Rachel: what if my followers hate me
Us: oh my fucking god you’re so great be my friend
Literally my wish. lol
Hear hear!
^this^
she seems like the best friend
Yessss! Agreed!

A quote to live by: “It’s really not that hard to not be a dick.”
I need to make that the ring tone for some people...
"who needs a thousand metaphors to realize you shouldn't be a dick" - Bo Burnham
I still love bumper stickers. This would be just right!
I don't think it's possible to word that phrase better. I love Rachel for saying it!
and very true
ie: you talking about giving away costumes, you could also try donating them to your local community theaters! Most have really small costuming budgets, and trust me, can find use of even the "weirdest" things
I know you probably weren't thinking about it, but that's also a great idea for the fabrics that sit in my stash because I don't know what to do with them! Thank you!
@@janisi9262 very cool idea!
that is such a good idea^^
This is an awsome idea, we need her to see this
omg this is such a better idea!!! Either a community theater or a highschool theater!!
"panics in lizard person" and the imposter sydrome lurking around the corner made me cackle
In regards to sewing:
Micarah Tewers - Chaotic Good
Rachel Maksy - Neutral Good
Bernadette Banner - Lawful Good
Well damn this makes me want to start a sewing channel where I sew FOR EVIL! BWAHAHA
Why does this sum it up perfectly.
You should see if a local theater company would want your costumes! Or even a high school theater club, I'm sure they'd be thrilled
Oh yeah, wow, imagine getting a heap of awesome costumes as a high school theatre club!! 😍 What a dream!
My highschool always borrowed from the community college nearby, so we never got to keep any of the actually good stuff 😩
Plus, a lot of her clothes can work well for period pieces! I’ve been in stuff like the Crucible and Fiddler on the Roof, and clothes that can look “historically ambiguous,” where they could easily fit a multitude of time periods, are really useful to theater companies.
That’s a cool idea!!
Her costumes are probably a bit more comfortable too
*Her mentioning giving away old costumes and me immediately thinking about her Joan of Arc costume* .... ✨ s n a t c h ✨
Yeah that was amazing!!!
Oohhh
Yes the min she said giveaway 🏃🥳🤩🤯
I'd fight you for it but I live too far 😂
You know what I'd love to see her make? Cinderella's pink dress, the one the mice made for her
"Make it vintage'er"!
BUT MAKE IT 1700s???
This is probably the most authentic thing I've ever seen on CZcams. As always, you are a breath of fresh air!
Love your music 😍
Teehee
True! How did I miss this gem until July???
Dita von Teese once said, “You can be the juiciest peach in the world and someone out there will still hate peaches.” Don’t let other people’s opinions decide who you are. You are awesome and super talented. I always look forward to your videos. Keep doing you and ignore the negativity.
Perfect comment! Now, please, if Rachel would do a Dita von Teese inspired look, maybe for valentines, as a nice acknowledgment?
@@pearliek1954
That would be amaaaaaazing 🤗🤗🤗
I agree 100 percent! Well said.
“Once drop kicked someone in a mosh pit”
“Once got drop kicked in a mosh pit”
Yes! That was so funny.
She wonders why people like watching her. Well, I for one love the way her brain works. Just all of it. It makes my soul smile. I look forward to each video to see what jokes she'll crack and what weird floor troll thing she'll do next. She's relatable, real and incredibly quirky and adorable. Not to mention talented. I also love that she's imperfect and she's letting us learn along with her. It's refreshing really.
I also watch Rachel constantly I'm like glue to her I love the way she is no pretense.
You read my mind good person. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
I love morbid! I listen to it every night before bed. The weepy voiced killer was the freakin worst.
Oh hi😍👋🏻
Omg I KNOOOW. Real audio always gives me the heebie jeebies
I wake up before everyone else in the house, so I have some quiet me-time and listen to Morbid. 🖤
Oh my, Rachel AND Micarah are Morbid fans, my two favourite sewing CZcamsrs love my favourite podcast. 🖤
I love listening to them too! Hello weirdos!
“It’s really not that hard to not be a dick!” Can we make this the official slogan of 2021? Lol
Want my T-Shirt Now
Take my money 💰 yessssss merch !
I was just going to comment the exact same thing! It's so much easier to just not be a dick to people.
Smartest thing ever said in 2020 and my main quote in 2021!
Video: *starts*
Rachel: *plops face down on the sofa*
Me: *hits like button*
Haha me too hit button!!!
