These $25 ART BOXES Are Sold At DISNEYWORLD?!? I'm shook..

[@tvaddictedbooklover]

Speaking as a knitter/crocheter/cross-stitcher: the back of a cross-stitch exists to hide away all your yarn sins. If you can't see it, it doesn't exist 🤫 Taking the Disney tax into consideration, the price doesn't seem too bad. But I'd probably spend that $25 on a decent cross-stitch kit that's a bit higher quality

[@paulmajor2667]

The back of my cross-stitch are much more clean than that…

[@cherachapin3826]

Grandma always taught us "God sees everything." Which sounds super serious when we are talking about cross stitch 😅 but Grandma didn't play. Our cross stitch had to be the same on front and back (or else very very similar) because God would see our mistakes 😂

[@breinfrog5879]

😳 good thing I'm not religious , my backs are ....@@cherachapin3826

[@pilesofpeonies]

You could honestly buy a couple cross stitch kits for that price. (I think the last one I got was 10-15$ and it came with a needle, Aida cloth, pattern, and thread and some even come with a hoop 👀👀). Definitely a bad craft kit imo but I've also been cross stitching for a while. There's much better things for beginners but I can see this as helpful to get into the swing of cross stitch

[@caroleberreur9585]

To cross-stitch neater, you can always do the same line of upwards x (bottom left to top right), then come back on the same line to do to right to bottom left. That way, all stitches lay in the same direction, but yes, at some stage it will look a bit odd on the back; that’s absolutely fine in my book. This kit seemed actually harder to do than normal thread, as it’s thick and twists here… I don’t know if it would look good with anyone trying it.😅

[@pauladavitt7554]

Definitely should have instructions included in the first box. When cross stitching your thread should be a lot shorter and we would normally split the stands of thread.

[@hellopeeps2001]

I’m not a cross stitch person but I totally wondered if she was supposed to split the thread or not. I feel like with that advanced (for a non crafty adult) a project, they should have definitely included directions.

[@pauladavitt7554]

@@hellopeeps2001 I cross stitch too and I couldn’t work out if it was a thick yarn or thread that we would normally split into strands. It’s a shame because Disney are definitely letting the buyers down by not including instructions. I’ve never known a craft kit to not include at least basic instructions.

[@hpdftba]

I will say that I bought a Mondo Llama embroidery kit at Target and it came with great instructions. I would recommend that!

[@hellopeeps2001]

@@pauladavitt7554 that’s what confused me the most! Even craft kits you can get from 5below have directions and not all of them are that great. Idk why Disney couldn’t make directions for a kit that costs almost double the worth of the items included

[@wintersprite]

I wonder if you could also do it more like yarn canvas art since the holes are bigger.

[@cheyenne21577]

I like that they’re different than the typical “paint this” “glue these” type craft. It’s simple, mess free, easily do able crafts for kids/teens/adults/seniors or even those with some disabilities. I think That’s a great gift for any Disney fan weather they have any artistic talent or not 😊

The washi tape with the mache Mickey is similar to decoupage. I could see it being super cute as a decoration if sealed with a couple of layers of midge podge.

[@jeancrochets]

For disney pricing that craft kit is pretty decently priced. The colouring pages are overpriced, though. You could get a full book for that price.

[@anitasmith7764]

The colored pencils could probably be bought for $1 at a dollar store honestly. The stickers maybe $2-3, and the pages probably $3-5(tops) so maybe it could be fair for $10 even as Disney. I swear by the dollar tree and mighty dollar bc they have stuff very very similar (namebrand) for $1. Some stuff they have is super cheap but they have great deals on namebrand stuff if you can catch them before they sell out

[@AbeM.]

@@anitasmith7764 you could honestly take about any object from any store inside the parks and find a cheaper equivalent elsewhere. It's just the reality of purchasing souvenirs inside an amusement park.

[@barbaragray]

For cross stitching you don't want the thread super long. Normally 18 inches or so is the recommended length, that way you don't struggle so much.

[@metagnat]

I've done the "washi tape the heck out of object" craft with giant letters for decor (I did my initials). It's fun and kind of low-stakes compared to a lot of crafts I do. Sometimes you want to chill and just play with design.

[@yesalphabeta]

2:00 I don’t know why but the sudden appearance of a dog is exactly the vibes I expected from this video 😂

[@kortneyk6056]

A couple of tips from a cross stitcher: Cut the thread to make it more manageable! Try doing a whole line of half stitches and then turning around and going back the other way. That's how the back gets to look neat!

