I apologize for the audio balance! I'm realizing this morning that it's totally off in this video. My sleep deprived self thought it sounded fine last night lol. The next one will be right!
Don't beat yourself up! S*** happens. Get yourself some sleep girl!
Like @Courts says don't beat yourself up. It's all chill and we all hope toure getting enough sleep :)
You have to be yourself and that's awesome! Good for you Grace!
I'm glad you explained the change of tone. I was confused when I started seeing such different content. I hope this change helps you cope with the stress of being a CZcams personality. I've been watching your videos for years and love your cosplay ideas. I hope you do more of those in the future.
We are SUPER digging the new, chill vibe.
Thanks!
It’s okay, we totally support you and your creations. Love the content
Thank you Xander! I hope you're doing well.
Weve been here since you where Zonzonzonbie, then watched your channel shift into Zonbiesworkshop, and now Grace Willow. Personal growth is fantastic, and as long as you're happy, we will be sticking around watching your videos! Thank you for all that you do and for being an inspiration! Cheers!
You do what is right for you. We could all do with more calm in our lives and exploring new crafts is awesome. I can't wait to see what's coming.
I really dig the chill vibe. And it's pretty great to get my craft fix and enjoy chill vibes. I ate a bowl of lucky charms for my kind thing for myself. Can't do much besides that and watch more CZcams in the middle of a move, lol.
Glad the chill vibes is making you happy as well! Happy crafting!
I wish more creators told me to do something nice for myself. After this video I went and warmed up some apple crisp, then added ice cream to it. That was the perfect way to end my night! Thanks!
Thanks and still love following along with your adventures. Keep following your passion and allowing us to follow along.
Sonic Alchemy: A maker space Thank you so much for being here!!!
I like the new name and the calm, chilled out orientation of the videos. Keep up the good work and be true to yourself. All the best and stay healthy.
Always be passionate about what your doing. I enjoy your videos because you enjoy what your doing and that honesty shows through. Grace willow I think will do everything the old you did and so so much more.
As someone who is also in public safety (Firefighter/paramedic), I can fully appreciate what you are saying and wanting to achieve. Please continue to keep yourself physically and mentally safe.
Thank you for doing what you do John! Be safe out there!
I've been loving the chill vibe and your recent crafts have made me really excited for spoopy season! I don't have a garden or a place to garden but I TOTALLY want a gardening apron now....
Awww thank you so much Kristi!! You’re the best!! You could always use an apron for something else? Like crafting! Muhahahha!
I have some big pots on the fire escape >:) Don't tell my landlord ;)
Hi Grace! I would just like to stay a huge thank you for really making me smile during this year. 2020 has been terrible for me. I have incredibly low self esteem and sometimes even suicidal thoughts. I've even had numerous panic attacks and have gone to bed in tears. Your videos change that. I watch your videos and I feel better about myself. I've been following you for about a year and I've really enjoyed it. I really love the new chill tone of your videos. They help me calm down and relax in this hectic and horrible year. It's completely ok that you no longer want to be on Instagram and twitter. To be honest, those platforms are extremely toxic. I'm glad that you're feeling better. You have inspired me so much in cosplay and to explore new things in it. Self care is important and I'm glad you took the time for yourself with Adam.I know that your job means a lot to you and I bet you're a genuine and kind officer. It's good to have an escape and I thank you for being part of my escape.Thank You Grace. Stay safe, take care of yourself, and Happy crafting
Thank YOU so much for being here and for the kind words Panda ❤️ I’m sorry to hear this hear has been so terrible for you. I can’t imagine getting through this year AND having panic attacks. I’m proud of you for getting through everything! That is no easy feat. I hope you are taking care of yourself! Whenever you feel isolated remember: you have a community here! This year sucks but we’ll get through it together 💪❤️
I've been following you for years and was stoked to see you on Cosplay Melee. I love watching your videos and seeing what you're going to create next. All of this and balancing a job (I'm just assuming you still have) that is very....... We'll say stressful, ESPECIALLY in the current climate. You are an inspiration to all of your community. We love you Grace, keep it up and we'll see what you come out with next. Until then, thank you.
Thank you so much for being here Joe! Be safe out there and I hope you’re well! ❤️
Super stoked for new content, especially if you are having a good time!
