0:00:00.070,0:00:02.140
- Swifties I come in peace, okay.

0:00:02.140,0:00:03.530
Stream folklore.

0:00:03.530,0:00:04.850
I'm just kind of winging it.

0:00:04.850,0:00:06.150
Here goes nothing.

0:00:06.150,0:00:09.373
- These tiny ones are[br]murderously difficult.

0:00:11.401,0:00:12.760
Look how beautiful.

0:00:12.760,0:00:13.593
- Oh my God.

0:00:14.540,0:00:17.541
I'm actually speechless right now.

0:00:17.541,0:00:20.624
(upbeat flute music)

0:00:22.247,0:00:24.980
- Hey besties, this is your[br]reminder to go drink water,

0:00:24.980,0:00:26.200
if you haven't already today.

0:00:26.200,0:00:28.510
Welcome back to yet another episode of

0:00:28.510,0:00:31.660
Amanda doing random things on her channel.

0:00:31.660,0:00:34.945
I'm tired of being confined to[br]a small sized piece of paper

0:00:34.945,0:00:37.820
and I'm breaking free of those shackles.

0:00:37.820,0:00:40.070
I've been wanting to do bigger[br]art projects on my channels

0:00:40.070,0:00:42.570
besides like the regular[br]bullet journal stuff.

0:00:42.570,0:00:45.330
But I didn't really know[br]exactly what I wanted to do

0:00:45.330,0:00:48.910
until I had a nice, little video call

0:00:48.910,0:00:51.670
with my fellow Toronto[br]YouTuber @withwendy.

0:00:51.670,0:00:52.890
If you guys don't know who she is,

0:00:52.890,0:00:55.450
she is an awesome YouTuber who sews stuff.

0:00:55.450,0:00:57.080
She DIYs stuff.

0:00:57.080,0:00:59.840
And she is just a lovely,[br]lovely human being.

0:00:59.840,0:01:01.327
We put it on the back burner for a while

0:01:01.327,0:01:04.860
until the Grammys that happened recently.

0:01:04.860,0:01:06.957
And she immediately[br]messaged me and was like,

0:01:06.957,0:01:07.820
"how about this?"

0:01:07.820,0:01:10.457
She sends me a picture of Taylor Swift's

0:01:10.457,0:01:13.080
lovely outfit from the Grammys.

0:01:13.080,0:01:15.150
And it's just with all these flowers

0:01:15.150,0:01:18.330
all over her dress that[br]are, like, hand embroidered

0:01:18.330,0:01:19.920
and she just looks great.

0:01:19.920,0:01:23.070
She looks chef's kiss, very cottage core.

0:01:23.070,0:01:26.850
You know, today I will be[br]hand-painting a ton of flowers

0:01:26.850,0:01:30.610
so that me and Wendy can[br]recreate Taylor Swift's look.

0:01:30.610,0:01:32.820
I'm in charge of the flowers

0:01:32.820,0:01:34.460
and then I'm gonna pass it off to her.

0:01:34.460,0:01:38.460
It's gonna be kind of[br]like an art DIY relay.

0:01:38.460,0:01:41.230
It'll be cool for me to see how the actual

0:01:41.230,0:01:42.340
final project turns out

0:01:42.340,0:01:45.450
because I won't be there to[br]see how she puts it together.

0:01:45.450,0:01:47.820
I'll only see, you know what I paint

0:01:47.820,0:01:51.690
and then it'll be magically[br]transformed into this garment.

0:01:51.690,0:01:54.693
This is the fabric that I have over here.

0:01:55.770,0:01:57.990
Wendy and I did a little handoff,

0:01:57.990,0:01:59.340
it felt like we were passing

0:01:59.340,0:02:01.360
off illegal substances or something.

0:02:01.360,0:02:02.240
- [Amanda] I got the goods.

0:02:02.240,0:02:04.120
- Yay![br]- [Amanda] Thank you.

0:02:04.120,0:02:06.506
I will see you at the next drop off.

0:02:06.506,0:02:08.740
- Social distance drop off

0:02:08.740,0:02:10.080
Mission accomplished.

0:02:10.080,0:02:12.170
All right, bye.[br]- Bye.

0:02:12.170,0:02:13.830
- There's a lot of fabric.

0:02:13.830,0:02:15.810
Now looking at it,

0:02:15.810,0:02:20.400
I think I did underestimate[br]how much I would have to paint.

0:02:20.400,0:02:21.467
I was like to Wendy.

0:02:21.467,0:02:23.750
"Yeah. Yeah. I'll paint all those flowers.

0:02:23.750,0:02:24.583
No worries.

0:02:24.583,0:02:26.520
I can finish that."

0:02:26.520,0:02:27.880
But I'm gonna have to buckle down

0:02:27.880,0:02:30.520
and do it, for the Swifties.

