- Crafty Projects are a huge part of who I am! Have always loved the idea of creating something from nothing! I think that's why I loved the unconventional challenges on Project Runway! There is a giant Bougainvillea bush in my backyard, and after years of walking past the fallen petals, I decided today is THE DAY to use them!! This project took about 12 hours got complete, and as tedious as it was, I REALLLLLY love the outcome!

Have you done a dress using yarn?
You have a very pretty voice
Me enamoré del video
Can you do tutorials for those who want to get into dress and clothe making.
You should make a dress out of father's
I can totally see this dress on a Barbie movie and I literally appreciate you’re creativity ✨💗
Same but I figuratively appreciate his creativity
I second this. The dress SHINES and looks absolutely surreal
Ikr it reminds me of mariposa
We have the same pfp I literally just changed it to butterflies 🤩

Hey, I want to let you know that my son is 8 and has always wanted to wear my clothes and unfortunately there was someone negative that told him that he's a boy and can't wear girl clothing. I was scrolling through stories with him next to me and a video of yours came on and you made a dress then wore it, my son seriously gained back his confidence after seeing you and now loves you so much and so do I because you have inspired him to be himself and thank you so much 💓
I think it's great to get boys into sewing. It's like art, very creative n fun. Also great to break the patriarchal gender rules. If it's ok n accepting for girls to wear trousers then a boy shud be able to wear a skirt. There is nothing wrong with that. If he likes sewing then that's fantastic. Ignore the trolls they demons minions sent to make ppl miserable.
@@ASMR-XI-ZUI Why does everyone act like men don’t dominate the fashion world?
Gunnar~ please PLEASE don't sell out too much. I can't imagine you being bought, you're pure, an artist, a hunter of thee bargains, a repurposer, a wonderful human. Be that. A good human that helps those who need it, be a lil more jazzY snazzy
That's great!
This is genuinely so sweet, thank you for sharing ❤️❤️
Your hands work magic. Like I said before, you can make a BEAUTIFUL dress out of ANYTHING. You are AMAZING. Greetings from Chile.
This was BREATHTAKING, the juxtaposition of elegance and whimsy was everything
😫👌
Oh my gosh I love this dress this is the prettiest dress that you’ve ever made
no its not
There are other great dresses but yeah this one is fantastic. I especially love the neckline and I love circle skirts in general it’s just gorgeous.
I can honestly say that I NEVER get tired of Gunnar saying "flat and beautiful." Even when I am sewing and use an iron I say "press it flat and beautiful" out loud.
😅 I do that too... And my dad be like
What kind of child did i raised🤦🤦
🤣
I love that too, right?
Yass gurl! press it flat and beautiful!
same.
I love it ❤
My 7year old son loves your videos, and I love them too! Thank you so much for for what you do! Thank you for showing us that it’s out working with the elements you have. 🥰
You are one of the most creative people I have ever watched! What’s so amazing is that all of your creations turn out beautifully. So, yeah, creativity and skill. Also, I’m a 75 yo grandmother and your videos just give my mood an upswing you silly boy😆I love your positive attitude.
I absolutely love bougainvillea and this dress is just perfection, love ombre effect! PS: you could also try floral pounding next so that the dress is wearable too.
This could be super interesting!
I’ve never seen this, before, but holy foolishness, how amazing it looks! Thanks for the knowledge!
@@GunnarDeatherage I’d LOVE to see you use this technique!
I'm not acquainted with dressmaking and sewing techniques, but I _am_ interested. Could you explain to me what floral pounding is? :)
@@rigtjeh @ScaRlet - Rigtje Hommes It's dyeing fabric or paper with natural flowers and leaves by hammering, check videos from Dior and Sheri vegas on YT for more. The results are amazing!!
Gunnar always with the bold concepts and tireless execution
This is so beautiful! I wish it was wearable, I'd totally wear it all the time
Every dress Gunnar make is a masterpiece
A ✨MASTERPIECE ✨😌
“You just gotta burn yourself sometimes, it’s part of the experience”
As someone who is frantically working on finishing her wedding dress with only a week to go before the wedding, I felt this 😂 Send good vibes my way, this is my first real attempt at sewing apparel and my first attempt at using patterns!!
