1
00:00:00,070 --> 00:00:02,140
- Swifties I come in peace, okay.

2
00:00:02,140 --> 00:00:03,530
Stream folklore.

3
00:00:03,530 --> 00:00:04,850
I'm just kind of winging it.

4
00:00:04,850 --> 00:00:06,150
Here goes nothing.

5
00:00:06,150 --> 00:00:09,373
- These tiny ones are
murderously difficult.

6
00:00:11,401 --> 00:00:12,760
Look how beautiful.

7
00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:13,593
- Oh my God.

8
00:00:14,540 --> 00:00:17,541
I'm actually speechless right now.

9
00:00:17,541 --> 00:00:20,624
(upbeat flute music)

10
00:00:22,247 --> 00:00:24,980
- Hey besties, this is your
reminder to go drink water,

11
00:00:24,980 --> 00:00:26,200
if you haven't already today.

12
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:28,510
Welcome back to yet another episode of

13
00:00:28,510 --> 00:00:31,660
Amanda doing random things on her channel.

14
00:00:31,660 --> 00:00:34,945
I'm tired of being confined to
a small sized piece of paper

15
00:00:34,945 --> 00:00:37,820
and I'm breaking free of those shackles.

16
00:00:37,820 --> 00:00:40,070
I've been wanting to do bigger
art projects on my channels

17
00:00:40,070 --> 00:00:42,570
besides like the regular
bullet journal stuff.

18
00:00:42,570 --> 00:00:45,330
But I didn't really know
exactly what I wanted to do

19
00:00:45,330 --> 00:00:48,910
until I had a nice, little video call

20
00:00:48,910 --> 00:00:51,670
with my fellow Toronto
YouTuber @withwendy.

21
00:00:51,670 --> 00:00:52,890
If you guys don't know who she is,

22
00:00:52,890 --> 00:00:55,450
she is an awesome YouTuber who sews stuff.

23
00:00:55,450 --> 00:00:57,080
She DIYs stuff.

24
00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,840
And she is just a lovely,
lovely human being.

25
00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:01,327
We put it on the back burner for a while

26
00:01:01,327 --> 00:01:04,860
until the Grammys that happened recently.

27
00:01:04,860 --> 00:01:06,957
And she immediately
messaged me and was like,

28
00:01:06,957 --> 00:01:07,820
"how about this?"

29
00:01:07,820 --> 00:01:10,457
She sends me a picture of Taylor Swift's

30
00:01:10,457 --> 00:01:13,080
lovely outfit from the Grammys.

31
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:15,150
And it's just with all these flowers

32
00:01:15,150 --> 00:01:18,330
all over her dress that
are, like, hand embroidered

33
00:01:18,330 --> 00:01:19,920
and she just looks great.

34
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:23,070
She looks chef's kiss, very cottage core.

35
00:01:23,070 --> 00:01:26,850
You know, today I will be
hand-painting a ton of flowers

36
00:01:26,850 --> 00:01:30,610
so that me and Wendy can
recreate Taylor Swift's look.

37
00:01:30,610 --> 00:01:32,820
I'm in charge of the flowers

38
00:01:32,820 --> 00:01:34,460
and then I'm gonna pass it off to her.

39
00:01:34,460 --> 00:01:38,460
It's gonna be kind of
like an art DIY relay.

40
00:01:38,460 --> 00:01:41,230
It'll be cool for me to see how the actual

41
00:01:41,230 --> 00:01:42,340
final project turns out

42
00:01:42,340 --> 00:01:45,450
because I won't be there to
see how she puts it together.

43
00:01:45,450 --> 00:01:47,820
I'll only see, you know what I paint

44
00:01:47,820 --> 00:01:51,690
and then it'll be magically
transformed into this garment.

45
00:01:51,690 --> 00:01:54,693
This is the fabric that I have over here.

46
00:01:55,770 --> 00:01:57,990
Wendy and I did a little handoff,

47
00:01:57,990 --> 00:01:59,340
it felt like we were passing

48
00:01:59,340 --> 00:02:01,360
off illegal substances or something.

