I find it highly amusing to imagine how a robber would react to breaking into Rachel’s house at this point- “It looks like wood but it doesn’t feel like it… what is this?!!?!”
The Spooky Community has *OFFICIALLY* declared that Halloween Season begins on July 5th. Because the 4th of July is the last major holiday that stores put out decorations for. Therefore given that stores start selling stuff for the next holiday as soon as the last one is done. The Halloween Spooky Season *OFFICIALLY* begins on July 5th. 🎤 ⬇️
i literally put up all the fall decor we have in the house and the convo i had with my mom goes as follows: Mom: "its not even fall yet" Me: "its Sep 1st, its fall for me"
That's astronomical autumn, when days begin to get shorter. meteorological autumn occurs as soon as the weather shifts. Psychological autumn begins as soon as the right vibes smite you
As the proud owner of a jumbo size box of Aluminum foil, so old I was unable to decipher when was manufactured, I can attest to the sadness I feel now it’s finally almost done. ❤ Rachel you relatable queen.

I start getting spooky feels around May 1, Halfway To Halloween - when I also half decorate my yard. It's good to visit with those props more than once a year. (Of course, I then have to decorate for May The Fourth, but my Count Down Sign starts now.
Not sure if you set the dirt and pebbles, but an even mix of PVA glue and water in a spray bottle will be thin enough to get out of the nozzle, and will seal in all the wayward friends trying to escape. I thank Studson's Studio for that one- he makes amazing miniatures, and he makes everything out of salvaged materials! Honestly right up your alley. This video was super cute! :)
I don't want a lot for Samhain There is just one thing that I need I don't care about the candies drop'd within the pumpkin bucket I just want thrifted spooky trinkets More than you could ever know Make my wish come true All I want for Samhain are spooky vibes
@@valariebrown3768Mariah Carey’s voice has indeed become a scourge and a plague, I’m there with you Edit: just reading and typing her name was enough to get that infernal, Heaven forsaken song stuck in my head. I now understand why y’all either used her first name only or an acronym.
If Dunkin Donuts and Taco Bell haven't sponsored Rachel yet, I don't know what they think they're doing with their lives. It's effective advertising without even trying. Every time I watch her I just want to go grab some! 😋
Yesterday it was 93° in my city. Today, it was 66° and raining. Fall is here! Rachel, if you read this, I think you should follow the calendar of old. Fall starts September 1st, winter December 1st, spring March 1st, and summer June 1st. Which I think makes way more sense! You and I are akin in that while it might not yet feel like fall during the days. To those of us attuned to nature, we can feel the whisper of crispness in the morning and evening air. And you can just start to smell the promise of falling leaves, decay, and chilly air starting to pepper the day. It's the beginning of fall, and you can sense it if you know where to look.
That little froggy friend is my favorite part - such a friendly little noodle! (Also, thank you for not painting over that ridiculous and wonderful corgi. I love that somebody did that.)
This season, I've already made 3 crafts, planned out my entire Halloween costume, bought pumpkin spice soap, pumpkin spice coffee, and one spooky ghost holding a candy-corn (mug). And now that I see this video.. I *create.*
Fun Fact: The first day of Autumn is actually August 1! September 22 is the Autumn Equinox which is the middle of Autumn! And Samhain (Halloween) being on October 31 is the last day of Autumn -- the last of the harvest festivals, because Winter begins on November 1, (so that way Winter Solstice on December 21 is the middle of Winter). This means that February 1 is the first day of Spring (which is why Groundhogs Day is on Feb 2), Vernal Equinox is on March 22 -- the middle of Spring, and the first day of Summer is on May 1 (Beltane/May Day) with the middle of Summer being Summer Solstice being on June 21!
Celts knew what they were doing. My country has a similar thing as groundhog day but with storks. If you see a stork flying around by Feb 3rd, spring is coming soon.
That makes so much more sense! I always wondered why the "beginning of winter" was mid-December when winter had obviously begun long before that (same with summer). I also love the idea of celebrating the mid point of something; it helps you get over the hump if you're getting bored, and sidesteps the obsession our society has with beginnings and endings rather than celebrating the process.

I went around work all day today saying “it’s September first, summer is dead to me, happy autumn everyone”. Can’t wait for all of the cozy autumn content from the autumn queen herself
The eligibility period for a music contest it happens in Europe every year is September 1st. So the fandom kinda treats it as New Year and we tweet and post a lot of New Year stuff on this day.
How is everything Rachel does so freaking cute? I genuinely want a bat clock now. I thought I'd grown out of the goth phase a decade ago but here we are
"Wreck It Rachel, as they call me on the streets" is one of the funniest things you've ever said. I loved this video! I want to make a little graveyard terrarium.
