That's my face thing to do at a weekend
Hmm yes the bra here is made out of bra
XD
It's probably for in case you have a backless dress or something similar.
You can also make a mask with a bra
With the graphic tee hack, I think that there's a reason that we see a child and a man wearing them. The graphic is literally a stiff picture attached to the shirt. It couldn't survive boobage.
That's what I was thinking haha. I have enough problem with professionally made shirts by themselves
The "hack" final result was probably done with transfer paper specially made for that stuff. Looks like when I used to make graphic tees for myself as a Teen~ those transfers actually are flexible enough to survive even a decent amount of boobage
THATS WHAT I SAID TO MYSELF😂
👍 ✔ 👍 true
True lol 😂
Stupid fact, Queen Elizabeth actually has weights sewed into her hems to avoid any gust issues
wow
Weren't her skirts were like already heavy enough for wind to lift them up
@strawberry kun I meant Queen Elizabeth 2nd lol
@@samanthabaines3578 ooooohhhh,so like the current queen of England,I thought you were talking about the first one ,thanks
Our homie Elizabeth been using these hacks before they were INVENTED
me at the store:
cashier: you're 25 cents short
me: *rips quarter from under my skirt* no I'm not

A set of 5 chokers at Walmart is 4.88 and a bra is easily around $30-$40. Totally not worth it lol
Girrrrl Burlington is the best place to buy bras! I got a convertible bra for $6
@@ANoteToSelf thanks now i don't have to spend money later
@@smolcactispaceship9005 but, if you are already going to go get the rosettes at Wal-Mart or JoAnn's or wherever, why not just get a little bit of ribbon there? You can buy it by the spool for under a dollar, and in several colors. Cut it slightly bigger than your neck and tie it on. And while you are at the store, hit the bead aisle and pick up a couple of large pendant beads for a couple of bucks and use all that leftover ribbon to make more chokers.
Adrianne damn my bras are like $2-5
More like £5-£10 and I think you'd use an old bra that you don't like, got stained (idk how 😂) or doesn't fit you
the pennies in the skirt is a very old trick, i know old ladies who used to do that for modesty's sake (of course they were sewn into little pockets, rather than taped, because duh)
i thought it was genius
Yeah, I was going to say that this is totally a thing - more people ought to know about it, because it’s a good trick for always looking really put together, and also makes your skirt look great if you spin around. Musical theatre uses that trick sometimes for dance numbers!
Algrenion. Curtains have a “lead” thread on the bottom.
The trick is to sew two pieces of scrap fabric so they overlap in a square, so you can take the coins out if you need them but they're not going anywhere
I think there might be something out there that you can sew into the hems to do the job and is made just for that. I'm a bit into sewing and such so ik there's so many things out there that are hardly known or found in fast fashion items and some are really cool and should be there in your everyday clothes but idk for sure if there's something that's specified for this issue as I personally never had it since I usually make/wear maxi skirts made from thick fabric (my preference for comfort) so both the length and the fabric make the skirt heavy enough on its own
You could totally sew on some metal washers instead
As a regular mod-podger, I recommend laying down a thin layer BEFORE putting on the napkin, to help it lay flat, and letting it dry completely (i.e. overnight) before ripping away the excess.
Melanie Magolan THANK YOU. she was driving me nuts not glueing correctly lol
Also, I think the napkin hack would work better if you sort of like, decopauged the napkin on rather than laying the entire thing on. Idk. I haven’t tried it. Surprisingly.
Autumn Mairen The thing is, she followed the steps in the video which were extremely unclear. She did try her best by reading comments below the video and looked for a suitable type of spray. However, not everyone is a DIY genius. It is normal that she made mistakes.
@@TienTran-jo2wu Yeah. Like the whole point was trying out those hacks to see if they work and if anybody could do them. Not what to do to actually make them work. If that interests you I recommend Anne Reardon's channel, but this is clearly 5 minutes craft's wrong doing.