[@listatts]

I love the colors you used for Bambi ! It would make adorable wallpaper for a child’s bedroom! 😍

[@ritlua]

I feel like the potential added value beyond Disney theming would have been some more thought into presentation. Having examples/tutorials of what to create or ways to use it / put it up in your home. Not having that devalues it a lot for me. It's cute but even you just finding it in the store, there was nothing on the packaging that would inspire me to get it myself.

[@ChloeRoseArt]

I agree it definitely needed examples/tutorials for ideas! I do art and craft for a living and I was confused 😂 let alone someone who isn’t an artist just trying it and being even more confused!

[@MAashChick]

The craft kit seems like a decent price for something sold at the park, and though i certainly wouldn't have thought of the washi tape craft it makes perfect sense as something that you could do in the evening while staying at a hotel.

[@threesixfiveart563]

For the cross stitch… do all one direction slashes in one row, then go back over them doing the other direction slash.

[@Xanti_Y]

For me both sets are for children and a way to expensive - no matter if it’s Disney's or not! 😬😅

[@jessicafutrell3204]

@@michaelbergstrom9346 Yes, I could see it maybe being labeled novice or teen. But, comparable spiced adult kits from places like kiwi crate are of much higher quality. I guess the high price is partly cause it is in the park, but...

[@chronicgaming3280]

I like how the colouring set does not include a sharpener so if you are staying in one of the hotels you have no choice but to wait till the following day and buy one, no doubt the only ones available are in the shape of characters with crazy price tags.. Keep up the great Art and Content 😁👍

[@Diana-en4it]

nah, they just want you to get creative just like back in the day where they used knife like sharp objects to make wooden spears or statues with wood :D

[@Sirithre]

As someone who cross stitches and designs cross stitch patterns /as a business/, you did GREAT. The back can be as messy or neat as you want it. It does not have to be perfect. Unless you're entering it in a state faire. Everyone stitches differently, there are dozens of styles and techniques, and there is no "right" way to do it. It absolutely does take forever, that is normal. And yes, yanking your project off the table and learning how hard it is to count to 5 is absolutely part of the process. Well done! Using shorter lengths of thread will help if you ever do it again. :)

[@cazkiwinz4300]

That dog rug is amazingly lifelike! 😮😂

[@hollyberry0602]

I don't think your cross stitch has to look neat on the back! All that matters is that the front looks cute, and yours does! 😊 I tried cross stitch last year and it was really relaxing, but the back looked so messy. But my little niffler cross stitch looked adorable on the front lol

[@AubreyMobley]

My grandma said the neat thing too, it might be a generational thing.

[@ChloeRoseArt]

Ahhh I bet a niffler cross stitch would be adorable!!

[@melissaaldosari8024]

I don’t know what a niffler is, might have to look that up! But cross stitch being neat on the back is because when you frame it, the lumpy mess can make the finished piece lumpy on the front.

[@melissaaldosari8024]

Aww! A niffler is adorable! 🥰

[@simplydivine3479]

It doesn’t have to, but it’s actually quite easy to do. If you do a whole line of stitches going in one direction, from the bottom left to top right( / / / / / ) then go back over the other direction bottom right to top left ( X X X X X) you get the prefect stitch front and back

It seems pretty good value, more so than so many other kits you’ve shown. While I personally prefer painting, I think the washi activity is achievable for anyone, and allows for personal creativity - every one made will be different, without needing Art skills. And makes for a unique souvenir once done.

It is Christmas themed. As they had them in our Target in Australia as a Christmas craft. So after Christmas, they went on sale to under $10 (i want to say it was more like $5). So you best believe I brought it.

[@CrystalPCreates]

I personally agree with Chloe, that the first adult craft kit gave more of your money’s worth. It is really nice that they have adult kits at Disney! Though, card stock for the coloring pages would have been nice. Still had tons of fun watching this video!! 🥰

[@barbarasmith2693]

Cross stitch is the bane of my existence. To anyone who loves it and/or finds it relaxing, more power to you. I find it incredibly tedious and it stresses me out. I have a relative who used to do those extremely complex cross stitch projects that look almost like a painting when finished with mega-quadzillion shades of embroidery thread. I would lose my mind.

