Ah yes, in typical Kira fashion, ✨️sewing very cute fantastical and whimsy lookin' clothes!!!✨️Also, I adore the little animated character at the begining with the skirt movement! ❤️

[@tikaepixwhom666]

Same! I wanna do an animation like that now 👀

[@ghostf1903]

Agreed! It looks so cute.

[@Rachel.oct03]

IMAGINE this at a ren fair with elf ears and hair stone trinkets and a bouquet of flowers and bread in a little wicker basket!?!?! 😭😭

[@PricklyAlpaca]

Yesss I gotta do this 🥺

[@Reiiven]

I want to wear this to a ren fair with elf ears (…and hair stone trinkets and a bouquet of flowers and bread in a little basket) but for some reason I also want to wear it to school lol

[@aceofhearts4048]

Seeing Kira watch Rachel Maksy too and have easter eggs from her channel in her videos is so fun :) we love Rachel here

[@PricklyAlpaca]

We stan Rachel on this channel 🙏

[@3thatonegirl]

I was wondering if anyone else noticed that too! Rachel Maksy vibes for sure!

[@ladyunknown101]

To make acrylic less crusty, do 3 parts acrylic paint to 1 part fabric softener when mixing. Than low heat iron (once its dry)

[@DessahLS]

I like that you show that you procrastinate just because freaking out because I feel better that I'm not the only one like that

[@thatoddchristiangirl]

Each video is more and more like a English fairy garden show

[@syddlinden8966]

this video is just... what sewing is ACTUALLY LIKE. thank you.

[@WildArtistsl]

So pretty gave me cottagecore fairy vibe man

[@DragonTamer200]

Ayo the mushroom skirt was my favorite of those designs, and you did it justice :D

[@s3lf1shsyan1d3]

the skirt and the mushroom makeup look great

[@forestenrory]

i have a burning need to make this now

[@gardenfayari]

I am obsessed with your fashion sense! And you looked like a mushroom themed fairy at the end, the skirt looks super cute❤️💜

[@oliviawhitley4667]

Tip mix fabric softener and acrylic paint together to get really nice fabric paint that isn’t crusty

[@froggiepie]

OOOHHH WOWOWOWOWOW IT LOOKS AMZAING

[@jakubmakalowski6428]

Access to an air brush would have probably made this work a lot smoother. My first thought was also bleach though.

[@izoraiza7169]

I had an idea to buy a cheap doll maybe a Barbie and use the circles you cut in the center of the circle skirts to make them clothes if you can. It's a good way to use leftover fabric (mainly smaller pieces) and you can sell the clothes to people who have dolls or have kids with dolls. All you need is one cheap doll to use as a size reference. I'd prefer one without moulded plastic clothes you can't remove for a better fit on most dolls. if you need a dress form you can buy doll ones online for specific types of dolls. I make doll clothes and seeing the smaller circle you cut out reminded me that you can make another skirt or dress for a doll with the center circle piece you cut out if you want to. Also watching videos like this gives me inspiration and ideas for creating more clothes for my Monster High dolls and other dolls I own. With dolls I don't measure. I pretty much use a doll not in the best condition as a dress form in some way to check the sizing of the outfit as I go. I don't sew anything while it's on the doll unless it needs to be a tighter fit and can be removed after putting it on the doll. I even make clothes for my My Little Pony as well. it's a fun way to add to my collection and I once made an entire outfit for a Moana doll inspired by the Disney movie just because the doll was missing everything it came with and needed to be fixed up. I even took the time to make the necklace from the movie for the doll as well. I love getting old dolls that need a really good fix and fixing them while also making things they no longer have anymore.

[@sam6170]

IT LOOKS SO PRETTY!!

[@ann.addiction_to_books]

please make more of the things you’ve drawn, like the mushrooms, household plants, and moths as humans because they always turn out so good! i would love to see the rosy maple moth costume!

[@kleyos]

I just know you didn't change the title when it was a perfect Sokka quote-

[@KeildaRedInk]

Excuse me , if it isn’t made yet, could you make a video on how you plan and script a video? Your commentary is something that I enjoy And your humor is always on point. If you don’t mind, as a beginner art KZbinr , your my inspiration to continue drawing. I hope this doesn’t come off as cringy. thanks for such amazing content! 💕

[@londonarabelle5080]

yesss very unique, I love the result 🍄

[@ViolentOrchid]

Hi, can I suggest spungy brushes and/or paint rollers for painting next time.

[@flamebloom4659]

Thanks to you I just finished sewing a corset top! Definitely looking forward to getting inspiration from this video too. Your style is perfect in every way.

[@flatpigeon9349]

These jokes are amazing

[@BlackCatNiku4]

11:13 I know I’m over a year late seeing this video, but I recognize where that cosplay picture was taken. I go to that convention almost every year. Or at least try to. Also, I really love your videos.

