Transforming Old Clothes In My Closet | Coolirpa
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 жов 2024
- If years have passed and you still haven't worn some clothes in your closet, it's time to give them a new life! Instead of donating mine and buying new clothes, I decided to just change up what I already owned to SAVE MONEY and have a NEW wardrobe. Hope you enjoy :) #diyfashion #reuse #coolirpa

Do i know how to sew? No.
Will i ever learn to sew? Also no.
BUT HERE I AM. IN LOVE WITH YOUR VIDEOS. 😂
ValUsc Right! Same here
You can!
TOWANDA the STYLIST
You can!
🤣🤣Right?!
I can't sew but my seamstress is reasonable
Would love to see a video with some of your failed projects, and maybe watch you redo it
So funny, I agree. I am learning to sew and one of my friends was making a bag that didn't act right, she just cut away a little of this, adjusted a little of that and to see that was so liberating lol It let me know that mistakes don't have to be permanent, you can make some cool things from the mistakes.
You are so frugal with your fabric. No waste! Love it!
I am just addicted to watching these, it gives me this sudden creative boost and I love it.
I can’t do anything with that creativity, but it’s there!
The pants from Thailand look so comfortable!
Randi Johnson they are 😍 I love them!
Randi Johnson omg they are!!!
Harempants.com
Have a variety of them but I’m sure you pay find some cheaper someone else - maybe
Im from Thailand. I really dont like them but my husband from the US has bought 3 because the guy likes it so much
You should make videos of going into other people's closets and transforming clothes they want to get rid of into something fresh.
Paul G Web series idea!!
Like a sewing What Not to Wear 😂
good idea❤❤
I would sign up for that series in a heart beat
You are very skilful; I love the way you just pick up the fabric & sew, without pinning or tacking - just the way I do it (except it works for you!)
Thank you for that final unobstructed shot of everything you made!
Love it! I keep seeing adds for these wrap dresses that you loop around one shoulder, wrap it around & loop it over the other. I thought, maybe you could make them out of old sheets from the thrift store with funky patterns? If you could make some as a test run, that would be awesome!
Buying old sheets from the thrift store is NEVER a good idea unless they're in an unopened package
I love this channel. While my tailoring skills are minimal, I have successfully altered 4 tees and shirts from the enthusiasm and great instructions on these videos. Thank you!
Love the transformations; the finished items all look delightful and flattering on you! I must say that those pants - and the way you've styled them with the shirt - I love the most! Talk about both stylish and comfortable...and something my 53-y.o. self could wear.
I also just want to thank you for all these videos - since finding your channel, and a couple of others - I've been inspired to do more sewing and specifically, modifying or completely re-purposing both thrift store clothes and those from my own wardrobe. Keep up the great work!
Looks like some up-cycling tips for unwanted clothes, or to modify your existing wardrobe.
So glad you could make those pants work, you can tell they are gorgeous
Pretty blouse. Your so talented and creative.
All 3 came out great
I wish plus sized creators made videos like yours. Not that your vidoes arent great id just love to see someome revamp plus size clothes like you do.
It would be the same process but maybe focusing more on the support but the cuts would be similar.
Same! Always struggling in finding plus size diy videos!:(
Sooooo good. And glad you kept the floral fabrick. It is a great design!!
Girl this gave me marge simpson vibes. Remember that episode when she gets that really expensive pink suit and keeps tailoring and altering it to other pieces. Love your creations!!!
Minjee YES
So much creative!
OMG THE LOOP TURNER! I didn't know such a tool existed. Stoked!
Look at that gorgeous Diamond 💍! So happy for you !!!
That top you made with the extra fabric was so cute and such a good idea!.
Great idea
Can you do a UA-cam video on transforming rompers into different styles. Absolutely love your channel
i love those pants!
You are awesome! I can sew darn well but I feel like a novice when I watch your vids. Sew creative and skilled you are.
I had to compliment in your videos, it’s crazy amazing and just made me very relaxed and all believe in creativity and skills. Thank you really needed it. Over all your tutorial video is very therapeutic to me. For someone who wants to make use of free time, your guidance is amazing.❤️🤘🏼
I love the thai pants!!
Love your videos! I happen to notice the beautiful ring...are you engaged?
Yes she engaged to her boyfriend Eric !❤❤
Donnina Jones lol you guessed her next video
Thank you, thank you, thank you! It was like you read my mind, I've been searching & searching for current diy transformation videos and you came THROUGH!
Glad youre back to sewing!
OMG the third one is so cute!!!
Love the floral top 😍 i wish i have a magic hand like yours 😩
Shawmila Army Me to 💗
You can start practicing if you have a barbie doll..
Whats it called?
Love it!!! So creative!💓 I cannot wait to start sewing again.
Love the way you transform your clothes. Thanks for the try on girl.
The last two tops where so cute but I think if you made that dress into a two piece set if would have been cuter
You inspire me.
Just WOW! I love how you look at an item and see what it can be and then make it happen. Love it! Bravo! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤❤❤
Thank you! :D
Really very cute and simple ideas. Great video! 👍👍
I love these types of videos!! It’s good to find ways of renewing old clothes rather than buying new ones!
Great transformations! Great ideas! Great job! So beautiful :)
SO TALENTED!!! One dress turned into two tops...great idea!!!