Yeahh that was just... mood haha
Lmao same
Exactly what I did!
totally. lol
“It’s really not that hard to not be a DICK!”😂 I love Rachel so much. She just says the most perfect things at the most perfect times, and her reference game is top notch.
25:57 exactly!
YES. Preach it, sister!
Could not agree more!!!!!
I genuinely laughed very hard when you were introducing the stars and tied in the mosh pit drop kick between Gina and Lucy S.
"Meeting the ladies" was the highlight for me!! Some may even say they were - the stars of the show! 🤣🤣
Thank you
If you don’t have a specific person in mind already for the dresses you don’t think you’ll wear again, there are charities that give dresses people don’t have a use for anymore to people as prom or wedding dresses. This dress would make an incredible prom dress
And if a particular dress isn’t appropriate for that purpose, why not auction off for charity?
I agree. It would be an awesome prom dress. There might even be a bride or bridesmaid out there who would love it.
There's also a lot of organizations that take clothes for transgender teens! Upon transitioning, I donated all of my feminine formal clothing, including a couple vintage dresses that I wish I still had to turn into other garments. That's on me tho
And I’m sure local high school theater departments would welcome any donation of costumes for their productions. I used to sew (until my sewing machine and I broke up because we couldn’t play together nicely) and did sewing for the high school I worked at during my sewing days for their musicals. And despite the flaws I blatantly saw and the use of hot glue where needed, they loved them! (Not in anyway boasting of my abilities, remember I don’t talk to my sewing machines anymore...😒) And to finish off, you are amazing, so don’t let anyone tell you differently! Hold your head high and keep doing the great job you’re doing!
That was exactly my thought and I also love the ideas in the replies!
"i have a face sorta similar to carrie ficher's"
uh, darling i thought that was an actual picture of carrie
IT WASN'T???
I can never figure out how Frodo doesn't stab his lil tum when he lays on projects that already have pins in them lol I guess it's just his dedication to be where he aint supposed to be
I'm always worried he's gonna poke his toe beans
I feel like Rachel can just breathe and all of us fans are like “YAS THIS IS THE BEST CONTENT, MORE PLS”
Totally ❤️
Honestly yes. I would happily watch her putter around the house and clean, and I still would be like, “ah yes, chef’s kiss.”
True
@@crylokrebs9552 we need a hang out cleaning video asap
so
Truth: A lot of us just want to hang out with you in this weird parasocial space called CZcams, whether or not you're actually doing anything in particular.
Yes, just want to hang out with Rachel, and her best friend Tommy, and with Frodo! Especially with Frodo!
TRUTH!
Ditto
“Waiting for serotonin” needs to be the subtitle of my memoir someday lol Here’s hoping for a good 2021 for us all!
“I felt like looking like a princess... so I deed it” our ✨QUEEN✨
Rachel honestly I would be so happy to hear about all the “boring” things you have to talk about. The world is bananzas right now so hearing some quiet little news that shows a small bit of joy is absolutely what I want to hear about :)
Right? I love her sit down videos/q&as
YES.. so very, yes.
I agree with this comment! Those little "boring,ordinary things" are the things that make me smile and love your content even more!
This is such a sweet comment, I love it
Rachel, I love your little “mistakes”. Like when you misspeaks or something. It shows you’re imperfect, it means you’re human. Part of why I follow you is because of how real you are.
same! I just relate to her so much
Some people in here not all make snarky remarks about Rachel and it bothers the hell out of me Rachel is honest and no fakeness
on her I do support you Rachel never give up critics are Jealous.
Rachel, just remember that ‘failing’ most of your goals so wasn’t your fault - the pandemic has trashed all our lives and you have achieved SO much despite of that! You have 700,000 subscribers! We’re so proud of you 😍❤️
I know that finding a purpose these days can be hard and that it can lead down a spiral of self-doubt and depression (or at least melancholic thoughts), so thank you, Rachel, for still making content and bringing a smile to your community! It’s tough putting yourself and your content out there and I appreciate every minute of it! 🧡
I am not a fan of Imposter Rachel, but I am a BIG fan of Imposter Rachel's cape 🌻Giving me evil Kermit vibes
HAHAHAHAHA YES! xD
Why did “and make space mom proud” almost make me cry????
Me too.
Because we all miss Space Mom.
I honestly said “she’d be so proud of you, space baby,” out loud. ❤️
I thought about Carrie Fisher a lot last year. I'll probably keep thinking of her a lot this year as well the way things are going.
