5 MINUTE CRAFTS YOU ACTUALLY WANT TO TRY

[@nicoledavis6870]

Idk if y’all are looking for feedback (feel free to ignore if you aren’t), but I really missed the personality in this video. The moments where Rachel narrated her steps almost vlog-style were so much more engaging than the top-down diy shots. Just something to consider since I, and much of your audience, come to you for your personalities and energy! Lots of love ❤️

[@TheSorryGirls]

thanks for the kind feedback! we appreciate it 🥰

[@mikaylaclark6354]

I very much agree! This sadly kind of felt like one of those 5 min craft video :(

[@twistedfrannie9311]

Completely agree, there's a reason I don't subscribe to the 5 min craft type channels and it's bc they lack personality. While I enjoyed the content of this video, I didn't enjoy the style of the video.

[@lavenderm]

@@twistedfrannie9311 Totally!!!

[@taytertottt]

Agreeeeeee, but all the items were super cute as usual.

[@alyssaquyn]

I think this format would really excel in short-form video content! However, I found myself tuning out and having to rewatch parts bc it was hard to keep up with in a long format without the engaging personality/voice. Even a voiceover with captions could help with that. Love that y’all are exploring new formats though!

[@CuriouserAndCuriouser4]

Exactly! Right at the start I forgot what she mixed the baking soda in. Elmer’s glue, mod podge, idk. Also the suspense and guessing what we’re making now got me sweating by the trinket bowl. What a ride!

[@marissajohnson297]

Hard agree

[@skylarsa]

Yeah if they broke this down into 10 different short videos, it would be mote entertaining.

[@awatson444]

Hate all these negative comments, I loved the video and how affordable and actually kinda fun these look to make!! Everything you guys put out deserves to be appreciated and not torn down or compared…

[@alyssamanasco9248]

Personally, i think there are enough five minute craft channels out there. We come here for your different styles, personalities, etc. give us the good stuff!!

[@Charlie10266]

Okay.. Unpopular opinion but, I LOVED this. I’m deaf, so I rely visual cues and these videos are the easiest to follow when I’m actually trying to diy the projects. I’m obsessed with the green flower coasters and the trinket dish made from a balloon! 😍😍😍

[@garglerawr]

I really love the sustainability that is at the centre of many of your videos. This kind of make and throw it out 5 minute situation is why I esteem your typical content over all other DIY channels. Still, thanks for the video. Nothing wrong with doing something different once in a while. ❤

[@chelseadoll6269]

The retro flower coasters are adorable, and I could totally see myself making them! But without the usual voiceover explaining what you're doing and why, this video comes off as a cheesy 5 Minutes Crafts video, and not the usual standard we're used to from the Sorry Girls.

[@Zofia2]

Big agree

[@TheSorryGirls]

we tried to give as much explanation as possible without having to explain so that people can understand that don't speak English! but love to hear feedback about video types :)

[@IncLucie]

I almost stopped the video for the same reason 😅

[@gigik6334]

I thought they spoke for themselves, I enjoyed it. The crafts in the 5 Minute videos are cheesy, these were fun.

[@klaaskingma7435]

Definitely agree. I like watching then to see the personalities and actually hear them speak. This music over video is definitely giving 5 minute crafts compilation

[@viivi4196]

I prefer the usual style of your videos, but damn those flower coasters were cute and the tile coasters were totally up my alley too! also rachel saving rochelle's mug was so fun, this video definitely needed some personality like that

[@EmmaAuggie]

I really hate to say it, but the only reason I watched this video all the way through is because I can’t miss a TSG video now. I’ve been with you guys for over 10 years and seen every video 🥰Always good to try something new but this just did not work for me.

[@marissajohnson297]

Totally agree! I love the narration and stories!!

