How does one look at a curtain and think, "this would be a nice dress!"
By thinking outside the box and being creative. Have you seen gone with the wind?
Renesmee908 creative people......God.......
its just material really
Ask Scarlett O'Hara
Maria. (Sound of music)
"And who are you wearing?"
My curtain.
Valco poopy
Valco lMao
hahaha
Valco I
Scarlett O'Hara
Rhett:" Why Scarlett that's a lovely dress you're wearing."
Scarlett:"Thank you kindly Rhett. I saw it in the window and just had to have it!"
Omg this comment! 🤣🤣😂😂😂
Gone with the wind!!! Haha
Was coming here to post this. 👍
This comment won 🏆
As I was reading the title of this video, my mind immediately wandered off to Gone With The Wind.
I love the novel so damn much, and your comment. ❤
This reminds me of Enchanted when Giselle makes her dresses out of curtains and rugs 😂
OMG please, please please do a video where you show us everything in your wardrobe that you´ve made!
Why hasnt she done one
+
By Matilta she should do that for the 100th episode
Yesssss!
yessssss that definitely needs to happen
Who else thought the dress gave off a Sailor Moon vibe? 🌙😍
LOL ME ONCE THE BODICE WAS CONSTRUCTED
Yes!!!
Laura Nano-Vargas yaaaaas girl!
Laura Nano-Vargas I was thinking the same thing!!!
Laura Nano-Vargas YaSS
"Doth mother know you weareth her drapes?"
Nick Michaels OML YES
Nick Michaels lol
😂😂😂
I literally had the same thought and comment.
Tony... We love you 3000
"OMG, WHERE DID YOU GET THAT DRESS!?"
"Target"
Goes to Target*
"Where is it!?"
points at curtain* 😅
Enchanted, anyone?
Nyan Hv yes XD
Nyan Hv yup lol
Nyan Hv the dress from curtain thing in Enchanted was based off of Gone With the Wind
Nyan Hv oh, right XD
abstractartist23 ... And I was thinking Sound of Music.
"I don't have anything to wear"
-Things April never says
Ushma Asher even if she did have nothing to wear she'd just walk outside, grab a passerby's umbrella and make a dress
lmao this comment ☝ 😂😂😂
Ushma Asher she could literally wear anything
yes, she's that good👍😊👍😊
she can wear her curtain
That dress is soo pretty!💖 I would totally buy that!!😄🙏
Periwinkle ! Don't buy it. .DO it
You should do a thrifted transformation of a wedding dress 👗
This black and blue dress is beautiful!!!
Raven Skymaven omg hahahaha!
best comment
Raven Skymaven
It's white and gold? bullshit
Raven Skymaven omg this comment have me dieing
For a second, I actually thought it was black and blue 😂
You make a complete dress using a curtain and i can't even fix the hole in my sock😭
Salma XxX who fixes holes in socks lol.
Salma XxX have you heard the song: hole in my pocket stone in my shoe ...😂😆
gwen wait! you sharpy your skin to blend with the sock
Timothy swan omg hahha
hhhhhhhh
young lady you're amazing!! I'm a seamstress and can't come out with half of what you do. and who the heck is not liking this videos
Do project runway!!!
Whilst everyone admires your talent, I'm going to admire your discipline in the first place. While you are incredibly talented, it just strikes me how much work goes into the things that you're making and with what consistency and creativity you work on your projects!
Your videos really make me want to give sewing a shot. Love this dress!
kelaex agreed! She also must have an awesome support system cause while this does pay it's not a crazy amount, for how much time she spends working on a single video. 😃😃
I agree.
Gotten so used to you wearing the old piece of clothing when you're showing the 'before' part near the end of your videos. I found it hilarious when this time around it was just you recording a curtain haha! great video x
KaiTSANGASONG omg youre hereee i like your cover videos. :D
OOTD (outfit of the day) :
"Well I got this curtain from savers"
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Person: Who’s your style inspiration?
Me: My window.
Person: Excuse me?
Me: My window. I’m wearing a curtain. My window wears a curtain.
Person: ...
Me: you asked.
nah you have to and a Welp...YoU AsKeD My DuDe
Lol wth
I made an skirt and cami set from a bedsheet once. I wore it to a club and some girls in the restroom said it looked like their mom's sheets. Never recycled again.
It looks spectacular & you are amazing! 👗
@@mcjohnsonsgirl it depends on the fabric. Personally I don't understand "recycling" sheets for one reason: if it's that worn out, how can it be a good clothing piece? And if it's not worn out, why it needs "recycling"? By definition bedding doesn't need to be in better shape than clothes you wear...
