A lil about me:
Im a 22 year old from Gippsland, Victoria. I started Madebytaylahrose when I was 15 years young. I decided to make a youtube channel to post my tutorials and tips/tricks that Ive learnt being a young entrepreneur over the last 6 years.
Machines:
Elna experience 550
Elna Air Artist embroidery machine
Singer Heavy Duty 4423
Wow. You’re a legend. I’m going to show this to my 13 yr old who loves to sew. I think it will motivate her.
Have you thought of buying an industrial machine? I bought a secondhand Juki and it is amazing but it also automatically cuts the thread! This would save you time and wastage
What version of Joki??
No need to go industrial to get the automatic thread cutter. The computerized Singer Heavy Duty does the same thing.
I bought scrunchies from you like 2 years ago and your video just popped up on my recommended! They’re my favorite scrunchies btw
I can only make 3 scrunchies in 1 hour ☹️ you're so amazing 💕
that's so me before, now I can make 45 scrunchies in 1h just because I've been sewing since I'm 7 and now I'm 14 bc my mom is a sewer so I have a lot of experience.
Samee gurrl
same but now i have sewibg machine 40 scrunchies I makein 1 hour. and the old months im needling only i have no sewingmachine that time/*
True
That's Good!
One of the scrunchie fabrics matched with your shirt.
The way you sew your strips and then cut them just changed my life 😍😍
I know right? Mine too! Only thing is I’m surprised it doesn’t come undone after the tubes are cut in three.
Thank you! My partner actually suggested it when we first started dating! Best idea and makes it so much quicker
@@TaylahRose I took it on this week and has saved me so much time
Hi do you how much you sell those?
i can make 1 scrunchie in 30 minutes once i tried to make 100 it took me a week and u do it that fast I'm impressed
Hi. Can i know your measurement?
Wow. I used to take long to make one too, persistence and practice makes perfect
@@ennarazali I measured 40cm × 7cm
Watching you put that glue bottle upright each time was making me crazy. Lol! I, too am a crafter and use glue but I have it upside down in a embossing heat tool holder. No need to shake and squeeze especially how quick you use it. You’re amazing! I will look at a homemade scrunchie in a different light from now on.
i dont understand, what type of glue is that? i dont need to close it with doble knot??? its secure ?
@@milenaale She uses the glue to temporarily hold the elastic in place so its easier to sew across with thread, glue alone would not be secure but sewn across it is fine

@@ebiosh2032 Thank you for the explanation. I was wondering what magic kind of glue is this
Your hair keeps getting in the way and you keep flipping it back. I think you could do with a scrunchie!
Same, omg I wanted to tell her so bad, then I found your comment. LOL
She did end up putting one in lol
🤣🤣😂😂
What a great marketing technique 😂😂
Hahahha this is a funny comment
To help streamline your gluing process place the bottle upside down in a glass with a damp paper towel in the bottom. It will save you time with trying to get the glue to come out. The wet towel will stop the glue from leaking and messing up the glass.
I love how you videos are geared toward young people and easy for us older people to learn as well
You're right. Education is expensive. You're only taught the bare minimum for tons of money invested. However, I am thankful for my degrees be because it taught me time management with work, school, and "College Life Festivities." Lol... It also taught me responsibilities, since it was the first time being on my own, when I entered college. Very thankful.
I like the fact you have a wide variety of fabric. Congratulations on your business success! Thanks for sharing.
You just totally blew my mind. I'm pretty sure you will be able to do anything you dream of doing. Just think of all the smiles you create. Beautiful! You and your Scrunchies.
You should totally go for a world record of the most scrunchies sewed in 12 hours 😀
Wow! This is truly amazing! I am a scrunchie nut, I just love scrunchies. I used to make mine by sewing them with my hands. Only a few of them because they were more time consuming. I still enjoyed making them though. Great job on your scrunchy business! Just truly amazing! Thank you for the video! 👍👍🙆🏻♀️🇨🇦
WOF = width of fabric ☺️😊
well done on all your work
I just started to make a bunch of scrunchies and I have already used all the different patterns and fabric on ‘em 😂
You need an industrial babe! It will help make sewing so much faster :) and larger bobbins :)
A Chainstitch! Never fill a bobbin again!
@@jesscox3128 lol same 😂
It’s cool seeing your method of making scrunchies for your business! I haven’t seen the elastic ends glued together! I have tremors and my hands will just drop and let go of things so sewing over the elastic is a nightmare for me! I’ll have to try this the next time I make some! I love that you use thicker elastic also! I already had tons of the 1/4 inch elastic from mask making and the scrunchies just seem to slip out of my insanely thick hair. I’m going to pick up some elastic the next time I’m at the store!
