How to braid your t-shirt collar (braided neckline) - Salinabear

[@turbotail2]

If you use a single hole punch for your holes they are small and uniform in size...It's also easier to control placement. You can even get the punches in different sizes. Love the shirts...keep coming with the ideas!

[@SalinaSiu]

Oh no, did you click the link the description box? I updated it recently. Thanks for trying anyway though!

[@sharda07]

How did you start it off! Love this idea!!

[@SalinaSiu]

Thanks! Planning to get back into the swing of making videos.

[@bellei]

Actually, the person I know that chipped her teeth was my Pediatrics attending in New York Presbyterian, and it happened veryvery late at night, but she HAULED her dentist into the clinic even at that time to do the repair job lollll :) will be voting daily :) i haven't stumbled across a lot of other vancouver student youtubers, i think you're the only one i'm subscribed to, and this is my way of thanking you for your helpful vids :)

[@SalinaSiu]

I think they can do that if it's a small chip. Too much of mine broke off :( I had to get a root canal and a crown. I only did one row of holes actually! Yeah sorry the starting is not so clear :( Thread the string into the first hole all the way. Then start doing what I demonstrated with the loops.

[@sandrabacon3445]

In cutting strip for the braid...did you just cut a strip desired width , pull out seam threading to make one long strip (actually the circumference of shirt bottom used). Then making a loop at end of strip, inserting loop into hole. Make another loop with the strip and insert it into the next hole. Take second loop, join together, and continue this process until you reach the last hole. Repeat entire process again using same holes and tying all ends into one knot?

[@SalinaSiu]

Ouch. Yeah, I wanted to go to the dentist ASAP but it was a Saturday night and I couldn't make an appointment right away.

[@SalinaSiu]

I'm surprised to hear how many people have broken their tooth too! And yes! I fell on the floor!

[@idakoosstorevideos]

It is a great idea, the final product looks really nice

[@aislinngraves4291]

very cool neckline. How did you secure the starting side? Good luck in the competition.

[@SalinaSiu]

Sorry lol. Yeah it's hard to try it out beforehand cause I don't want to use two shirts for each video. I'll try to make the videos more organized.

[@randomvlogsandthings]

awww i hope it didn't hurt too much. does it feel better yet? how did you get an extra row with the same line of holes? :)

[@da0utkasted0ne]

Can you do this video again? I don't know how to start it.

[@randomvlogsandthings]

i think they can fill in teeth these days with this whitish stuff? my mom chipped her tooth and they just molded this stuff onto it and it looks fine now. maybe you could get it fixed? or did you already? i LOVE the braid but i actually can't completely follow how you got it started and how you finished with a second row. you did two sets of holes and did the same loopy thingy? did you put the holes right next to the other holes you had made for the first row? or maybe between?? thanks so much!

[@Enjoymytreasures]

I love what you do and your so positive and you do an excellent JOB!!! KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!!

[@askaaronlee]

you're BACK!!!

[@Linda-mp8co]

Hope you won your contest. You've got such great ideas and designs.

[@blahblahblah007ish]

@CrayolaaLover it doesn't work well with an off the shoulder top just because it looks off... However I did just do it with a shirt which I cut the collar off to make it a lower top & it worked great so it's totally doable.

[@TwilightLuver216]

So for the second braid you did, did you put it on top of the first or was one above and the other was below?

[@aprilroxursox1]

YOURE BACK

[@susieque3361]

I actually like the "scrunched" look~as long as it's symmetrical, it looks like you planned it that way. Also I personally wanted a higher neckline so your tutorial gave me a LOT of great info to make my own. THANK YOU!!!

[@SevenGorgeousGals]

so cute!!! liked this video!!

[@marybrown8992]

Hm... I have a suspicion that the the braid is thinner in the center because the holes were farther apart there. I'd like to try this and make the loops tighter in the front and looser in the sides so it scrunches, but doesn't distort the sleeves. Do you think that'd work?

[@farihajidda8125]

It would really b helpful if u show,how did u start d braid n how ur gonna end it up:)

[@HumberGirl77]

That is insanely pretty, LOVE

[@mace1125]

I don't understand how to start the braiding part I saw you start with the loop you cut out but the other side was done already so I'm confused.....does that make sense?

