- There's a new grocery store in New York, but don't try to eat any of the food inside. "8 'Till Late" is an art installation from British artist Lucy Sparrow that sells products you would typically find in an NYC bodega, except everything is made out of felt. It's perfect for Instagramming, and yes, there's even a bodega cat.

Imagine a drunk person trying to buy stuff in there and seeing the vegetables with eyes
literally the plot of sausage party
izzybola but he was high on meth
Erick Hernandez it was bath salts but I guess you'd get the same reaction

"I don't think this is vodka"
imagine robbing the cashier
Cashier gives you felt cash
Honestly, that'd be the best karma. Then they'd put you in felt prison where you'd be forced to to take a big felt c**k by felt Bob.
+Phylicia Stevens Best Comment EVER Lol
Fresh Lou 💀💀😂😂😂😂
Fresh Lou rob with felt gun
Fresh Lou they had real cash.
I literally came just to make a pun. And they were all stolen.
It’s Sew sad.
Omg shut up 😂
How do you delete someone else's comment?
I know how you Felt
Regular store: *kid runs into shelf and gets hurt*
Felt store: *I run into shelf and fall asleep*
Wolf Star Productions me in life
Wolf Star Productions hahaha
Maqaroon Wolfie I feel like a kid would fall asleep if they ran head first into a shelf
Fun fact, the fabric section isn't made of felt, it's made of things commonly found in a grocery store.
Henry Zhou uh... you don't find fabric in your typical grocery store.. or is that just me..
Haiying Zeng you do. Walmart, Meijer, and even some dollar stores have a fabric section
yeah, but I've never been to a Bodega with an entire fabric section.
Fun fact, there isn't a fabric section in grocery stores
Toxic Quartz Walmart also sells clothes & electronics. Doesn't count as a grocery store
At first I was like, 'That's silly.' But then when I realized it was all for sale I was like, 'That's genius!'
Same! Lol
Nahomi Santana She worked hard to make them.
hyde1885 Way too expensive, I love to sew but when I sell for stalls one of those packets would cost £5 or less, the fruit would cost about £1.50 each.
hyde1885 60 dollars for a bag of doritos made of felt
me:Shut up and take my money!
At first I was like... that's dumb... Then I saw it was all on sale then thought who tf would really buy this? Then I remembered that dumb things attract dumb people
Really? Only six months for all of that!?
What a legend.
charlene fearon must’ve been a large group of volunteers
charlene fearon ikr
If she did that by herself, she would have to continuously have to do one every 28 minutes, and that’s if she never slept or cleaned or went to the bathroom or had time off. It’s literally impossible to do that.
Shaggy has Cancer right
Yeah six months because there are many people working on it
Wow. I assumed that all of the items would've been sewed by a sewing machine, but ALL of them by HAND? Now that's perseverance, determination, and hard-work alright. That would've took me multiple YEARS to make those 9,000 items, not 6 months! Lucy Sparrow is just..wow. My mind was completely BLOWN.
Ellie Kim maybe a lot of ppl volunteered for working on the felt thing
"Why did you make a whole store out of felt?"
"Cuz I felt like it"
Ben Mulqueen nice job copying the top comment
Kick Em where it at
Ben Mulqueen ik I have the worst humor ever but I actually laughed at ur joke omgg lmaoo
Nice.
I fell right into that one reading it out loud. xD
at this point,
*ONLY 6 MONTHS????*

this is legitimately scary to me for some reason. Like what if you suddenly found a felt human that functions with felt organs wanting to make everything it found out of felt.
SrgtBarney just fuck its guts till it dies

There isn't any point in the shop after the stock is gone.
I still want to visit it whether it's full or empty
I mean, after its all sold she'll have like 42k.. More than the average american makes a year
Is it weird that this gave me so much inspiration to do my schoolwork for 8.6 seconds and then I suddenly got lazy again? 😂
Holana What?😂
Holana hmmm i know how you feel
Nope. I do my homework for like 3 seconds and BOOM another notification
Holana WE here is be a all inspired next day nah that ain't for me