I feel like the bra-destruction hacks could be cool if you have an old or damaged bra that you were planning on throwing out anyway 🤷🏻♀️
That's what I did with an old one of mine
Thrift store?
Yeah, or one that's too small
@@mysteria_1305 who wants to buy a used bra? Lol no thanks
@@lizg8346 People who can't afford a new one? Poor people exist. However, if it's someone's favorite bra, it's likely too worn out to be of any use to someone else.
Challenge Suggestion: Dress like a randomized Sim for a week.
Haha yes
Hell yes please
YES
Oh boi yes please
YES. THIS SHOULD BE A THING. (sorry about the caps.) :P
If you're glueing small items like that, you're less likely to burn yourself if you apply the glue to its destination, not on the item itself.
I'm a little confused by what you mean destination? Could you provide an example please?
Oop Nevermind I just got to that part in the video, I see what you mean. Definitely, 100% agree
hey non of your actually useful life hacks here! :P
me at the store:

Apparently, Bras aren't too expensive for 5 minute crafts. I would like them to donate a size 38 C my way, thank you.
Pretty sure they get donated bras or second hand bras because it seems to me like they are actually old and stretched out.
@@ViJay-jw3nc they look new for me.
@@juliashirokova8374 same lol
In the time that you take to do all that u could just run to the store and get it
Send some 30 c's my way. Because everywhere they sell cheap bras (like Primark) they never go below 32 for C! And they have some really cute bras.
The weighted skirt hack is a real thing that some fashion designers do. They typically sew a metal chain or metal bead necklace into the hem. It weighs the hem down amd gives skirts and dresses that nice catwalk swish
tealduck I love your profile picture!
I think that Coco Chanel invented this. I have done it before to one of my skirts and it worked really well
Yes! And Kate Middleton has her skirts weighed down as well!
Exactly, not only designers, I am pretty sure I heard this tip even from my grandma - sewing little metal beads or appropriate little weights in the skirt. I would really question coins, there are better things imo, and definitely better things than a tape..
Yeah, if you go to a fabric store, they sell dress weights you can use. Pretty sure I've seen them on Amazon, too.
"Where it is wildly inappropriate to not wear a bra, but totally okay to not wear underwear. Like right now. You cant see my bottom half, but can see my top half" really is a 2021 mood.
I had a friend in college that sewed small fishing weights into the hems of the skirts to keep them from flying up in the ND wind. Worked great.
Petersen I read somewhere that all of the skirts worn by the queen of England get weights sewn into it, so there is zero chance of ever flashing anyone
I went to an insanely windy school and lots of mums used to sew washers into the hems of school dresses to stop them blowing up.
Petersen instead of fishing weight,my mom sewed old coins
Just don't wear them to the airport haha
Wouldn't sitting on these items (coins, fishing weights, etc) be highly uncomfortable?
The shoe thing is real, and it’s called “decoupage,” but from what I can tell it’s a little more involved than the hack would lead you to believe. It looks like Saf had the right idea about putting the paper in pieces first, and you should apply a layer of Modpodge under the paper, then smooth any wrinkles out before doing the top coat. I also think tissue or napkin might be too lightweight to get a good result.
I've heard Queen Elizabeth has weights in the hems of her dresses, as it would be "un-Queenly" for her skirt to fly over her head. I kinda agree, that's what gives her majesty. The rest of us just blush (since we don't look like Marilyn).
Yes, she uses little weights designed to help curtains hang properly
i liked the fact and liked the comment before i even realised the pun. wow.
@@thelovelymisshill also many peices of card to keep them stiff and up (example being in her sleeves)
the weight of any garment is important: kind of unrelated, but U. S. Army used to mandate that for official photos personnel had to wear the winter full wool Army Green uniform and not the lightweight mixed fabric coat and pants.
Because the "heavy" one is sharper and fall without any innatural line.
I look like a kid caught in a tent because I'm 5 foot feck all.
OMG safiya should put quarters in that banana skirt she bought in another video so she can say “there’s always money in the banana skirt”
Madison W YES!
Awesome!!
She needs to do this
How does this make so much sense yet so little
What I'm wondering is instead of quarters, why not just purchase some metal buttons/stainless steel washers to permanently attach to the hem of the skirt? Then you wouldn't have to continue to pay rent to the hemline.
metal buttons are actually pretty expensive; unless perhaps you ordered them from china...
Because that would make sense(cents, heheheh) and we’re not about that here.
I've seen fabric weights somewhere before. You just sew them into/onto the hem of your skirt and it stays down in the wind.
@@hcbfhwjdjckek or, if you are still at home as you suggested, you can just, idk, change skirts. Certainly faster than taping down quarters (honestly I rarely ever have change lying around in the house any more since I use my debit card more often than cash). Seriously, taping down quarters (raise your hand if you actually carry around fabric tape) just seems like a good way to lose $1.50. They are not going to stay put.
the quarter hack could be useful. but i would sew them into a new hem instead of tape. more secure, and I have more string then tape lying around my house.
That thing about the quarters in the skirt is pretty old. I remember as a tiny little thing, reading an American Girl magazine which made mention that back in the day, girls living on the prairie would sow buckshot into their hems to keep the wind from blowing their skirts up.
*sew