My 8th grade students and I started making Halloween decorations for our club "Decorating Committee". We save it all up and then hang it up afterschool the last Friday of September. That way Oct. 2nd we get the wow effect! I'm breaking out my Halloween decorations at home too. Rachel, you are an inspiration! 🎃
Rachel I (and I canNOT stress this enough) could watch you making things that aren’t wood look like wood for hours and be perfectly content. Delighted, even
Just for next time…put a pot of water on to boil, turn off heat. Stick your candle in the pot of hot water. Let it sit until it gets melty. Using a plastic fork, dig out candle. You can use the fork to remove wick. I put the candle on parchment paper to cool. Then you could use it as a wax melt. Hope that made sense!😬 Love your projects! 🎃
For me and my household, I go by the meteorological seasons (its science):: Autumn: September, October, November. Winter: December, January, February. Spring: March, April, May. Summer: June, July, August.
This comment is simply to generate more supportive algorithmic interaction because I love your content and how it enhances many morning coffee/cleaning experiences in my life and the skilled creativity and imagination involved deserves it!!
O.k., thanks for this video! I am an elementary school librarian who is planning our fall book fair in the coming months, and I was dismayed to find that Scholastic (the biggest, and oldest book fair vendor) no longer provides decorating themes (with clipart and other printable decor for free) for their book fairs like they used to do! Not that I always used their pre-chosen theme, but some of them were really fun, and now I have to think up everything for myself ... I was looking up different themes that I could realistically do at my school (making and putting up all the decor myself, and paying for it, too), and then realized that our fair is the third week of October. I.e., the week before Halloween! And then I see this video. Perfect! We will have a spooky, Halloween-y, "enchanted forest" theme! Or, whatever I can do with colored paper and put up on the walls ... But the kids *love* Halloween and spooky things, so they should love the vibe!
Hey Rachel! You can suspend your awesome broom using fishing line or any clear line/string you can scoop up. This was a very fun episode! I’m inspired to visit the thrift store and get crafty 🦇
My favorite videos of yours are the ones where you transform thrift store stuff, so I really loved this one. Especially liked the clock and the graveyard terrarium.
I know I don't comment very often, but I would like to say that I absolutely love watching the videos you put out. I love that there are videos ranging from sewing to decoration making to art or craft projects to room makeovers and more. There' always something different and fun happening here. This has been a very rough year for me and this channel has rapidly become my comfort channel. I can just put on a YT mix and just enjoy the chaos for hours on end. Thank you for making all this content for us. There aren't enough words to express my grattute for the good feels and creativity these videos bring me.
@@alittleclareity That's so very kind of you, thank you. I deeply appreciate the good wishes. Things will improve in time. But for now, I take comfort in crafty minds making fun things.
it's raining and cloudy here, so I was fighting the urge to put up my spooky Halloween décor in my room, "too early", but your video opened my eyes, why resist? Thank you sm Rachel
My daughter now wants to be you when she grows up! Thanks for being a positive role model for how to be true to yourself and having fun doing it! When a girl is 13, it's great to show her that it's possible to just be the fun and creative person she wants to be. It's OK to ignore those people that are being "shiddy" (my new fave word).
Honestly... I would be so emotionally attached to that 15 year old aluminum foil... I think it would be very hard for me to throw the cardboard box out... Especially on a mentally weak day! My favorite project was I think the jars, since I love little trinkets where I can put even more little trinkets in!! And... Frog bottoms!
The way you relocated that spider with such grace and poise is something I aspire to. I'd have screamed and high key died if I saw it, but not done anything about it because spiders are important ecologically. ALL HAIL RACHEL THE SPIDER QUEEN!!!
Oh good Im not the only one who's decided its Halloween time XD These all turned out so cute! Also I love the Oogie Boogie and Sally vintage dresses you made in the past, it would be really cool if you continued that series. Maybe a Jack? 🤔
These are the best and most cozy Saturday mornings, because I get to sit down with my coffee to Rachel creating whimsy😍👌🏻 ...also I need a pumpkin mug. Looking for it right now😅
There’s a Mexican restaurant where I live with walls completely covered in beautiful ceramic frogs. I have three little boys who thought the hip joints on the hind legs of the frogs looked like a butt, and they made sure to mention it every time we went. My 4 year old couldn’t ever remember the name of the restaurant, so when he would try to tell us where he wanted to eat, he just started referring to it as Froggy Buns Place. 😂
Another great video as always! Have you read or seen Lockwood and Co.? It has some nice spooky vibes without being downright Halloween and I just love it!
A Rachel Maksey video (A summary) Act 1, Rachel is very excited about her new idea for a project. Act 2, Rachel goes shopping. Act 3, first attempt ends in tears, yes nonetheless she pursues. Act 4, Rachel lays on the floor. Finale: reveal.
Okay, new obsession, I'm going to go thrifting and Halloween up a bunch of stuff. Thanks, Rachel. Also, I don't really plan on packing it away at the end of Spooky Season. I call my general style, Time Traveler Chaos Decor.
First of all we start our Halloween stuff as soon as the fourth of July is over. Second I work at a thrift store and today we started putting out all the Halloween stuff. Third all of these projects turned out so very awwdorable. Loved the little frog. The clock was amazing as was your mini broom. And the terrarium was rather spookily cute.