Sending so many good vibes
😭 Thank you omg
My mom, aunt and me, made my wedding dress in 1974. Champagne colored, crepe and organza and lace. Covered buttons, sweetheart neckline and very french looking puffy sleeves...sweet dress!
@@patriciahazeltine9986 That sounds lovely!
@WildAWalker you can do it! Don’t stress yourself too much! It makes it more difficult if you have any problem for you to think your way through it. Sending you good vibes and serenity! Oh, and congratulations!
Hi Gunnar! This dress is Gorgeous with a capital G! Here’s a crafty hack I thought of while I was watching you make this: first, get some spray polyurethane from the hardware store. Next, after you’ve attached the flowers to the bodice and skirt and steamed them, allow them to dry from the steam. Lastly, spray the flowers lightly with the polyurethane and allow to dry. The flowers will be slightly stiffened and protected, and set how you’ve placed them on the dress.
I’m a crafter who’s learning to sew & you’re my fav teacher! ❤️🧡💛💚💙
Nice hint, how long do you think it will conserve the flowers? I thought about hairspray, that I already used to conserv/ keep Roses together when dried downwards.
OH. MY. GOODNESS! I have got to be one of your biggest fans in my heart. I just can’t believe you aren’t already a household name and have millions of subscribers. Your skill level and talent are off the charts and your creations are works of ART. I have bougainvilleas (this exact color!) in our front and back yard here in Florida. Now I will think of this dress when I see them!
Most beautiful piece of art, I love how you used what you had and found in the most awe-inspiring way
Awesome! I can see this in a Disney movie where the petals come off the ground and float into place as a dress. 👗
Absolutely gorgeous! You could do this with silk petals and it would sell quickly. Amazing. Thank you for sharing, love your channel.
You should do one made out of book pages!! That would be so cool and insanely interesting to see what kind of cut and style you’d design to go with the paper!
I've only ever seen about three(?) seasons of project runway and after your season, my sister and I were blown away and it makes me SO happy to see you doing more stuff and just..being in my life❤ lol
Now, these flower dresses!!!😍😍😍😍 My heart is so happy when I see your work. This was a GREAT idea 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽 beautiful
That dress is so so so incredibly gorgeous!!! It’s my favourite so far. You are a master designer!!!
Feed store dress!
Only use products that are LIVESTOCK related!
Leather, feed sacks, halters, bridles, lead ropes, etc.
Some really cool blanket fabrics too
Absolutely!! That’d be so cool! Probably my favorite suggestion on here
Horse girls say YES to this Dress!
You and your community have such a wonderful energy and it shows in everything you make. It feels like warmth.
Without a doubt this is my favorite video I've seen of you yet!!! 💜💜 You have a great sense of humor also! God made you so perfectly Gunner, I'm sure you have your "little thangs"... And of course we want to see some of them too, lol!! My only regret is that I did not know about you sooner I am not one to watch a lot of TV and especially not all these little pop-up shows that last a season or three and are gone-I should have found you a long time ago 🥂 Keep shining, Love 💕💜☮️
Just Wow! I teach sewing at Joanns and I just Love your creative designs! This is so beautiful! I am constantly amazed at the patience you exhibit with some of these creations You truly are are an inspiration to many of us! Great job!
Hey there, thanks for teaching sewing classes! For many like me, that beginning sewing class was my first adulting pushing myself to try to learn something and gain confidence in myself.
@@camouflagejumpsuit thank you so much! Those are the best words a teacher can hear❤️
@@teresawright5654 😁
I also love this dress and have collected many of these flowers! I love pressing different flowers and some come out feeling like silk!! YOU ARE SO CREATIVE AND PATIENT AND A TRUE ARTIST!!!! I LOVE YOUR DEDICATION TO YOUR IDEAS AND CLOTHING!!! I WISH I WAS A DRESS MAKER !!! I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!!!!! NEVER STOP BEING YOU !!!!!