these hacks are basically a guide to spend a lot of time, energy and effort on something just to get mediocre results that then force you to buy/ get the actual thing so add money to the equation, too.
Exactly!
If you use old clothing and you are broke why not...there is nothing to lose I do those diys all that time
@@luisasilva5638 True enough, a lot of students are broke. I was thinking that they would be helpful hacks for people who live away from any shops, with no public transport.
Imagine wearing that skirt through a metal detector. 😂😂😂 the security will give you a hard time.
i was just thinking this lol
Prajesh Trivedi Easily untaped, can be reattached without sharp tools if using precut pieces of tape or sown pockets in the hem (fold the edge one inch then then sew short stints from fold towards top, making a row of 1"x1" open inside pockets, distribute coins according to style of the day). Bonus: For best weight per dollar, consider using dimes, cents or pebbles. For maximum value use expensive jewelry.
Oml 😂
I love how positive Safiya is even if she’s doubtful of what it is that she’s doing
"I got excited by the selection at Joanne's" story of my life tbh
Dress weights used to be a thing in the 50’s and 60’s according to my grandmother
Edit: she says that you either clipped them onto the hem or there were tiny pockets sown in that you would slip them into. She said nowadays you could probably stitch some washers to your skirt (the washers have holes in them to make them easy to attach) and they would do the same thing
Elizabeth that is a brilliant hack! Thanks for sharing the information from your grandmother!
elizabeth manha what a clever idea!!!
Apparently it's what the UK Royal family do - there was a big drama a bunch of years back when Kate hadn't done it and the skirt flew up!
That’s genius!!
Safiya could you do trying to cook five IG RECIPES!!!! Or twitter recipes and have Tyler try it!!! Lol
Basically the same as threadbanger though?

'"she - as in the one with the hands"' is quite possibly the best discription of a woman I've ever heard
It's the best description of anyone I've ever heard, bar some Lemony Snicket-tier things.
For the quarter skirt if you used washers instead they could be sewn onto the skirt.
GENIUS
This level of pure genius isn't allowed on this channel lmao jk that's actually a really good idea
@@jomac8519 thank you!
Be careful about what they are made of. Some metals will oxidize and become pigments.
hem weights are nothing new. they're just too expensive for mass production, even in more expensive designer apparel. you can find them at sewing stores in different sizes and weights already attached to ribbon so its easy to sew into a hem.
I think a lot of these hacks are meant to be upcycle. Like instead of throwing away your old bra you can turn it into something else. You should check out a RUclips channel called Coolirpa. She does videos where she thrift for very dodgy clothing and then turn them into very nice clothes. Maybe you can try to follow one as well for a video.
Yea but it would still make an entertaining video, and educate people about thrifting and upcycling. The point isn't to make it as perfect as April does. Even just a simple one would be entertaining.
Or an Annika Victoria video! They're both so great.
Annika Victoria is a little easier for beginners to follow, but Coolirpa is fun to watch, too!
True. But seeing Safiya struggle is also part of the fun. She can do both. Starting from Annika and then try April's
Adding penny’s into the hem of a garment is an old dress makers hack. But instead of taping them they are inserted into the roll of the hem during making of it