[@safiahhinton529]

Dude legit thought I was on the wrong channel for a sec. It’s been a while but when I get recommended sorry girls I click not realizing there is a third face to sorry girls now. But it was mostly the style of the video that made me think I was in a wrong video

[@susilangdon196]

Completely agree

[@ferni24]

I liked many of the ideas, but i really missed the voiceover on these. I think you could keep the same shots with no audio for shorts, but for longer videos some voice over is really helpful to keep audience interested and also, your personality and comments are what keep us coming to your chanel

[@teddiemocha5884]

I honestly loved this video! All of the DIY’s on this channel are always fantastic but aren’t achievable for me to do in my NYC apartment. While this is something cute and simple that I could totally do in a limited amount of time.

[@jennaalyssa01]

i love the sorry girls and i think the biggest thing that keeps me coming back is the quality, and personality behind the dot’s and general content production. to me, a lot of this felt a little cheesy, tacky, and impersonal. it’s nice to see y’all trying new things, but i just wanted to give my personal feedback!

[@jennazeuq]

There’s a reason I come to this channel and not 5 minute crafts and that is for additional DIY insights and personality. Those were missing here which sucks because I love Rachel!

[@lmtorr22]

i liked the tile coaster idea the best. also, Rachel is very good at tying knots. Wasn't a fan of most of the 'texture' crafts -- they look unfinished.

[@karan_karan_karan]

oop

[@maddieb_99]

same here, i preferred the coasters or the ropes/beads

[@LoDega]

The tiles coasters are awesome. But… be careful if there’s perspiration on your glass. It will stick and then fall.

[@ingeborgroos9415]

i think $7 for a glass tile is already more than you'd pay for any other type of coaster, let alone the cost of the cardboard, glue, gloves and grout. imagining the clean up of the grout i'm already out...

[@brittanyjeanspiers3141]

I love you guys and have been watching since before the first loft but this is giving 5 minute crafts

[@resolecca]

I like some of the ideas, but I'm not into the whole 5 mins craft channels video asthetic though, prefer your normal video style, 5 minute craft videos suck and it's not just because their diys don't work

[@Zofia2]

Big agree

[@angieemm]

I like the sort of parody of 5MC, but you made it useful and replicable! There's something about a squishy balloon filled with plaster that really makes me want to do that one first! I prefer the voice overs, but I still liked this too.

[@amCoodlah]

I can't tell what parts of this are supposed to be jokes/parody, lol. A lot of it's not my style, but I do find a few things super cute, so obv the DIYs themselves are meant to be legitimately helpful and re-creatable. But then there's also multiple places where there appears to be blood on Rachael's hands and the shoe prints in the advert looked bloody as well. 😬 I'm not one to get nauseous at the sight of blood, but what a strange choice to include in the vid! 😂

[@maddieb_99]

​@@amCoodlah i'm glad i'm not the only one who noticed the apparent blood (hoping it was just paint from another diy she was filming....)

[@vintagecameragirl]

Would love for you guys to start to evolve what you consider aesthetic. Meaning doing something in other styles then just modern minimalism. Cottage core for instance.

[@sarahgoddard1213]

That would be very welcome.

[@iheartmusic41]

totally agree, i'm over the sad beige decor

[@tinar8828]

Agree. I would love to see some things that are more victorian, chinoiserie, "grandmillenial"

[@elenabjxrn]

I agree! I love the creativity that goes into these, and some of them can spark off ideas that are more my style, but I'd LOVE to see a series on DIYs for different home decor aesthetics.

[@vintagecameragirl]

@Morgan Bloom I just don't see the point in wasting a giant piece of clay to hold 1 dried Reed. The good thing about cottage core and dark achediema is that a lot is just thrifted and reused, painted etc. So more sustainable then what ever these diys were

[@iheartmusic41]

i love the simplicity of the crafting, but i would love to see you expand beyond modern minimalism. different colours schemes or more intricate shapes would be very interesting to see!

[@a000c]

yeah like enough with that pinterest stuff

[@danyellerobinson5940]

Most of the items can be painted whatever color tickles your fancy...

[@iheartmusic41]

@@danyellerobinson5940 I know, but sometimes people need a little more direction. And it would be a bit more interesting to watch if everything weren't beige and kind of a weird oblong shape

[@danyellerobinson5940]

@@iheartmusic41 ... there is value in leaving room to add your own personalized touches. I would have rolled the strap vase between two rulers to assure uniform thickness and cut the edges for a sleeker design. I might also use a bigger bowl to keep the shape on the lamp... but that's me.

