Sewing A FLORAL WITCH'S HAT & More Pinterest Craft Ideas (BPC40)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 вер 2024
- So for today's Blind Pinterest Challenge I'm sewing a floral witch's hat as well as attempting a bunch of other craft ideas I found on Pinterest! And honestly this episode was rough! I really struggled hard at sewing this floral witch's hat, I feel like I was far too ambitious, and far too confident in my sewing machine abilities, however I will return one day to sewing a witch's hat and it'll be the best witch's hat anyone has ever seen! I also struggled quite a bit with the incense holder, and also the resin keychain letters... I think the only Pinterest craft idea that I actually did well was the rubber duck, and that was literally just hot gluing stuff to a duck! So yeah definitely a bit of a rough episode, but let me know what your thoughts were on today's craft projects, and let me know whether you'll be attempting sewing a floral witch's hat...if you so try to find a witch's hat pattern, it'll save you a lot of grief!!

Well this episode was quite the struggle! 😑😑
You were on the right path with the witches hat, if you'd have cut one of the doughnut rings to the middle and sewn them inside out then reversed it, done the same with the cardboard and hand sewn the brim after it would have helped and maybe looking at a circle skirt pattern would have helped you make the hat, and if you'd left room on the doughnut cardboard shape, then you were there.
It's only three things, I hope you do try it again and make your vision a reality
@@AnthonyCrammen You’re supposed to cut off the white edge and the fringe. Those keep the fabric from fraying during the manufacturing process.
The Duck looks really cute, the incense burning was great for a 1st attempt. If you put the foil in the resin before you pour it, it will make less mess and be a little more controlled. The witches Hat, nuff said
My dearest Anthony, I love watching your videos, they never fail to make me smile. I’m stuck in a hospital bed at home with an open wound at the moment. At night it’s a nice cuppa and settle down to watch one or two of your videos, my favourite time of day. Keep doing what you do my lovely, you are a tonic ❤❤❤
Ah thanks Sarah, and sorry to hear you're in the hospital! I hope you're having a wonderful recovery! 😊
Its so good to see real crafting warts and all (no pun intended with the witch's hat.) i share your pain and frustration
😂😂😂 a hat needs to be added to the wheel! ❤❤
Yes, we need revenge crafting! 🙌 The witch's hat would be a great project to do again with correct instructions (& materials -- even a buckram would help a lot). The flower pattern was great tho, flowery hat is an excellent everyday summer hat!
Entertaining as always. 👌
I love that you show the fails in your videos, because when I screw something up while doing art and craft I don’t feel as annoyed at myself as I used to.
Btw the little duck was adorable🥰
Oh I couldn't hide them, I'd feel too naughty 😅😅 Ah and thanks! 🦆🦆😁😁
OMG 😂😂😂😂 that bloody witches hat has got tears running down my face....so funny
😆😆
oh Ant.... I've been sewing about 35 years when I gave it up and even I struggled with a witches hat WITH A PATTERN to use! LOL Coat hanger wire makes it all so much easier to hold the brim out and holding the point up. :) That ducky is ADORABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Haha yeah it was a little trickier than I had thought 😅😅
I LOVE that lip incense holder and the duckie so much!!!
Ah thanks! 😊😊
I love and live for your vids always but I'm bout to start a protest cause you should have way more subs than you do and that's a fact.
People going viral for the most minute dumbest things nowadays but I digress you'll get to a million subscribers one day I can bet my life savings on that your channel is one of the best out there no kidding..love you my brother keep up the awesome work Anthony❤🎉
Aww thank you! 🥰🥰
Soo for the witches Hat, you need to put a layer of self stick or iron on fabric strenghtener in between the two layers, sadly i don't know what it is called in english, but is is usually a whiteish, stiff fleece of some kind. Like the batting for quilts, but thinner. You can actually sow over that! Also for the cone shape you need a rather large slice of a circle with the curve bigger than your head circumference, then it'll work out! And maybe next time, try around with scrap paper first before cutting things out of fabric, always helps me to get an idea where I have to go! The rubber ducky rules tho. Absolutely made my day better!
Absolutely LOVED that duck!! That turned out amazing. Love how you soldier on with projects that are going frustratingly and you seem to be so level headed about it. Wish I could be like that when a craft project goes wrong. As always, you are a delight to watch!
😊😊
Hiya! Witches hats or any hat that require stiffness is quite difficult without the right tools. There is a type of stiff fabric you can fuse to the fabric to make it more stiff and I think you would have to use some form of that to make it more ridgid. Otherwise, and I know you've tried it before, wet felting is probably the easiest/most effective way to make a cool witches hat. There are plenty of tutorials for it on youtube and they look amazing! Loved the video though :)
Love your duckie! He totally reflects your personality. Sewing is super tough, no question. Maybe if you try again, consider using some interfacing to give your fabric some stability. Should make it more shapeable :)
Structured hats are one if the most difficult things to make without specialized materials. But big kudos on the duck!!! And the in sense burner was damned good too!!!! Love your videos!!!
