TURNING A COUCH INTO FASHION!
Vložit
- čas přidán 5. 12. 2018
- I saw a couch on the side of the road. I wondered if this couch could turn me into Jackie Kennedy or Meghan Markle.
There were trials; there were tribulations. . . But did it all work out in the end? You tell me.
Instagram: micarahtewers - Jak na to + styl
Imagine the owner of the couch watching this
Funny! But, umm - they did, like totally dump it - they're either completely amazed/totally blown away, or really jealous they never saw the potential!
should I leave a thank you note with a link to this video on their door?
@@MicarahTewers YES!!
Micarah Tewers
Just walk up and down in front of their house wearing the dress - see if they notice when they come out and see you 😉
Well, you know what they say "One man's trash is another random-lady-at-the-park-who-likes-to-make-dresses's treasure."
no. you can't be pretty, smart and funny. that's just rude.
jaz zle you forgot talented and ethereally perfect
It is thank you
Also a job and petssss
And she sings too
Can she dance?
"Who are you wearing?"
"A couch"
Princess King coAcH
😂
more like "lé coùché"
normal person: don't you mean coach?
me: yeah sure...
Lazy boy.?
“Nice outfit”
“Thanks it was a couch”
I would die to see someone’s reaction
Very "Scarlett O'Hara making a dress out of drapes" vibes.
-Who are you wearing?
-IKEA
Fun fact: hydrogen peroxide takes fresh blood stains out of nearly anything and usually won't damage or bleach the fabric. Ok. Wow. That sounds like disturbing serial killer advice, but I'm just really good at laundry.
Promise.
I vouch for this advice.
I can also vouch for this advice and just did so successfully yesterday :)
this is why girls never get caught with murder😜
@@catlikescows
Hahaha! 😂
I look innocent and my laundry game is strong.
Don't worry washed bloodstains in suspected homicides can be detected :) there are certain chemicals that glow when applied to an area blood might be even if it has been professionally removed. If u get murdered it won't go unsolved :)
WHY DOES SHE LOWKEY LOOK LIKE REGINA GEORGE
You should check out my Rachel macadamia video! I make a Regina outfit 😁
@@MicarahTewers macADAMIA im scrEAming
amanda ikrrr!!
it’s scary how she kinda looks like everyone she dresses up as
Ikkkkk
do you think all the neighbors line up at their windows every time she walks outside to model a new creation and they're like "hm what the heck did she make this time"
Love your profile pic 😂
@@madelinecreates8825 i usually watch content before i subscribe but i just subbed to you and idk why
@@joymwendwa6959
Uh- thanks! 😊
Can we start a petition to get this young lady a netflix show
No , not netflix please !
That sounds kind of cool, but then she couldn't be free to do whatever she wanted, she would have to bend to Netflix's will
I like her style better than anything netflix could do
I’ll sign it
@@oliviamaendel1110 I mean… doesn’t she already? But with our will?
Well I've never seen a couch turned into a dress before. Or pancake fashion sketches before. Clearly I have not been watching the right people. The dress turned out great.
The curved darts are called princess seams.
Thank you and thank you and THANK YOU!
It's funny how the only reply is from micarah
@@hejdjejd welp now it's not lol
Sis..... literally took a whole couch... and made fashion. Someone give this gorgeous multi-talented woman her award already
THANK YOU!
YESSSSSS
Wow
Meanwhile she was babysitting her mom🥺❤️
Not to mention she did her mock up sketches ....with pancake batter....
When I realized she was from Ohio so many things made sense
And homeschooled. And Christian!
Me and Micarah are kinda alike. I'm being homeschooled now although I don't live in USA but I'm also Christian
@@gretaweiss6802 I'm from a country where homeschool is not allowed.
Could you exmplain me how this works?
@@maerythegreek9008 basically it's when parents decide that they can do a better job educating their children than a proper school can. There are tons of online schools the kids can attend or the parent(s) can just teach them themselves. I could be wrong but I think that the children are required to take a test of some sort to make sure that they're still getting a good education, though that might vary depending on the state. For the most part there are 3 reasons why a parent might choose to do this: the child might be disabled in some way, the child might be supremely intelligent, or the family might want to incorporate their religion into the child's studies.