At least curtains technically don't get much "wear"
Can you do beginner learning series please with teaching different sewing seams, how to sew with certain fabrics, and easy patterns
Yes please do this
Elizabeth Zucker yessss
Great idea, online sewing classes! Teach everybody what you learned in your classes, and you can make money doing it too.
I'd even appreciate tips for sewing with different fabrics. Organza us beautiful but I hate hate hate sewing with it.
Yessss that would be so awesome!!
ACTUAL QUEEN 💛💛💛😍
Annika Victoria, You and Coolirpa are my goals. Bought a simple sewing machine last month, but I'm too chicken to buy some fabric and start.
Leah Beck you can do it😊
Annika Victoria Or perhaps you could say... QUEEN OF THE SEWING MACHINE.
But for real you both are goals. 😤😍
Annika Victoria GODDESS
You are a QUEEN too ❤❤❤
I honor your work because I absolutely do not have the patience
*looks around for things in her house to transform*
It reminds me of Beauty and the beast :D
Rosa Nouch I thought the same thing!
Rosa Nouch I was just scrolling through the comments to see if somebody else was gonna say this!!
same
Rosa Nouch ,me too glad someone finally mentioned it
I saw you wearing a shower cap on your head.. did you color your hair while making this dress?? Girl you have balls for doing that! I would get color all over that dress!!
That is the sweetest little dress ever! You are a mad genius. Love love love!!!!!
It is even prettier than the one Scarlett O'Hara made with her curtain, what an incredible and magical work of art!
You're so talented
Girl you blow my mind you're so freaking creative! 😍😍😍
that's a nice black and blue dress :3
Gabriela Beato 😄👍🏻
You're the god of sewing. I bow to you're stitching.
Anyone else think of the Sound of Music? :) Great job!
Amanda Williamson wonder how long it took her to make 6 outfits from curtains..hmm..
ShinyEvenWonderღ shoot and she made one for herself too, right? geesh I bet it took a whole lot longer than that song lets on! 😉
This girl is a freaking wizard!!! 😲😲 what is this sorcery? This is an amazing transformation. You have amazing talent. Keep reaching for your goals.
That curtain panel never knew what was coming. Excellent work, April! You're an inspiration.
Because of your creations I actually ask my mom if she could buy me a mini sewing machine for a start. :)) I've been designing dresses for 1 and a half year now but still don't know how to sew them. My boyfriend's mom does it for me twice now. I wanna do it my own. The dress I am wearing in my photo is my design. this dress is backless.
The bodice is absolutely stunning but there's something off about the shape and length of the skirt...
Cassidy Marsh yes its very pretty but it reminds me of a dress a little girl would wear, like a flower girl or to a school dance
I think maybe wearing heels with it would help, but they are so uncomfortable I wouldn't recommend that to her!
Cassidy Marsh I love it, I would totally wear it!
its just her height, with heels it will look a lot better with the added height
I agree. It's a pretty dress but the length of the skirt is a bit awkward
Wow!!!
This transformation is unbelieveable!!!
Gold and white are my favorite colors and the length is beautiful.
A pair of rockin heels would totally make it look even more incredible.
this is some Disney's Enchanted skills right here. lmao
People like her honestly blow my mind. Like honestly - the talent and creativity and artistic capabilities of Human beings restores my faith in humanity. Girl you are AWESOME
I've been watching these from the start. can't believe it's the 50th episode already
Regina Best exactly. time flies so faaaaast
This reminds me of the movie Enchanted when she made her dress out of living room curtains. Beautiful!
You are amazing. I'm a 60 yr old woman sewing since I was 12 and you are just pure awesomeness
Congrats, April, on your 50th! Your imagination and talent are truly awe-inspiring.
Thrifted transformations should really be a TV Show
this girl can probably transform my rug into a prom dress
The only thing more magnificent than that dress is that place you're walking thru!!!! Excellent!!
i kind of like that this tutorial is 'all over the place.' it just makes it more impressive by highlighting how incredibly creative she is to make these incredible pieces within the limitations of limited fabric and making up designs as she goes along
You really need your own tv show. Everyone needs to know about this!
Man I'd kill to have skill like this!! So amazing
I love how you pulled a dress out of curtains Sound Of Music/Gone With The Wind style and made it look so fabulous and romantic! Its perfect for a garden party and just pair it with a hat and a shawl made of lace.
I would have never thought that curtain would make such a beautiful dress!!
I love the black and blue dress🌚
BtsGot7Exo Trash armyy
Ally Potato yaaas
lmao this cracked me up
BtsGot7Exo Trash lmao
this is like the scene in Gone with the Wind, when Scarlett O Hara makes a dress out of her curtains! Pretty dress!
