🥀🫀 DIY Gothic/Alt/Punk Valentines (and gift ideas!) 🦇🩸

[@SheepasaurusRex]

hey rattus rattus gang :) hope you all get valentines and palentines this year!

[@RattusRattus]

🥳❤️🥳

[@bubbleblossom333]

i thought that said palestines at first i was like ???

[@SheepasaurusRex]

@@bubbleblossom333 i wish palestine could be happy lbr

[@xxleafxx8215]

literally obsessed with this video- made a little vampire themed one with the quote “i’m a sucker for you” !! sending so much spooky love 🫶🫶🫶

[@JackFountas779]

thats such a cute idea oh my gosh !! 🖤

[@ireallysee]

those remind me of those hearshaped vintage pillows! so nostalgic and if the person knows how to sew it would be so cute

[@RattusRattus]

Omg so true! And if you don’t know how to sew, fabric glue would totally work to decorate a pre made heart shaped pillow -- I love this idea !!! Edit - oh my god and you could make it scented 🤯

[@caylarivera2804]

The pure white one with red splatter paint reminds me so much of MCR's three cheers for sweet revenge. To The End, specifically, very demolition lovers as well. These are such a cute concept, I used to love making home made valentines in elementary school. Making these would definitely make my inner child smile 🦇❤️

[@rowantree1197]

For hot glue you can use a silicone cooking spatula. Silicone does not stick to hot glue and perfectly protects fingers from high temperatures. They come in different sizes and shapes. I prefer a narrow and long one, which pastry chefs use to spread cream on cakes. Thanks for the inspiration! Love and blessings from Russia💝

[@RattusRattus]

This is so clever - thank you for sharing !!!

[@izzyjones7108]

They also had little pink silicone hot glue Finger Protector things at dollar store ..I actually like them because I'm very hands on with making things. I use my fingers more than tools sometimes.

[@izzyjones7108]

❤❤ those spatulas? I found out that they work to blend gel pens also. You have to work very quickly. But if you make a splotch with a gel pen..and quickly swipe with a silicone spatula, it makes a whisp. And do that again with a complementary color. And they blend..it's something I found accidentally and it's kind of cool to get some unusual effects?and I realize that comes way out of left field for This. 😂 sorry.

[@DeityDemon]

"This is unsafe, don't do this" me with every project I get into, you're so real for that 😂😂

[@ellicatcosplay]

THIS IS SO CUTE ! Also laughed when you said “this is unsafe don’t do this” bc I was legit thinking to myself 30 seconds prior, “damn, they’re burning tf outta their fingers doing this” 💀

[@user-rq9uo1pr8j]

I love this. Reminds me of 2012 youtube where so many goth/alt creators were making videos about cute/spooky diy stuff. I miss those days of youtube and am glad you're bringing them back. ❤ Liked and subscribed.

[@Jacquenelle]

Ooh this gives me ideas 💕 You could put a layer of foam just under the fabric on top of the lid of the valentine chocolate box. Then it could be used as a pincushion. And fill the box with spools of thread.

[@RattusRattus]

OMG YOUR MIND 😮❤️❤️❤️❤️🤯 This is SUCH a good idea holy shit I wanna re upholster my whole sewing kit now 😭❤️🥰

[@ernie39]

omg that's such a good idea!!

[@speedwaymethadrine]

those hearts are so cute!! gonna make some for myself since i don't really have anyone in my life ｡⁠◕⁠‿⁠◕⁠｡ halloween is the best day of the year, but valentines day is also great - i may be very hardcore punk but everything heart shaped (especially if it's chocolate..) is my weakness (⁠ ⁠ꈍ⁠ᴗ⁠ꈍ⁠)

[@RattusRattus]

Omg go for it!! It’s so fun!!! And yes I agree - heart shaped things are the best 🖤!

[@SheepasaurusRex]

the ghostly/bloody valentine is definitely giving lucy westenra in the huge white collar

[@RattusRattus]

YESSSSS omg thank you !!!!

[@DeityDemon]

Your ideas are literally revolutionary it opens up my little rat brain to all my scraps I've kept so I can finally give them new life! Ooh I hope I have time to do a project like this before Valentine's!

[@Spooky-Sara]

Oh I am TOTALLY making one of these for my partner. I think I’ll put a couple nugs of weed in the little compartments aha

[@leviathan471]

seeing this video on my reccomendations made me so excited because i have SO MUCH TROUBLE finding gothic or generally alternative youtubers to watch im so glad i could find your channel and also midges these heart shaped box designs are so so cute im def gonna use them as inspiration!

[@tinyaxes]

Omg!! Not even 5 minutes in but I love the boxes of sweet hearts that stores have every year for like 50 cents and I wanna turn the one I got yesterday into a coffin now/head stone/tomb

[@tinyaxes]

15:55 THIS ONE IS MY FAV OMFGG ITS SO PRETTY AND FUN AA

[@Thefashiongoddessnyc]

Oh wow they are all so pretty! My mind is running with so many ideas..need a pastel goth or fairy kei version for myself along with dark spooky vibes! Ur so talented!

[@intoxicatedfather9307]

that bloody one looks so cool! it sucks that my local thrift store doesnt sell fabric and regular fabric stores are kinda expensive, would love to do one of these in the future tho. i’d have to order the charms online but it will be work it for next valentines!