49
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:02,240
- [Amanda] I got the goods.

50
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:04,120
- Yay!
- [Amanda] Thank you.

51
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:06,506
I will see you at the next drop off.

52
00:02:06,506 --> 00:02:08,740
- Social distance drop off

53
00:02:08,740 --> 00:02:10,080
Mission accomplished.

54
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,170
All right, bye.
- Bye.

55
00:02:12,170 --> 00:02:13,830
- There's a lot of fabric.

56
00:02:13,830 --> 00:02:15,810
Now looking at it,

57
00:02:15,810 --> 00:02:20,400
I think I did underestimate
how much I would have to paint.

58
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:21,467
I was like to Wendy.

59
00:02:21,467 --> 00:02:23,750
"Yeah. Yeah. I'll paint all those flowers.

60
00:02:23,750 --> 00:02:24,583
No worries.

61
00:02:24,583 --> 00:02:26,520
I can finish that."

62
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:27,880
But I'm gonna have to buckle down

63
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:30,520
and do it, for the Swifties.

64
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:32,030
For the Swifties.

65
00:02:32,030 --> 00:02:34,499
I feel like I'm unlocking
a whole side of YouTube

66
00:02:34,499 --> 00:02:37,710
that I don't know if I
wanna be messing with,

67
00:02:37,710 --> 00:02:39,700
the Swifties are too powerful.

68
00:02:39,700 --> 00:02:41,820
Swifties I come in peace, okay.

69
00:02:41,820 --> 00:02:43,340
Stream Folklore.

70
00:02:43,340 --> 00:02:44,870
All right, so let's just get started.

71
00:02:44,870 --> 00:02:46,010
I'm gonna lay out this fabric

72
00:02:46,010 --> 00:02:48,780
so we can have one nice
big space to work on.

73
00:02:48,780 --> 00:02:50,819
I'll probably just be
working on it on the floor.

74
00:02:50,819 --> 00:02:52,853
So RIP my back.

75
00:02:55,780 --> 00:02:57,570
- [Amanda] Oh my God.

76
00:02:57,570 --> 00:02:59,353
That is a lot of fabric.

77
00:03:01,850 --> 00:03:03,470
I've never painted on fabric before

78
00:03:03,470 --> 00:03:06,120
so I didn't know exactly what to get.

79
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,210
I got two different types of fabric paint.

80
00:03:09,210 --> 00:03:12,530
This one is Castle Arts.

81
00:03:12,530 --> 00:03:15,709
Castle Arts 3D Fabric Paint.

82
00:03:15,709 --> 00:03:17,730
I'm assuming since it says 3D,

83
00:03:17,730 --> 00:03:20,860
it's gonna be a little bit
like puffy paint almost.

84
00:03:20,860 --> 00:03:23,300
So maybe that'll give
us some nice texture.

85
00:03:23,300 --> 00:03:24,360
I thought it would be nice,

86
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,165
especially since a lot
of the flowers kinda

87
00:03:26,165 --> 00:03:31,165
have that 3D look on her dress.

88
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:34,860
And then I also got these Arteza.

89
00:03:34,860 --> 00:03:37,550
Arteza 24 Fabric Colors.

90
00:03:37,550 --> 00:03:41,313
I think this is just regular fabric paint.

91
00:03:42,276 --> 00:03:43,260
I don't know.

92
00:03:43,260 --> 00:03:44,960
It had the best ratings on Amazon.

93
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:46,930
I'm gonna have to do a lot of color mixing

94
00:03:46,930 --> 00:03:49,570
'cause these colors are extremely bright.

95
00:03:49,570 --> 00:03:52,330
I'm tryna think of what
my best plan of action is.

96
00:03:52,330 --> 00:03:54,270
Okay. I'm wearing pants,

97
00:03:54,270 --> 00:03:55,670
it may look like I'm not wearing pants.

98
00:03:55,670 --> 00:03:59,090
I printed out these pictures
so I have some reference

99
00:03:59,090 --> 00:04:00,130
while I'm painting.