Not sure if he’s done this before or not, and it would probably be insanely tedious but it would be cool/interesting to see a dress made out of confetti (especially metallic colors)
I mean... sequins? You can buy dresses made of sequins in any store...
@@jendubay3782 Every dress I’ve seen that has sequins the sequins are attached to fabric. It would be interesting (not sure if it’s at all possible) to have a dress solely made out of sequins with no fabric
@@katieb9428 that would almost be like chain mail, if you linked the sequins like that. But probably very very fragile and definitely extremely time consuming.
@@francookie9353 Yeah it would be very fragile. It’s an interesting concept though at least in my mind
@@katieb9428 it would hurt. That's because you always put lining in any corsage. You don't want sequins, that can move, near your blank n***les or your armpits.
if i ever get famous i’m hiring you to make my red carpet dresses HANDS DOWN
This is absolutely gorgeous! You’re so talented! I used to draw dresses as a little girl and this totally reminds me of one I drew! Colors and all 😍
Gunnar, you are a genius! You inspire us all..thank you. Have a great week ahead! See you next time!
I found you off of the shorts on RUclips, and I’ve been OBSESSED!!!! I’m so so so happy I get to see a full long video, I LOVE YOUR WORK🥺🥰😘🌈♥️
I have to say, your mind works well with your eyes. Some of your creations are runway specials and should be seen in that way. 💜
This flower dress is absolutely gorgeous!!! I fully enjoyed watching this video it was so fun!
Gunner this dress is absolutely stunning! I love it it turned out so well. And the flower petals may dry in the way that rose petals do which means the dress will still be there months and months from now, they may just darken in color a bit but it's probably going to look even better. I laughed so hard when you said that you'll spend I don't know how many hours on the Tube or Instagram etc and before you know it at 7:00 p.m. lol I do the same thing I feel so unproductive sometimes because of it, It's becoming a bad habit lol
this has no business being so beautiful and iconic!! it would genuinely be at home in an art museum...stunning 👏🏻
The whole time I watched this, I just kept gasping and going, “omgggg cuuuuute.” This is perfection.
Definitely my favorite dress ever 😍 absolutely brilliantly executed, it BREATHES LIFE baby 🤩 classy and unique !! More power to ya!
Oh my god I need to make this with fabric petals 😍
2 days ago????
@@s1mp259 patreon
Omg yesssss we want
Ooh if you do upload it! I would watch
I searched for this request
When I need to be inspired or just to see something beautiful, I watch your videos. Absolutely stunning!!!
OMGosh! I would totally wear it! Who else feels the same? It's FREAKIN AWESOME ! Thank you it's beautiful ! I love love love it!!!! 😍✌🐩
This Is the most stunning dress I have ever seen in my life.
I giggled at the part about the blistered fingers. I had the same issues when I made utensil holders for my parents 50th wedding anniversary party happening this July (2021). I made them out of burlap. I found a great tip. I used a rubber/plastic thimble. Lol. No more blisters. I made 200 of them.
BTW, OMG. It’s AMAZING. I absolutely think this is my favorite dress yet made by you.
Gunner, you blow me away with this beautiful beautiful dress! Thank you 🙏 so very much for sharing this with us 💕💗💕💗💕
Please make a dress like this in a wearable format! The ombre is sooooooooo cute! And could you do a mermaid one, purple, blue, and green of different oceanic shades, in this style?
I don't know anything about sewing but hearing you talk is so relaxing I could listen to you all day I love love when you say flat and beautiful 💓
Did you see the big flower fight on Netflix? It’s a UK based show. If you can’t see it, you can set your vpn to the Netherlands if you have one. I’m excited to see what you create :) still watching!
I did! My friend Sarah was on it!