Out of curiosity what country do you live in where homeschooling is illegal?
@@annabisbee83 I'm from Greece!
Generally, my country dealed with illiteracy the past century,soo the goverment decided to be very strict about education.So turned to be 9 years of school are mandatory.I think it's also illigal in all of Europe.
If you ask me,sounds like homeschooling could solve many problems.Here the disabled kids go to a special school that are often not near by their houses and in many remote villages edocuation and schools were never proper.
Another question: How their parents knwo how to teach them? I mean,in elementary school it'd be easy,but what about high school?
My mom said they were called princess seams (the “foldy darts”)
I was looking for this comment. Your mom is right.
I like how she blurred the dogs face cause it was a minor but not the kids face 💀
Dani Martinez I was thinking the same thing hahahhaha 🤣
That’s what I was thinking 😂😂
HAHAHAHAHAHA
kids can give permission lmao
Time stamp?
i love how she explains it as if we’re actually going to make a dress out of a couch… 😂❤️
I mean...that was kind of her point, for people to buy fabric and make the same outfit lol or just find extra fabric
Hahaha exactly...I wish
Skylar Teri-Savage true 😂 but i just think it’s funny that it’s a couch.
Nevaeh Leigh I’m dying 😂
....bold of you to assume I wasn't
Well, you know what they say-
"One man's trash is another random-lady-at-the-park-who-likes-to-make-dresses's treasure."
stolen man
@@aribruana nobody cares
@@duaaadnan8012 i dont even remember writing that comment
Micarah: Makes tons of amazing dresses.
Me: Trys to sew a little wallet.
Also me:Bleeds out.
can i just say that i've watched a ton of sewing channels and hers is the only one that actually inspired me to start sewing??? idk the like "imma wing it" attitude she has is the only one that makes me feel i can actually accomplish something? bc she doesn't throw a bunch of info on you, she talks to you like a friend explaining to you how she did it and i think that's beautiful
Im being inspired to sewby her... but i remember myself sewing a rag thingy back in 6th grade aswell as pot holders using a dried banana stem parts... and... i was dreading it.
yeah, i made a gorgeous a line dress/ skirt two piece thingy out of a bedsheet and a pillow case.
i wanted to like the comment but it was 666 so i didnt -- i would ruin the number :')
This! This is me! Hi, me, it's me, you 😂 I don't have the patience for normal sewing and mending but I do love throwing random objects together into other useful things in general, and Micarah's content absolutely resonates with how I like to create and helps me feel motivated to start sewing for fun!
Bruhhh... Me too. I had sewn things before, but her channel really inspired me to just make things that I want cuz why not and just do it THERE ARE NO RULES~
omgggggg. I looooooove
imagine someone saying "oh I love your dress" and you're just like "thanks, its actually a couch" looool
I unnecessarily laughed and choked a little.
I just keep rewatching Micarah's videos on a loop whenever I'm in a funk and it always turns my days around! thanks for being yourself and sharing it with the internet
“Hope you enjoyed that little irrelevant panic attack”
Relatable queen...
all the clothes she makes don’t even look like she made them. she’s so talented.
Ikr! Also I replied so you can see how many likes you have now lol
@@Dana-qd1kf what a pure energy
SHE LITERALLY TOOK AN OLD COUCH AND MADE A DRESS THAT LOOKS LIKE A MILLION DOLLARS I JUST CAN'T LOVE HER ENOUGH
idk why theres no replies but hi
I am so surprised by how clever and talented this woman is, creative and so darn funny - can't believe I watched this whole video !! Keep up the great work Micarah !!
I know this video is almost two years old, but in case anyone sees this comment: you can actually remove blood stains really easily with baking soda (i.e. sodium bicarbonate). Take some baking soda, wet it just enough so it makes a paste (a few drops should be enough, it shouldn't be dripping wet), spread it on the stain, wait about 5 minutes, making sure the paste doesn't completely dry up. Remove the baking soda and boom. If it isn't completely gone just repeat the process until it is (although most of the time one application is enough).
The poor mans amber scholl I’m GONE I love you
ok i'll miss you while you're gone
Micarah Tewers 😭😭
She's almost as good as Amber!