[@LynetteBunBun]

Chloe a tip to make your cross stitch neatish on the back is go one direction and then go back to finish the x it looks a bunch neater and you are wasting less thread.

tarzan.. was jungle book -dies-You used to thick thread.. it's meant to be broken into strands. It's usually a 6 strand Skien and you use 1 or 2 strands on fabric.. on that paper I'd say 3.. but you are trying to push through 6 which is why it's struggling

It is def overpriced but still cute. Also, the markers might be to outline the picture on the outside of the kit to make it easier to color.

[@morganadams2122]

So, I only recently got into cross stitch. As someone who, when I Crochet or knit, I fix on the fly etc etc - the back being neat or not doesn't matter. If the back being neat matters to you, you work in a column or row at a time doing the first part of the cross along and then work your way back along the row/column for the second part of the X

[@jessica9060]

[@fredforever71]

Woo, defo the craft kit, loved the little cross stitch thingies! :)

[@blackrose538]

Well, you actually cross stitch in rows. You do a row of half a cross stitches in one direction and when you reach the end of the row you go back to make the cross. Then the back does look neat and you don't waste so much thread :) that's what my mum taught me anyway. I don't even know which kit I might have bought.... probably the colouring one, but then copied the pictures onto better paper and used my better quality pencils xD

[@AbeM.]

For a Disney in-park purchase, it’s honestly decently priced. The coloring kit, more so than the coloring pages being the source of value, the packaging seems like a nice sturdy folder you can reuse.

[@EvelynRobinson22]

Target Australia sold the same kits at Christmas time last year for $20

[@AbeM.]

​@@EvelynRobinson22 Seems about normal, not too much of a different by Disney park standards. I would probably buy at least one if I saw them at target 😅

[@untidyfan]

If that's yarn and not embroidery floss, you can thread the needle by using a narrow strip of paper folded in half (short wise, not length wise), sandwich the yard between the paper, and push the paper( folded end first) through the eye. I would have wanted instructions and maybe examples to follow for the stitching because otherwise I'd spend days drafting my own sub-par design.

[@shaunacorrigan9372]

I've never seen the papier mache/washi tape craft before and I actually kinda love the idea. Seems like a fun way to use some of the washi tape that I buy cuz it's pretty but just sits in a drawer cuz I don't know what to do with it😅

[@mchobbit2951]

I know this is about the craft kid but THE DOG!! What a cutie!

[@bluejay6969]

You should rail road your thread first ///// then at the end of the row go back \\\\\. makes the back neater and less tangly thread. With the washy tape and paper mache decor, i cover them in mod podge once finished. it stops any "cheap" washy tape coming up at the ends. I wouldn't have paid the $25 but that's because if you convert it to AUD its closer to $40. I would pay $15 at most (approx $25 aud)

[@daskraut]

only an american multi billion dollar corporation can come up with something as dreadful as cross-stitch *on cardboard!* especially with half the cardboard showing when the thing is finished. they wanted money for this abomination?

[@BiggerinRealLife]

Cross stitch is worked in rows back and forth. You do half the X's first like ///// then cross them back the other way \\\\\. 👍🏼 When the thread gets twisty just let it dangle from your work and it'll untwist.

[@fancyfilly8]

For cross stitch, you should do all of one side of the x for a row, then go the other way and do all the other halves of the x. That way the back is just vertical lines, and neat and tidy just like grandma's!

Hi Chloe, you are looking really lovely today. The two kits you bought to show us today looked so promising at first but they weren't as good as all that once they were opened.

Or just keep it bedazzled in your art room. Anyway, it was just an idea. God bless you Chloe and your beau. Have a lovely weekend!

[@AchmelvichIsAce]

I like doing decoupage on things like that Mickey head, but I'm not sure I'd ever want to use exclusively washi tape - it gives less control over shapes and since washi tape is usually more expensive than tissue paper and things like that, it seems a waste of tape

[@nikitatavernitilitvynova]

The trick to get a neat cross stitch back is to avoid tying knots and to work in sections. Instead of doing each cross at once you do one leg (if you can call it that) at a time for the entire section. Let's say I do the leg that goes from left to right first for the 10 consecutive stitches I have to do and then I go back and finish all the exes.

[@kiwikailee]

I was taught when doing cross stitch, you go in the one direction until you've finished that row of that colour (ie: ///////) then go back to create the 'X' that would always keep the back tidy... ❤

[@TiBunCosplay]

IDK, I feel like that is more a pre-teen craft kit. Just because that's the sort of crafts I was doing as a pre-teen, Especially with that poke-free plastic needle and yarn for the "cross stitching" craft.
