[@katewatson4942]

I love the 'fuck around and find out' energy of this channel. It really makes me feel less pressure when I'm sewing my own stuff.

[@ykaylow1803]

absolutely............a breath of fresh air.

[@briannenurse4640]

Same!

[@ash_ae_9]

I cant express how much i love this channel, found it one random evening and everytime she post it genuinely makes me excited, thanks kira😌

[@faithclabaugh4768]

same. I get demotivated from time to time I see her stuff it makes me want to sew. I can't even say how many times I've started watching her video and then started my own project because she's making something.anyway all the love Kira you're always so pretty.

[@alexandralite835]

I found her randomly too, when all my usual sewing channels hadn't posted. Yay for random clicking.

[@sarahc8862]

Totally understand same

[@steeliahmann]

As a makeup artist I think I now understand how professional seamstresses feel watching your content 😂

[@bagel_guy9495]

You feel overwhelming joy watching someone genuinely enjoying the craft

[@steeliahmann]

@bagel_guy9495 oh Ive always loved the videos it's more the "you're doing so many things the wrong way and it somehow looks excellent"

[@anbu1325]

I felt the same when she was pumpkin carving. But the end results were so good! She is such a quick learner!

[@NerdySalemSays]

Me, cringing when she put acrylic paint on her face...

[@cooliopumpkin7045]

dude for REAL. I've always enjoyed her makeup looks, but damn, yeah, we /do/ need to trust the process lol. I can't even say anything about the paint bc years ago before I finally got white liner, I was practicing drag eyes and putting white acrylic paint entirely too close to my eyes- like, it definitely got in there a few times 😬

[@Laaaaa96]

I know most people will instantly think Elsa, but for me, it's giving such glam bombshell Snow Miser/Jack Frost and I'm obsessed ❄️❄️❄️

[@stormfaring]

That was my thought, too!

[@thealphafox64]

10:29 in case you could be bothered, you can add something called a balayeuse to your train which is meant to keep the actual fabric of your garment clean. You can just take it off and wash it separately after wearing it in a dirty environment.

[@faithclabaugh4768]

I get demotivated from time to time I see her stuff it makes me want to sew. I can't even say how many times I've started watching her video and then started my own project because she's making something.anyway all the love Kira you're always so pretty.

[@Animallovercomedian]

I love love love watching her videos when doing my own projects. Especially embroidery since I can sort of watch at the same time

[@runt5622]

Opening shot of you in the woods is so perfect ngl looks like it should be in some cool goth movie

[@thewiildheart24]

your eyes are definitely just more downturned on the outside corners rather than hooded (you have TONS of eyelid space omg i am jealous) but this entire costume and makeup look turned out AMAZING!!!!!!!!

[@mmangaboi_5355]

I almost couldnt believe it when i saw the runtime, I absolutely LOVEEEEEE the longer videos so this is a new years eve treat if ever i saw one :)

[@brasstail]

I think because you've been growing your sewing skills it becomes easier to go a little unhinged and it still turn out pretty well. This look was great and I loved all the looks from this year!

[@mjotter1421]

Can i just say, i love the editing of this video in particular. It felt a little different than normal, very funny and dynamic 10/10

[@ctoinc9471]

The jumping spider picture made me laugh so hard cause I knew you were gonna say something about it being a web lol

[@huntressmma1822]

Ok, so the chainmail over the top of the corset is also I really awesome look!🥶❄❄❄

[@wolfyboi5395]

Seriously!! It adds even more vibes of the ice queen from Narnia, especially closer to the final battle lol

[@violetsanddragons]

I don't think the half sleeves are overused it's part of your ✨️ S T Y L E ✨️

[@tstymctst]

❄⛄ Great project to round out the year. I look forward to seeing what you come up with in 2025!

[@KaypeaCreations]

The chaos was mmm👌top tier 😌

[@just_your_local_goth]

29:11 Literally who I thought of when you mentioned people comparing this to Elsa!

[@its_sylvanaa3908]

I love this design so much! I've fone the icicles crown trick recently too for a dnd oc tiktok and i was so pleased with it. Now I'm wishing i added icicle ornament to mine because yours looks amazing!