Did you make some? How did it go?
@@harmonydevaney8940 I did make some and it was so easy doing the elastic. I have really bad tremors in my hands that make everything insanely difficult. But gluing the elastic was so much easier! I did use 1 inch elastic and based on the results I believe it’s too thick. I also used non roll elastic. It doesn’t stretch much. I’m not sure if it’s the right type of elastic for my hair. I have insanely thick and coarse hair. I’d say try out different elastics and widths.
Love your videos! Can you do a vlog showing how you organise/store your fabrics, what patterns and types of fabric you have and use? Thank you! Keep up the awesome work 👏
I am glad to see I am not the only one who uses glue to put the Elastic together...I add one step though and zig zag mine after they are glued..They seem to hold together better with the extra tack on them. I can do about 50 within an hour. I have recently started to make them so I can get ready to sell them as well.
Hello, i'm going to start a scrunchie business too ! But i feel that i'm slow at making them i can make like 5 an hour , but i dont do the same method as her
There are so many fabrics you used that I use for Scrunchies aswell, spotlight fabrics are the best!!
I'm bingewatching your videos. I love it! It's so inspiring. And you are always so happy!
Don't feel bad for being addicted to fabric I'm addicted to scrunchies 😍
You really professional doing this..u already know the technics to make this fast and neat
You are literally a legend !!!!!! Lemma say queen of scrunchies!! The most important part you really motive people please keep going and doing it with that love an passion
Left of Field question, but did you make that top? I thought I saw some of the same fabric as it in the scrunchie stash. If so, what pattern is is? Those sleeves are amazing and now I want to track that pattern down for myself!
Also RUclips recommends brought me here! So inspiring to watch you bulk-make scrunchies.
Hello! Thanks so much for watching 😀 I’m afraid this is a store bought top (loved it so much that I got 3 different colours!) I purchased from a small boutique shop in Phillip island last year 😀
@@TaylahRose what’s the pattern of the scrunchies that look like the top called in your shop?
@@TaylahRose Ahh! Drat! Well, at least now I have some inspiration for a pattern to track down :D
Can't blame you for buying three of them, they're gorgeous!
Just stumbled upon your channel and omg, you are an inspiration ❤ Got so much respect for your hustle and grind~
Agreed! Young entrepreneurs are so amazing!
i rly love seeing how passionate u are about this.. go girl! I love diy stuff
You don't bored us or me I love sewing
I love your Good vibe !! Now you have another subscriber!!! Keep growing !!!
I love your videos and you make me so motivated to start my own business! Are you able to share the process of how you cut your fabric out? Do you use a pattern or measure it out and trace with a marker etc? That's the part I find so hard when I go to start sewing anything and it discourages me from getting started!
If you watch her vids, she only cuts the width. She sews them together wrong sides facing each other, flips them right side out, then she cuts her length. You should watch her first videos cause tbey have more info of her process.
Your title caught my eyes. I said, no way she can make 1m scrunchies in 12 hours. I thought you're going to crochet it. That's awesome
Wow! Only found you tonight (by error!!) and I'm absolutely delighted with you.
Watching your videos has kick started me to do something with all the material (and scraps and offcuts and mistake pile....!!) I have here in every room in our house!!
I'll be following you from now on!
I'll maybe even post a photo if I succeed! 🤣🤣

Hi Mary. Did you end up making lots of scrunchies ?😊
Me:making 1 scrunche in a hour
You:making 1 millions in 12 hours
Totally random, but when you’re glueing the elastic, you should try using some sort of stand to hold your glue bottle sideways. I noticed that you kept shaking the bottle to move the glue so I think this would help save a bunch of time when it comes to gluing. I love the vid btw, it’s such a good vibe :)
c'est ce à quoi je pensais mais que se passerait-il s'il se renversait sur la table
Yes! I thought this as well! But I just got a 3D printer so now I see 3D printing opportunities everywhere.
A tall glass or jar could help 😊
Lots of love and respect your way. Very very proud of you
Someone else has probably told you by now ….WOF means width of fabric. I love your channel 😊
good luck for your business, love from sri lanka 🇱🇰,
i am also doing small biz like this, 💫❤️
Awesome video. I can not wait to try making these. I now have to go back and watch your videos. Thanks
My elastic width I use is 5mm, it is an okay width but I love how your thick elastic Scrunchies look
oooh when you go to the markets next weekend are you able to vlog it? it’s ok if you can’t you’ll probably be busy selling your amazing productss
Well done Rose. Great work 🥰🥰
I hope to!! Will have to see how I go 😃😃
You're so pretty🥺 i love your accent❤️
How much do you charge for a scrunchy and where can i purches them.