[@iheartmusic41]

@@danyellerobinson5940 okay but again, you'd be surprised at how many people need their hands held when it comes to things like colour choices. And honestly it would just be more pleasant to watch. With every craft I found myself going "yup, another beige thing..."

[@nikkiriver9604]

I see a bunch of comments that aren't really feeling this style of video, Which is fair and valid. I did, however, really enjoy this video and the style! It was a change from the typical vlog style you all normally do, which I love, and this was nice! It was really soothing to watch and I still got some great DIY ideas that are super simple and attainable for me.

[@laflacamorenita]

Happy y’all are trying new formats, but this was not it for me. This is less personable and I’m here for y’all’s personalities more than the actual DIY. I enjoy watching you figure things out, talk through the mistakes you made, show your excitement when something works out, and so forth.

[@juliagoolia72]

I agree with everyone who also misses the personality in this video. I think the market is over saturated with “5 minute crafts” that honestly look like they probably get donated to Goodwill as soon as the video is over. I really miss the fun vibes and the people component that drew me to the channel

[@naomiritchie4080]

Loved loved loved the flower coasters as well as the plaster of paris tray. However, I do agree with others that I love coming to this channel for the personality, but love the different approach to videos. I feel as if this could become a series like the "how-to" series for those who just want some easy DIY crafts for last minute gifts or to fill some time. Definitely missed some of the spunk, but appreciate the experimental approach (:

[@Bexinmo]

Your lampshade is still unsafe, even with LED bulbs. While the bulb itself doesn't get very warm, the base does.

[@heidengames8277]

Love you guys! I normally watch your videos while I clean or cook and I missed hearing the narration of the DIYs!

[@denises9426]

The flower coasters and the dish she put her earrings in were my favs. Great video! 🥰❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@Pinksandwiches]

Love this! Old school sorry girls, not that I don’t LOVE what y’all are doing now but I missed the simple diys we can do without major tools. Love!!

[@Darenim]

I agree!

[@tammyhendrickson-kt2bo]

Everyone learns differently and for those that are visual learners this video is fantastic but as for me I am a audible learner and learn better with someone talking me through it

[@hannahnaples7511]

I think the flower coaster is super cute, but sadly that’s all with the whole inside being empty there isn’t much point in stoping condensation for getting on the area your trying to protect.

[@shzreenashis]

it is relatively harder for me to focus on the video bcs i love your personality in each video that makes it more relaxing to watch bcs i can for now only hope to make all these awesome diy for my house..but to only watch this is not really to my liking..but anw still watch it till the end cause i love you guys!!!!

[@Ziimt]

Sorry, I did not enjoy this video as much as the others. The diys seem a bit uninspired to me and in general it lacks personality and the special ✨ the sorry girls sparkle✨, you guys usually run the extra mile. Thank you for the video still ❤

[@meganvanmilo]

I agree

[@Kathryn_60]

I have to say i too feel like these diys are variations of items we seen from you before. I don’t know if it’s the color palette, the materials, or the design. Rachel is a very good crafter and has a very easy going manner, it has nothing to do with her or her presentation. I just think these crafts look like they are sustainable but they also have a lack of style or worth that would make them easy to discard. I would love to see you make a gift or something that you would keep life long

[@CuriouserAndCuriouser4]

That was fun 5min craft parody and I got few inspirations too. Now the questions: Is the succulent pot stable? Isn’t it too top heavy? Coasters - was the wooden base smaller than the tile? Wall hanging flower thing - do I need to glue in the glass or is the clay sticky enough? Can I use slightly bigger vessel to hold let’s say a small live plant? Clay flower coasters - what if I still have the air dry clay from the previous thing, would it work the same? Clay incense holder doesn’t hold the ashes, maybe it should stay at dry plant holder.

[@winnielou8206]

This is why these videos need voice over or at the very least text on screen to explain.

