this vid is it a bit more of a different video than normal! but i hope you enjoy this little crescent shay lore dump haha - i'll be back with a full tutorial next week! (something,,, wormy )
Yknow I only found this channel about a year ago and fell in love with the designs and kind and sweet you are so, *TLDR* keep creating and if you ever feel down always know we have your back! ❤❤❤
Honestly I wish I had this much talent Omg I hadn’t realized how frequent shay appeared in my past I had just found their UA-cam this month but looking back I’ve noticed almost half of these costumes/designs
Hey! I just love you. I just wanted to say that your flower drese gave me inspiration and a loose guideline to personalize my wedding dress. I am struggling a lot but it will be so worth it. Thank you! You're also getting me back into cosplaying. You create and do amazing, amazing things and I'm so proud of you. You're so gorgeous inside and out!
it's truly crazy to realize i've been watching you create for half a decade now pretty much...wild! it's always so cool to see what thing you make next and keeps inspiring ME to learn new things myself :)
It's a lot of fun to look at all the projects together and how your garment construction has developed over the years, and to see some of the projects that either never made it to UA-cam or aren't up on UA-cam anymore! Some of the timeline bits flashed by so fast I had to slow the video play down to 0.25 speed *and* pause just to see and appreciate everything.
Wow. Can I say you are such an inspiration. Like puting aside your whole work, which is all absolutely fabulous no question there, your attitude and your energy is amazing. I watch your videos and you made my day happy no joke. And what you just say here at 8:17 "..is about what am I gonna learn not just what I like.." that way of thinking is what is getting you far and is truly inspiring. Never change. ❤
This video just told me I've been following your progress for 4 years now and I am having an insanely hard time comprehending it right now. So happy I've been able to see your progress along these years.
The coronation dress that you made is beautiful! It’s so surprising that it was one of your first projects. Of course everything past that is amazing too!
I stumbled upon you during the pandemic with the Met Gala recreation at home trend and have been blown away by your talent ever since! You are also so sweet and kind and hilarious and it's just such a breath of fresh air to see on the internet these days. If the world had more Shays in it, it would be a much better place 😊Just remember that your mental (and physical) health always comes first 💗💗💗
Thank you for this. Its nice to know what really inspired you back when you first started. I dont know how you do it Shay, how you keep going but keep it going. Ive been following your page for a while now. I think since 2020...and I love your work. I cant say I create costumes or any of the things you do but I did like to make or create a loooot of accessories. Mostly brooches with fabric flowers and bead jewellery. I really got into it too especially during Covid times. But I met a couple of people who really put me down mentally and it really messed with my experience of creating things. I was in the height of creating back then, at my peak when these people came into my life. I dont create anymore. I hit a wall and never picked up on it again. I switched back what I used to do when I felt low or hit any low. Crafting. And even that kinda has been on the rocks. Watching your videos is inspiring because I feel a push to create something or draw something. Every time I see you on Instagram when you have updated your stories I feel excitement literally because I love watching you work on your projects and see you tackle soooo many different things. You dont limit yourself, you go all out and its sooo refreshingly niceeeee. Keep going Shay. Always love what you do. No one can ever take away what you do. Thats who you are. ❤❤❤❤❤
oh wow yeah the belle dress and allll the voltron outfits really take me back, i remember being so in awe over your work whenever i would see it on instagram, i think you really shaped my early cosplay days and helped me realise that i really do enjoy this hobby.
Wow you have had an amazing journey! I'm so happy you didn't give up on your channel. I know what it's like to have mental health problems. I'm 70 and still have them. But keep on doing what you're doing. I love your channel. Thankyou for being you.
I 1st started watching you when I saw the belle shoes! and then was obsessed with the barbie dresses. I love your creations, they're so amazing and makes me want to make clothes and stuff myself.
Bravo! What a timeline! It's amazing to see all you've accomplished 👏👏👏 The social distancing dress was the first reel we came across on the 'gram... and since then we've been eagerly watching your inventive creations 😁 I can't wait until I'm able to sew again. Your work is inspiring ✨️
I love hearing that cosplay was your jumping board into expressing yourself, learning new skills, and developing original designs! Those are a lot of the same reasons I love the hobby so much. Can't wait to see what you make next!