Don't tape coins, sew washers on they have a hole in them & everything so easy to sew & they stay on better.
That's a really good idea!! But one issue I might have is that the washers might damage other clothes or the washing machine.
wwaxwork you could even rip the hem, place them inside and then sew the hem back up after tacking them in place
Def D. Also I think with ModPodge you are supposed to put a layer down then put the napkin or whatever on top while its wet, then put another layer on top.
My mom used to work at AC Moore (Basically Michael's) and she did something similar to the shoe hack for them where she mod podge'd comic book pages onto some high heels and it actually turned out really cool! But she told me it works better on shoes without texture so I think that's also why the video showed those shiny smooth shoes. If only they told you that in the video
exaggeratedeyeroll also, I'd add that decoupage technique is to apply glue, than tissue, than glue again, so tissue would stick properly. And need to pull it gently while applying to avoid wrinkles as much as possible. Yeah, this DIY is not easy
If you're doing that to shoes, you have to use a thicker paper, like comic book pages or stronger. A thin layer to glue the paper to the shoe, then a little bit thicker layer on the top. Let it dry and cure, about a day, and it's ready when it's not tacky to the touch. Then you have to layer it again and let dry 24-48 hours again. If you're not too impatient, do it a third time. But 2 layers minimum.
Bra visible? Cut it off.

Weighted skirts are a thing! That’s what the Queen of England supposedly used to keep her skirts down.
One of the 'hacks' I've seen renn faire people do is add fishing weights to the hem of the skirt (they're smaller and easier to conceal, plus they're heavier than quarters)
Yeah she uses curtain weights
They're crazy if they think we're going to cut our bras.

lol you're supposed to coat the shoe in mod podge and then stick the napkin to it.
Let it dry and then coat the outside 😂😂🤦♀
Never realized how glad I am that I learned how to use mod podge in high school
Exactly. When she went right for the napkin on top the shoe I was like “oh no! What are doing?! I can’t watch.” 🙈😂😂 but maybe the original video didn’t explain that. Guess Only an experienced modpoger/crafter would know that? 🤷🏼♀️😋
Exactly what I was thinking ^😂😂🤦♀
I was thinking the same thing. Glue, napkin, another layer of glue let dry, and then clear coat
**cringe** no no no!! I love my mod podge and forget not everyone uses daily lol 🤣
I think the colours also come into play too, like a white base napkin on a white shoe rather than a grey one on a black shoe
Bras are way too expensive for this nonsense!
Whitney Douglas anything is too expensive for this nonsense 😂
I think you could use the old one which is, like, for example too small :3

Life hack for Safiya: screen record the video of the “hack” and then to go to photos to be able to scrub through and just watch the one “hack” you need 👍🏽
saf should have waited for the mod podge to dry before ripping the napkin off, and she should have applied thin coats of mod podge and built it up to avoid wrinkling.
It's paper mache isn't it?
I also think she didn't mix the mod podge with water which might of helped.
Also apply glue to the shoe not on top
Oh really? I didn't know that you are supposes to mix mod podge with water...
I don't think Saf did something wrong. She did exactly what the video showed so there is no way she could have known what to do...
But thank you. This may help others to not make such a mistake 🙂
I think that that actually is the videos fault, because it didn't show her that, which is the point that she was trying to get across. But that's a helpful tip, thanks!