I make scrunchies too. When your glue bottle is less then half full, leave it laying on its side so the glue doesn't sink to the bottom in between uses ;)
I paid over 30k in college tuition.( also business classes)...and you're making the right choice not continuing. I didn't learn much of anything. You're better off learning what you need for your business or work from others for free right here on RUclips or pay for certain things on skillshare, etc. Also..great job on this video. Have a wonderful day!
How is your tip of your flip arrow. Im so in love with that. I need one. Thank you for your videos. Im from México and you aré the scrunchie's queen
Thank you!! The flip stick is amazing so easy to make I think it’s got a bit of duct tape or something on the tip then a little bit of hot glue inside the hole that the duct tape made so it stays without flicking off!
WOF means width of fabric.
Worked at a fabric store in college 👍🏻
Great job I loved making scrunchies also they are great for gifts
You don't fool me, Jennifer Lawrence. Using magic tricks, I've got my eye on you.
alright, I accept a challenge. I can make 1 for every........ 100 scratch that, 1000 that you do! lol I think the idea of sewing a long tube and then cutting it into the right lengths is a perfect way. You don't have to worry about backstitching because it will be sewn over. Thanks for sharing!
Hi. Can you tell us the measurements for your regular scrunchies??
WOF - Width of Fabric i think :)
Yes, that is correct.
Yeah width of fabric is correct
So many. But so glad you finally used one of your own scrunching because it can be annoying seeing someone mess with their long hair nearly every 5 seconds.
Beautiful tutorial 🌼 absolutely love it. Thank you!
I am absolutely in love with that top!! 😍 It looks so good on you!!
i be en watching all your vids i must admit i learnt how to make my own scrunchies i have made bout 60 of them now and still tend to make loads more keep up the good work they really easy to do took a few practice but got there in the end now i dont even think now it just comes naturally now am also following you on facebook also but am sure loving your videos xx
Thank you so much! 😁
12 hr x 60 min = 720 min
720 min / 210 scrunchies = 3.428 minutes
.428 minutes x 60 seconds = 25.68 seconds
3 minutes and 26 seconds per scrunchie, slightly faster than your math lol.
i hate myself for being this person lol
Aha I knew Ild mess it up somehow! Thanks Amaia for doing the math! 😀
I can only make 3 scrunchie in 1 hour. You ar amazing ❤️❤️💞
Hey, do you mind making a video showing how to make that wood stand that flips the the fabric
I bet a paper towel holder that sits on a counter would work great for something like that
You are not boring us. We are here because we want to see👀
You're 22? You speak some wisdom girl. You're making some smart decisions in life. If you don't feel like you're getting anything out of school definitely don't pay for it. ♡ (speaking from 2 degrees LOL). Keep up the good work!
love your vlogg videos
Thank you!!
I think 1000 might have been a more realistic number to aim for 🤣 I wouldn’t have thought anyone could make a full time income making scrunchies but here we are! Good for you!
These scrunchies are beautiful!!!
New subbie!!
WOF - Width of Fabric I believe! I had the same problem 😂
I feel so silly I googled it and laughed 😂😂
So great
I have a fabric addiction too .. I used to make fairy dresses and kids dress up costumes and other little bits and pieces about fifteen years ago and sell at the local markets …I’ve always thought one day I will do it again so I have kept all my bulk sewing stuff .last time I had a quick count I had about 80 x 60 litre tubs of fabrics …lol…
One day I will get going again 😊
I also went through a short lived quilting phase , I have several hundred fat quarters and I have hardly touched it …lol…one day 😗
Do you have a method for pricing your items? This is always a problem for me because even though I know all my costs to make handmade items I never charge enough for labour and markup. What is your method for pricing handmade? Do you try to price them within a range or do you buy fabrics to stay within your range? BTW...you are so sweet! You have so much passion for what you do!
keep it up may god bless you n bless your business n may your bussines go from strenght to strenght
WOF = width of fabric. Standard is about 44", but some comes wider.
I find sewing my scrunchie the way you do more easily than the normal way. You can actually get more done that way.