[@MarciJG777]

is like doing crochet... but without the needle...try

[@J33zyDontDoIt]

I'm so happy you're posting videos again! :D

[@mariellehernandez1786]

Did you do more holes for the second braid? I didn't quite get how you did it..!

[@blkirishbeauty]

sorry to hear you fell, teeth can be fixed and you are still more beautiful than most so no need to be embarrassed! On another note, I love your videos and have found yet another way to be crafty thanks to your inspiration. Keep up the good work!

[@PaintingandExercise]

Would it just be easier to chain stitch your fabric strip and then tack it to the front of your shirt? I think that you have a cute idea.

[@ElleGee]

So cute! I love this idea! I also love the scrap box. That is genius! I've been doing that but didn't actually think to compile it all..

[@ingridjun3263]

Did you use the same holes for the second row? And how did you start off? didn't show on the video. Btw, you're so creative!

[@dorisleyba5916]

2 rows are a must, excellent look

[@KalinTheZola]

I can appreciate you making a video despite being somewhat embarrassed.

[@SalinaSiu]

Doing it on pants is such a good idea!

[@Maririnnu]

I tried voting but for some reason it loaded a page that said "page not found." what do I do!!? ;( by the way, awesome technique! Thanks for sharing.

[@aNiRbAs999]

Actually, I have a chipped front tooth too, but not that much.. Are you going to get it fixed or anything?

[@robingore]

I watched the video up until the point where you poked holes around the neckline, then all of a sudden the braiding is halfway done ... did I miss something? The video goes from poking the little holes to looping on an already braided front :-( . I don't know how to start the braiding at all :-(

[@ViejaLoca89]

Was it skating? I chipped my tooth once skating. I was lucky it was on a wooden surface. ;)

[@SalinaSiu]

Ouch, yeah, I need to do a root canal and get a crown.

[@CrayolaaLover]

can you do this with an off the shoulder shirt? or a shirt you cut the neck from to be off the shoulder

[@Agent2454]

great job!!!

[@ellachesson2867]

you need to give more detail of how to do the braiding... I got really confused and couldn't tell how exactly you were doing it

[@joeseatat]

I think a very bulky weight yarn could be used for the braiding string

[@moomoo0508]

Dont feel bad, l have done the same thing...ur pretty broken tooth or not. Good for u for goin ahead n making the tutorial anyhoo n not bein stupid like me n thinkin everyones starin at ur tooth...when its not u, u can clearly see they're not. Good job.

[@anitawilleatyou4048]

Thanks for this video, i had a prebraided neckline and was always wondering how they did it :D

[@tonyaadside1696]

You were skating or skiing?

[@ailhaj]

i have a sweater dress that has a turtle neck.... i want to change the turtle neck part but im not sure what to do with it.......

[@lexiconlover]

...besides cutting it off?

[@ailhaj]

lexiconlover I made one cut down the middle of the turtle neck.... I might turn those sides into a collar...

[@lexiconlover]

i would like to see that

[@OhZyra]

This is really cool!

[@adeleb7753]

Very nice 😊 another idea... take out the hem of the tshirt on the bottom and u get a nice curl 😊

[@SalinaSiu]

Haha yes! Now the question is if I can keep up the videos :P

[@rowe5550]

Salina, you did not show how you started the braid.

[@WeAreTheJokes]

Also your videos are awesome. Right now I am cuttin' up my t-shirts! =)

[@TradingPhotoS]

It's a new style in your city??

[@SalinaSiu]

I was inspired from Pinterest!

[@TradingPhotoS]

Cool

[@elsiesanchez6466]

Nice

[@AshlynKShope]

can you like mix colors win you to the braid like have a 2 diffrent colored braid

[@MabedeBabe]

You were tossing M&M's in the air and catching them in your mouth. I'm glad you didn't let this setback hold you back from posting this This looks great. Looking forward to trying it.

[@SalinaSiu]

That can happen?!

[@aditiwalke5997]

Oh boy ! That's so good ...

[@tuntummelanin4487]

please do the video again and show how you started the braiding and how you ended please. its not fair

[@SalinaSiu]

Did you notice the lisp in the video?