[@WSchmidt09]

You absolutely dodged looking like Elsa - your winter queen seems notably cooler and aloof in a very satisfying way. Tremendous work! Good luck in your 2025! Thanks for making our 2024 that much better. 💙

[@scaredcrowed]

oh, i'm so excited! i missed your videos, kira! happy new year

[@lyladepaula3291]

Girl I just use a hand-press thing for my grommets. It was like $5 on Amazon and is 1000% easier than using a hammer

[@theawesomecatmom8315]

Fabric puffy paint and then a shimmery embroidery floss over it is nice for icy effect with dimension. I did a jack frost cosplay and did that on the jacket

[@OscelotTheCat]

If you want suggestions for great makeup, I super suggest Concrete Minerals. Leaping bunny certified, super pigmented. They've even got duochromes. Also thanks for the tip for liner, I always have trouble with liner. ❄

[@lynn1752]

I was so confused when you said you'd have another video coming out this year, it's currently 23u42 on the 31st. Then I realised I'm in another continent 😅

[@lululavendres7903]

I live in the same time zone-- She posted it after midnight on the 31st, giving herself less than 24 hours left of the year. 😂

[@Splicer02]

I've been demotivated with sewing for a bit now, but while watching this I got inspired and designed a cloak pattern that has fitted shoulders and has almost no fabric waste. Tested it on paper and it works in theory, super excited to try it out. Thanks for the general inspiration and excitement :D

[@Kajenx]

The giant TV with the zoomed in fireplace is giving house fire more than cozy fireplace, lol, but I feel like that works with the channel's theme anyway.

[@Kittyintheraiyn]

❄❄❄The fit looks fabulous! Love a good swishy cape❄❄❄ (and for a completely non dress related comment. Tiger looks so much like a kitty I had when I was a teenager, and seeing her curled up like that, with her widdle paw over her face. My heart! It was so full.)

[@secretly7bees]

...I think I may need to make myself a similar cloak. The swoosh and melodrama is just *chefs kiss* the glittery touches make the whole ensemble really pop!!! love this look

[@ivyarianrhod]

Kira: uploads video on New Year's Eve. Also Kira: says there's one more video this year that'll be uploaded closer to New Year's. I went to college in Pittsburgh! (Point Park College , now Point Park University.) This video is pretty! ❄❄❄

[@CrystalCauliflower]

Heading into the new year, I just wanted to express my gratitude to you Kira. The crafts and sprinkles of chaos always give me the dopamine boost my brain is so severely lacking, and your projects give me a creative outlet even when I don’t have the resources, times, or energy to make something of my own. And also I love your art style. Thank you so much for the videos, they make my personal KZbin corner much more cozy and interesting every time you post. HAPPY NEW YEAR 🎆 💜

[@runt5622]

5:33 I loved this entire sequence it’s so funny and the editing is great

[@lizabee484]

This was amazing! It looks incredible as always Kira :) Im sure a few people might start yelling about you putting acrylic paint on your face, so I’ll just say, (as a part-time sfx makeup artist), that I find mehron water-activated paradise paints work well for small paint jobs, like the one you did in this video. I hope this doesn’t come across as weird or over-reaching! It’s just meant as a kind suggestion, I know from experience that acrylic paint is not something you want on your face or near your eyes!

[@karencoon6243]

Everything turned out so pretty, that corset is beautiful. 🌨❄❄☃

[@JaniceSeagraves]

Very nice.❄❄ I agree with you that the skirt looks better down. You could always add a drape skirt later that goes over the skirt.❄❄

[@annaabney1420]

You don't have to duplicate the snowflake on the other sleeve! Remember no two snowflakes are alike! ❄️

[@ADHDposterchild27]

Snow-related character design prompt: Snow elves who are some sort of guardians for the winter forest they live in (not sure if you've already done this or not but still)

[@ChurroPole]

Another banger video, especially for chilling on the first day of the year. This inspires me so much for like a fae- ice queen character from the Feywild (like a female prince of frost, if you’re familiar) this was absolutely fantastic!

[@minanusskuchen2292]

I really feel the indecition about how to cut the cloak. In my own projekts there is always at least one point where i am unshure how to proceed. And then i procrastinate and think way to much about it! The finnished look is stunning! I really feel like the details and decoration pull the look together and make it special! Also I am really exitet to see the cloak with the porcelain corsett!

[@annamaeouimet8812]

I loved this!!! this is one of my favorites that you have done in a while the humor is fantastic!!! chef kiss

[@ararts.45]

Okay, you have convinced me -- I need to finally make that cape project I have been putting off... (And as a fellow Pittsburgher, I absolutely agree that the snow is worth the crazy temperatures!)