“I felt like looking like a princess today, so I did it”-totally my new motto.
Me: Has a list of legitimate criticisms of Mother Teresa.
Also me: This might not be the best time. lol
It's important and necessary to set real boundaries online. We've gotta normalize this. Thank you for another ✨shockingly relatable✨ video Rachel!
Yes. A list. But yes. Not now haha.
Same 😂
Oh good! I wasn't the only one!
SAME! I wish people would just stop using her as a good example, get someone else!
I was just watching it and just staring at my screen with a small pained smile as she talked about that b*tch mother Teresa
Am I the only one to think this dress looks like something Hera (the Greek goddess) would wear? I mean, it has the gold, the stars, the peacock color and the dramatic train... I love it!
I totally see that!
YES!
"I have been very much potato for the past three weeks..."
Rachel, we have all been potatoes for the past year
Even potatoes get sour cream and butter to fancy them up
Truer words, never said. ❤️
I've been a potato so much in 2020 I'm starting to sprout!
I’ve been a potato from the time i left childhood 💔

“Ouch, Charley” made me spit my coffee out. Pulled from the depths of the early internets and my soul.
Please Rachel make the dress and shoes and wings from Ever After!!!
She finally made the dress!!
Rachel's Imposter Syndrome: They all hate you...
My husband, seeing Rachel-potato-hates-exercise: Hey, it's your twin, honey!
Yeah... you're awesome and you legit make my life better by existing.
I must now have “Potato with Purpose” merch 😆😂🤣
My teen daughter would sp wear that. She is always saying Potato 🥔 🤷♀️😆
I Want.
YES PLEASE
Yes, Please! 🥔
I would love this!
THIS WOULD LOOK SO GOOD STYLED LIKE THE DIFFERENT ZODIAC SIGNS
The "wait, is this inside out" is the BIGGEST crafting/sewing mood. I do that all the time, you have no idea.
This dress looks like what a wizard would wear to a party in the Wizarding world during the Fantastic Beasts times! I really like it!
Or like she would just be in a painting looking ethereal
Omggg it isssss
Rachel: Hospital visits dressed as characters-
Me: Stop. I’m in. I want whole vlogs of that.
I will need to get myself into a hospital then... In the US... Hopefully my European insurance covers a very necessary trip to the states
Yes! This!
Same!
Watching you cuddle Frodo while he's in donut form was my dose of serotonin for the day
I absolutely adore that headpiece! So happy to have found youtubers like you, Bernadette, and Morgan. You three are the main inspiration for me to someday make my own clothes, and to find my fashion style.
RACHEL HOW DID YOU KNOW THIS IS THE PERFECT CONTENT
EXACTLY
It literally ALWAYS is
No need to be perfect.. That's why it's perfect.. Do you remember the (I think it was Esprit) Marketing campaign with the words "I'm perfect" "imperfect"? I think that's the clou.. (sorry for answering and not being Rachel, just my 5 pence :)..) free virtuell hugs to all you lovely people..

“For no particular reason...two weeks late,” is SUCH a 2021 mood.
I love it when creators just be real for at least 2 minutes straight. It makes me feel like I'm talking with someone genuine while I draw something.
I love watching your little quirks and slipups. You have such humor about it; you are so able to laugh at yourself and accept it as a "happy accident" to quote Bob Ross. Your attitude towards your crafts and life has really helped me accept my own failures as a crafter and try to keep going. This admirable attitude that you have is exactly why I love to watch your videos, Because your projects are not always perfect. You are a joy to watch and I hope you can see yourself with the forgiving love and humor that is always the most endearing part of your videos.
1800s hair video, the looks she was giving the camera modeling styles she clearly didn't like and had done her best to recreate, ah, I just only want to look at myself with that pluck and willingness to play ball

Rachel Maksy merch I will absolutely buy

When you said you thought endorphins were a myth, I felt that in the depth of my soul. I never get a good feeling from exercise. Ever. I HATE working out.
Same. And I keep buying nice sport bras, because I believe that in new bra I'll be a whole new person. A fitness guru. 😭
Yoga counts as excessive, it’s not something that’s always fast paced but it’s still exercise while also being stretching and good for your mind. ❤️🌻
Same here. I don't get that "runner's high" and exercise is SO boring. I end up hurting all over and struggling to breathe and I just want it to be over as quickly as possible. Not even listening to music or trying to watch TV helps. 😕 I need to do it more but ugh.