100
00:04:00,130 --> 00:04:04,020
It also got extremely cloudy
while I was setting up,

101
00:04:04,020 --> 00:04:06,450
which makes painting
flowers not as exciting.

102
00:04:06,450 --> 00:04:08,680
I was so happy today
'cause it was so sunny.

103
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:10,440
I was like, oh, I'm just
gonna paint some flowers

104
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:13,060
and it's a sunny day, have the
windows open and everything.

105
00:04:13,060 --> 00:04:16,100
We're gonna be painting
flowers in a dimly lit room.

106
00:04:16,100 --> 00:04:17,740
So I'm gonna just get started.

107
00:04:17,740 --> 00:04:20,370
Honestly. I've never
painted on fabric before

108
00:04:20,370 --> 00:04:22,160
so I don't know how this is gonna go.

109
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,230
I'm gonna try to keep it within this,

110
00:04:24,230 --> 00:04:26,410
like, the color palette
of the original dress

111
00:04:26,410 --> 00:04:29,300
and we'll see how it turns out.

112
00:04:29,300 --> 00:04:30,700
I'm just kind of winging it.

113
00:04:34,850 --> 00:04:37,583
Okay, well here goes, here goes nothing.

114
00:04:38,747 --> 00:04:41,664
(soft piano music)

115
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,900
From what I can tell from
the two types of paint,

116
00:05:13,900 --> 00:05:15,940
they pretty much work exactly the same.

117
00:05:15,940 --> 00:05:19,530
I don't really feel any
difference between the 3D one

118
00:05:19,530 --> 00:05:20,790
and the regular paint.

119
00:05:20,790 --> 00:05:23,210
It is taking me a lot
longer than I expected

120
00:05:23,210 --> 00:05:26,120
because actually the fabric
is kind of soaking up a lot

121
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,450
of paint, which means
that I have to, like,

122
00:05:28,450 --> 00:05:31,770
really lay it on thick and layer it a lot.

123
00:05:31,770 --> 00:05:34,590
So, that was something
I was not expecting.

124
00:05:34,590 --> 00:05:37,512
I was kind of, since I'm
used to drawing on paper.

125
00:05:37,512 --> 00:05:39,870
I was just kind of expecting
it to be like that.

126
00:05:39,870 --> 00:05:43,560
Yeah. It's gonna take quite a lot longer

127
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,870
than what I initially thought.

128
00:05:46,870 --> 00:05:48,800
Probably gonna go ahead
and time-lapse it now

129
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:50,430
and see how much I can get done.

130
00:05:50,430 --> 00:05:51,930
And then I'll try checking in

131
00:05:51,930 --> 00:05:54,730
once I have a little bit more
ready for you guys to see.

132
00:05:55,939 --> 00:05:58,856
(soft piano music)

133
00:07:44,710 --> 00:07:45,543
Okay guys.

134
00:07:45,543 --> 00:07:48,870
I have finally finished
the full flower piece.

135
00:07:48,870 --> 00:07:50,520
I don't know how many I've done

136
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:53,840
but it looks like there's
like maybe over 500 here.

137
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,410
It took me a lot longer than I expected.

138
00:07:56,410 --> 00:07:59,330
I did kind of, like, three
or four full work days.

139
00:07:59,330 --> 00:08:02,568
Some of them were four hours,
five hours, three hours.

140
00:08:02,568 --> 00:08:04,460
So I wanna say in total

141
00:08:04,460 --> 00:08:08,760
this was maybe, like, 20 hours of work.

142
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,183
So, it took a while,
but we finally finished.

143
00:08:11,183 --> 00:08:13,210
Let me see if I can
hold it up for you guys.

144
00:08:13,210 --> 00:08:16,223
I'll put also insert shots,
but look at all of this.

145
00:08:17,470 --> 00:08:18,350
I'm so excited.

146
00:08:18,350 --> 00:08:20,780
Hopefully Wendy can work with this

147
00:08:20,780 --> 00:08:22,760
and make this look like something good.

148
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,480
I'm really excited to see
how she transformed this.

149
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:27,728
I'm actually gonna be
handing it off to her today.