Julie Dillis shes just as good if not better
@@klear19634 exactly! She should have millions of subscribers!!
wears hoodie for protection doesn't wear gloves
😂
Omg 😂
I am not even into sewing or even into fashion but I really enjoy watching @Micarah Tewers videos and damn she is so talented, sweet and beautiful at the same time. Really inspiring how you keep challenging yourself and have this talent of turning anything into such beautiful masterpiece like it is nothing. How do you do this magic!? Please stay the same always. PS: I love the unrelated personal things that you share all the time in your videos. It keeps me engaged. :)
For some reason this was the video that convinced me that I too could sew. I’ve always felt I wasn’t precise enough to sew well, seeing you “wing it” from a couch you found on the side of the road gives me confidence that I too can make something resembling clothes
Thank you!
2:13 "I never feel incredibly classy
Like, everybody knows I'm just the poor man's Amber Scholl" 😂😂
I just died
Woop i remember amber xD
Can we get a Micarah-Amber collab?
Ikr I died!!
That's funny, cause she's looks more like a poor man's Amber Heard!
Lol I want a collab. But I hope she has as much success too
I like how the dads face is like "what is my daughter doing..."
He supports her, though!
This video was my first time seeing her content and now she's my favorite CZcamsr I'm so glad she's getting more attention and recognition!
Micarah you are so inspiring! 💞 When I'm having a blah day I watch your videos and they spark so many ideas. Thank you so much for sharing these moments with us (Well the great moments clipped, spliced, edited, touched up, put back together, add sound effects, and glitz and voila your 2 weeks of work gives us 15 minutes of entertainment) It's like a baby duck in a diamond encrusted tuxedo. Please make more 🙏
Ok sis is definitely giselle from enchated at this point..
Hahahahahahhaahha i swear she looks like Doja Cat! Dont she?!
Shirley Dayne Vincoy nah doja is mixed and Micarahs pure white bread lol. I think she looks a ton like Rachel Mcadams though
she probably could easily do a giselle outfit if she would be up to it
She should’ve made a Giselle dress when her hair was red
hahahaha
Micarah: *explaining entire process*
Me, nodding alone pretending i'm going to make a dress out of a couch: mhmmmmmm
Lol. Mood
mood
Wul, maybe not a couch, but I have been hoarding those paint protector fabric thingies (whatthuheckarethosecalled??) to make something out of and I think they might be perrrrfect for this style of dress suit. Fo reals.
I'll just get tweed
Or some fabric a teenager would actually like
I actually made this dress but out of fabric I bought.
This is the peak of inspo for me. Thank you for being a person. I needed this.
“Do I say ‘anyway’ to much?”
Literally not even two seconds later:
“Anyway-“
Looks like something out of a Chanel collection
Jiminniepabo like a 50s Chanel
Armyyyy
Ikr. That actually looks really cool.
Vintage
ARMYYYYY😩💜
She looks so much like Regina George it’s unreal
no barbie
RIGHT. i was abt to comment the same thing
I was going to say Rachel Mcadams! So Much!
4:24 is where she looked soooo much like Reg
youtube re-recommended this video to me and it brought back so many memories of when this video was posted and i first found your channel, I remember seeing your subscriber count being lower than 100.000 and thinking "wow, I am about to watch something great happen. This girl is going to be big some day." so yeah :) I'm really proud of you and how far you've come, you absolutely deserve it! Can't wait to see the many more great things you're going to accomplish
11:05 she crosSED HER ARMS AND LEGS BEFORE ACTUALLY SITTING NOW THAT'S MODELING
“where did you get that dress?”
“a 50 year old couch i found on the side of the road.”
“oh. ok”
Can I just say it is refreshing to see such original content on youtube
OMJB THANK YOU PAL
Wat does omjb stand for lmaoo
Ms Brownie oh my Jenkins bottoms?
@@msbrownie8248 Oh my Jonas Brothers
You can easily remove a fresh blood stain with some hydrogen peroxide.
1.Thankyou (ig)
2.Where do you get hydrogen peroxide
@@Sxnny-life_x it's bleach please do not use it neat, def needs to be massively watered down or it will live a massive creamish blob on your fabric
Or use soap and cold water
@@lizzylucyn7133 If soap and water would do, you wouldn't need to bother using hydrogen peroxide.