So glad to hear there are at least a few other people out there in the world who feel this!! 🤦🏻♀️ Thought it was just part of having fibromyalgia (most exercise is pain, during & after) but looks like it's just a thing... 😏
I love all of the beautiful venting that happened during the star gluing portion. I felt my heart lift.
Yeah, the video is really nice, how is everything with you over there?
I really love that editing Rachel has been making more of an appearance recently!
This costume reminds me of those art nouveau fairy perfume ads from the early 20th century. The bright saturated hair with the sharp blues and gold really looks stunning on you.
Agree
Yes, so pretty ♡ The hairdo in itself looks very art noveau too.
@@MajaBiana
I agree
She should photoshop herself in it into an Alphonse Mucha inspired poster!
Rachel: "Potato with Purpose"
... I need this on a t-shirt
This is literally the second video of yours ive ever watched, and just seeing you do your hair and makeup for no particular reason other than to make yourself happy made me change out of my pjs, wear a cute outfit, curl my hair and put on makeup for the first time in like two weeks. I can already tell you're a lovely person, and honestly your like-to-dislike ratio proves that the majority of people here think that too. I hope you continue being yourself, and may all your 2021 goals come true!❤️
congrats on getting out of your jamas.
i know it sounds silly, but sometimes, doing that is a huge step, amd deserves some acknowledgemnent.. even ten months later! : )
@@Plethorality aww thanks, that's much appreciated, even 10 months later ;)
So I feel the need to reply to all of those self-perceptions doubts even though I'm just a random stranger online, but
I love your videos so so much! You're one of the few CZcamsrs that I genuinely look forward to watching every week because I have so much fun watching your content :) You're fun, ingenious, kind, creative and so natural, it's been a pleasure finding you online. I've been following the channel since 2018 and I plan to stay around for as long as you keep posting. Take care!
Costube (aka Rachel, Bernadette, Karolina, etc.) are the only reason I’m still sane, also, the dress is amazing!!!! It gives me Luna lovegood vibes
Sammeee
This spoke to me.
The Luna Lovegood comment is superb.
I'm an old lady and we're required to give unsolicited life advice... You, my dear, are freaking rocking it out the park. You have been rocking it out the park all year. Use your own yardstick to measure your success. No one else's yardsticks matter.
I love your videos! You are so real and you are also unique in how gifted you are! I love watching and rewatching your videos!
After learning to sew 35 years ago, I learned many moons ago always pin all your pieces to your fabric before cutting because chances are very good you'll run short (some actually end up wider than your fabric too, especially if you have to alter your pattern pieces at all). Never completely rely on pattern yardage either as it's always best to buy at least a half yard to a yard more than called for. I've been there lol. You're getting so much better at your sewing!! Keep it up.
Pedro Pascal said something about using a "bedroom voice" for the character, so your reaction is sensible.
I feel like all of his voices are bedroom voices 😂
Might be the wine talking but I’m dying at the imposter syndrome scene
Edit: I stopped the vid and went to sleep and holy crap this blew up!
Its not the wine
My Rum and Coke agree.
My 2 hour old half-drunk energy drink would like to chime in with a bubbly 'affirmatron' that it is not in fact the wine talking.
the cape swoosh ..... omg it was gold
Not the wine. Unless you all want to count two servings of chocolate as an equivalent.
I always have to remind myself to NOT click away when Rachel says the goodbye, because the outtakes at the end are GOLDEN!! It's like a Marvel movie!!
Yeah, Really lovely videos. Hope all is well with you?
THE CAPE IS FAIRYCORE, YOU CAN'T CHANGE MY MIND✨✨🌱😳💗🌼
If anyone points out something out of your control, let their cereal always be soggy. Watching your creations is super comfy and helped me learn a lot about creating cosplay. And winging it!
Sophia Petrillo level curse. Very impressive magicks.
Okay, but get this: Merch with the sayings: "Potato With Purpose," "But first... coffee," and most importantly: "It's really not that hard to not be a dick."
but instead of t-shirts, VINTAGE POODLE SKIRTS. You know, in cute colors from olive green to pastel pink but it says the slogans and has a little picture (like the world's best potato pizza/cup of coffee) in the bottom left front corner of the skirt.
either that or like vintage letter jackets/sweaters with the slogan on the back and cute picture on the lapell.
eeehhh??????
or like any other vintage inspire articles with the best Matsky quotes of all time. :D
I would die to have one.