I think so too! 💞
That fabric stash is immaculate compared to what I’ve got 😍
I have problems with everything lol...some serious fabric and yarn addictions. I just added scrunchies to mine and my sisters Etsy shop and while they are not all posted yet I already have 64 options lol. And as a crocheter I seriously have so many different yarns it's ridiculous! Lol
Yesss I can’t stop myself for buying my fabric I feel you ahah 🥰
wof= width of fabric from selvage to selvage
You should definitely invest in an industrial machine. I did for my small handmade biz and has been so worth it. They are also quieter 😉
For your timing math - did you take into account that a minute has 60 seconds and that 3.42 is three minutes and 42/100 of a minute. So your speed is more like 3 minutes 25 seconds.
Impressive:)
I lost all my brain cells reading this! Your soooo smart keep up the great and awesome work!
Hope to also see how to make of DIY stick turner like what your dad made 😍💕🙏
it's literally a board with an attached dowel with glue on the tip. No instructions are necessary. it's pretty self-explanatory.
Have you tried clipping the fabric and the elastic.. then when you pull it up have a line to snip the elastic at and cut ?
The elastic is way shorter than the cut fabric though to create the ripple, it wouldn’t work that way
Beautiful friend😃very nice good work😃✌️..
great work taylah ‼️🙃💯
i made 22 in 45 mins what takes me the longest is trying to turn them the right way bit of a pain aha but it worth it in the end xx
That’s great Lorraine! Have a look at this video, this is what makes my flipping process so much quicker
ruclips.net/video/s-fur907ujg/видео.html
Love your shirt! Is it selfmade aswell? I noticed you made scruncies in the same fabric as your shirt! So please i would have love to know the pattern/tutorial you used!
X2
So....I got the thicker, wider elastic and cut It a half inch longer than I normally would. It’s way too tight! 😭 what length do you cut yours? And with yours can you do a bun with insanely thick hair? But when I do have It in my hair It actually feels really secure! I’m glad I happened to find this video! ❤️
I believe she uses 20 cm long. I read some of her products on her website.
Wof is width of fabric. Some are 54' and some are 60' (here in America).
It important to enjoy what you do! 🙂💗
Hi hi. This is very inspiring and so kewl. I love scrunchies too and been thinking about making some. Congrats to yah 😄
Your so great at making scrunchies! Cant beleive how many you make per hour! I myself can make up to 27 per hour
Would it be possible to do the elastic part at the same time as flipping them? If you put one end to the top of the stick and then slide the fabric over it, would it flip all together? It’s hard for me to picture how it fully works and so I could be completely wrong but I just figured I’d mention it. :)
Do you have a video on how to make labels? What machine and fabric do you use? Thanks❤
How did you go about closing them in the end and sewing them shut.
I switch to 1mm stitching and sew across the opening :) I have a Scrunchie tutorial on my channel that shows this method!
@@TaylahRose to
I’m a new fan/follower! I’d love to try do you have the instructions via pdf? Measurements? TIA!
Hello, Taylah! I never tire of watching your videos. It seems that no matter how many times I view them, I always learn something new. I have another question about the wide, non-roll, ribbed elastic you use on your Scrunchies. Believe it or not, I have never worn one. Ok, so when you use the wide elastic it seems very stiff which I'm assuming is the purpose. It seems so tight, trying to wrap it around my hand twice to put over a pony tail. I remember you saying that yours stays in even when you sleep? Maybe my problem is I was trying to double the scrunchie before putting it on the pony tail. Do you double it or just slip it over the pony tail as is? Thank you so much. Congratulations on your SEVEN YEARS! You are amazing.
I love these videos! I have just posted my first small biz video to youtube this week!!
Wof= width of fabric (if it wasn’t mentioned before :) ). great job!
When making the scrunchies, do you need to secure the stich at the beginning and end please xx
Man I love this video 😍
I have started a scrunchie business as well but there's alot left more 😌 it's all handmade but people prefer those from factories since it's cheaper, all the Scrunchies I made is still left here, not sold, just left here 😞 spend so many nights cutting the fabric, and sewing but now all the motivation is in vain 😞
keep advertising...don't lose hope
Haha! I'm the same way with my soap business. It's hard to sit down and relax, I feel like I should be making something.
You are my inspiration
Liked your video. You could put some thick fabric or placemats under your machine so it doesn’t rock. Also, if you’re making this many, invest in a good table and comfy chair for yourself.
The fabric glue with the elastic has changed my life! Along with the longer tube! Does the stitching not come undone when you cut them in three?
Not really! Especially if it’s already flipped 😃 if it does I usually use that end to tuck under it’s rarely something that causes me any trouble 😊😊x
Thanks! I’m going to try this next time I cut my mountain of scrunchie tubes out!
I never thought just glue would hold x
It doesn’t hun, she uses it temporarily until you see her sew over the join.