[@froggy3203]

WHEHSHWHWH I WANT THIS SO BADDDD

[@bonsaiRocket]

i'm watching this to procrastinate on my own art project so i really identify with the vibes of this video ^^'' love how the skirt came out!! the ombre is very impressive, i had to attempt an acrylic gradient for my mothman costume and struggled mightily. heavily wetting the fabric before putting down the paint at the "edges" of the ombre helps a bit if you ever try something similar!

[@ozziew1z743]

I just found this channel and I think I’m getting 18th century Victorian chaotic trolls from frozen kinda vibes

[@insomni-zombi4492]

love the skirt. I want one. XD

[@carlcabrera5692]

Your editing gives your videos such charm its really awesome, immediately had to subscribe for that alone. But your personality and creativity is also very charming! Charm master, like a shroom or a froggie

[@downrighthorizontal9931]

u can do a burn test on a scrap of fabric to better tell what its made from! it could be a blend but generally: polyester melts, cotton catches fire and smells like burned paper

[@emmybellbell]

It’s sooooo cute!!!!

[@Vandoe666]

your editing has me in stitches EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. Stay goblin my friend xDD

[@jessicat5317]

Where did you get your undershirt that's like exactly what I've been looking for.

[@Bokatisha1234]

Watching you sew that waistband without any kind of glasses or safety goggles, AS YOU SAID "I pray to not break a needle" was the most stressful moment of this month for me.

[@PricklyAlpaca]

I've broken needles before and there usually isn't any debris.... usually

[@ethanleon3196]

Strawberry clothes pls they the best

[@poeticinjuicetice]

Twa's indeed whimsical

[@radioqueen1236]

I love your shirt in the intro, where’d you get it?

[@tired_squirb]

you're such a cute bean

[@r0ck_salt703]

im also most focused when watching spiderman 2

Become a pile of leaves by making a leaf skirt next 🤔

Side note: but this is the medieval fantasy equivalent of that one artist girl from kiki's delivery service that lives in that cabin the woods. No I will not elabrate.

[@owllady2954]

💜💜💜💜💜

[@anextremelyattractivepieceofgr]

AAAAAAAAA I LOVE IT!!!!! I'd love to see you make something frog themed, perhaps :)))

[@Junipershroom]

Is there a pattern?

[@queenkobra805]

hair dye = tie dye got it

[@queenkobra805]

bruh I'm like halfway through the video and I'm like: STFU THAT IS SO CUTE I WANT IT

[@kiwi_lord_ii1147]

Loving how the reveal was almost slightly eery and creepy as well and magical

[@toldyouthatichangedit]

1 hour early!

[@thelittlemanian3027]

for the future Combining acrylic paint and fabric softener will make the acrylics more bendable and even washing machine resistant (if washed on lower temps) it's a great way to try out painting on fabric and can help if you don't have the colors you want also I adore the final result and hope to see more art/crafts of you in the future You make stunning art and I love watching you so thank you for sharing your creations with us

[@cylyte2436]

Thanks for the tip!

[@LadyDragonbane]

That's an interesting tip! Would it be used in place of or in addition to fabric medium?

[@thelittlemanian3027]

@@LadyDragonbane in place of it's a tip for people who don't want to spend too much money on something they might not do again Fabric softener is a lot easier to use up than fabric medium

[@LadyDragonbane]

@@thelittlemanian3027 Thanks!

[@asanyr9902]

WHAT THIS IS SO CUTE i’d love to see you make those iridescent wire and cellophane wings!! You can have a whole fairy ensemble!!

[@clairebear9886]

THIS WAS SO CUTE! Another mushroom centered costume idea could be making one of those giant mushroom hats that are all over pinterest, it could even match with the skirt really well

[@carlygreen8605]

Hear me out.... items that look like they were made from massive leaves. Like, you're a tiny person who just made a lil' backpack out of a leaf. Or a leaf bandana. Leaf poncho. Something something leaves.

[@_TheMousies_]

Leaf dress!

[@PricklyAlpaca]

What other ✨fantasy nonsense clothes ✨should I made? Thanks to Skillshare for sponsoring this video! The first 1,000 people to use the link will get a 1 month free trial of Skillshare: skl.sh/pricklyalpaca08221

[@gamer242mooo]

Two idea 1. Soup dress 2. You know those stereotype story of “I played a tree at a school play” why not not make a actual tree inspired outfit

[@fredy8681]

ooh a moth shawl would be cute, but I gotta admit, I'm dying to see the strawberry dress but in constellation form

[@_TheMousies_]

Could you do something butterfly-flower themed? My grandma used to give me butterfly and flower clips and now I like butterflies and flowers :)

[@WSchmidt09]

I love love love your art videos, but it's also such a joy to see you craft things. They're very relaxing and, as a non-crafty person, you might as well be performing actual magic.

[@abanana_5527]

The mushroom skirt looks really cute!