0:02:30.520,0:02:32.030
For the Swifties.

0:02:32.030,0:02:34.499
I feel like I'm unlocking[br]a whole side of YouTube

0:02:34.499,0:02:37.710
that I don't know if I[br]wanna be messing with,

0:02:37.710,0:02:39.700
the Swifties are too powerful.

0:02:39.700,0:02:41.820
Swifties I come in peace, okay.

0:02:41.820,0:02:43.340
Stream Folklore.

0:02:43.340,0:02:44.870
All right, so let's just get started.

0:02:44.870,0:02:46.010
I'm gonna lay out this fabric

0:02:46.010,0:02:48.780
so we can have one nice[br]big space to work on.

0:02:48.780,0:02:50.819
I'll probably just be[br]working on it on the floor.

0:02:50.819,0:02:52.853
So RIP my back.

0:02:55.780,0:02:57.570
- [Amanda] Oh my God.

0:02:57.570,0:02:59.353
That is a lot of fabric.

0:03:01.850,0:03:03.470
I've never painted on fabric before

0:03:03.470,0:03:06.120
so I didn't know exactly what to get.

0:03:06.120,0:03:09.210
I got two different types of fabric paint.

0:03:09.210,0:03:12.530
This one is Castle Arts.

0:03:12.530,0:03:15.709
Castle Arts 3D Fabric Paint.

0:03:15.709,0:03:17.730
I'm assuming since it says 3D,

0:03:17.730,0:03:20.860
it's gonna be a little bit[br]like puffy paint almost.

0:03:20.860,0:03:23.300
So maybe that'll give[br]us some nice texture.

0:03:23.300,0:03:24.360
I thought it would be nice,

0:03:24.360,0:03:26.165
especially since a lot[br]of the flowers kinda

0:03:26.165,0:03:31.165
have that 3D look on her dress.

0:03:31.360,0:03:34.860
And then I also got these Arteza.

0:03:34.860,0:03:37.550
Arteza 24 Fabric Colors.

0:03:37.550,0:03:41.313
I think this is just regular fabric paint.

0:03:42.276,0:03:43.260
I don't know.

0:03:43.260,0:03:44.960
It had the best ratings on Amazon.

0:03:44.960,0:03:46.930
I'm gonna have to do a lot of color mixing

0:03:46.930,0:03:49.570
'cause these colors are extremely bright.

0:03:49.570,0:03:52.330
I'm tryna think of what[br]my best plan of action is.

0:03:52.330,0:03:54.270
Okay. I'm wearing pants,

0:03:54.270,0:03:55.670
it may look like I'm not wearing pants.

0:03:55.670,0:03:59.090
I printed out these pictures[br]so I have some reference

0:03:59.090,0:04:00.130
while I'm painting.

0:04:00.130,0:04:04.020
It also got extremely cloudy[br]while I was setting up,

0:04:04.020,0:04:06.450
which makes painting[br]flowers not as exciting.

0:04:06.450,0:04:08.680
I was so happy today[br]'cause it was so sunny.

0:04:08.680,0:04:10.440
I was like, oh, I'm just[br]gonna paint some flowers

0:04:10.440,0:04:13.060
and it's a sunny day, have the[br]windows open and everything.

0:04:13.060,0:04:16.100
We're gonna be painting[br]flowers in a dimly lit room.

0:04:16.100,0:04:17.740
So I'm gonna just get started.

0:04:17.740,0:04:20.370
Honestly. I've never[br]painted on fabric before

0:04:20.370,0:04:22.160
so I don't know how this is gonna go.

0:04:22.160,0:04:24.230
I'm gonna try to keep it within this,

0:04:24.230,0:04:26.410
like, the color palette[br]of the original dress

0:04:26.410,0:04:29.300
and we'll see how it turns out.

0:04:29.300,0:04:30.700
I'm just kind of winging it.

0:04:34.850,0:04:37.583
Okay, well here goes, here goes nothing.

0:04:38.747,0:04:41.664
(soft piano music)

0:05:11.040,0:05:13.900
From what I can tell from[br]the two types of paint,

0:05:13.900,0:05:15.940
they pretty much work exactly the same.

0:05:15.940,0:05:19.530
I don't really feel any[br]difference between the 3D one

0:05:19.530,0:05:20.790
and the regular paint.

0:05:20.790,0:05:23.210
It is taking me a lot[br]longer than I expected

0:05:23.210,0:05:26.120
because actually the fabric[br]is kind of soaking up a lot

0:05:26.120,0:05:28.450
of paint, which means[br]that I have to, like,

0:05:28.450,0:05:31.770
really lay it on thick and layer it a lot.

0:05:31.770,0:05:34.590
So, that was something[br]I was not expecting.