Ah thank you! 😊😊
This is how I feel after almost every craft, joys of a perfectionist 😂😂
The ducky was cute though 😍 I didn't realise pompoms were that easy!
Haha! Oh pompoms are soooo easy to make! If I can make them anyone can! 🤣🤣
I want the “B” keychain!!!!!! It’s so cute tho
Maybe putting the silver leaf in first? 🤔 I don't know, not used resin before but it doesn't look that bad 👏🏻👍🏻😃
They're ducking good 👏🏻👍🏻😃🐥
Oooo saucy!!! 😂
It's not to bad Ant 👏🏻👍🏻😃💋
I can't wait to see you make your own t-shirts 👍🏻😃👕
Awwww ... maybe should of done a circle and stitched/glued it, then stuffed it 🧙♀️🤔 bless good try 👏🏻👍🏻😃🤗🥰
yeah i agree that we need a redemption of the witch hat lol, specially since the one you referenced looked like it would link to a tutorial(judging by the pin title). Would love to see more ducks too, what a simple but really neat craft idea. Can really take it in any cool or cute direction, and go as detailed and simple as ya want and it would still look good xD. Ducks seem to be a great foundation lol. I imagine too that the original crafters also struggled this much when figuring all this out, definitely took many iterations.
Hi Ant! Great to see another episode of the Pinterest challenge! I think you did really well with the things that you chose to make up until that poor witches hat. The keychain looked absolutely fabulous and very classy. The little duck was just awesome 🤩 I have to admit I was a little worried you might go too far and ruin it, but you managed to stop just at the right moment and have created one funky little ducky. I really liked your incense tray, I thought it looked great. And as for your witches hat, well we live and learn darling. A sheet of thin plastic material inside the rim might have worked a little better. And probably you would need the same for the cone part of the hat. You can buy something that stiffens fabric, you iron it on, but I don’t know what it’s called. As a rule upholstery fabric is usually a little heavier than a regular cotton fabric and sometimes has a white backing to it. I guess the extra heavy weight allows it to take more wear and tear over time. Anyway, please don’t feel dejected, I think you did a great job as you always do with the Pinterest challenge. There aren’t many people I know who would try to make things with no instructions and I find it quite inspiring that you do! ❤ I’m sending you a big Aussie hug to cheer you up. Us VIOs have to stick together! ❤
Ah thanks Lynne! 😊😊
That wiggy duck 😍😍😍
😁😁
I love what you did. I think with the witches hat they may not have sewn it they may have just glued it.
Ah thanks Alexis! 😊😊
I think you’re ready to make a shirt! If you could make that bag I think a t-shirt will be a similar difficulty level, but I don’t sew so I’m not sure, ooo also a bucket hat could be cute!
Hey Ant, thanks for bringing us BPC Number 40!! You definitely made the cutest duck in history!! 🥳🥳 Perhaps you could attach a ribbon to the witch's hat and use it as an Easter bonnet instead?? 🤣🤣
Ah no problem! 😁😁 Haha I kinda love him! Oh I think there's no rescuing it at all! Could barely balance it on my head! 😆😆
@@AnthonyCrammen Aw, you should certainly be proud of your little duck! 😁 Hopefully your weekend is going nice and smoothly so far, and hopefully free of witch's hats.. 🤣🤣
@kingmerry10 Oh it is indeed! Hope you're having a lovely weekend too! 😊😊
Hi! First off i actually liked the resin letters. I’d buy one. The duck I agree is a giant win! The hat? Very difficult even with a pattern, but I think you could make a t-shirt with a pattern thats your size. If you can make that beauty of a tote bag, you can make a t-shirt. BUT use stretchy fabric for it. That’s a must. Lips dish? You can sand the edges and wrinkles to be smooth and even after it dries. Give that a try. Keep up the good work! Lova ya!
Ah thanks Colette! 😁😁 Yeah I definitely think I can do a t-shirt now, last time I tried it was 100% the fabric I chose 😅😅
I can't remember how I even got here but I've been watching your videos every week for a while now 😂 you've made it into my Friday routine and I really look forward to the next one :)
😊😊😊
You did so great on the hat!! That fabric is gorgeous! I wanted it to work for you, I rooting for you the whole way!!! I love you!! ❤❤❤❤❤
Ah thank you! 😊😊
Ant, another great attempt at doing things other people require instructions to accomplish. I love, love, loved your cool dude of a duck, giving him that necklace was a good idea. In fact I think your duck was actually way cuter and cooler than the inspiration picture. The other items were ok but yes, that hat beat you this time. Being fair, I know how to use a sewing machine and I wouldn't have been able to make it either, even with a pattern, so I'm not surprised you struggled! I think you were brave to even try a complicated design like that.
Ah thanks Carly! 😁😁
The material you got is fab! I thought you were brave making the hat with no pattern, but you’ll get there and you do rock a witch’s hat 🤩
Also my Great Aunty Pat use to tell me put that incense out it’s giving me a headache 😂 Cracked me up hearing you say it!!!