Am i the only one that thought to make a little floor troll to hold the broom with one of those tall kids dolls? Just me? Lol ❤❤❤ I love watching Rachel at lunch at work. Best night of the week❤❤❤
13:08 that is a dog show award. I am assuming those letters on the top are the name of the corgi club and select is what catagory it won. I only know this because my mother shows Chinese Cresteds and we get some weird and random things as prizes. I have several silver antique looking percolators/coffee carafes/pots. What a random thing to find at a thrift store. I love that you were able to recycle it.
Where I live you can smell the cow manure from the county over once the fog starts lifting from the fields around this time. That _Screams_ Autumn to us. And after how hot it's been here, that first morning was like a spiritual awakening. I'm already baking pumpkin pies, making cinnamon cookies, and dreaming of all the wonderful things I can do once it gets below 100. Your little 'Halloween!' gremlin lives rent free in my brain
I quoted you today. " "Today is not a great mental health day so what do we do to fight existential dread? We wear Halloween themed items and secret pants and make little froggy friends." Absolute GOLD.
You should mount the broom with a plaque that says 'Witch's 1st Broom'.
Yaaassssss 🎉❤
Thats a super cute idea. Gives it a story for being so small. That's endearing as heck.
im obsessed with this comment, i truly hope rachel does this

These are the best and most cozy Saturday mornings, because I get to sit down with my coffee to Rachel creating whimsy😍👌🏻
...also I need a pumpkin mug. Looking for it right now😅
It's the start of Spooky time!! 👻 🎃 Thank you for helping us celebrate the season.
There’s a Mexican restaurant where I live with walls completely covered in beautiful ceramic frogs. I have three little boys who thought the hip joints on the hind legs of the frogs looked like a butt, and they made sure to mention it every time we went. My 4 year old couldn’t ever remember the name of the restaurant, so when he would try to tell us where he wanted to eat, he just started referring to it as Froggy Buns Place. 😂
Another great video as always! Have you read or seen Lockwood and Co.? It has some nice spooky vibes without being downright Halloween and I just love it!
these are amazing and so much work went into them plus the final shots!! actually putting me into a fall mood :)
Cozy spooky craft time!
That broom flying sequence tho 👏
The frog queen lives! 👏🐸 these were all so cute, hurray for Halloween season! 🎉
16:35 is such a vibe
A Rachel Maksey video (A summary)
Act 1, Rachel is very excited about her new idea for a project.
Act 2, Rachel goes shopping.
Act 3, first attempt ends in tears, yes nonetheless she pursues.
Act 4, Rachel lays on the floor.
Finale: reveal.
Okay, new obsession, I'm going to go thrifting and Halloween up a bunch of stuff. Thanks, Rachel. Also, I don't really plan on packing it away at the end of Spooky Season. I call my general style, Time Traveler Chaos Decor.
First of all we start our Halloween stuff as soon as the fourth of July is over. Second I work at a thrift store and today we started putting out all the Halloween stuff. Third all of these projects turned out so very awwdorable. Loved the little frog. The clock was amazing as was your mini broom. And the terrarium was rather spookily cute.
That clock looks awesome
IT’S TIME FOR HALLOWEEN RACHEL!!! BEST TIME OF THE YEAR I SWEAR 🧡🍂
i love you rachel!! 🫶
The drybrushing on the clock really makes the details pop ESPECIALLY under the spooky lighting! Well done! :)
Did anybody make bets on Rachel making a cozy season video, the first day of Sept? Pretty sure we're all winners 🤣
Rachel, I'm case you didn't know --- WE FRIGGIN LOVE YOU 🦇🎃🕷️🕸️🧛⚰️🌕🧹🕰️🥰
So cute! I may have to do these! Also HAPPY BACK TO HOGWARTS DAY! Youre so lucky lol. I wish i lived somewhere with seasons
Am i the only one that thought to make a little floor troll to hold the broom with one of those tall kids dolls? Just me? Lol ❤❤❤ I love watching Rachel at lunch at work. Best night of the week❤❤❤
13:08 that is a dog show award. I am assuming those letters on the top are the name of the corgi club and select is what catagory it won. I only know this because my mother shows Chinese Cresteds and we get some weird and random things as prizes. I have several silver antique looking percolators/coffee carafes/pots.
What a random thing to find at a thrift store. I love that you were able to recycle it.
Things just got SCHOLASTIC has gotta be one of my favorite Rachel Maksy quotes
Where I live you can smell the cow manure from the county over once the fog starts lifting from the fields around this time. That _Screams_ Autumn to us. And after how hot it's been here, that first morning was like a spiritual awakening. I'm already baking pumpkin pies, making cinnamon cookies, and dreaming of all the wonderful things I can do once it gets below 100. Your little 'Halloween!' gremlin lives rent free in my brain
8:32 THAT'S GENIUS because all the extra little glue strings will just look like loose webbing, so you don't even have to get rid of them
:O
For apoxie sculpt i use vaseline instead of water and it helps to make things really smooth and not sticky!
I quoted you today. " "Today is not a great mental health day so what do we do to fight existential dread? We wear Halloween themed items and secret pants and make little froggy friends." Absolute GOLD.
I'm absolutely in LOVE with the little terarium! So spooky yet so tiny...