Thank you Jennifer!
I love the idea of seeing other crafty things you are doing. You have inspired me in making Cosplay items, heck just giving me the confidence to go for it. So seeing other things you create would be awesome.
Honestly, 2020 can use more chill haha. Sorry to hear your year has been so rough, i can definitely relate but your videos always brighten my day. Your content helped get me into cosplaying so glad you are keeping on. I wish you and yours the very best.
Stay peaceful and safe, Grace! ✨
Thank you Christian!
Love the energetic approach in your earlier videos, but these troubled times, it's also lovely to have a little oasis of calm to come to. Here's wishing you all the best with future projects.
Thank you so much for your support Major Q!
Love the new vibe its feel calm and relaxing
Happy to have you back😊
I liked and enjoyed the old videos, but I LOVE the new direction that you have taken.
Thank you so so much!
I was looking for this video for a while and finaly it is here. Thanks for it.
Btw. It is your chanel, you dan do whatever you want. We will miss the "old Zonbi", but it is still you.
I'm a fan of the new direction. And your attitude and general vibe
Bravo! It takes real courage to be yourself in today's world. Be yourself and and your true fans will will grow with you. ❤ I've always been a crafter, but your channel was the first cosplay one I've followed (Yea! Another rabbit hole!😂) So I'm excited for all the other ideas you can share 👍🏼
Thank you so much for your kindness Bonnie! I'm happy you're here!
I noticed the change but it didn’t take me too long to realize you rebranded! I’m not going anywhere 🧡 you’ve always been so cool and down to earth.
I like the new direction of the channel and will continue to support it! Seeing your videos is partially what motivated me to start making video of my own!
Thank you so much!!! Oh my gosh I'm going to have to check out your videos RIGHT NOW!!
Ngl I’ve been wondering why I was getting notified for a channel called grace willow. I was thinking did I subscribe to this channel and trying to remember what video it was that I watched, but now it all makes sense🤣 Confusion aside, I’m really excited to see where you go with this and will definitely be catching up on what I missed!
Awww yay!! Glad you’re here! Sorry for the confusion and I hope you like the new stuff!
Honestly your content has changed so much that I think it's fitting xx
Thank you so much!
i had added so MANY new people to my feed due to CoCoVid that i figured it was a new channel! I'm glad your doing what makes you happy and what makes you feel good.
Thank you Harmony!
I'm digging the new tone and the channel name change!
It reminds me of cottagecore! 🍄
It doesn’t matter the name of your channel. Everything you produce is wonderful. I really enjoy the direction of the content. It’s so relaxing and diverse. Can’t wait to see more!
Thank you so much John!
You have been a great inspiration to my passion for cosplay ..your one of the first builders I started following and learning from .. so with that being said keep doing you!! You never know who you will impact !! Thank you so much
Wow thank you so much John. Thank you for being here through the years!
Honestly loving your new chill style! It's really comforting at the end of a long day to see a calming (and inspiring) video of yours
Thank you so much!
I want you to do whatever makes you happy!!! And even with the name change I will happily wear the Zonbi's workshop shirt I bought at RTX. Would love to eventually have a Grace Willow one too ❤️❤️❤️
Good job. You have to do things that will help better yourself the way you need. I have always liked your videos. Being crafty is very relaxing and helpful. Keep it up.👍
Just adore your videos. They are so relaxing but they always give me an extra boost to be creative! ✨🌻✨
Thank you so much! Happy crafting and I hope you have a great day!
I love this new vibe. Very cosy and much needed content. 🍄🍁
Thank you so much Elizabeth ❤️
I'm proud of you for making the switch you wanted to make. I can't wait to see how the channel continues, and I'm glad you are moving it into the direction you want it to. I got into you for the cosplay, but I stuck around for everything.
Congrats on your rebrand! Xxxx
And I love the chilled tone, and want you to be looking after yourself however you need to be- and if changing the direction of your creative outlet is helping, the go for it, sweetheart 💜😘❣️
Sending so much love
Be safe Grace xxxx
Thank you Sarah!
Listen, fuck anybody that leaves negative comments about changing your name, your content, your music, whatever. Your sweet and your adorable. Just continue doing what makes you happy and feel good. U are only going to live one life and you deserve to be happy doing whatever it is regardless of when or if it changes. Best of luck!