It was well nice wasn't it, think I might have enough left to attempt a tshirt at some point 😅 Haha!! It does! Felt well old 👴👴🤣🤣
I really loved your duck, and the incense holder really did look pretty good. The witch hat looks hard to make, so at least you were able to make something. I think if you put a Styrofoam cone in it to give it some volume, it would look better.
Ah thanks Heidi! 😁😁 Oh it was a bit of a struggle 😅😅
Use iron interfacing on the fabric for the hat, or florist’s wire I the seam of the hat xxx
Oh good tips! 😁😁
You should make a flip book. Andymation has great videos on how to make them.
Oh that could be fun! 😁
love me some weekly anthony video :) that hat made me laugh, i hope you give it a second shot tho, it looks like a cool craft idea :D
😁😁 Oh definitely think I'll try it again at some point and it'll look way better 😅😅
Love this😂😂😂❤
The gifs you throw in are hilarious. The laughing hoarding woman (I like yo say I'm not a hoarder, I'm an artist, all of this 'trash' is useful 😂). And the celine dion one. My brain does that all the time, if I hear someone say "it seems to me" my brain stops listening to the person and plays "it seems to me you lived your life like a candle in the wind" candle in the wind by Elton John lol.
Btw I'm audhd (autistic and adhd) and any of the struggles and things uou talk about are similar to the symptoms that I have that are related to being audhd. I'm not a dr and don't want to disgnose or insult you. But I'm 29 and have joined a lot of Facebook groups of people who have ADHD and autism, and being in those groups and hearing the things that people talk about is the first time I've ever actually felt like I belonged somewhere in my life, and I feel like it's that way for a lot of people with ADHD and or autism.
So I'm not trying to insult you when I say you seem like you have ADHD, I want you to know that there is a group of us and that you can feel safe with people who have ADHD and autism. Maybe look into adhd yourself, online.
ADHD and autism aren't very well studied and and doctors and psychiatrists aren't really equipped with helping people with those issues. It wasn't until 2013 that drs realized someone can have ADHD and autism at the same time. When I looked into the autism diagnosis I realized that's exactly who I am, my trex arms, my dark humor, my outside of the box thinking. There's also negative things that come with it, but having those Facebook groups I have people who literally understand and don't just dismiss people's feelings like people who aren't like me do.
So if I have insulted you with what I said I am very sorry, I just want you to know that there is a whole other neurodivergent world that understands us better than the rest of the world (neurotypicals) does. And it's a safe place....most of the time. Another autistic trait is being very trusting and open with everyone. I callthat side of me 'over sharing Sharon' 😂😂😂😂. All the years of counseling I (and many other audhd people) had they were trying to fix me, trying to get rid of certain behaviors. But I've learned that those behaviors are who I am and they will never go away, we have to learn how to live with this crazy brain and live in a world that was built for 'normal' people. Again I am sorry if I have insulted you, and I'm sorry for my TED talk 😂. Also there's a connection between queer people and autism.
Haha no insult taken don't worry. I wouldn't be surprised if I was somewhere on the spectrum however I'm not too fussed with getting an official diagnosis etc. I just see it as I am who I am if that makes sense. I do learn/pick things up differently and I get that other people do it their own way and may find my way weird, but it works and I prefer it lol. But yeah, just happy living in my own little world 😅😅
0:36 Personally I quite like Colin Firth!
LOLOLOLOL You know I love you but this was hilarious :) You could maybe try an iron on fusible material or coat it with mod podge to make it stand up :)
😅😅
Just need a bit of uv resin to cover the top of the letter key chain to smooth it out. You forgot about sewing right sides together. And you need fusible interfacing. It stiffens the fabric to hold it up.
Sorry about your attempt at the wirches hat. I love the fabric! I'm sure you'd be right if you had a pattern, even if you made a mini version yourself out of paper. Hint: the pointy bit is a cone.🍦
❤❤❤
😊😊
I love how brave you are to try to teach yourself sewing. I'm just sad because it is obviously so frustrating for you. I'm afraid you will waste so much time, energy, and money trying to get there, that you will give up, and that makes ME sad because I love sewing so much! Will you please at least consider looking at some basic stuff on line? and you CAN NOT make t-shirts out of woven fabrics. you can only make t-shirts out of knit fabrics - which you would know if you reviewed some basic terms! I love you ANT and I just want you to succeed and grow to love sewing as much as I do!
Oh I enjoy the learning process I'm on, like I've always said I struggle to pay attention with instructions etc. Guess I have my own way of learning which I'm really enjoying. If I did do lessons etc you're more likely to see me give up with it as I think I'd get bored lol 😅
@@AnthonyCrammen Of course you know your own process best! I wish you all the luck and keep trying and making videos I love them SSSSSOOOOOOO MUCH!!!! I agree with TruthBtold999 that you should have WAY more subs - what is wrong with people? You are so entertaining!!!
rip the floral witches hat ;_;
😭😭