yeah, everyone would be staring at you lol
i'm not lay well on my last time traveling the metal detector went off because of a pack of gum on my pocket (the insides are aluminum I think)
I feel like some of these hacks make much more sense in quarantine. Like hell no im not going out to just buy a crop top, but hey I’ve got time to sew now
next time you do this just screen record the video once so that way you can scroll through and find the steps without having to rewatch the video over and over again😊
just realized someone else commented this as well but it’s fine (i didn’t take their idea i swear😂)
Now THAT'S a good life hack
For the skirt weights, I think sewing fishing weights onto the hem would work better and it is cheap to do.
As someone who has an absurd amount of experience with bizarre crafty skills (I may be the proud owner of a loveseat with no right angles, built from scratch...), I have two big tips for the shoes thing and one for the iron on.
Iron on first, as it’s the quickest- they make printable iron on sheets. Just follow the directions. The only caveat is to be sure that if you want to use a dark shirt, buy the sheets made specifically for dark shirts. Also, they don’t last super long but they do just fine for the occasion fun odd project.
Shoes next. One, I suspect someone with sewing knowledge and/or piecing knowledge might have better luck using cheap, thin cloth napkins. And two, make sure to wait at least one day, preferably several days, between the glue and the spray varnish. The glue needs a chance to fully cure or everything will fall apart after only a few uses. Dry does not equal cure, either. I think the name brand mod podge has a cure time of 3 days, not positive and it’s in the basement so I’ll just say to look it up. And three, a random bonus tip, I’d recommend several light coats of varnish, separated by however long the package recommends. An overly thick coat won’t set right, and t can cause transparency issues (letting you see the old shoe through the napkin rather clearly) and discoloration.
Why did it take me 10 min to realise that I've already seen this video
You can buy things called "skirt weights" that are like $4 for 100pcs that you can sew into the hems of your skirts to weigh them down.
I didn't know about that, thanks
! I will look it up
Have a good day !
You could also take the weights at the bottom of a shower curtain, slide it out and sew that around the skirt...
If you have enough pennies, it might work just as well.

About the quarters on your skirt it's an old method, my grandmother usually did it on her skirts (but she sew them into the skirt)

Is this why I have 12 shades of purple yarn at home??? I don’t even knit......
What's yarn? Is it basically the same thing as wool or completely different?
You need to put a layer of glue on the shoes first. And also watering down the glue a bit so it absorbs into the tissue more. This is an excellent hack so please try it again! You are right to work in small sections, even cutting the tissue into smaller usable pieces
Interestingly, the whole sewing coins inside skirt hems thing is actually an old seamstress trick from way back when, to get them to hang straight.
Not just way back when! Queen Elizabeth's dressmakers sew weights into her skirts and coat hems for all her official visits so the paparazzi don't get any weird photos of her clothes blowing around (even though her skirts are long enough that nothing would show).
Soooo. As a crafter just a couple of suggestions. 1) on little objects put glue on the destination, rather than the item, you’re less likely to burn yourself that way. Also 2) also I recommend adding mod-podging the shoe first then adding the napkin and then doing a second layer on top of the napkin.
i love watching all these 'hacks' on instagram but id never try it out myself lol
Max But I don't want to see your underwear every time you wear a skirt.

