PSA: when putting glass in the oven you should warm it up along with the oven. If you put the glass in without allowing it to warm up will crack it due to the difference in temperature
True!! Except when it's ovensafe like Pyrex, some glasses are. 😊
And if it cracks do not put it in water or try to cool it down immediately, it will literally explode
I was curious about the glass cracking ! Thanks for this tip!
Fun thing, you can intentionally crack marbles by heating them up in the oven and putting them in ice water. The resulting marbles are still spherical but have more interesting internal structure.
I'd love a "that cost how much" for christmas decor or some christmas gift ideas. Not the typically candle or bath/body gift, but something nice for a person who wants cute decor without getting it new or feeling like they're pressuring friends into spending lots ♡
Great idea!
Love this!
Literally wreathes. I love making them and I hate to see prices in stores
PSA: should definitely add a warning on the thrifted glass candle since not all glass is heat resistant and meant to have flames in them. You don't want to injure your loved ones by shattering glass shards. Defintely look for thrifted candle holders or something actually meant to burn candles in to be safe.
Thank you! I was given Vintage candlestick holders that exploded in front of me when the candle ran low. Before that, I had no idea that could happen 😬
I had this happen to me and it started a fire on my dresser, so yes this is very important!!
Glass that is the same thickness over the entire vessel is usually able to handle it. If it has thin sides and a thick bottom - typical - it will prolly crack.
Really loved the fun way you guys are playing with editing now (moving around the inanimate objects in a stop motion way)!! Super cute.
Also absolutely adore that you’re leaving all of the personality and mistakes in. For a while there, it felt like you guys were maybe polishing too much out, but I’m glad to see you’re getting back to your roots :))
Fave DIY (that I’m stealing) was the cutlery holder!!
FUN FACT : did you know that bougie in french means candle, yeah so this IS a bougie bougie haha . From a french girl ;)
You can do the match holder with a round flat plate made from the same clay and roll a very long thin sausage shape same clay and roll it round and round in a coil to build your sides.... 😘
🤯
@@sarahdossor296 I think you posted this in the wrong place...aha
Considering they live in Canada, probably ;p
Ahah C’est vrai ça me fait toujours aussi rire 😂
I love this so much. Every time I see a “DIY gifts people ACTUALLY want” video I sigh bc nobody ever actually makes good diy gifts *tea*. But these are ACTUALLY good gifts that I want t keep for myself....thank you SO much
Candle in French is "bougie" lol so it's funny how much you called it that
That silverware holder is great. I take real silverware every day with my lunch box as well as a cloth napkin, but many people I work with do it and this would be a nifty gift to make them!
These were so wholesome and eco friendly which just adds more of a bouji vibe.
"Actually I'm just gonna go ahead and manifest that." -My new motto 2020
Be careful with the candle DIY - you want to make sure you have a heat-safe glass. If you don’t, it could crack in the oven or when the candle is lit.
Loved the stop motion bits! And I legit thought you'd made a harp- that effect was so on point!
Kelsey sounds like she JUST discovered the word ‘bougie/boujee’
LOL
Sounds like my parents when they discover a new slang word.
And that’s supposed to be positive or constructive because?
Philippe Soublière lmao calm down it’s a cute comment
Yeah I’d just been reading a bunch of comments that were saying like take shots every time she says it and stuff and I was kinda annoyed so I may have misinterpreted that 😂
Philippe Soublière I gotchu lol
Yeah parents hey😀 My dad use to say my brother's friend came out of the wardrobe. He meant closet😁😂😊
I feel like if you'd made a flat piece of clay by rolling it out, used a cookie cutter for the base and cut a rectangle for the circle piece, it might've looked better. Like you link the rectangle by short side, and place it long side down onto the cookie cut circle piece.... Idk
Emilie MacDonald you’re describing a slab-build for a cup/bowl! It’s a legit ceramics technique.
It's called "warping the loom" because those threads are called warp threads! :) In any woven fabric, the threads running one direction are called the warp threads, and the threads running parallel to them are called the weft threads. So there's the warp and the weft. :D
I love watching these videos but i barely ever diy any gifts.
Me and you both☺
i also find the presentation of the gift makes it seem more fun/boujee/thoughtful. i wanted to get a gift for one of my friends but she's very picky so makeup, clothes were out of the question, i also didn't have a big budget. so i bought a bigger jar with a cute lid, got a bunch of mini chocolates, a small snow globe and some decor stars and filled the jar. tissue paper on the bottom, snow globe in the middle surround by chocolate and glittery mini stars. looked really cute, way better than just putting the chocolate and snow globe in gift bag
love these old videos!! nostalgic visiting them!!
