    This video showed up on my feed 3 years after posting but as someone who is just started sewing/making cosplays this (as well as your page in general) has given me so many new ideas

    I am honestly too sentimentally attached to even like a LITTLE SCRAP PIECE OF FABRIC that my heart just breaks into small pieces when I have to throw them away 😭😭😭

    Well done. Every time I try to clean out my Cosplay, Halloween costumes, and craft things I think, "I may come in handy some day" and I keep it. Sigh.

    • @KirileeCosplay

      I found that I had to be ruthless as possible. There are some costumes I know I simply will not wear ever again.

    Great job! I love that you dont want to waste the older costumes. I know it must have been hard to let go of some of them, but we are all proud of you!

    • @KirileeCosplay

      It was honestly very cleansing. I really need to do it more often.

  • @alaskacosplay
    @alaskacosplay 4 года назад +5

    Oh wow. I now realize I should reorganize my costume closet and probably throw away the ones that arent so great at all. The mountain of petticoats (Mt. Petticoat if you will) is very much relatable as I too have a bunch of petticoats that are just piled on top of boxes of fabric.

  • @ThistlenStitches
    @ThistlenStitches 4 года назад +3

    Look at all those lovely costumes and hard work!! I say... you deserve to takeover any other closet of your picking in your home. I never would've guessed about the crate... just spilling all kinds of secrets in this video. 😂😅

  • @arionrhod6383
    @arionrhod6383 4 года назад +3

    I REALLY need to sort costumes too, but OMG, so much work! I did clean up fabric today, so I guess that's a win. :D Great job!

    • @KirileeCosplay
      @KirileeCosplay  4 года назад +1

      I did my fabric a number of months ago and I've kept it mostly ok.... so now it was time for the closet. I wasn't going to tackle both at once LOL

  • @brianmacdonnacha1
    @brianmacdonnacha1 4 года назад +1

    Hey K,
    I moved apartments in October and consolidated my costumes into storage boxes, in large zip-lock bags. Mine are probably easier to store as they're not poofy dress components... But you might think of storing some costume stuff on the flat / folded to save space. Food for thought.
    PS hi BTW. 😀

    • @KirileeCosplay
      @KirileeCosplay  4 года назад +1

      Thanks Brian- I might look at that in the future

    Ahh the eternal struggle of being a overly sentimental person that think everything will come in handy one day...
    This is way too relatable and I should go clean up some of my stuff 😂

      It's always possible to be more ruthless, but the thing is, memories are awesome. And you got rid of a lot. You did good ^^

    @phyliciagordon2604 4 года назад +2

    I love a good closet cleanout and organization video! I can totally relate to holding on to every little thing. One way I've tried to start handling that for clothing and costumes is if it's sentimental and I won't wear it, I store it with other sentimental stuff instead. It helped me free up SO much space in my closet and dresser :) :)

  • @canucknancy4257
    @canucknancy4257 4 года назад +1

    It's so amazing to get things organize and cull out items that you aren't going to need anymore. Looks amazing. I just did that to my craft room. So much visibility now (can actually put my hands on something that I know I have now). All the bags that went to the thrift store with useful (just not to me) stuff. Well done, you! Hope you're having a wonderful day.

    Hi! Thanks for the advice. It was hard to even find a video I felt comfortable watching! I am a 55 year old man and have wanted to dress up for years but don't feel that confident doing so (and what on earth would be a safe and simple route in?)

    • @KirileeCosplay
      @KirileeCosplay  3 года назад +3

      I sincerely hope that you feel confident soon. There is nothing wrong with wanting to put on different clothes- and that’s all it is. Perhaps it is a mind shift- who are you afraid of? It is innocent to wear something you wouldn’t normally wear

    Suggestion: Garment boxes, each outfit in its own box with a label and maybe a photo? and you can stack them up. Won't work for the poofy ones, but should work for the rest.

      There used to be a tutorial for the cosplay of her up on RUclips, but the videos are gone now.
      The fandom for Rokka no Yuusha is so small and spread out. It's hard to find other fans. I personally cosplay as Hans, the very ratty looking cat boy. He's trash in the best way (for a fictional character).

    Just an idea... you have dead space between your closet and your storage unit, if you own the house, you could increase your closet size by a few square feet, by making an L shape closet.