Hearing that you were also a RWBY fan is so cool! I used to make at home cosplays of Nora as well, not nearly as detailed but they were based off of her!!
I’ve been following for I think ~5 years now and I love seeing your old projects and being able to say “oh I remember when you made that!” Keep on making cool stuff!!
Shay I think your totally rad. I want to Thankyou for helping break the stigma of having a therapist. I’ve had one for a long time and I tell people openly because I want more people to get on board with it. I’m a keen crafter and I’ve been enjoying your channel for a while, it just makes me smile.
haha i got a comment on my kokomi video being like "you're basically a cosplayer with all these costumes!" and little do you know IVE BEEN ONE ALL ALONG
Yay! I started watching when you made the shoes; so sweet. I Love, Love, Love your green screen dress--that was sooooo creative :). Congratulations on all of it and the success of your channel!
I am literally so impressed by your creativity and hard work!!! I wanna see all your designs in a museum someday. I've always thought that you would literally KILL it on a show like Next in Fashion or Project Runway!! You're truly a phenomenal designer :)
ive been offline for a while so i didnt know abt some of these most recent crafts! they look so good, and my little goldfish brain almost screamed when i saw the kokomi dress!!!
I actually started reading cinder recently. I had to return the book to the library before i could finish it unfortunately but i do have it reserved to continue it again soon. So that cosplay is really cute. Sometimes simple cosplays are the most comfortable and creative
Oh my gosh the fog coat! That was the first thing I saw of crescent shay and I got obsessed from there 😅. You’ve come so far, farer than I realised, keep doing what you’re doing and keep doing the things you love doing! Also I want to find out more of this vegetable dress and mermaid tail.
i actually found you through the belle shoes back in 2019, and I recently started watching your youtube not even realizing you were the same person! keep up the awesome work :)
Now I know why you’re called Crescent Shay! Because of crescent Rose! 2:30 I jumped up with excitement when I saw Ruby Rose and your cosplay of her because she’s my favorite character!😃😄🌹 Also, I’ve been creating my own Halloween costumes ever since. My first costume that I created was a 🦚. This year I’m going to create my costume again and I’ll going to be a strawberry 🍓 Thank you for being inspiring, Shay. You’re one of my favorite idols ever and I hope to meet you one day.❤️
Please take this as the compliment I mean it to be: I feel like you hide your power level when it comes to how stunning your beauty is 😅😊 Your daily look (glasses, pigtails, funky earrings, hair clips, comfy outfits, etc.) is cute but really understated, so when you’re in your amazing creations, it’s always extra stunning to see how exquisitely these outfits draw more attention your eyes, face shape, and complexion.
haha thank you! I def think its fun to really turn out for a look and go all clark kent when i take off the glasses - but my daily look is what just feels most "me"!
Stop i didnt know you like rwby. rwby is so cool. holy crap yuri on ice too and wthh that dress is stunning. I'm literally crying you're so cool the voltron coran cosplay. I love the entrapta one. the nimona shoes are the cutest thing ive ever seen i think i want to try and make a pair for myself.
i remember cinder from back in the day, it was a YA book. if the author is anything like the YA authors i know, you showing up in that cosplay will be one of her top memories for life.
Thank you so much for creating and aharing. I am wrastling chores and can't muster my pretty speech. Still, I enjoy your vibe and admire your work, and look forward to whatever content you decide to make next 😀👑🌟💖
It's so awesome to see cosplays for books, esp the Lunar Chronicles!! I think VLD hit us all really intensely for some reason 😅 I'm also the same age so idk.
Your so lucky you can make things you should be a fashion designer because your that good!! ❤❤ I love everything you sewed even I can’t do it though I tried it didn’t work out
I really like seeing your work! I was hoping I would get to see you wearing all of these! Would have been more fun if you would put each one on to talk about it although I realized that would have taken a really long time to film!
Wow! I love you and your videos! You are so talented! Keep going! 😊🫶👗 Its so interesting to see hoe you have changed and improved! Love you Shay!!😊🫶🫶💅👗💕
Can we get a tutorial for those Voltron Crop tops?? I have no clue how to sew but I wanna make that!! I love Voltron soooo much! Everything you make is cool, but I didn't even know about the Voltron stuff you made till this video!!