150
00:08:27,728 --> 00:08:30,050
So, we're gonna do a little pass off

151
00:08:30,050 --> 00:08:32,670
and then the next time I'll
see it, it'll be a shirt.

152
00:08:32,670 --> 00:08:34,893
So that's gonna be very exciting.

153
00:08:36,357 --> 00:08:39,190
(soft jazz music)

154
00:08:53,742 --> 00:08:56,804
- Guys, Amanda did such a beautiful job.

155
00:08:56,804 --> 00:09:00,221
I don't even really want to cut it apart.

156
00:09:02,544 --> 00:09:03,950
Look how beautiful.

157
00:09:03,950 --> 00:09:07,260
These tiny ones are murderously difficult.

158
00:09:07,260 --> 00:09:08,440
- Okay guys, I'm so excited

159
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:12,010
because today is finally
the day that I get to see

160
00:09:12,010 --> 00:09:16,550
the finished piece that Wendy
made with my flower paintings,

161
00:09:16,550 --> 00:09:19,633
the hundreds of flowers that
I painstakingly painted.

162
00:09:21,492 --> 00:09:23,730
I have no idea what
this is gonna look like.

163
00:09:23,730 --> 00:09:27,190
She didn't keep me updated
while she was making it at all.

164
00:09:27,190 --> 00:09:30,060
She did say that she wasn't
able to make a full dress.

165
00:09:30,060 --> 00:09:33,640
She made a top instead, which
is totally fine with me.

166
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:34,550
I have it right here.

167
00:09:34,550 --> 00:09:36,650
I kept it in the bag
that she gave it to me in

168
00:09:36,650 --> 00:09:38,840
this whole time so that I
wouldn't have a sneak peek

169
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:40,190
of what it would look like.

170
00:09:41,950 --> 00:09:42,810
I'm kinda nervous.

171
00:09:42,810 --> 00:09:44,660
Okay. Should we just open it I guess?

172
00:09:46,070 --> 00:09:47,167
Ready?

173
00:09:47,167 --> 00:09:50,000
(packet ruffling)

174
00:09:50,990 --> 00:09:52,940
Oh my God.

175
00:09:52,940 --> 00:09:53,823
Wait.

176
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:56,073
Oh my God.

177
00:09:56,970 --> 00:09:59,543
I'm actually speechless right now.

178
00:10:01,340 --> 00:10:02,173
Look.

179
00:10:03,300 --> 00:10:06,570
Wait, this is so cool.

180
00:10:06,570 --> 00:10:08,650
How did she do this?

181
00:10:08,650 --> 00:10:09,483
Oh my God.

182
00:10:09,483 --> 00:10:11,390
This is so beautiful.

183
00:10:11,390 --> 00:10:14,190
Wow. I actually don't know what to say.

184
00:10:14,190 --> 00:10:15,870
Like, I'm genuinely shocked.

185
00:10:15,870 --> 00:10:17,500
This looks so cool.

186
00:10:17,500 --> 00:10:19,540
Like, I don't know if
you can see the details

187
00:10:19,540 --> 00:10:20,783
but let me see.

188
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,470
They're all, like, individually sewed on,

189
00:10:24,470 --> 00:10:28,513
all of the flowers, like,
cut and stitched out.

190
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:31,570
Whoa!

191
00:10:31,570 --> 00:10:33,630
This looks so cool.

192
00:10:33,630 --> 00:10:35,540
I'm gonna try it on in
a sec, but I feel like

193
00:10:35,540 --> 00:10:37,960
it definitely looks like
the Taylor Swift dress

194
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,540
but maybe in, like, a more everyday look

195
00:10:40,540 --> 00:10:42,530
'cause it's in a top of course.

196
00:10:42,530 --> 00:10:43,773
Oh my gosh, Wait.

197
00:10:45,010 --> 00:10:46,670
Wendy!

198
00:10:46,670 --> 00:10:48,243
You did such a good job.

199
00:10:49,140 --> 00:10:50,220
I was so concerned.