I was just thinking that.
Trainer Red What do you think about the gunners no it would be quartz instead of the best Western Hotel in the whole North America in the world and i respect Spurs in the UCL guys watched Real Madrid Plaza Hotel in Berlin and that's what is your channel including in the whole point.
I think it's so cool that people could buy the "products"! They're part of a larger installation, but they're also complete art pieces in themselves! How many art installations let you buy pieces of it to take home? And now there are presumably thousands of New Yorkers with little fragments of this installation sitting on a shelf or in a drawer! I love that!
Every time I rediscover this video I love it a little more
1:42 Felt eggs cost $70 ?
Tropical Magic I think you buy the who dozen
Tropical Magic maybe you pay with felt money💀
Tropical Magic yes, yes they do
Tropical Magic again, maybe plushie with velcro with pretend egg liquid inside. Its not cheap, it DID take 6 months to make
Isabel Chiang but it's ONE egg
jee wouldn't it be a shame if it caught on fire
NotYourKouhai wow I just realized that
Diaben0u0 obviously
unless it's all flame retardant
I’m really tempted to bring a lighter and light the entire store in flames
just dont take a jar of bed bugs in there
Me: I wanna go there right now
Video: Open until June 30, 2017
Me again: I'll never gonna experience that good Food
The fruits and veggies are SO CUTE!!
Unfortunately the store was shut down after about 2000 copyright infringement lawsuits were filed.
PhillyPhan copyright for the actual brands used?
Where did you hear that?
I searched online and there was no news that the store had a copyright infringement lawsuit or that it was shut down
GoddessGothicLolita She was quite obviously being sarcastic 😐😂
can u peeps take jokes
fucking idiots, it's clearly a joke lmao
I just felt the need to leave this comment.
Get it?😌
I'm sorry
B)
burn
puns how i love them
I FELT SO GOOD FOR HIM FOR MAKING THIS
I’ll go now.
this is just straight up AMAZING!!!!
Watch her get robbed, and when the criminal points the gun at her and tells her to empty the cash register, green felt strips come out.
Dhruv Gramopadhye yeah whith a felt gun
Dhruv Gramopadhye "we also sell felt bullets for $15 each"
Dhruv Gramopadhye “*PUT THE MONEY IN THE PREMIUM FELT BAG, BOUGHT FROM THIS STORE PRECISELY AT **4:20** IN THE AFTERNOON!* “
Dhruv Gramopadhye LOL, don't worry she will call the cops quickly *with the felt phone*
Shouraru Um are you talking to me??

that sounds like a steal if you'd ask me
This is amazing!!
Thats so awesome and cute! Really cute when the mouse was in the bucket xD
It's actually kinda trippy seeing everything made out of felt
ericbazinga true it is like the sausage party but real life