Omg T H I S
Make T-shirts Rachel!! We. Will. Wear. Them.
Right? I will redo my wardrobe for those shirts
I love the idea of the vintage poodle skirts!
Omg this is the best idea ever!!! I would buy so many!! God I need this in my life so bad 😭
Rachel: Makes a gorgeous LAMARR inspired star dress for our depressed eyes filled with glee Also Rachel: They all hate mee. Cmon, you're a sunshine in these dreaded times!
Your channel is as much chatting with friends than making an original garment. Making the dress is almost an excuse to give us an honest talk about having a CZcams channel. I like your candor and authentic communication. That makes you endearing and that is why you have so many subscribers that enjoy your humor and frank talk. We know you work hard at your art. You delight us and make us forget that we are stuck at home too with the pandemic, but YOU have the courage to make something instead of sitting in front on the TV. Many of your listeners would say that they dont have a very exciting life either, they dont go to fancy balls.
Stay confident in your talents, keep going, you are one of a kind!
"waiting for serotonin" made me almost choke on my coffee, 12/10 content.
pausing just to say that the intro to "the ladies" was perfect and hilarious.
Bullet journaling is an ADHDer’s dream. I can change monthly layouts in the middle of the month, make lists for daaaays, randomly add whatever bullshit I want literally wherever, and as long as it goes on my index we’re gravy baby.
I’ve been reading so much recently about how creating for the sole objective of pleasing others leads to creative death. I’m always so happy watching your videos! At least from my perspective I envy and admire your ability to just create and not worry overmuch about issues until it’s finished and you can look back and see how you would improve. I LIVE for that neck/headpiece!
10/10 My favorite dress! Its celestial, simple, and elegant. That's my favorite style of dress. You did a fantastic job! 🤩🤩
When she said “it’s a little prom dress rn” I kinda lost it because the dress she made was exactly what I want for my prom and our theme is under the stars lmao. It is literally perfect!
I hope you get it in the giveaway then!
We need the “2021” as a ringtone
When she was naming the star bits all I could think of was that scene from Surfs Up, with the penguin naming his trophies.
The introducing the ladies bit slayed me 😂😂😂 So good!!!
The "The Ladies!" Part killed me!!
I absolutely love Gina
why were the names and descriptions for the stars so accurate... like how
I actually really liked the mottled look of the cape :) I think adding the color definitely gave it more dimension compared to leaving it light blue
I have friends in the 501st/Rebel Legion here in Canada. Honestly, their costumes are super screen accurate but once you go through all that work and get in, you’ll have a new extended family. They are the best people!
I’m so down for your charity visits in costumes. I do that myself with a group of friends and it’s the best feeling! Do it, girl!
Don’t Stop Me Now is THE hype song of lyfe.
I could be wrong, but I think it was voted the most motivating/happiest song
Rightly so!
Rachel ... hint: We actually all love you!!🤗
I just wanted to say, thank you for sharing your creations and personality. I’ve been going through a lot and your videos are an escape for me. Right now I’m dealing with a painful tooth. I have some pain killers, but being able to just lay on my couch and listen to your voice and the background music is really helping me. You’re a beautiful person and you’re creations are amazing. Thank you 💕
Rachel, that mustard coloured dress with the way your hair looked so fabulous! I want that as my wallpaper on my phone
Even New Year’s potatoes deserve ballgowns ❤️
Honestly rachel, you could film yourself blabbering about lord of the rings for 2 hours and I would watch it 😅
Same here
Lets challenge her with that and see how many people like and watch.
Rachel you should consider donating your costumes to high-school, Jr high, drama clubs or any after school programs in your area that support performing arts. They're always struggling to get money for costumes and the students can alter the sizes themselves. I was a costume designer in my drama club and I learned so much.
I’m with you on the idea that people who sling crap and think they are so much better than you: Quote: “If people don’t know what is in you, why do you care what they think.”
Quote: “ You will always be too much of something for someone: too big, too loud, too soft, too edgy. If you round out your edges, you lose your edge.
Apologize for mistakes. Apologize for unintentionally hurting someone -- profusely. But don’t apologize for being who you are.”
Who you are is why so many people watch your videos! I don’t really care about sewing, I’m more into decorating, but I watch ALL your videos because I find you entertaining and genuine.
PS: please do more room makeovers!
Luv you!
