From pranking Mama Maples with clothes that had no lining or seams to LITERALLY MAKING ONE OF YOUR WEDDING DRESSES?!?! Mia!! The lining. The trim. The boning. The sleeves. The layers. The lace-up back. I am HERE FOR THIS journey/content! But… literally, how can you top your actual wedding dance dress? Where does one go from here?! Except… to prank Mama Maples again?? ;) seriously, WOW!

[@cheryl-lynnmehring8606]

Too bad she didn't prank her with this dress! Pretend it was bought from an etsy seller & show Mama Maples to see her reaction!

[@mheuphoria]

Lol right!! That would’ve been perfect!!

Mia, I am your grandmother’s age. You are soooo funny. I was quirky and creative and wonderful like you when I was young but didn’t even know it and even more, was shamed for my creativity and independence. You literally are helping me love myself more and re-igniting a flame within. Crazy to say all that at my age but it’s true. Stay free. Stay true. Stay wonderful. You fill my heart with joy.

[@madelynjohnston7317]

What a lovely, genuine, sweet, and vulnerable compliment. It really is a testament to how wonderful of a person Mia is, and how she so effortlessly conveys her pure heart and good nature to us viewers through the camera. ❤️

[@danikanagle5142]

As a professional seamstress I am soooo happy to see Mia pressing her garments! This will take all of her makes to the next level. 👌 Beautiful dress! I feel so proud of her😅 also as a tip, if you get blood on your dress while sewing (it happens alot) your own spit removes your own blood. Just add a little to a q-tip and wipe it right off!

[@scatromommy789]

I learned this is high school Drama, you know set and costumes is a big part of any show.

[@sietohojoin]

Thanks for the tip 🤣👍🏻 I’m surprised i should try it

[@AllThePeppermint]

Thank you thank you thank you for the tip about spit removing blood! I'm planning on making my wedding dress, and I had NO IDEA about this tip! Positively thrilled, too! I'm in sales and met a "new to me" customer yesterday who offered me for free her adjustable dress form! Fiance and I are going to look at our calendars this weekend to figure out a good time to go pick it up!

[@ARaeSperry]

Me and my husband were laying around. He was watching his show with headphones on and I was watching Mia. When it got to the reveal he stopped his video and said “Wow, Mia mad that?” It takes a lot to get a compliment out of him. Be proud Mia. Be very proud!

[@meganboivin2261]

I love how humble you are. Even with your ability to financially buy a brand new dress or spend as much as you want, you chose to go your own route and save money where you can. Great job on your dress! Congrats on your wedding.

[@daniellethiessen8565]

About the paper pattern, we’ve bought a few online and what we do is cut them out and then draw them on parchment paper and cut those out and use them instead since they’re not as fragile. Parchment paper can be folded and put away with out ripping easier I believe so that could be an idea…

[@ridgewalker5718]

Grandma core is a thing,a sub of cottage core . I think I heard it described as Grandmillenium. I loved it when I came across it last year.. Went to the attic and pulled out my favorite treasures from the 80's early 90's. Redecorated my mountain cottage with it all. The wonderful florals, especially roses and cute antiques! So happy to be surrounded by all my favorite decor 💓! I'm a grandma so perfect for me.

[@emmamedina81]

Hi Mia!! Just a tip for sewing the overlay on- you can take paper and pin it to the fabric, then sew. It makes it a lot easier and prevents the overlay from slipping all over the place :) I love your videos and have loved seeing you grow over these past few years!!!

[@louisejohnson6057]

[@tedvarodell6037]

You can remove bloodstains with saliva. The enzymes in the salive will break down the proteins in the blood. BUT the blood and salive have to be from the same person and the stain has to be fresh. Spit on a soft cloth and then rub carefully on the stain. If the stain is smal enough you can lick on a tread and then pull the tread through the stain with a sewing needle a few times. I’m a tailor and this trick has saved a few wedding dresses