piepklein konijntje hahahaha

Perfect store for North Korea
LOOOL
Ohhh good one! ;D
Hsbfbsnd Bebfbdns doesn't understand
Wohoho!! that's a good one!!
Xia North Korea has restricted access to everything. They never have things that are completely real
That's awesome! It looks like a set from Don't Hug Me I'm Scared!
Now we need an eggos one for eleven
I FELT pretty good after watching that
Oh your so funny XD
Lbagames that pun was better when you have that pic
Tam Lye Tiam overwatch is overrated
Wow very funny pun just like mine...
I'm very lonely :(
+Lbagames never FELT it coming
Lol this is what Kim Jong Un would show his foreigners to show how well they feed their citizens
Guy Buddy they use snow as Propaganda hah. It's in CZcams just search North Korea propaganda it's one of the vids
Guy Buddy You got that from "The Interview" xD
Guy Buddy 표현상 팬 팬 초호화 (good idea)
TheStudentLocal Randomizer22 Same
YUP
This makes me feel so happy
That's a great job! Well done
the thing people fail to realise is shes an artist who opened up a really neat installation. treat it as a gallery and you buy pieces you enjoyed, at an actual affordable price. most gallery prices are in the hundreds and even thousands, thats just people off the street at a small installation. the fact that she made thousands of really quality pieces, out of felt, in 6 months is overwhelmingly fast. she had to not only create these pieces but pay for the supplies, the rental space, and who ever helped her set it up. im almost certain there are other costs as well. theyre $20 for a pack of gum because she has to make her money back.
its like when people go to an art museum and buy a $10 magnet, only youre actually getting a piece of the art for a reasonable price. people go to toya r us and buy a $60 dollar stuffed minecraft enderdragon for their kid who ignores it after Christmas. i think a realistic bottle of jager out of felt is a much more intresting buy! has a story behind it too. so whatever you know, its not the worst thing.
I was gonna read your comment til i clicked read more then i just acted like i forgot how to read
Vito vit •sees comment, presses read more• , says 'Nope' •skips overly long comment•
Vito vit it should be geared towards dog owners because they look like dog toys
MiyuxxKankuro Yes, materials can be cheap. But you aren't factoring the time she took to make it (Where I live minimum wage is 11 USD an hour,) the fact that she is British so she may have had to fly here, ship the art here, and stay somewhere in the city, and the fact that she has to rent that building where the installation is at. On top of that she has to turn a profit large enough to live off of for several months and large enough to buy new art supplies for her next project. Her work is actually surprisingly affordable (look at custom plush sold online and a lot is 20-50 USD.)
That's the thing about art. You aren't buying the raw materials, you are buying a finished product that took time to make. Besides, no one is forcing you to buy the work.
Vito vit to much text and still you don't realize it's not art.
Hmm, they're lying. The employees aren't felt.
saltyamy i think that would be a violation of their rights!!!
😂😂
The shelves are wood
funny
saltyamy my
saltyamy my

This is so amazing!
This is the most amazing thing ever
There is NO WAY one person made all this in six months. I've personally hand sewed with felt for years, and it can be quite tedious. It takes hours and hours to complete a little project. She must have had a team helping. A lot of her lettering is glued on too, which can cut down in time but doesn't look as nice as hand embroidery. It is goals AF though.
LilVal exactly what i was thinking. even if she never slept it just wouldn't happen
Oh yeah! she definitely had help
LilVal quit hatin', she totally could have done this herself. She probably has no life like me therefore has plenty of time to sew all this crap... 🤔😒😔😢😭😤😧
nahhhhhh trust me, theres no way one person did this all alone
LilVal I'm twelve n we did this in design and technology class it wasn't time consuming at all i made a birthday card in a 50 minute lesson it's not that hard either
I want to make a pun, but I've never FELT it in me 😂
Ok I'll go now...
Manav Surti 😂😂😂
You didn't feel what In you ? 😂
Don't mind me , my Brain is messed up.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
+Kasandra Garcia same?tf do you mean
Manav Surti I don't get it
This is beyond creative!
Looks cool. They went into great detail.
This is neat. I would buy something in there if I lived in New York.
Jennifer A this is in New York!?? I live in New York
Natalie Yay Yes in the description it says NYC
Jennifer A I live in New York and didn't even know it was here
I live in NY and I wouldn't buy this stuff. Cute, but I'm not wasting money on it.
I would buy only a nutella felt thing
So sad is temporary.
Christian Djami Ikr people always say change is good but to me it's the worst thing in the world besides being lonely...
Christian Djami They're selling the stuff in there so it has to close eventually
Remus Lupin I wouldn't care less
Remus Lupin
Professor Lupin!!! I thought you got killed in the Battle of Hogwarts! !
There's prolly a sweat shop in the back if you look in the 'break room' !!! HAHA
this is so adorable. i really like it ;-;💗
I FELT like this was the right time to make a pun
Daysha Clark 😂😂😂😂
You really need to try HARDER
Get it cause felt is soft
Daysha Clark
Those are some good puns
But they would look better on my bedroom floor.
Daysha Clark I Felt a laugh coming. Get it? A laugh... Bc that pun was fun&ny
yee
9000 items in 6 months? That's 50 items a day. More than 3 items per hour, every single hour, 7 days a week for 6 months, if she slept 8 hours a night. Impressive that one girl designed the whole thing but unimpressive that she had a factory sew it all.
You really calculated this lololol...please by my math teacher
Natalie Nathan Pretty sure you just don't bother to do the math yourself
How is it unimpressive, exactly? Would you also say that an architect has to build a house by hand and also design it for it to be impressive?
+FanOfGravityFalls *facepalm*
If she did it all day and slept eight hours then she could've done it herself
I’m just imagining someone actually in need of an atm and then realizing it’s made of felt 😂
That is really cool, a true crafter!
9,000 ITEMS IN 6 MONTHS?! IF I WERE THAT LADY THAT WOULD TAKE ME 4 YEARS
BECAUSE OF LAZINESS!! GEEZ!!!
AJ Da Randomness Channel Did you just assume her gender? Excuse me, It's 2017 still!