0:05:34.590,0:05:37.512
I was kind of, since I'm[br]used to drawing on paper.

0:05:37.512,0:05:39.870
I was just kind of expecting[br]it to be like that.

0:05:39.870,0:05:43.560
Yeah. It's gonna take quite a lot longer

0:05:43.560,0:05:46.870
than what I initially thought.

0:05:46.870,0:05:48.800
Probably gonna go ahead[br]and time-lapse it now

0:05:48.800,0:05:50.430
and see how much I can get done.

0:05:50.430,0:05:51.930
And then I'll try checking in

0:05:51.930,0:05:54.730
once I have a little bit more[br]ready for you guys to see.

0:05:55.939,0:05:58.856
(soft piano music)

0:07:44.710,0:07:45.543
Okay guys.

0:07:45.543,0:07:48.870
I have finally finished[br]the full flower piece.

0:07:48.870,0:07:50.520
I don't know how many I've done

0:07:50.520,0:07:53.840
but it looks like there's[br]like maybe over 500 here.

0:07:53.840,0:07:56.410
It took me a lot longer than I expected.

0:07:56.410,0:07:59.330
I did kind of, like, three[br]or four full work days.

0:07:59.330,0:08:02.568
Some of them were four hours,[br]five hours, three hours.

0:08:02.568,0:08:04.460
So I wanna say in total

0:08:04.460,0:08:08.760
this was maybe, like, 20 hours of work.

0:08:08.760,0:08:11.183
So, it took a while,[br]but we finally finished.

0:08:11.183,0:08:13.210
Let me see if I can[br]hold it up for you guys.

0:08:13.210,0:08:16.223
I'll put also insert shots,[br]but look at all of this.

0:08:17.470,0:08:18.350
I'm so excited.

0:08:18.350,0:08:20.780
Hopefully Wendy can work with this

0:08:20.780,0:08:22.760
and make this look like something good.

0:08:22.760,0:08:25.480
I'm really excited to see[br]how she transformed this.

0:08:25.480,0:08:27.728
I'm actually gonna be[br]handing it off to her today.

0:08:27.728,0:08:30.050
So, we're gonna do a little pass off

0:08:30.050,0:08:32.670
and then the next time I'll[br]see it, it'll be a shirt.

0:08:32.670,0:08:34.893
So that's gonna be very exciting.

0:08:36.357,0:08:39.190
(soft jazz music)

0:08:53.742,0:08:56.804
- Guys, Amanda did such a beautiful job.

0:08:56.804,0:09:00.221
I don't even really want to cut it apart.

0:09:02.544,0:09:03.950
Look how beautiful.

0:09:03.950,0:09:07.260
These tiny ones are murderously difficult.

0:09:07.260,0:09:08.440
- Okay guys, I'm so excited

0:09:08.440,0:09:12.010
because today is finally[br]the day that I get to see

0:09:12.010,0:09:16.550
the finished piece that Wendy[br]made with my flower paintings,

0:09:16.550,0:09:19.633
the hundreds of flowers that[br]I painstakingly painted.

0:09:21.492,0:09:23.730
I have no idea what[br]this is gonna look like.

0:09:23.730,0:09:27.190
She didn't keep me updated[br]while she was making it at all.

0:09:27.190,0:09:30.060
She did say that she wasn't[br]able to make a full dress.

0:09:30.060,0:09:33.640
She made a top instead, which[br]is totally fine with me.

0:09:33.640,0:09:34.550
I have it right here.

0:09:34.550,0:09:36.650
I kept it in the bag[br]that she gave it to me in

0:09:36.650,0:09:38.840
this whole time so that I[br]wouldn't have a sneak peek

0:09:38.840,0:09:40.190
of what it would look like.

0:09:41.950,0:09:42.810
I'm kinda nervous.

0:09:42.810,0:09:44.660
Okay. Should we just open it I guess?

0:09:46.070,0:09:47.167
Ready?

0:09:47.167,0:09:50.000
(packet ruffling)

0:09:50.990,0:09:52.940
Oh my God.

0:09:52.940,0:09:53.823
Wait.

0:09:55.240,0:09:56.073
Oh my God.

0:09:56.970,0:09:59.543
I'm actually speechless right now.

0:10:01.340,0:10:02.173
Look.

0:10:03.300,0:10:06.570
Wait, this is so cool.

0:10:06.570,0:10:08.650
How did she do this?

0:10:08.650,0:10:09.483
Oh my God.

0:10:09.483,0:10:11.390
This is so beautiful.

0:10:11.390,0:10:14.190
Wow. I actually don't know what to say.

0:10:14.190,0:10:15.870
Like, I'm genuinely shocked.

0:10:15.870,0:10:17.500
This looks so cool.