So funny: earlier today I saw your gift ideas video from last year and thought “man, I wish they would make a new one!“
Soooo thank you :)
great ideas!! I love the candle one. I save all the leftover wax from my Bath & Body candles so I should make some little candles from those. I use them in my wax melter, like Scentsy, but I could make candles too. Thanks for the great tips!!!
Hey Kelsey! I don't know if someone has commented already, but from someone who knows something about weaving, the reason it's called "warping" is because fabric is made of intertwined fibers, one going vertical and one hortizonal. One is called the warp, and one the weft. Hope that helps!
Aw, your match holder is so cute, and could be used for so many different things! To hold hair bands, jewellery, anything really! And the candle idea is absolute genius, thank you! ☺️ x
Any ideas as to how to store your utensils once they're dirty? Worried about how someone would get them home after using them without dirtying their pouch?
Tip rubbing alcohol or clay softener will moisten the clay and remove fingerprints before baking
5:55 the one kelsy did is called a thumb pot where you use your thumb to start making the pot basically.
Another type of pot you could make is a coil pot where you roll a big sausage with the clay and then you wind it round to create the shape of the pot that you want, then you smoothen the sides of the pot and it should be in a nice shape
thumb pot? I've only heard it called a pinch pot, cause you pinch your fingers together to thin out the clay. Guess there are a few names for it.
Stephinachan13 I was also taught that it’s called a pinch pot.
Yup, I said aloud “pinch pot” when watching her technique. The last time I said “pinch pot” was probably in 1997 when I made one in fifth grade art class and it turned out looking like ... a pinched pot... :/
And for the candles you could totally add essential oils in it while its melted
The reason its called "warping" the loom is because when you're making a woven fabric, the vertical strands are called the warp, and the horizontal strands are called the weft! So since you are putting in the vertical strands, you are "warping" :)
The Warp are the threads that go length ways in fabric and the Weft are the threads that go left to right (weft to right ;) ) across the width of the fabric. Thus "Warping the loom" is setting up the length way threads.
These ideas are amazing! Love the match striker holder and the little fabric case with utensils!!!
i think i'm going to make the utensil kit for myself for christmas! i start uni soon and that kit is so cute!
Hey Kelsey! For the matchstick bowl, I’d recommend looking up “pinch pots.” It’s an ancient method for making cups and bowls and is the very first thing you learn in hand building ceramics classes.
That cutlery holder is such a good idea and honestly... I want it for my purse since I always forget my cutlery when I'm at work 🤦🏻♀️
i’m really about to take $2 wax melts from walmart and make a 20$ yankee candle GENUIS
Please do another "Turning junk into cute tree ornaments" 😁😁
"As someone who doesn't loom" yep, you definitely don't weave 😂❤ Absolutely beautiful projects!
I love the candle and match stick striker ideas! So cute!
I really like this style, it was fun to see the office in the background and I liked how it seemed like Kelsey was just having a conversation with me! This felt very laid back and personal and I loved it!
i'm usually not inspired by gift diys, but i am by these ones,,, also might have to go out and diy my own loom because weaving sounds super fun ngl
It's called warping because the vertical yarns (or length of fabric yarns) are called warp threads. They were originally called ends.
The yarns that you interlace through the warp yarns are now called weft yarns. They originally called picks and the process of putting weft thread through the separated warp threads (the shed) is called picking.
PLEASE MAKE ANOTHER ONE OF THESE THIS YEAR IT WAS A LIFE SAVER!!!!!! PLEASEEEEEE
what is the odds that I just happened too log in too yt right right efter this video was uploaded? best day ever!
Love the reusable kit!
Can we just take a moment to recognise the skill level of the editor(s)... Wowsers . The music and the stop motion graphics, LEVELS!!!
I'm subscribed for the content BUT trust, I low key learn ways to improve my video editing on my Channel.
Thought I'd just let the guys in the back know, we see you too bro's, we see you too
I LOVE THIS VIDEO!! The editing, the diy, the vibe, Kelsey being Kelsey... All of it ♥️
That candle hack is brilliant
These are all actually really awesome! I've been wanting a travel utensils kit myself. I appreciate how environmentally conscious y'all are .