@@GunnarDeatherage ooh I did not know!! But your gown is beautiful and looks totally wearable! Maybe, if you like to, you can create a little series where you discuss the fashion in the hunger games for each movie? I’d love to see that :D
@Daphne is The Big Flower Fight the name? Cuz I'm interested en ik woon in Nederland dus dat komt dan mooi uit want dan moet het dus kunnen :p
@@rigtjeh Jaa! Dat is de naam. Ik heb even gecheckt en het staat er nog op. Het is echt super entertaining dus ik ga het misschien over een tijd nog eens kijken. Ik durf niet te googelen of er een tweede seizoen komt want meestal als ik dat doe, gebeurt dat niet xD #supersticious
This is the prettiest dress I've ever seen!!! If I hadn't watched the whole video and known that the dress was made of Flowers 🌺🌺🌺, I would never have guessed. And I so admire your determination and patience....2000 years later, damn I could feel the tediousness...
I could see someone wearing that to homecoming or the prom. Totally Gorgeous.
Its sooooo beautiful. I wish they did this for weddings. Even tho the flowers would decay. Its like a magnificient dress for that special day.
Gunner, if you want to come to my house on the Potomac, you can stay in our guest room, use any fabric and craft supplies I have (I'm big with beach glass and driftwood), use my tools including my vintage Bernina machine (recently refurbished), and I will feed you, entertain you and be your assistant if you are ever in the DC area! I will even find you a Surger if you need. You can do your reveal on the Potomac River in my backyard!
I would love one made of lavender for my wedding reception 🥰
Gunnar, That dress came out Beautifully! Love It!
The editing in this made me laugh so hard. So happy you're including some long form content
I absolutely LOVE this dress!!! Couldn’t you make it wearable with silk petals instead of real ones? 🤔 You’re so talented and I love your channel.
You are amazing! Talent oozing out of you like crazy! I am a grandmother. I wish you were my grandson too. So proud of you! Keep going! Amazing!
Your talent is out of this world! Loved watching this video. All those long hours definitely paid off. 👏🏽👏🏼👏🏿👏🏻👏🏾
The fact that you named your cat Romy Michele makes me love you even more than I already do.
She's definitely the Mary of the cat world.
Beautiful dress.
A video more than 35 seconds long!!! I'm SQUEALING WITH JOY!!! oh, this is so much fun!!!
Truly beautiful,a piece like that should be with fabric flowers to last forever. What a beautiful romantic dress.
Love the way the light plays with the colors of the flowers! Awesome job! Very impressive!
Could you do Harry Potter houses as dress?!
this dress is phenomenal. Can you please make a dress inspired by fruits?
Honestly, this dress is sooo pretty! Great job! I love the scenery in which you shot it. Perfect.
Oh wow, this dress is beautiful. You have a such a talent for creating these gorgeous clothes. ❤😊
I'd love if you can create "the dress" from FRIENDS! You know the green dress that Rachel wears? It's an oldie but goldie 😍
Such a shame this is unwearable, i would totally wear this dress everywhere🤩🤩
My stars, Gunnar! This is a stunning dress. It really inspires me to look for more creative ways to produce my crafts. Hooks up! Yarn tight! It's on!
Wow. This dress is magical. I wish it would last forever.
I have a suggestion ! An Effie Trinket Challenge, where you recreate your favorite Effie Trinket dresses (costumes).
the effort 😭
Gunner, I love your work. I especially enjoy the "shorts". That is how I found you. Today I just thought I wanted to let you know how you've touched me. It usually starts when you go to one of your favorite bargain fabric stores. AND, as a true artist your canvas starts to speak to through the garments Aniston after, you have settled upon ANOTHER beautiful creation. Part of this whole process that I did not mention but deserves recognition is you. Let me explain. From beginning to end the viewer is drawn in by your smooth, inviting and comforting voice. The voice begins to create the narrative. AND, you, Gunner, take us, the viewers on a journey with, complete with views of your beautiful hands, and sometimes we are lucky enough to see your handsome face and even a body shot occasionally!
I've noticed that there are others out there now. I found out by checking out their videos. sad. You have nothing to worry about.