I'm sorry for whatever it was that you had to go through this year. You're an amazing person and an amazing content creator, and you deserve all of the love and support!
Your voice is so soothing, and the calmer vibe is a nice change from how frenetic some channels are. I love watching your videos - your creativity is so inspiring. I've been going through some bad emotional stuff (just had to sell my house) and watching your videos helps me get away from...stuff for a while.
Thank you so much Becky. I always look forward to your sweet comments. I’m sorry to hear you had to sell your house on top of everything else going on this year. That’s terrible. I’ll be thinking about you and sending you the warmest vibes ❤️
I love the new name/vibe/etc! My daughter's middle name is Willow so I instantly took a liking to the new channel name :)
Thank you so much Whitney! I'm happy you like it and I hope you and your daughter are well!
I love the way you’ve gone with your channel, it’s as enjoyable as ever to watch but also extra chill and soothing, so that’s always nice. ❤️ Look forward to seeing more of your lovely projects, Grace
I have been enjoying your new vibe and I thank you for your challenge. I especially love the room painting and decor stuff you have done lately! Thank you for being so awesome!
I'm loving your new videos! I know it probably sounds strange because I'm just an internet stranger that's been following your videos for a while (it feels like forever, but at least a year)... anywho... it seems like you are more yourself in your newer videos. I hope you and all of your loved ones are and continue to be well. 💛🖤
Thank you so much Stephen! I hope you’re doing well and staying safe out there!
I have a sad and a happy eye.
But I am really excited where this channel is gonna go :)
Gonna miss all the cosplay stuff but I'm interested in learning about a new direction of crafting ^^
The most important thing is that YOU have fun!!! So: have fun and we'll just sit and watch :D
She said in another comment she's still doing cosplay stuff, just on a different vibe of Original characters right now ^_^ won't have to miss anything for long I imagine
Thank you Max! You're the best. and don't worry I'll still be making LOTS of costumes!
I absolutely have been loving the new style of videos. Im glad this shift in style has brought you joy as well.
That fine, we all needed to chill especially nowadays.
Hi Grace, loving the new chilled you. I do hope everything is OK with you. Watching your channel has inspired me to do so many new ideas and try new things out. Loving your channel ❤
This channel has become one of the best ways to handle the stress caused by working at a hospital during a pandemic!
So thank you, Grace! And keep up the good work!
Oh my gosh thank you for your service! Be safe out there and I hope you're well!
Your kindness and beautiful attitude is an inspiration. I really appreciate your crafty vibes and positivity in this community, and this new channel look really suits you
Love it! always will support you.
Keep up the good work Grace! I'm sorry that this year has been particularly hard on you. I'm so happy that YOU are finding happiness in making videos. Thank you Grace.
Thank you so much Brian!
Keep making videos for us Grace! I will keep watching and, perhaps one day treat myself to your handbook =)
I don't mind the vibe (even though I miss the energetic approach) but can I please suggest a touch more balance in the audio overlay. It's a little too forefront for me and instead of being the calming sounds of rain and string music it's supposed to be, it sounds to me like audio interference over your voice.
Happy crafting
Thank you! And I apologize this video’s balance is way off! I didn’t realize it until it was too late.
@@GraceWillow No need to apologise! You are only just into this new direction after how many years of doing it differently. Bound to happen while you adjust and perfect it! I love your stuff and just want to hear more you
@@courtneylees9133 Thank you so much Courts! I'm happy you like the videos and best of luck with your builds!!
All the new content has been wonderful. I love the new vibe going on and can't wait for more. You be you and enjoy life.
Thank you so much Joseph. I hope you’re well!
Love you & your work. Keep up the amazing creations, please!
Thank you! And I will!
I actually didn't know you changed the channel name so thank you for the video. :)
I absolutely love the new vibe and am very excited for the next videos! So sorry to hear your life has been anything but nice, I hope it'll get better asap. Good for you, chugging Twitter and Instagram into the trashbin. I too have deleted my Insta and haven't looked back even once ever since. Sending much love!!
Thank you so much Lessa! Without Twitter & Insta I have been so much more productive, too. WHO KNEW? Haha. I hope you're doing really well!