Hey, just so you know better help is known for leaking/selling medical information, signing people on as therapists that are not licensed and have absolutely no qualifications, and so much more horrible controversies. Please look into them and drop as a sponsorship, its incredibly dangerous to promote.
I believe in therapy but it's so scary to me that some people go to therapy because of anxiety and just stay there for 4 years. I thought therapy will teach you how to process and to cope to things in a healthy way and you can use those learnings to help u live life. It seems like some therapists don't want their patients to be better to continue earning.
When I saw the Yuri on Ice and My Hero Academia cosplays I was freaking out. I love those anime so much and the Barbie dresses brought back so many memories of me as a little girl sitting in front of the tv and watching Barbie movies.
this vid is it a bit more of a different video than normal! but i hope you enjoy this little crescent shay lore dump haha - i'll be back with a full tutorial next week! (something,,, wormy )
Can't wait ☺️
Oooh my guess is something with worms on strings!
🙃🙃🙃🙃
Yknow I only found this channel about a year ago and fell in love with the designs and kind and sweet you are so, *TLDR* keep creating and if you ever feel down always know we have your back! ❤❤❤
😄@@LaChocoBow
So proud of you!!!!
@GunnarDeatherage Omg! I love you so much. You and Shay are what inspired me to finally attempt a lifelong dream of making my own clothes. Thank you!
Oh hi Gunnar!!
Hiii
Hahaha I didn’t expect to see you here, but I’m definitely not surprised 🤣 love your videos man
OMG!! Gunnar!!😍😄😃 what a surprise to see you here! You and Shay are sewing inspirations to me.
Honestly I wish I had this much talent
Omg I hadn’t realized how frequent shay appeared in my past I had just found their UA-cam this month but looking back I’ve noticed almost half of these costumes/designs
Making that Anna's dress from frozen at 14yr old is lengendary
After watching this video, I feel like a proud mom 🤭
So many outstandingly beautiful pieces! I don't know why, but the "Worm on a string" just hits with me, so funny.
Hey! I just love you. I just wanted to say that your flower drese gave me inspiration and a loose guideline to personalize my wedding dress. I am struggling a lot but it will be so worth it. Thank you!
You're also getting me back into cosplaying.
You create and do amazing, amazing things and I'm so proud of you. You're so gorgeous inside and out!
A personalized flower wedding dress sounds so cool! All the best

You are seriously the greatest fashion designer ever in my eyes ❤️🙏
NO WAY I REMEMBER THAT YURI DRESS DESIGN FROM TUMBLR OMG. Dude i had no idea that was you!!! Your design was so inspirational to me back in the day
I can’t even sew and she’s out here doing this-
If you find joy in it
You might yet give it a try :)
You mean sew what is sow
i can't even hold a needle, you're doing great
it's not a competition! we're all good at different things
@@nature_elfgirlsow is farming vocabulary. It just means to ready soil and plant seeds :)
3:44 i was not expecting Voltron but i could not be happier 🤩
Youre outfits are so amazing!! I wish i could sew 😭
how she made those things at 15 is beyond me
probably a mixture of practice and passion. if you want something bad enough, youll learn the skills to make it ❤
This video just told me I've been following your progress for 4 years now and I am having an insanely hard time comprehending it right now. So happy I've been able to see your progress along these years.
I LOVE that you create whatever brings you joy and sparks inspiration!

Hey, just so you know better help is known for leaking/selling medical information, signing people on as therapists that are not licensed and have absolutely no qualifications, and so much more horrible controversies. Please look into them and drop as a sponsorship, its incredibly dangerous to promote.
would have liked seeing all the pieces like an actual closet tour but its also nice to see the timeline of your work
I found you when you made the penny dress!
I believe in therapy but it's so scary to me that some people go to therapy because of anxiety and just stay there for 4 years. I thought therapy will teach you how to process and to cope to things in a healthy way and you can use those learnings to help u live life. It seems like some therapists don't want their patients to be better to continue earning.
Who’s the camera man holding it in such a nice way!?! Btw the dresses are amazing!
When I saw the Yuri on Ice and My Hero Academia cosplays I was freaking out. I love those anime so much and the Barbie dresses brought back so many memories of me as a little girl sitting in front of the tv and watching Barbie movies.
Honestly i can’t believe i’ve been watching you for 3 years
I didn’t know you were a lunar chronicles fan!! May need to do a cinder cosplay now…..