[@JayofallTrades]

5 minute crafts the right way love Rachel ❤️

[@pennyriley8927]

I agree with most of the feedback it’s too 5 min crafts. I love it when there’s more personality you’re videos. Still love everything you guys do! ❤️

[@ellegilyard1348]

Loved the video. Sometimes, a quite craft video heavy on aesthetics is exactly what I need 😊❤

[@thisisbethm]

I liked the ring dish and flower coaster, but I really hated the “5-minute crafts” music style. If I wanted that, I’d watch 5-minute crafts. I like the spoken instructions where if I have to look away for a second, I still know what’s going on.

[@ChelseaAlyssa7186]

I absolutely LOVE all of these!!!

[@alanax_]

love how the projects turned out, but kinda sad the ad was the most engaging part of the video. really missed the personality

[@alliepopoff325]

The accessibility of these diys was great!

[@katieriegelman1868]

I’m missing the old days! Rachel being quirky and funny! I can watch silent shit anywhere - I want you guys. Kelsey’s last vid was boring- too much talk not enough action. Haven’t watched new girl’s vids- boring. So far Becky is the superstar with hands on, dirty Reno and reuse and fun! Just my IMHO. Still love you all!!! Katie in VT.

[@evlash721]

I feel differently than some other commenters - I really liked the quick pace without voiceovers. It was a new style, and I loved the skit with Rochelle and the flower coasters to get personality in there 😊

[@iMandyHere]

Same!

[@omelette_du_garbage]

Same! I loved just watching along, and the pace was great. It's nice to just see some fun crafts without lots of talking. I'd totally watch more of this.

[@tinamcivor2996]

I was intrigued by the new style of video and enjoyed watching. Totally vibed out while you were making the Tetris coasters! Many say the similarity to 5MC put them off but the big difference was that the diys were not lame or impossible.

[@quokkakola1722]

I appreciate the nod to the 5 minute crafts filming style and I like the projects are realistic and doable

[@helloemilymills]

My favourites were the flower coasters and the balloon bowl! Nice to see some 5 minute crafts that are actually good 😆

[@joha5541]

Love this idea but i think i would have prefer it more in shorts format since a full video video format i miss rachel talking or just more of her personality i guess

[@joha5541]

Cant wait to try these out!

[@resolecca]

Yes it totally would have worked as 10 individual shorts but as a whole video it's not the vibe

[@belennovoa666]

It was different than usual but the format was quite relaxing. Liked that were actually cute and creative diys but was quite self explanatory. Missed the old DIYs video a little since you've been doing mostly room makeovers lately. Thanks Rachel!

[@Cher1296]

idk about the 5 min craft vibes... loses personality.

[@Zofia2]

Big agree

[@michaelahallfilms5450]

Would definitely have preferred voiceovers 🥲 as someone with adhd I definitely cannot focus with just this music and the video 🤪

[@katherinclayton4344]

The balloon 🎈 loved this.

[@bibicheesus800]

This is just my two cents and I'm not sure if you're looking for feedback but imo 5 minutes craft type videos work (or rather rake in the views) because they're being pumped out at an unfathomably fast rythm and the algorithm pushes them. Nobody is really looking for them if that makes sense. If you're not a content mill putting out these vids everyday you have to have some kind of uniqueness because this is what creates the appeal and the incentive to come back, and I'm not sure that cute crafts are enough. I think they lend themselves well to tiktoks bc they're short & easy (the absence of power tools, easy to source materials), either with or without the vloglike voiceover (but we gen z do tend to love a good voiceover lol)

[@LittleDergon]

I like the concept but a lot of these crafts were a swing and a miss for me. Not a fan of the textured white look and some of them (like the seashell bowl) felt kinda tacky to me. I love it most when you guys do a complex project but make it seem so doable because you talk through your whole process

[@calm_expressions]

Lots of neat ideas, but when I first saw the thumbnail, my first instinct was to ignore/scroll away, cause I let thought it was the evil 5 Min Crafts. Soooo, maybe not great for the demographic that you’ve built.

