I Tried Rug Tufting For The First Time

[@safiya]

HELLO FRIENDS!! today, i am armed and dangerous - and you better watch out!! 🧶i hope you guys enjoy this quick video that escaped from our footage vault after a year 😱what did you think of our final rug? would you try rug tufting? and what craft should we try next?? xoxo, saf

I always wonder how many people go to the places Saf visits after she releases the video. Do the businesses just experience a bit of a boost for a few weeks, or does it like explode their customer numbers? Or do they hardly notice anything at all because most of Saf's viewers don't live anywhere nearby?

[@nicholem4831]

It shocks me how few people understand how content creating works. Basically everything you see is tied to something else. If there’s travel- it’s multi faceted. It’s not just a train trip. Of course they have things planned along the way. They need to maximize their time and activities. Especially THIS channel which is irregular and sporadic with its uploads, so they need to do as much as possible during their travel so they have plenty of options for videos. Plus- write offs. It’s a better write off if a whole video is done about it. Travel for the purpose of work is a business expense, but travel as a video concept is an even better write off AND makes money. It’s not complicated.

[@doothi]

I feel like Safiya learns things insanely fast... I've been making tufting videos for almost a year now and that rug definitely isn't beginner quality 😭she could literally start a tufting asmr channel on the side haha

[@lep99]

That's one thing I really appreciate about these "I tried" videos Saf makes. They show how much skill and effort go into seemingly easy crafts (or at least, that are made to look simple by the artists' ability and video formatting). At the same time, they also show it's not impossible to learn these crafts if you dedicate yourself!

Been there, friend. My sincere sympathy. Those are some great channels, and I also suggest the wholesome livestreams from The Click and OneTopic to help fill the time when you can’t sleep, but also need a mental break from the stress. Some are more energetic and chaotic, but some are chill and a friendly, supportive voice in the background, and they last for hours like Evan and Katelyn’s live channel videos, so you don’t need to engage and make decisions for the next video if you don’t have the energy for that. 💜

AHHH THE NOSTALGIA. I have been trying to remember the name of Kid Pix for YEARS now. Tyler, you've solved a decades-old mystery! I loved playing Kid Pix Studio in first or second grade. Wow, the nostalgia! I found an older in-browser version and totally went on a half hour rabbit hole playing with the tools (and finally figuring out a bunch I never understood when I was little). My kids are going to have so much fun with that. The rug is so cute!!

I love that even when you're not really all that good at something, you keep going and going and get better and don't let little hiccups stop you! Especially as a recovering perfectionist/former gifted kid, it's really motivating to watch you do new stuff and film the process, showing off the end result even when it's not perfect. A lot of people who make a living posting online would rather lie about having done something by themself or not post anything less than perfect results, so you guys' videos are a breath of fresh air.