Queen Elizabeth actually has weights sewn into the bottoms of her skirt so it doesn't come up in the wind!
I was thinking the same thing!!!! LOL
I love how she was wearing a bra underneath the crafted bra.
as someone who does mod podge a lot. the downfall was the pattern of napkin, as well as technique. first, you need a pattern that if full of color. like in the video. if not it becomes "clear" and you see the shoe, and any imperfections. as for technique, you MUST apply a layer of mod podge to the shoe, then place the napKin in sections while still wet. then apply more mod podge over top. it must be applied to every inch of shoe you want the napKin to be or it will not tare well. also tare when dry.
That's what I was thinking. Blame the video she was working from!
kcanded yes, that video, was vague, and did not show how to do it at all.
I think they thin the modge podge with some water too. That really helps thin out the napkin and get it into the crevices. Take it from me, I'm an avid decoupager lol
I don't think you're aware, but your phone or mic is replacing "tear" (the present tense for taking apart something) for "tare" (a type of plant).
My swipe key leads me to all kinds of shenanigans, too.
achanwahn thanks for catching the typo. I think I got the point across though.
saf can you do an episode where you go thrifting and create a whole outfit with a small amount of time +not trying them on in the dressing room !!
The mod podge shoes are something that is real. They just didn't do it right in the video. It's also a better idea to do it with comic books or magazine clippings instead of napkins
about the graphic tee hack. it does work you just have to use. the really cheap dollar store plastic wrap so it can melt
I had a friend do that wish shoes but they used comic books instead. Turned out great, you just gotta try to keep the paper from wrinkling when you do it.
Safiya, GIRL, YOU HAVE LEGIT NPR REPORTER VOICE! I mean this as a huge compliment. You sound like you'd be a correspondent reporter on "This American Life." AMAZING
So true
I feel like If I stapled my pants closed I’d sit down and get stabbed by staples
Emma Tuite yeah ouch
cynthia zhang lol back when I didn’t know how to sew I’d staple shit together and it looked whack lmao
Can we have crusty merch tho? Srsly that shirt is bomb af. Repost ( or recommend if you agree.)
Every time they destroy a bra in those videos I died a little on the inside...those things are worth 50$ now days!!!
Maybe if you have an old bra or one that doesn’t fit properly? But yeah... and $50 is optimistic for some bra sizes lol 😩
You can get good ones at Ross for like $10!
"She, as in, the one with the hands, " - Safiya Nygaard, 2018
you have a good name
Honestly if you guys turned that picture into a real shirt (I.e not ironed on) I would buy that merch.
Kaylee Kach yes yes yes! Hahah.
What i love about safiya is that she gives hacks full chance rather than just telling them a fail like others.
What if you screen recorded the video and you could just move the progress bar back and forth from your photos
@Cubert Pigg you can install am app for that
Me: screen records video and watches it
FBI: FBI OPEN UP!!!
I WAS JUST ABOUT TO SUGGEST THIS
Just go to the youtube channel: ruclips.net/user/5MinuteCraftsRUclips
Instead of using quarters, you could sew washers into the hemline. They're cheaper, and you can choose the right size/weight. 😁
I’m so curious what they ACTUALLY do on these videos to make it look so good
Ivie Coesens have sewing skills and experience. None of which i have
Kate Esway I kind of thought so too but some of these are pretty far fetched lol. Like the napkin shoe one. How could that ever work..? Idk it might just be skill
It could be possible for the napkin shoe one to happen to have a shoe that has the exact same pattern as the napkin or they could just be really skilled. Both are kinda far fetched however.
The modpodged shoe does work, it just takes a lot of time and you have to be very careful. A layer of modpodge first, then the napkin, carefully smoothed out with a brush and another layer of modpodge on top. I guess they made it look a lot easier in the video, because the real process would be far too long and detailed to squeeze it in a couple seconds of film.
I actually did that with a pair of shoes and some fabric once and it turned out quite pretty, but it made the shoes very stiff and uncomfortable to wear. So I wouldn't recommend it. xD
legit that one person just used transfer paper and tried to pretend it was a hack
"Move over Dwyane Johnson these shoes are coming for your wig!" 😭🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👏🏾👏🏾
PLEASE MAKE CRUSTY MERCH I WOULD SO WEAR THAT SHIRT 💗
Right?! I would buy that!
Hacks. "How tu destroy your clothing creatively and lose a lot of time" - that's more like it.
That bra strap choker life was one I lived in the late 90s. It was a thing, I swear! We had bras with removable straps though that literally had prints and patterns meant for you to show them 😂
Yes! I had a "bra strap" headband! It was sold as a headband, but in the style of... I wore it with my spaghetti strap tank top, jean shorts, and those brown woven leather platformy sandals that were so big--man I thought I was the coolest!
i am an art therapist. i really LOVE your approach to these hacks. even if it doesn't work or look as you expected, you just keep going and look for the positive in it. because of this temperament, you will always win at life. attitude of grattitude = winning at life. well done mr and mrs. nygaard, you have raised a woman with a healthy dose of self confidence
I'm so happy you did this. I always see these and wonder what that would look like if I tried it.