[@lesleyharris525]

❄️. Happy New Year to everyone. Love the costume, never ceases to amaze me how you just seem to grab stuff and sew and glue it into an amazing costume, looking forward to being amazed in 2025. ❤

[@darkspirit7389]

I would suggest going with less saturated colors for an ice or winter vibe. As much as I ADORE vibrant colors, they just don’t quite lend themselves well to an icy vibe. A deep rich blue like your crushed velvet is PERFECT for an ocean, and will go AMAZING with your blue porcelain armor, it’s not great for an ice and snow vibe

[@MengoMango324]

Hey Kira, just wanted to say you're doing amazing! You've inspired me so much and helped me develop as an artist

[@lindseybotelho]

I love that you included your makeup this time!

[@SarahCoffee221b]

You rock, as perusual. Can't wait until next year to see you do more awesomeness. As a side note, and not that you asked, but I REALLY loved all your Bob Ross upgrade videos. Your brother makes it even more entertaining. But your artistic addons would wow Mr. Ross and his happy trees. Look forward to the next one ;)

[@BlueMerStudios]

I really love how this turned out! It has so much room to grow, like you want. I hope you have a happy new year!

[@tengutheterrible8491]

STUNNING! Giving true Snow Queen realness😍❄️

[@renairoa]

I absolutely need to try out your eyeliner strategy, I still haven't figured out a way that works for my hooded lids🥲 & that corset turned out gorgeous!❄💙

[@jenniferaddison3829]

Wow, another beautiful creation! You nailed it!

[@slice_of_void]

hey! you sound like the type of person who would like The Magnus archives, and if you get into it, maybe just maybe do a beholding inspired outfit/costume/fantasy cool clothing? I think you'd look really cool in that, and I'd love to see your twist in the theme

[@kobi4965]

So pretty I love your videos

[@CorvusCubby]

Agreed

[@loreleyberg8168]

The corset turned out magnificent! I also love the fabrics you used, looks expensive and magical ✨❄️

[@JessicaGem]

❄❄❄As a Canadian currently living in Australia and badly missing the snow and ice, thank you so much for the vibes!!! ❄❄❄

[@TSPN]

Frosty and FANTASTIC! I always love your videos and you're so COOL! ❄️✨️🩵

[@allisonwhitley2718]

I love how everything turned out! The color combo is just perfect!

[@Bokatisha1234]

I KNEW you had Pennsylvanian energy.

[@xingcat]

Fabulous! I think the sleeves are my favorite part. Something about the unexpected combination of glitter glue and stretch velvet coming out so well is really delightful to me.

[@PirateBat]

Gorgeous dress mrs alpaca. 🤩 it's blue

[@ykaylow1803]

I agree with Tiger.........excellent rectangle.

[@spitandcoffee]

❄❄❄ this turned out beautifully and looks downright magical

[@polinali]

Love your videos❄️

[@C.f001]

This corset is a dream! So beautiful 😍

[@thesaviourfromheavensunwuk9639]

It's absolutely amazing

[@faith4964]

All of the icy detailing makes the fit look soooo cool

[@umileeproductions]

Gettin' me further down my procrastination rabbit hole heck yea! 😅.

[@inked_9574]

This turned out so good!!!! I’d love to see more makeup looks. Even though I don’t wear it, I think it’s fun to watch

[@jrj5893]

I was hesitant about the idea of all the icicles, but they turned out so pretty! So I have a thought about adding to the voluminousness of the skirt/hip layers - what about using one - or both - of those white floaty nightgown/jackety/coaty things you made in your whimsygoth scrapbusting video, and use the top parts to fill the hip area, then have the blue skirt over top hiked like you had it so it's like layers and layers of skirt underneath the corset? I'm not sure how practical that would be unless you managed to rig some sort of hip pouches, but it might help up the Drama so the outfit matches the cloak a bit more.