Beautiful and Smart you are April 👍🏼👍🏼👌🏼👌🏼👏🏼👏🏼❤️❤️🥰🥰😁
loamda27 Yes she is 💗
Loving this . April you are a girl after my own ❤️ . Got my videos going on here on UA-cam . Half my wardrobe has been altered to fit better . Thrifting Addict , it’s my thing too . Cheers 😊💞💞
I need to learn how to sew!!
Hello, can you please make a video showing how to undo the stitches? When you separate the top and the bottom of the pinky floral dress.
Those pants!
Wow! The first diy is such a great idea. 😁✨ It’s so simple and easy. I have a dress that has a high neck too and I notice I don’t wear it as much either but it’s too cute to get rid of. Thanks for the video! 💕
Kate I know right! Thanks for watching ❤️❤️☺️
Love these transformations 💙 especially the LBD 💋👗 such good ideas
i wish i can sew as great n wonderful like u. been enjoying your video
Does anyone else notice how PERFECT her body is?
I really love how you transformed 1 into 2
If you add elastic to the back of the tank top it will help keep it on
I prefer the background music used on this channel more than the goofy ones used on bigger channels tbh.
Thanks for the inspiration. I tried flipping my tank into a cold shoulder crop but the fabric was stretchy and my machine hated it. How many times have you messed up or years has it taken you to know how to approach different fabrics?
I love your videos. Also for make over for dress i hope i'm kind that person.
This is amazing!! LOVE LOVE LOVE your vids April!!! 💞
Love your videos :D. I'm curious as to how you started sewing / where you picked it up from though?
So many inspiration through this video the only problem is I don’t know how to sew
Nahida Rayyan sheikh withwendy has some really good what you need to get started videos.
Love it❤️❤️❤️
A way to fix the problem with the second one.
Just get fatter.
Nella's Hella Here or pregnant
👀👀
That top would look cuite with a peplum
Damn.... I need to learn how to sew!
I've got a closet full of old clothes, and I'm losing weight, so this is going to happen.
u are so talented!
That moment when you actually have an outfit similar and you wanted to do something new to it
Love all your transformations . The floral fabric used for the last 2 is especially pretty ... Glad you repurposed it for 2 different tops...You are the cutest !! Thanks for all your fabulous ideas !!!
Awesome! Love this video, your so talented & Inspiring 💗
That video was so helpful love thanks 💕
Hello, your page has encouraged me to pursue my dream of becoming a fashion designer so,,, thanks for that :) Do you think you could turn jean pants into a jean jacket? Transformation challenge? Hope you see this!
Bellos todos
Wait I just realized what her channel name is. I just found her channel so if this was already stated just ignore me but...it’s cool and the April spelled backwards but minus an “L”
I love your fashion designs.💕💕
Brown sugar Doll Yes me to 💗
Munde bagunnai cut chesi chedagotuutunnaru
Do more of this 😍
Omg you should do a “failed thrift flips” video! I think it would just be funny to see if you’ve had any disasters throughout thrift flipping so many things
U are awesomeeeee
Awsome 👌👌
I love the floral tank!!! It came out so cute 😍😍😍 thank you for sharing your great ideas! ❤️ we love them!
I lub this so much :)
Going over and over the loose Thai pants.. I do NOT get it.. I don't understand. Was the waistband FULLY elasticized, or did they have area on the waistband that contained no elastic? Help, please!
Not to be rude but these are not transformations they are just upgrades. Transformations would be like making a dress out of an ugly men’s shirt or something like that.
2 shirts from one garment. A headband from the scraps! 😉👍💖
Hide the wire underneath your shirt for professionnal look!
omg I love these 😍😍😍😍 keep up the amazing videos April! ❤
Thank you :)
i love this concept! With the garbage that's ending up in our landfills; it's a great idea to give clothes in our own closet a second life.
The second top looked big on you.
I love this grate ways to up cycle old clothes good job April also your a awesome role model you have inspired me to get of my butt and sew.
something off about that first refashion. the alignment of the chest/underarm area was wonky but 3 out of 4 ain't bad; especially when the remaining 3 were so amazing!
Great ideas! Love the designs, and so informative.
Love The pants! Anywhere I can find them online?
Can you show us how to make a romper or jumpsuit, that would be so cool!
This is wonderful! So environmentally sustainable to alter the clothes you already own instead of promoting fast fashion and tossing away clothes you no longer like! Bravo!
Loves all your ideas. Can I have you as my sister...? :)
julesjules IKR
Is there are specific name for the mannequin you use to shape your clothing?
In her previous video she mentioned that it’s a dress form. Idk the specific kind though. Hope this helps!
What is the bottom of the shirt after you seem at the waist already surged or did you have to finish the bottom edge
What do you call that stick you used to turnover the strap at 6:55?
Love your videos. Just wish the duct tape dress form works. I found it to be annoying and does not work for my daughter.
Love your videos!
For marking the cloth with soap....What i like to do is wash hands with a bar of soap for a long time, each time palms together to make the soap into a very thin oval with sharp edges(dont know if that made sense) and use that to mark things. Easier than using a huge bar.
Ps! Congrats on the engagement!!!
The high neckline has a more sophisticated look than the lower one. I liked the higher neckline on you better than the lower one.
I love your channel. I’ve learned so much from you after just watching two videos. I can tell you right now that this is going to be my favorite channel. TFS