0:10:17.500,0:10:19.540
Like, I don't know if[br]you can see the details

0:10:19.540,0:10:20.783
but let me see.

0:10:22.000,0:10:24.470
They're all, like, individually sewed on,

0:10:24.470,0:10:28.513
all of the flowers, like,[br]cut and stitched out.

0:10:29.360,0:10:31.570
Whoa!

0:10:31.570,0:10:33.630
This looks so cool.

0:10:33.630,0:10:35.540
I'm gonna try it on in[br]a sec, but I feel like

0:10:35.540,0:10:37.960
it definitely looks like[br]the Taylor Swift dress

0:10:37.960,0:10:40.540
but maybe in, like, a more everyday look

0:10:40.540,0:10:42.530
'cause it's in a top of course.

0:10:42.530,0:10:43.773
Oh my gosh, Wait.

0:10:45.010,0:10:46.670
Wendy!

0:10:46.670,0:10:48.243
You did such a good job.

0:10:49.140,0:10:50.220
I was so concerned.

0:10:50.220,0:10:51.580
I was like, "I don't[br]know if she'll be able to

0:10:51.580,0:10:53.710
salvage these flowers 'cause some of them

0:10:53.710,0:10:55.880
definitely looked a little bit botch."

0:10:55.880,0:10:57.247
and at certain points I was like,

0:10:57.247,0:10:59.250
"I don't know if I'm doing[br]them the right size."

0:10:59.250,0:11:03.410
And I know, like, what she had[br]imagined for this, but like,

0:11:03.410,0:11:05.600
this is actually incredible.

0:11:05.600,0:11:06.433
Okay. Wait, BRB.

0:11:06.433,0:11:08.080
I'm gonna change into the top

0:11:08.080,0:11:10.423
and show you guys how it looks like on.

0:11:15.660,0:11:17.930
Can we just...

0:11:17.930,0:11:20.318
Can I hear a little[br]commotion for the dress?

0:11:20.318,0:11:22.400
(audience applauding)

0:11:22.400,0:11:23.233
Wendy.

0:11:25.678,0:11:28.737
(Amanda clapping)

(upbeat music)

0:11:41.257,0:11:42.370
This was a team effort.

0:11:42.370,0:11:44.470
So props Wendy, through the screen.

0:11:44.470,0:11:47.020
I actually think I prefer it as a top

0:11:47.020,0:11:49.390
because it's like more wearable that way.

0:11:49.390,0:11:52.120
I'm just wearing it with[br]some black jeans right now

0:11:52.120,0:11:55.023
but this looks so good.

0:11:55.991,0:11:58.990
I mean, I guess I can[br]wrap this video up now.

0:11:58.990,0:12:01.633
I keep looking at the shirt[br]because it's so pretty.

0:12:02.940,0:12:05.190
Definitely a success.

0:12:05.190,0:12:07.600
This was such a fun collaboration to do

0:12:07.600,0:12:09.400
between the painting and then, like,

0:12:09.400,0:12:10.900
dropping off everything.

0:12:10.900,0:12:12.720
It really felt like a big group project

0:12:12.720,0:12:14.770
and shout out, of course, to Wendy

0:12:14.770,0:12:18.460
for making this incredible[br]piece out of my painting.

0:12:18.460,0:12:20.740
I really did not know[br]how it would turn out

0:12:20.740,0:12:22.880
or if she would be able to[br]use the flowers that I made

0:12:22.880,0:12:25.070
but she definitely pulled it off.

0:12:25.070,0:12:27.070
If you do wanna check[br]out the whole process

0:12:27.070,0:12:28.870
of her making this top,

0:12:28.870,0:12:31.490
I think she also made one for herself,

0:12:31.490,0:12:34.030
but like a maternity style[br]'cause she's currently pregnant.

0:12:34.030,0:12:36.630
So, if you wanna check out[br]the whole process of her

0:12:36.630,0:12:39.940
turning that huge flower[br]painting into this top,

0:12:39.940,0:12:41.700
definitely be sure to check out her video,

0:12:41.700,0:12:42.590
give her some love.

0:12:42.590,0:12:46.070
She is so, so sweet and[br]so talented clearly.

0:12:46.070,0:12:48.400
And I love her and her content so much.

0:12:48.400,0:12:51.710
So, I'll leave the link[br]to her channel down below.

0:12:51.710,0:12:52.940
Thank you again, Wendy.

0:12:52.940,0:12:54.520
And I think that's pretty much it.

0:12:54.520,0:12:58.060
So I will talk to you[br]guys in the next video.

0:12:58.060,0:12:59.090
Keep doodling.

0:12:59.090,0:13:00.050
Bye.

0:13:00.050,0:13:01.210
where do I go now?

0:13:01.210,0:13:02.853
Like this is just so cute.