I love the strike holder, its so cute. I love how it's not so refined and looks handcrafted like how ceramics used to be made. I think it would look so good using one of your speckled methods on it before adding the green paint to just add to the pottery look.
That's why I love you guys! The gifts are probably the cutest ones! 😍😍💕
I'm making myself the loom, because that looks adorable
Love the match holder and striker idea.
What a genius idea to DIY something to DIY. Boooom. Blew my mind. Amazing the cutlery kit
I LOVE the diy utensils - will try that for sure! Thanks!
haha the match striker was kinda a miss, looked like something I made in prek art but loved everything else!
Was that candle heavily inspired by the Homesick Candles brand? Same style sticker and you mentioned labeling it with your hometown, just like the Homesick candles idea.
Omg I loved this the ideas are so cute and original! ❤️
How little we new about how useful boogie handsanitier would be lol.
That diy utensil holder though!!!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
This is the first diy video that I actually want to make the things
These are all so clever and unique!!
Lowkey love the loom idea, these were all great!
these are so adorable! I cannot wait to make some of these!
Very beautiful the loom!!! And I think it's easy to do...I'am going to try!!!
Love the cutlery roll. I need to make one and get cutlery too. Knitting needle and crochet hook holders is another thing I need to make...
I’m pretty sure it’s called warping the frame because you are adding the warp threads. The threads going down fabric are warp threads & the ones going across are weft threads. I’m a fabric lover
the loomboard is so wholesome! omg this perfect for my best friend!!!!
I cannot wait to make myself that cutlery holder and looming kit.
When there’s still a month until Christmas but I already know I’ll probably need these last minute ideas 😬
Super cute ideas! I was watching this while using my homemade loom i made last year haha! I would love to see some weaving videos I'm still learning!
Loooooove the little stop-motion animations ❤️
Those stop motion is fineeeeeee 👌🏼
The little stop motions were so cute!
Ooh I love these and love the candle label idea
omg I LOVE the candle idea! I want to make one for each of my friends and use the label for cutesy notes of love for each of em ❤️
i love the small pictures next to the subtitles!
This was so fricken helpful! I had no clue what to do for some of my extended family and this has definitely given me a few things to work with :)
I love the stop motion clips! So cute!!
Love the stop motion. 💕 Such great editing
all your diy ideas are really cute so i'm not surprised you found ideas for this video!
These are actually so cute and good!!
Carving hash marks along the base of match stick holder before baking would be better than gluing sand. Less messy
I really dug this video, good job Kelsey 💖 The utensil kit is genius! I really want one now, I didn't even know this was a thing, and the grey linen with the bamboo, amber glass jar and the straw ± straw cleaner?! 😍 Also, now I wanna make and design the match holder and diy candle. Thanks for showing me such an easy way to do this xx
WOW. I love that angora sweater she is wearing. amazing. anyone knows where I can get a similar sweater? I love to wear angora too. its so soft.
super cute ideas, and I loved the little stop motion editing!
Thank ya'll for that video its truly helpful!!!
I just got gifted a sewing machine and I have no idea how to use it haha but I’m excited to learn
omg i LOVE the diy loom kit!!
Love your ideas! I'd love to receive all of them myself, but I'm anxious to try them to gift.
Excellent ideas. Nice work Kelsey BTW, looking forward to your house reno videos 💕💕💕
Love the little stop motion bits!!
I LOVE The loom idea!
SO much fun!!! Love these!
I loooove these ideas!
Stop motion was so cute! 😍
i loved all these wow and they were very good ideas that i would actually use
The “kitten”/“button” pronunciation isn’t wrong or lazy, it’s called a glottal stop and it’s actually phonetically correct (at least in American/Canadian accents that I’m aware of). Think of how you say “uh-oh”-it’s the same thing! :-)
Love them!
Amazing how long ago this feels like now that you're in the new office. I loved the coziness of this one, but watching ya'll evolve has been so incredibly exciting.
I'm sure somebody else already commented, but you can only use a lighter or a match to seal a rope if it's a synthetic fiber. Natural fibers just burn but you can "whip" (i think that's the word) the ends with string or dental floss.
Thinking about making a cutlery set for myself & others . Thank you for the diy! I might include a small bougie dishwashing soap in it so they can be washed right away and keep the roll clean :)
Love the silverware one. My friend and I just went out to eat the other day, and she was saying she needed to start bringing her own silverware!