AJ Da Randomness Channel If it were me it would be 4 items

Best joke ever...
Omg I love the popcorn and sausages sooo cute!!!
I've never *felt* so amused by art
Its all fun and games until someone thinks its a real store and tries to rob the felt cash machine thinking to himself "it was at this moment..he knew..he F***** up".
but the money is real, so it doesn't matter
Prep he held her at felt gun point
V1C70R14 I doubt they would put real money in a fake machine
Prep You just had to go there didn't you fuck
it would still be fun and games
Those poor, unsuspecting potheads. Late-night Munchie runs will never be the same to them.
RJTheHero ahah
this can serve as an adult's play room
•은하 I read your comment wrong I thought u said it would make a great adult porn room
This artist is insane. Is it so bad that I love her work?
HAHA, I guess she FELT really accomplished after she finished it.
Did I seriously just do that?
*Likes own comment to pretend that someone cares*
That was a really heartFELT comment
THAT'S MY OPINIONNN yes you did
woooow
THAT'S MY OPINIONNN you stay right there in calling the police.

I see you every where tf
YOU'RE EVERYWHERE
Dat I've seen u in another vid
I love how you sewed faces on the fruits and veggies.
SO CUTE!!☺😃😄😊😉😗😙😚😘😅😅
That's really detailed, I would probably pass out doing this.
I was low key expecting the shelves to be made of felt, and that there would be felt covering the ceiling, walls, and floor.
The shelves are covered in felt but not the floor, walls, or ceiling. The freezer is felt too
I also thought that the air was going to be felt ):
*Pulls out felt gun* THIS IS A STICK UP!
I am sitting here while eating my felt chips
Epic & genius!!! EXTRAVAGANT!
That looks amazing!
Do they have felt bathrooms?
Nope but I'm down to be felt in a bathroom...
I'm a Giraffe HAH
People poop felt there
PhantomPanic dead 😂😂😂
PhantomPanic I'm done..
Tech Insider: The items are ranged around 25$ to 65$
Me:*sees a shelf that says 20$
plus tax
Gina's Creations which would still only be $21.60 lol 25% tax??
Gregory Lawrence
It was a joke
1:22 C;
This is AMAAAAZING!
Finally something nice in your channel
She took 6 months to create 9,000 items
And I will take the same time to create 1 item
😂
JackStyle Games is take 6 months to make one piece of popcorn
Haters will say those products are fake
Cami D. 😂😂😂
No, it is not made from real felt, it's made from fake felt.
Wow 6 months is honestly pretty quick to make all of those felt products!! 🍭🍬
this is so cute and cool i wish i could go there and hug everything!
Critic states he's still deciding how he "felt" about the experience.
casadilla111 good one
Somebody has a lot of time on their hands to be able to do this lol

KnedlaDuke obviously not
KnedlaDuke lol umm it’s a detail that’s in normal shops sooo..
KnedlaDuke Its supposed to look like a real store. They added that for decoration.
KnedlaDuke if that's the case then I can't buy a pack of cigarettes in that store!
KnedlaDuke in Finland you can buy alcohol at age of 18
Wow that is......
AMAZING!!!!!
this kind of thing makes me happy to be alive