@@lizzylucyn7133 it's not bleach, jesus, we use it to clean our cuts from different types of bacteria. I guess it's a russian thing,that's why you didn't know.
@@Sxnny-life_x in your pharmacy,usually
I am 64 and I am enjoying the heck out of your videos! I love your energy and your “swan-dive-in-ness” (yes I know- 😝). I have a stack of stuff I want to play with and now I started-yay! Keep on truckin, Micarah!
I found her channel a few months ago and she also inspires me to actually use the fabrics I’ve been holding on to for years because making things really is so fulfilling and I don’t need to take it so seriously.
the one dislike is from the person who used to own this couch but now is jealous of your dress
laughing too hard
I care so little about making clothes or sewing but this is still my favourite channel help
Help is on the way
That's literally always me.
Sewing is really fun you should try it sometime
Gina final i really like to sew, i just dont do it because I cant because i do not have the materials, skills, or time. I'd love to sew though
yep same
One of my favorite videos of yours .. a couch, its zipper & its studs into a most extrordinarly splendid suit & pill box hat .. Who else could have come up with that . Just WOW, WOW, n WOW ...
Dude the way you edit makes your jokes so much better! Love it!
Glad ya like it!! Some find it overbearing 😅
When Alex Russo said “ she’s taking her tv to prom and wearing her couch” this is what she meant
Lol now that tv is literally on our phones it works out completely
You need to go on Project Runway! Like right now!
Definitely! she would be so entertaining. And I believe she would win!
They have nothing on her 😂
She literally made clothes out of a couch
i stan she would win the unconventional challenges lmao
MegadethsGirl true. Those contests are a bit dubious .... entertaining but can't help to think that the winners always are based on something more than talent alone ...
Omg the bedbug info and the delivery by your dad. It’s so classic. Hahaha.
OH MY GOSH I AM SO OBSESSED WITH YOUR VIDEOS AND SENSE OF HUMOR! THANK YOU FOR MAKING MY DAY! 💙
Imagine your just chilling on your porch and see somebody cutting up a couch
her neighbours are used to her
They better be making a dress
I DIED.🤣
I don’t understand how you manage to do this but you amaze me every time.
I love this so much. Happy to see there are more masterbuilder-type brained people out there. Make anything out of anything, material is material!!!!
This was such a huge inspiration to start sewing. Thank you
“ I want a cookie! “ ur mom is a literal *mood*
Is that Meiling in your pfp?? 😳
That hoodie would have been little to no protection if there had been bedbugs in the couch. Also, I'm uncomfortable with how many strangers have farted on her outfit.
Both valid points.
@@MicarahTewers Also, you have to wash at at least 60 degrees C (140 degrees F) to kill bedbugs. Either way, your videos are gold, so entertaining and I am learning quite a lot, too! Especially not being too perfectionist and scared of starting projects because I don't know how..
Logic
Thank you Micarah for your sacrifice
😂
God bless your father...:) for being there to pick up that large fabric petri dish...But the end result with the pill box hat and suit definitely put you into Jackie O category. Your inventiveness is amazing.!
I've rewatched this 5 times this weekend (including Friday) just because I like listening to Micarah while I work
Was not ready for that S C I E N C E. Off to eat my math textbooks now.
don't forget to bake them first. I recommend heating the oven at 27463 degrees (celsius) for textbooks.
@@MicarahTewers They're not exactly textbooks. I'll try 675542 Kelvin.
@@SkeledroMan perfect
Micarah Tewers now if I were to eat my calculator would I be able to memorize my multiplication tables? I guess learning those just sorta fell through the cracks.
@@nicerice8439 Baking a calculator takes quite a bit of skill. You need to freeze it to absolute zero before putting it in the oven. And you can't just use any oven. You'll need a vacuum oven.
i dont even like sewing or crafting but her personality is everything
You are an endlessly multi-talented person, and you just absolutely blew my mind (and making me laugh while you were doing it!) So keep it up - I will keep coming back for more unexpected off-beat amazingness.
PS - that contoured thingie you did to the top to make it shape to your bust is called a "princess seam".