[@soyiskool7680]

I love your outfit today with the muchroom makeup! very pretty! Also i canot wait for your spooky season/ hallaween videos to come out since halloween is my legit FAVOURITE HOLIDAY

[@thesaviourfromheavensunwuk9639]

Ok I love the design of the mushroom skirt it's brilliant

[@hootsiferclawthorne8708]

Once again, Kira has made an article of clothing that I need in my life.

[@fredy8681]

ok BUT YOU'RE HAIR IS SO CUTE WHEN ITS EXTRA FLOOFy, and all my mushroom dreams have been fulfilled my heart is satisfied.

[@naijdabroughton4775]

Pls do a ink cap mushroom hat pls 🥺🥺

[@isidorapasic3549]

The mushroom skirt is brilliant cute and elegant

[@reneenoriega4524]

my dream is to learn how to sew just to make clothes this INCREDIBLE PRETTY AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH ❤️🍄❤️🍄❤️🍄❤️🍄

[@blackthornwhitethorn6679]

I know this video is a year old lol but if you ever face the same issues with a similar skirt idea in the future, you should try diluting the paint you use for the ombré effect, in water, and soaking the part of the fabric you want to paint in water, and try wet on wet painting, like with watercolor, which would give you a naturally blended ombré. It works best with dyes but you can accomplish this with watered down paint too (watered down to a few diffeeent consistencies so you can mess around with opacity

[@squarrot9355]

you have so much gender (complementary)

[@hellowormwood]

I’m absolutely obsessed with this skirt, it looks fantastic! Honestly kinda wanna make one for myself lol

[@BrenGamerYT]

Why r u so cool? I have zero interest in sewing or anything but you talking about it and seeing the process is really fascinating.

[@crowned_crow493]

I know I'm 2hrs late and I haven't seen the video yet but KIRA. I HAVE THE EXACT SAME SPIDERMAN POSTER. 2:35

[@saturn910]

ohmygod ur living my mushroom fairy DREAMS rn😍😍😍

[@tavioka_pudding]

So as a cosplayer- for fabric ombres those white triangle makeup sponges work way better than brushes for paint ombres. They don't leave streaks and are meant for blending. You can bleach polyester but you need chlorine bleach rather than cleaner. Matte Fabric paints can be diluted with a few drops water and applied to fabric with a sponge to get a semi glitter/wet metallic effect. To seal for shedding, you can apply the fabric medium on top. And when in doubt- synthetic & natural fabrics can be dyed with their respective dye types; getting a whole bunch of white fabric and dyeing for something like this will take less time. I recently found your channel and I love your stuff but I have done every mistake you did here and I'm like "oh no" Also heads up, there is fabric medium liquid that you can apply on top of acrylic that seals in the laundry- it costs a bit more but it'll save your life if you don't want to spend the time building up the extra color with fabric softener & then having to do future touch ups when it will fade in the future. The skirt is so gorgeous though- good luck with the whimsy and fantasy designs. The process is always a struggle

[@chromakeyskies4997]

I rewatch that design video every few weeks for inspiration and have been WAITING for this

[@lucytheplushunicorn8341]

That's so cuteeeeeee i want it but don't want to make ittttt

[@5re0r]

can someone... anyone.. tell me what the song playing on the reveal was-

The mushroom skirt is very cool :) I wanna learn how to sew and make clothes so I can make strawberry shortcake cosplays and maybe I'll even learn how to make swords out of cardboard :0

ohmygod this entire video is just so fun :))) also right after the joke pizza hut ad at the end of this video i got a real pizza hut stuffed crust ad and it caught me so unbelievably off guard. maybe pizza hut is trying to tell me something......

[@petloverspy]

THE LACK OF LITTLE TABS, YES! How the hell are you supposed to open anything these days without making a mess?

[@cosmicdragonarts]

What if you had white fabric and then used dye to make the ombre effect 🤔 also I'm sure there's a way to prevent the dye from going on certain spots but if there isn't you can do what you did with the spots.

[@rachealgetscreative]

Circle skirts - ample mobility for kicking your enemies. Yes! Now, I'm imagining ninja girls in 1950s poodle skirts.

[@rexandmothattempt4837]

I love when you make these clothing videos! I have been wanting to get into sewing and these videos have given me inspiration. Also question, what are your pronouns?

[@citrusmoth1103]

I believe their pronouns are she/her? I’m not completely sure though, so don’t quote me on that

[@PricklyAlpaca]

Awee I'm glad you like them! And yes my pronouns are she/her 💕

[@EmmaJohnsonShenanigans]

I can’t believe they’ve interacted with the comments so much somehow Like how do you read 200 comments with a response to each one

[@PricklyAlpaca]

I'm in the KZbin Studio app too much lol

[@EmmaJohnsonShenanigans]

@@PricklyAlpaca understandable, but at a certain point youtube studios just stops telling me that i have new comments it’s annoying