[@Weezieweeks]

Love this video and all the projects. I really loved the simplicity of the flower coasters and the magazine ladder!

[@CoverediCake]

Supercute DIYs. But I do agree with other comments that this little too much 5minute crafts videos.

[@DaniePariCrab00]

I disagree with a lot of these comments and I still loved this video. I feel like sometimes I need a quieter video like this, and sometimes I need a chatty long form video, and that’s why this channel works. I also loved the like magazine ladder and the balloon earring bowl SO MUCH. I also disagree with the comment saying “5-min make it and throw it away content”, if someone is making this to just throw it away then why are they even bothering… that’s on them not on TSG’s!!

[@MysteryLullaby]

Personally I think the old narration style is better than silence…especially for people with low visibility who rely on audible instructions.

[@lizzymorang8048]

Both coasters and the magazine rack were great! I agree with the other comments saying that we love your personalities so much that getting less of that here wasn't as strong as your other videos, but I definitely understand the desire to play around with format occasionally.

[@missygretz2116]

The diys were good and I get the trying to make the shots vibey and aesthetic but I had a hard time keeping attention and watching with no talk through for so long. It felt a bit too "5 min craft" adjacent, and I was relieved by the ad for the vaccuum. I love your guys content just had trouble with the different style of this one.

[@sierradeatley7576]

I thought the process shots with just music was satisfying to watch! I liked the slower pace to this video :))))

[@vickinoeske1154]

Fun and easy DIY's, but I agree with others, miss host's sweet personality.

[@PerfectPinkiePants]

My favorite DIY'S were the flower coasters and jewellery dish!

[@kittiecooper8584]

I know you guys probably just don't know this, but the store-bought shell industry is really terrible and not eco-friendly at all (I know that's a big part of your mission). A disclaimer to only use shells you find in a thrift store, your grandma's attic, etc. might be good on the next shell craft. Lots of info out there if you want to find out more.

[@Hiiiiiiii__jlc]

I love this!! I say keep it up, the things you make are waaaay nicer than the other 5 minute craft/diy! I enjoy all the different types of videos that you make, the long and short! Very inspiring!

There were a couple decent ones (coaster, plaster bowl) but honestly, I thought I was being punked, especially with all of the single cattail (?) diys. I'm a long time, huge TSG fan but I don't think this was my taste. Just my personal opinion, lots of love to the team regardless!

[@mdwrm]

i thought the same thing with the shell bowl. some of these could've been better if they were "elevated" in style sensibilities.

[@AnnieBellet]

@@mdwrm I liked the shell bowl concept, but it was very rough looking at the end. Same with the tile coasters, they were quite messy even in the well-filmed reveal shots. I feel like doing 2 or 3 DIYs and taking time to polish them would have brought this back to the level the Sorry Girls usually give us.

[@OZ01209]

These were cool ideas, but I really hope "5 min crafts" don't start popping up in my social media algorithm. 😂 That succulent planter needs drain holes. I think the coasters and magazine ladder were the coolest. I feel like people kind of missed the point on "5 min crafts." I don't think they were supposed to take literal 5 min each. I think it was called that because they crammed a bunch of cheap crafts into a 5 min video. 😄 Personally, I love how your channel has evolved. I think your audience has evolved with you too. This could have been a mini series of different categories with better quality items, and a more engaging video. • Simple Sculpture art ideas. • Variant Coaster art from different eras/styles. • 3-5 unconventional ways to display magazines. Etc. 🥰

[@boileditwithmymind7373]

I was excited to see simple decor crafts from you (the coasters were super cute!) but I really missed the personality that your videos normally have. I definitely had to shift back from drifting off. Another reason I was excited was because you guys stuff is normally high quality diys, which is what I want if I’m actually going to make something, again the coasters were cute and stuck to that expectation but a lot of the other stuff just..felt cheep and not in the “let’s save money” kind of way I’ve come to love from a lot of the sorry girl content. I appreciated the attempt at a different style and liked the simplicity of the crafts,,I just don’t think it holds up against the rest of your guys amazing builds ❤