First time viewer. When you made sure you could still see the recipe on the inside of the hat, I thought I would die laughing. 👍🏻
I am a wife, mother and grandmother. You inspire me! I was never taught to sew. Now that all my children are married and I am unable to work outside of home in my profession, I have been trying to teach myself. You amaze me in every video! I wish I had just a thimble full of your talent! I wish you lived closer so you could teach us older ones a simple sewing class 😂. Keep doing great things!
Your amazing 😁😂
Pinterest has many simple nice tutorials for sewing, what needles to use, fabrics, etc.
pin.it/xxk6y5pnyqlkbz Here is my board if you're interested!
I agree with everything she said !! I have all this time on my hands and nothing to do. You are absolutely what we all need, don’t slow down, aim for something High you can achieve it 👏🏻👏🏻♥️🌷😉

THE 🗣 PANCAKE 🗣 PROTOTYPES 🗣
I have a large fancy leather recliner I have been dreaming of cutting apart like that. Thank you for the encouragement.
I didn’t know chaotic sewing videos could be a thing until I found Micarah and it’s my favourite genre now
4:13 It's just simple science really. It's so refreshing to see another designer address this issue.
Just screamed. I love you.
@@MicarahTewers Such is the natural progression. True love *does* exist.
Thank you for the science lesson I just saved 700 dollars on a college class.
I present you with this honorary degree from Micarah University. you are now Doctor Joseph Monaco, MD. Go forth and conquer.
+Micarah Tewers HAHAHHAHAHA lmao
I could never do any the amazing things she does, but I love watching because she’s hilarious and her voice is comforting to listen to 😂
Omg. You have some imagination thinking of recycling a couch into a beautiful garment. You make sewing so easy. 👏👏👏👏👏
"Everybody knows I'm the poor man's Amber Scholl" I subscribed after that sentence

I was so impressed, I clapped at that reveal, which is a first for me since Drag Race, season 6. Found your channel today (late to the party) and oh my lawd, you are literally sewing inspiration. Have a good night 💖

“The poor man’s Amber scholl” 😂 but honestly you’re in your entirely own category! I love amber (and I mean no shade) but you actually sew and don’t just use e6000 glue for everything
Lol that's just because the e6000 fumes make me sick. THANK YOU
Ahahah yeah she is more talented and creative than amber.
@@juliedillis4923 I agree 100%. DIY should be more than spending $100s on rhinestones and gluing them onto random shit.
@@Wierdgirl5834 i really love amber she's awesome and she has great taste in shopping but her diy's are kind of shitty...ahahahah
Or as amber would say "trashy" hahaha
You are such a sewing genius. I love how you make it seem so sloppy but the end result is always unexpectedly breathtaking 😂
haha Sloppy is the only process I know. THANK YOU
you are such a chaotic neutral. it's great. fashion sketches via pancake batter? lol!
This was funny as hell. And I liked the just do it vibe!
Dude, don't call yourself a poor man's Amber Scholl. Though I'm a fan of her, she can't sew as well as you
oh my goodness Miss Weirdo, you flatter me.
Your right she just uses glue
Yeah she just uses a butt load of glue HAHHA
No matter how rich Amber is, Micarah's sewing skills are through the roof 😂
Amber is the glue Queen you are the sewing Queen kapum 😂
When he says he likes girls who recycle.

But seriously this couch was NOT expecting such a transformation and neither was I *slow claps*
connor
This is the one that made me binge watch all of micarah's videos 😂
"Everybody knows I'm the poor man's Amber Scholl" 🤣🤣 I deeply appreciated this statement!
How cool would it bee if they actually did a collab together. Like Micarah can show Amber how to make era clothes. Ooooo I'd LIVE for them doing a skit together playing dress up of course😂
It's so satisfying to watch someone wing so much of a project and still be so successful anyway because that's my preferred way of doing most things. And I always thought I couldnt sew because you can't work like that, you have to be all exact, but now you've inspired me to try it out anyway because apparently you can indeed work like that
yes, yes you can! It definitely fails occasionally, but that's irrelevant bc winging is what keeps it fun.
That is so encouraging!
you literally turned an old crusty couch into Chanel i'm.... 😩💖
Omg this is amazing!! Big props to you to putting in all the effort required to tear that sofa apart, you are truly inspiring!! It came out perfect
I have no idea how you came up with that idea, but you are a talented, talented lady! Great job!