There is no other Gunner. So, thank you for your work. You are amazing!!!
you are inspiration to all those people who wants to pursue fashion but some how stuck in a wrong job 😓
Can u plsssss make a dress like this out of blue butterflies but kinda more like the recent Cinderella movie rather than the hunger games x
Real ones?
@@Panroles
Nope.
Please don’t.
I would love to see him make a pastel gothic dress 💕😍😈
Oh Gunnar, you nailed it with this one! From a former sacred clothing designer (I had a sewing machine and serger I took to sacred locations and helped various holy men and women who were putting on large ceremonies ) I also had to come up with ideas inspired from nature. I can appreciate more than most of your followers exactly what it's like to stay up late or get up super early to finish an unconventional piece. You and I would have a blast comparing notes. Anyway, I DO have a design challenge for you . As a person who uses a wheelchair to get from point A to point B, I"m constantly looking for garments that one can put on quickly and easily. When you are wheelchair bound getting dressed is more complicated due to balance and strength issues. I'm lucky that I can stand for a minute or maybe two. I'm looking for something that's pretty around the neck and accommodating for a plus sized 63 year old super creative woman awaiting surgery that hopefully will allow me to walk again.My chair is not motorized and so stretchy fabrics work for the torso that has to move easily as I have to use my arms and upper body strength to wheel myself around. - Su
This would be great for as flower girls dress in a wedding!:) Beautiful work! As always!
what the- i swear i blinked and he had 330k subs! it feels like just yesterday he had 20k. congrats man!
I feel equally as shocked hahaha
Happy pride month 🏳️🌈🌈🙂
Happy Pride back to all!!
Thank you and same to you all😊
Who had a smile when u saw his cat,and yes this dress is beautiful,good luck dear
I wanna wear it so bad 😭😭. You’re so talented it’s beautiful
Make a dress and design it like it's from ancient egypt!
This dress is absolutely gorgeous! 🥰🌸😍
I love this dress. You make me smile and laugh, thank you so much for being you and sharing you & your beautiful creations with all of us.
So pretty. It’s like a fairy dress since it’s made of real petals 😍😍😍
He is such an inspiration to me, I really hope I could be like him one day
Gorgeous dress as ever. Superb job burnt fingers and all. Bougainvillea’s are so lovely. The wide array of colors this plant grows are always so vivid. BTW…I’m in agreement with you regarding Daniel on PR. Not only is he divine but the dress he made, that you referenced, was unforgettable.
I personally, LOVED your wrapping paper dress from Home Goods! It was SO amazing!!
No words honestly,I can't believe this masterpiece exists🥺💖💫
I use flat and beautiful when I'm flat ironing at the salon. This dress reminds me of McQueens feather work on his creations. Always a treat to see Gunnar, and a cutie-patootie to boot.
Most beautiful dress ever seen.
Your work is so excellent and beautiful.
Sewing is the scariest chore in the world. Seems we’re 1 wide, Wavey, torture! So, I so admire your art!
Stunning 😍. I can imagine this dress using silk flower petals too.
You are amazing. You outdo yourself with every new outfit you make. Bless you.
I am obsessed with your dresses. All your creativity is amazing and you create some of the most beautiful dresses I've ever seen.
This dress just totally cheered me up!!!!!!!! So beautiful!!!!!😊😊😊😊
Gunnar you are so talented, and so calming to watch. I've sewed in my day, mostly curtains and my three children's Halloween costumes because I just couldn't afford to pay the prices in the store but I just am mesmerized by your talent. If I was ever to win the lottery I would hire you to not only be my stylist, my seamstress, my designer, you would be in charge of every garment I put on my body as well as my husband ❤️❤️❤️💯
Mind blowing. I’m amazed the way dress turned out
This is so Barbie princess or fairy or something, like I can see a beautiful Barbie girl in the forest or palace courtyard and singing while petals flurry around her and magically become a beautiful dress for her :)
You are sooo talented!! You’re the kind of artist that kept me away from going to design school as the competition is fierce!! 💪
WOW that definable looks like a real dress. Colors are beautiful, love your creativity.