Have we not all wore a curtain like a dress back when we were young? She brought childhood dreams to reality....ilu
This dress was one of the most satisfying to watch. And one of the best dresses you have made for yourself.
Newest trend of 2017:
Wearing curtains (and rocking it)
The dress in the beginning is just 😩😩😍😍 she should start selling these! I need a dress for my grad
Having the discipline and self control to do all that work, I really respect you.
Edit: I didn't write that correctly but you guys get the idea. I admire her hard working spirit
I love how you show the parts that you wish you would have done this instead and the parts that you thought of later to show the fluidity of dress making.
wow i think this is your best transformation yet!!! i love that you took a non-clothing item to transform instead of a different type of clothing!
I smashed this like button so hard! I wish you could make me a dress like this 😭 this dress is gorgeous!!!
My mother a seamstress from a poor home saw every piece of material as a possible curtain (considered a luxury then). You see a curtain as a possible dress! I love it! You look adorable and your creativity is inspiring, thank you!
I.ve been a tailor for about 30yrs now and you are really good. Both my grandmothers were tailors and could take any fabric and make something amazing! My 1 grandmother put a needle and thread in my hands when i was 4yrs old and i was making barbie clothes at 7yrs old and by 14yrs old i was making my own clothes. Im 57 now and do what your doing all the time. Keep up the awesome work! "A creative mind never gets bored because their imagination will always take them somewhere! So see, imagine, and create!" Wise words from my grandmother. 😉
This is beautiful, April!! I love being a part of snap fam and always seeing how hard you work behind the scenes 💞
Just like maria in the sound of music 😍
Thought of the same thing!
I went looking for this comment and found it. Take an upvote!
April, your vision and talent for Sewing is just AmaZing!!! And so young....you can only get better like a fine wine with time! You are such an Inspiration to all! And girl you are killer with that rotatory cuter!!!!
Stunning!!! One CD would never know it was made from curtains unless you told them!!! You are very very talented!!!
I'm the reveal she looked like a princess! ok. well let's face it she always looks like a princess. lol
That is far and away the most beautiful thing you have made it is stunning!!!!
My 6 year old daughter has been so inspired by you, April! We've been binge watching your Thrift Transformations and now she's decided she wants to be an Entomologist and a fashion designer lol
Her designs are so chic I cant. I CAN'T! She's soooo talented!
This is amazing omg. And a tip for your gnat problem:
-Get an empty water bottle and cut off the top (about an inch down from the cap).
-Take some apple cider vineger put in about 2-3 tablespoons (or more, its up to you) and add a tiny bit of a water (idk like a teaspoonish? I always just eyeball it) Than if you any lemon/citrus scented dish soap ad a few drops of that.
-Take that top part that you cut off and take the lid off it and you will attach it back to your bottle. But instead of putting it on top just flip it to create like a funnel type of thing in your bottle. Place it in you room and it will help get rid of them!
((I hope that made sense... You can place as many as you want in the area of the gnat problem))
soo cute! It came out so nice and professional :D
I am short and you are so inspiring we can still look beautiful when we are short. I love you dressing sense and your style...
Your technic makes everything look easy. Thanks for the inspiration
Can you please make more curtain dress transformations??
To all of you making fun of curtains: if it was good enough for Scarlet O'Hara, it's good enough for you.
Yassss!!!
Is it a quote from "The Family"- Luc Besson?
Soooooooo talented !!! Thanks for sharing these wonderful designs and how to's !!!
What a designer!!!!!! You're so motivated and talented!
Please go on project runway
this video feels more special because i've watched your snapchat updates
all of her handmade clothes look so much better than if you brought it and you get to make it how you want it !! 😍
What a wonderful idea. Very beautiful. Thank you
That's Gorgeous. I imagine this dress on little flower girls tho.
I think if she made it halter and with wide straps and put on some heels, i dont think u would see flowergirl.
It's perfect as it is
I was like I totally wanted to make this , 30 seconds after she started making the dress I was like " so many f****ing steps .....HELL NO"
alina amin, me too
Right!
A person could find a ready made sleeveless dress and cover it with curtain material.
Amazing! What an eye you have for fabric and design. Brava!!
So beautiful! I love seeing your transformations, and am so inspired!
Gorgeous dress. I love the lenght :) xx
wow, this some real Gone with the wind stuff
You are so talented April!!!!! You blow my mind EVERY TIME!!!!!!!!!
What incredible vision and talent! Beautiful dress!