I love that you changed your channel name to Grace, I always really liked Zonbi, but I think making this little corner of the internet, just... you... gives you so much of the freedom that you're looking for. You can literally make anything that you want in any way you want and it's you, it'll be YOU all the way through. I think that's a wonderful thing. I for love have loved the things you've made and the way you've made them (the chill vibes have been SUPER helpful to my own mental health, as they have to your own, and I'm really grateful for that). I'm glad that these changes have helped you make a better time in your year. I'm glad that we as viewers can help that in any small way. You've changed our lives, helped us in more ways than you might imagine, I can speak from experience. You're a wonderful and kind person, and a very versatile and talented creator. You're and inspiration in so many ways... as a crafter, a cosplayer, as a woman, as a human being. Thanks for brightening so many of our days, helping us chill on good days and bad, and for sharing with us all of the cool and cute things that you're inspired to make. Keep doing all of things you love, in all of the ways you love. I for one will always be a fan! 😊❤️
I always look forward to seeing you in the comments Alexis! Thank you so much for the kind words I am actually crying 😭 I’m sending you a giant internet hug from Texas!
I like the new ton you are doing and i happy that you are enjoying Making your videos. It all about having fun. :)
Aww thank you so much!
You’re awesome. This year has been something that has broken me and I appreciate you so much. Thank you grace
Tamara Lynn Chambers I appreciate YOU! I’m sorry to hear this year has been hard on you too Tamara! Hang in there we’ve got this buddy ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love the new vibe! I was confused at first but we as artists all grow and change. I look forward to see what else you have coming.
Thank you!
Its your channel, go with what you want to do. I love your work and you are clearly very talented with many different mediums. I do miss your old style. It had so much energy and excitement for the projects. Now I feel like it’s a bit depressed. But that is simply my baggage and expectations. Of course I will continue to support you. Stay safe and I wish you and Adam much happiness.
Love and support you always, then a now my dude! Gotta do what brings you joy!
I've said it before, but I love the new vibe! You and your channel have always been a little beacon of fun and comfort for me, no matter what. I get excited when I see a notification and I know that when I click on your videos, I'll always be greeted with your kind face and cozy vibes. I just wanted to let you know that I appreciate you and I'm so sorry to hear this year has been so challenging for you. 💖
Thank you so much Alexandra. You're the ACTUAL BEST! I get excited whenever I see you in the comments section! You're awesome
The age of cosplay is over, the age of crafting asmr has begun!
So good to see you doing what makes you happy! I really enjoy your content, we all need these wonderful doses of creativity you post...especially this year. I’m so glad we got to meet at DragonCon last year.
Best of luck to you! Stay positive and keep crafting! -Adrian, Nova Props
Adrian!! Thank you so much for being here. It was awesome to finally meet you at Dragon con! WE SHALL PARTY AGAIN SOON!
At the end of the day you gotta look out for your happiness and wellness. So many CZcamsrs get burned out because they keep doing what makes their viewers and the algorithms happy, not for themselves. Best of luck with the new direction.
Missed the community tab update, but I'm still here to support no matter what. Can't wait to see what you do going forward.
You are awesome lady! ❤
I am in love with every video you've posted recently! 😍 They make me so happy and I love the new direction. Now to convince my partner to let me turn the guest bathroom into a fantasy grove 🤔
Just want to say, love the new look and the revamp.
Thank you!
Love you and your content, always. You're a constant inspiration to myself, and many others, to stay creative and have fun while doing so.
Heres to hoping we get a chance to meet again at next year's dragon con!
Thank you so much for being here, Karissa! We shall party hard together next dragon con!
I hope things get less chaotic for you again. I know your day job isn't the safest right now, and as such I worry about you and my other friends in the field, some of which were my former Soldiers. Stay safe!
As for what I'm working on, I recently ordered a basic SLA resin printer that will arrive in a day or two, so I will most likely start learning 3D Modeling again and using it to make some new minis for the tabletop games I work on.
Thank you!!! Thank you for your service, sir. Also I'm so glad you're getting into 3D modeling! That is so awesome!
I like it. You are so talented. I grew up watching (and loving) Bob Ross.
Thank you Steven! I appreciate you!