[@avocado3748]

You are adorable and have a great sense of humor. Forget the stupid comments.

[@marcialeehopkins-marker9968]

+netty chow AMEN!

[@SalinaSiu]

I know, I try to keep it short but always end up long lol. It was a 25 min video before I cut out a lot of stuff. Will try harder next time!!

[@SalinaSiu]

I got them fixed! All better now :)

[@AravahStar]

Sorry about your unfortunate tooth event. I love this idea!! One thing I don't understand is this written instruction - "Instead of 2 sets of knots for 2 braids, tie THEM together with only 1 knot and hide it in the back" 'Them' who?? The beginning and end of your string?Are you saying to use just one string twice as long as your first one and go around the neck twice?? I'd love to see a tutorial of how you achieved this look...I'm a bit lost lol

[@SalinaSiu]

I think I understood most of that!! Thanks hehe.

[@SalinaSiu]

Yes!

[@AshlynKShope]

can you do the braid all the way around to the back

[@freewolf7337]

playing? Thank you that was a really great video! What a beautiful creation. It would make a nice gift for someone, too

[@kristine2285]

Sorry but I don't understand exactly how to do the braiding. Did you chip your tooth skateboarding? 😁

[@Hattagospel]

I voted and I hope my friends on fb will vote on you too. Thanks for all your good tips.

[@xsunnydayx3]

Hey I tried voting for you but the page took me to facebook and then said that the page was currently unavailable. :( i will try again but I do not have a facebook so I might not be able to. Just letting you know you have my vote! I hope I can actually get it in to count, but either way I love your videos:) so fun and creative

[@glitzgal10]

Thank you for all your T-shirt postings, Sorry about your tooth. Hope you win your contest !

[@hellenrules]

Te quedó super bonita la blusa :D

[@RAE5558]

You are an inspiring young lady. With my bulky knitting machine I will design a curved neckline for a plain top, including well spaced eyelets 3/4 inch from the edge. Next a narrow cord of the same color knitting yarn, for the top braid, while watching my hand laced loop tension, will be made. I will try 3x the neck circumference. Since I have made more than 40 self designed sweaters, it should work. Some of my designs were published by Annie's Attic in the 1980s.

[@ellachesson2867]

could you please do a redo of this video? you need to make a COMPLETE tutorial without skipping any parts!!

[@clwxrf6007]

Great job, I want to try this. I wish I would have watched this vid back then. I would have voted for you.

[@laurakenney225]

me too. thanks for posting such a cute idea

[@margiemcgarva9876]

You don't show how to start the braiding.

[@AddyAddyO]

Since it a flat brake I say it was something small.. Like you dropped something of your face or got hit in the face on accident.. I'm thinking either iPhone or cabinet door handle.

[@sandrabacon3445]

You hit it on something accidentally when you were moving either up or down, or turning and hit it in something.

[@rosiemroczynski8483]

your video is very hard to see, needs to be clearer and also more details about starting. Your idea is great and it would be so helpful to see it more easily

[@SalinaSiu]

Is it distracting?

[@SalinaSiu]

LOL what a boss. Thanks!! Make sure you see my newer video, I'm having prizes for people who help vote for me

[@SalinaSiu]

Aww thanks.

[@SalinaSiu]

Aww thank you! Glad I could help!

[@Dustycrypt]

so pretty il try this... thanks for sharing Salina?

[@TheRyleeAnn]

I chipped my tooth a few years ago playing tether ball. Got hit in the face. Not the best experience. Got a crown, then it got infected and I had to get a root canal and since I'm scared of dentists I had to go to the hospital to get it done so i wouldn't attack the dentist. But now you can hardly notice haha.

[@ninnyl]

Holes closer to edge, holes close to each other is fine just loosen the string!

[@dangi03]

can you like, give a step by step instructions on voting for the media awards.i'm kinda lost

[@keithhoward4059]

[@Coffeeology]

Props for you for willing to be on YT with the tooth issue.

[@Pixelynx]

So since I've just discovered her, did she ever tell what happened with her tooth? .__.

[@danyelehernandez1424]

Awww she kept on making the video still

[@SalinaSiu]

Yikes, that's why I always go slow when skating haha. But no, I wasn't skating this time!