200
00:10:50,220 --> 00:10:51,580
I was like, "I don't
know if she'll be able to

201
00:10:51,580 --> 00:10:53,710
salvage these flowers 'cause some of them

202
00:10:53,710 --> 00:10:55,880
definitely looked a little bit botch."

203
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:57,247
and at certain points I was like,

204
00:10:57,247 --> 00:10:59,250
"I don't know if I'm doing
them the right size."

205
00:10:59,250 --> 00:11:03,410
And I know, like, what she had
imagined for this, but like,

206
00:11:03,410 --> 00:11:05,600
this is actually incredible.

207
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:06,433
Okay. Wait, BRB.

208
00:11:06,433 --> 00:11:08,080
I'm gonna change into the top

209
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,423
and show you guys how it looks like on.

210
00:11:15,660 --> 00:11:17,930
Can we just...

211
00:11:17,930 --> 00:11:20,318
Can I hear a little
commotion for the dress?

212
00:11:20,318 --> 00:11:22,400
(audience applauding)

213
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:23,233
Wendy.

214
00:11:25,678 --> 00:11:28,737
(Amanda clapping)

215
00:11:28,737 --> 00:11:31,320
(upbeat music)

216
00:11:41,257 --> 00:11:42,370
This was a team effort.

217
00:11:42,370 --> 00:11:44,470
So props Wendy, through the screen.

218
00:11:44,470 --> 00:11:47,020
I actually think I prefer it as a top

219
00:11:47,020 --> 00:11:49,390
because it's like more wearable that way.

220
00:11:49,390 --> 00:11:52,120
I'm just wearing it with
some black jeans right now

221
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:55,023
but this looks so good.

222
00:11:55,991 --> 00:11:58,990
I mean, I guess I can
wrap this video up now.

223
00:11:58,990 --> 00:12:01,633
I keep looking at the shirt
because it's so pretty.

224
00:12:02,940 --> 00:12:05,190
Definitely a success.

225
00:12:05,190 --> 00:12:07,600
This was such a fun collaboration to do

226
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:09,400
between the painting and then, like,

227
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:10,900
dropping off everything.

228
00:12:10,900 --> 00:12:12,720
It really felt like a big group project

229
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:14,770
and shout out, of course, to Wendy

230
00:12:14,770 --> 00:12:18,460
for making this incredible
piece out of my painting.

231
00:12:18,460 --> 00:12:20,740
I really did not know
how it would turn out

232
00:12:20,740 --> 00:12:22,880
or if she would be able to
use the flowers that I made

233
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:25,070
but she definitely pulled it off.

234
00:12:25,070 --> 00:12:27,070
If you do wanna check
out the whole process

235
00:12:27,070 --> 00:12:28,870
of her making this top,

236
00:12:28,870 --> 00:12:31,490
I think she also made one for herself,

237
00:12:31,490 --> 00:12:34,030
but like a maternity style
'cause she's currently pregnant.

238
00:12:34,030 --> 00:12:36,630
So, if you wanna check out
the whole process of her

239
00:12:36,630 --> 00:12:39,940
turning that huge flower
painting into this top,

240
00:12:39,940 --> 00:12:41,700
definitely be sure to check out her video,

241
00:12:41,700 --> 00:12:42,590
give her some love.

242
00:12:42,590 --> 00:12:46,070
She is so, so sweet and
so talented clearly.

243
00:12:46,070 --> 00:12:48,400
And I love her and her content so much.

244
00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:51,710
So, I'll leave the link
to her channel down below.

245
00:12:51,710 --> 00:12:52,940
Thank you again, Wendy.

246
00:12:52,940 --> 00:12:54,520
And I think that's pretty much it.

247
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:58,060
So I will talk to you
guys in the next video.

248
00:12:58,060 --> 00:12:59,090
Keep doodling.

249
00:12:59,090 --> 00:13:00,050
Bye.

250
00:13:00,050 --> 00:13:01,210
where do I go now?

251
00:13:01,210 --> 00:13:02,853
Like this is just so cute.

252
00:13:04,243 --> 00:13:07,076
(soft jazz music)