[@RattusRattus]

That does suck!! Sometimes when I can’t find proper fabric swaths in the thrift store I’ll look into the lacy curtains/satiny bed sheets/ other interesting patterned things that can be found in the bedding section! I’ve also de constructed my fair share of old/thrifted lacy shirts and skirts and dresses to harvest the lace for new projects - so if all else fails I’d reccomend that! Anyway I hope if you do make something for next Valloween it goes well 🖤❤️🖤

[@intoxicatedfather9307]

@@RattusRattus thank you for different alternatives! i will definitely look for lace stuff the next time i thrift. and if i end up making one i can tag you on instagram ☺️🖤

[@joesoswag2515]

So grateful for this video. I have a friend who’s birthday is on Valentine’s Day and I’ve been looking for a special way to spoil them this year ❤️

[@RattusRattus]

Yay!!! Happy early bday to your friend :D I hope they like it!!

[@Katie-jc2zr]

This is SO PERFECT for me and my spooky GF!! TY RABBIT ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@RattusRattus]

YESS I was hoping the spooky gays would find this video!! 🥳🖤💕🌈🦇

[@louniey]

Gosh I’m so going to make a gothic purple vampire box where I either store my jewelry or the small trinkets I’ve collected! 🦇💜

[@justadoglovergurl1198]

Ahhh yes morticia and gomez literally my fav of the goth couples 🥀😩

[@christiebecerril8113]

Love the boxes and the gift ideas! I would squeal over something this special!

[@ieatbutterflies7401]

aaw, I love the blouse youre wearing! looks really good ^^

[@RattusRattus]

Thank you!! 🖤 Its an old dyed it and cut night gown!

[@emilierobinson8933]

thanks for including so many photos, it’s so detailed and easy to watch

[@CH3RRY-STARZ87]

Happy Valentines, thank you so so much for this Rabbit!! I’m really glad cause I finally have a partner, and I adore him so so much, and we’re both metalheads, so I’ll try to get him some stuff like that, since he loves certain bands, and i appreciate all the same things he’s into, and when you talked about the black rose thing, I felt that, I adore black roses.

[@vanessaprincesssa]

These boxes are the best thing I’ve seen! 🖤🖤 I love the idea of mixing Valentines with Halloween - because I LOVE spooky season and I’ve always been indifferent towards Valentines day.

[@Salvia_Salvation]

This appeared in my recommended JUST at the right time, I’m so excited to make something inspired by this!! 🖤🖤🖤

[@ernie39]

All of these look so incredible aa, I have some lace and fabric ive been wanting to use up and this is giving me so much inspiration !! fjgjdj i love how you brought up the difference between how Frankenstein's Monster and The Bride interact in the actual movie versus how they're viewed in pop culture, I just watched Bride of Frankenstein recently and was rly surprised (kind of in a pleasant way) how Not romantic any of it was lmao. The Bride didnt get nearly enough screentime but she totally stole the show, her outfit and acting were excellent! Also your doll collection omg !!!

[@Ellempeh]

This is such a cute idea! I can’t decide which design I like the best - probably the Morticia&Gomez one or the 80s-Halloween-Coloured one. But they’re all so cool!!! 🥰 I adore your creativity and these tutorial videos always give me so many ideas ☺️

[@_AdrianaMM]

New to your channel and this video is so inspiring. I’m a mother to a 10YO and she’s exploring her style etc (and she’s leaning scene and goth lol) and I think this will give her some ideas for making her BFFs Valentine’s! Thanks again❤🖤

[@Gleamiarts]

i love these :0 i love the white blood splattered heart 😍 i'm so glad i found your channel!

[@Oonagh72]

Those are all so pretty. If you want stronger hot glue you can use the gorilla brand and there is fabric hot glue that will glue your thoughts together. It is strong.

[@RattusRattus]

Ooh good to know! Thank you :D

[@another_metal_girl]

Me and my partner are not that into valentines day but I really loved how charming and cool is your personality and also loved the style

[@ianbuchanan920]

Love your punk valentine box too. Has the buchanan plaid on it

[@peloidvoid1619]

Lol, I actually made a "punk" ish fabric heart patch for a jacket that reads: "I'm nauseous". These are really cool. Im inspired to make more.

[@RattusRattus]

Love that!!!

[@Abysmal-ji2pu]

yayy another diy craft video! loved seeing these, my favourites were the punk one and the addams couple one. hope you spent a nice valentine's day!

[@kyupiangel90]

Okay, idea: what about non toxic, washable, kid's type paint, for the insides of the box? In latam spanish we call it "témpera", and it is really usefull for this kinda projects in schools for example, where kids bring boxes of any kind, paint them with tempera, and then put gifts for their mom(for mom's day) or dad(family day), and then give it to their parents as cute gifts. Kinder and elementary first grades use it bc it is non toxic so kids can use it safely.

[@leiaanderson8859]

Just came across your channel, but, I have to say, you look so pretty! Handsome? Nice? What ever you prefer, you look lovely! (There you go) I luv these ideas sm! They’re all so cute and clean! And ur style gives me “Nightmare before Christmas” (or any type of those movies) and I luv it!

[@CrowbarJones_]

Honestly when I think about it Frankenstein’s monster and the bride are almost like… siblings…. Like super technically speaking they were both created by Doctor Frankenstein. I’d honestly rather not think about this anymore lol.

[@RattusRattus]

Ahhhh you’re kinda right 🥲😶

[@remremrem4011]

My partner's birthday is 4 d'au After Valentines so i really needed some ideas for their gift! And the zine plus what I have AND the box! I'm sure their going to live it Thanks 🖤✨

[@audreychilders2577]

You should do something for Glenn Murikamis Teen Titans or Grojband

[@girlgotswag2]

I love this so muchhhhhh ❤️🖤 the ribbons, the lace, everything is gorgeous!!

[@kolitiokada9825]

Hey Rattus Rattus! Everyday is Halloween! Would love it if you renamed all of the other holidays, too! Such a fun & creative demo & video! Love your gift ideas! Happy Halloween!