I really love this content you are making . I’m very into the green witchy / cottagecore stuff and started weaving scarves at the start of the year. Soon I will get a spinning wheel.
Personally I took a break from cosplay for a while , mainly because con season has been cancelled but also because I’ve been getting back into Japanese street fashion.
You need to do whatever feels best for your own well being .
I love your new style of video keep doing what you love❤
Thank you so much!! I have been loving your videos too!
Omg thank youuuuu 😭😭😭😭😭
I'm early!
I noticed randomly anyway, since your OC video popped up in the first page. But I like this style of videos so much more! I've been noticing all about the progress you've made, internal and external. I'm extremely proud of you! Please keep it up, you're a real icon!
Awww thank you so much for being here ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I prefer the new chill tone. Your voice is soothing 💖
It’s really great that your focusing on chill and relaxing vibes because most cosplay related videos usually revolves around con crunch, sleepless nights and unfinished deadlines 😅 it’s much easier to work on stuff while watching your video’s 😊
Thank you so much Jazzi! I'm happy you like the videos and I hope you're doing well!
@@GraceWillow Yay cheers! I hope your doing alright yourself! 😊
Great choice with your new chilled style. Too many creators act like they are on Speed these days. Will do a buddy check with you later today. Stay frosty, Grace.
Thank you so much Joseph!
You go girl! My vlogs will always be loud and obnixious, we have to follow our truths!
I love your vlogs so much lol!!!
@@GraceWillow awww, your very sweet!
I wondered why I hadn't see you on my feeds lately! I hope you are well! I need to catch up on what I have missed.
I liked the old Zonbi, and I love the new Grace Willow. Lots of questions, but I'll spare you. Hope you are healthy and whatever the chaos, I hope it resolves itself soon.....
Thank you ❤️ I hope you’re healthy and staying safe!
Hi Grace. I’m in Mexico. I hate to see you’ve had a rough year, and that all this 2020 craziness has affected you. I’m sad you decided to flee Instagram, tho I know the comments can get really hurtful, I wish you kept it even with comments turned off. I loved to see what you shared, but I get it. I was struck by the new chilled mellow almost emo Grace and miss the silly happy joyful Zonbi, but I guess change is good. I hope things get a lot better for you and that you soon find a happy chill place we can see you and share our maker and cosplay endeavors. Receive a big hug and kiss and lots of love.
You go girl!
Thank you Wendy!
Thanks so much for checking on me today!
Thank YOU April!! You're such a positive, caring person.
I just got some Eva and it is my first time using it and it was you that got me in to it thank you for being here
I got your back my friend
Thank YOU for being here! Congratulations on using EVA for the first time! That’s so exciting!
@@GraceWillow it is and you are welcome hugs to you and your family and friends
Sitting here enjoying your video and then all of a sudden I was like... wait wut?!? My comment was posted in the video? That honestly brought a huge smile to my face. I needed that more than I realized.
You know what... You keep doing you. I love that you are choosing to be true to yourself; and honestly, I love the chill vibe you've been doing. It's relaxing and dare I say needed with the chaos around us these days.
Ahhh thanks Joshua! Your comments are always so sweet!!! They make my day! Thank you so much for being here and I hope you are well!
@@GraceWillow I'm doing okay. Taking things day by day as I'm sure we all are. Some days are better, some days not so, and that's why I'm glad to have channels like yours to watch. Those few minutes can be just enough to get through a really tough day. If you haven't heard it lately... you are appreciated. 😊
Well this clears up a lot, thank you for this video!!! I was concerned because I found our chat, when I sent you my Winter Solider arm and your account was just gone
I, for one, welcome the new chill vibes.
Hey beautiful. Always here for you, no matter what form your creativity takes ❤ kind of wish I could sit with you and we could have a big therapeutic cry together, don't know why but it sounds like we could both use one!
Welcome to the LARPing community, I believe you can help it grow.
Aw thank you! I love the LARP community and thanks for having me!!
LARP it's like cosplaying a character of your own making and you get to hit people with foam swords to that's what makes it of awesome to me how about you?
Totally down with the chill videos. Sorry to hear you've been having a crappy year, I hope it turns around for you and finishes on a high note.
Thank you Anthony! I hope it does too!! I hope you're doing well and staying sane out there!
I'd been wondering, just never asked.