[@Ghostkittyart]

9.20 the arm justg sitting in the back is just amazing

[@missmeakat]

For a cheaper alternative to a grommet press, I've seen good reviews on the Crop-a-dile, a hand held eyelet press, I'm gonna get one for my birthday 🙂

[@Mr.MossyTeacup]

Your chainmail video inspired me to make a coif, which I've been wanting for a long time! It was definitely a lot easier than it would've been, because I'd already seen you do it. (It's not *exactly* finished yet, I accidentally ordered the wrong size rings after I ran out 😅- So I'm making gloves next!) Your corset turned out amazing! I always love your videos, they're so much fun and always make me smile ❤

[@ChantelleArts]

Yes I am HERE for winter Kira 😍

[@catherineleslie-faye4302]

The only change I would make is swap in a pair of ice blue with silver snowflake fleece leggings for the gray tights. All else echoes your sketch in a very dreamy snowy way.

[@JayofallTrades]

Not frozen you say? Yet you have the elsa braid going on during the boning of the corset lol 🤣 It turned out beautiful and I'm getting a mix between chronicles of Narnia and frozen ice queens for sure. Love how the glitter on the arms came out

[@lachauntiswashington231]

This is so stunning and beautiful. You really do look like a snow queen. 😍❄️💙 Happy New Year🤗🥳🎉🎊✨️😘❤️ can't wait for next year projects

[@hope84114]

The crown reminded me of the Snow Queen in Narnia. Great video to end the year with!

[@RoseyMayTheDevang]

feel like you could put some ties at the bottom of the hem of the skirt and then put some loops on the back of the corset to hold up the front of the skirt. sorry if that won't work... Umm... Merry Christmas/ Yule tide greetings and happy new year!

[@celeste4539]

what a wonderful way to enter the new year, hoping to carry some of your creativity into the new year

[@Bobbijart444]

I'm from Alberta Canada and I have thought about moving because I hate the snow so much and it affects my mental health so much! 🙃 This coat would make me feel better about going out hahaha I need 😅😅

[@gabrielah5829]

This video is so pretty! I love the whole look and the makeup looks great too! ✨

[@classicalslayer4109]

We got a late Christmas present here. My best friend gonna love this cause she loves blue especially the shade used for the corset. The final product is very pretty I love the ice queen vibes as ice is just an aesthetic I really love. My brain just loves shinny crystalline forzen water. Also I get the comment about it being wet in the winter, in the UK it's just wet grey and cold in winter I haven't seen real snow in..... Idk how long. But I am very excited for your next video and I hope you have an amazing Christmas and vacation. Excited for what the new year holds for your channel. Lovely work excited for your next video ❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️

[@dethurge]

Well done! The hot glue necklace is pretty great.

[@whitneynewton9063]

You look so beautiful ! I love the design and silhouette ! Lovely work! ❄️

[@Klingonii]

It is looking so good!!❄️❄️

[@Lucifer_Abysseum]

Woaw video, you're really pretty ❄! Seriously tho, the cloak is exactly my favourite color and the corset is shiny and beautifuuul !! Also, i liked seeing the make up process, its nice

[@mecarr9215]

❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️ I loved getting to see the makeup details!

[@poisonedsodapop]

Happy New Year Kira! This one really came together and is super pretty!

[@ClockworkFaery]

Giving your video some love for the algorithm! Happy New Year! ❄️❄️❄️☃️⛄️⛄️🧝🏻‍♀️😻

[@hollyerin897]

Editing is 10/10 this round!! much aside from the rest of the wonderful chaos. Great work

[@FreeToBeZii]

Hope you've had a good end of year time 🎉 ☃️❄️ I miss the nice cold weather T^T it's too hot down here in the southern hemisphere

[@EllieWest-v3v]

Pittsburgh slayyyy ❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️ fr tho my fam is from there and as someone who lives in the south, I totally see where you’re coming from about snow :) it snowed on my birthday once while i was there and it was awesome!!!

[@Lilianovich]

For me the OG snowqueen has always been the one from the story by H. C. Andersen and your look matches the story pretty well (just add a bit more drama). Love that story, it is definitely worth reading 😊

[@kathrynbrown231]

❄️ A perfect video for this week! Great job!

[@lindseybotelho]

I didn't know you were from the Northeast but I always felt you had a Northeast kinda vibe more so than a Florida vibe. I'm also from the Northeast (Boston) so I feel like I can tell 😊

[@echonebula1745]

Gorgeous ❄️

[@kellytroy7602]

Happy New Year! ❄☃❄

[@kerrystringer6932]

You always look pretty. I literally can't wait for you're videos to come out.

[@ManEatingTeddyBear]

What a way to cap off 2024! Loved all your videos this year and wish you all the creativity and inspiration for 2025!
