- HAPPY HALLOWEEN MY FRIENDS!!!!! So this vide is a bit later than expected, but basically... this week was CURSED, hahaha. Despite all the setbacks and challenges, I finally got it done and I'm so excited to share it with you!
It's become sortof an annual tradition that I make an outfit based on one of the characters from Nightmare Before Christmas, so THIS YEAR, I chose to recreate one of my favorite illustrations and make an 1890's Jack! This is my favorite era of fashion, PLUS my favorite time of year, WIN WIN BAY-BEE.
OKay that's it I hope you enjoy and have a happy & safe Halloween!!!! (or November depending on when you're reading this)

HELLO MY LOVES!! Captions will be up first thing tomorrow, I hope you have a safe & happy halloween!!!!!!
just finished doing my makeup and hair for halloween!
I LOVE UR VIDEOS
Happy you managed to post today ❤️
Not to offend, but you sound like you were losing your sanity through the video. Are you ok?
Happy Halloween! 🎃 👻 ☠️ 🐉 👹🍭🍁
The fact that Binx made more appearances in this month's videos than they have in the entirety of videos I've watched in the past two years confirms it: Binx is also a Hobgoblin of Spooktober
A true child of Halloween
She's adorbs!!!! Also sassy like the rest of the Maksy's
Came here to say this! I'm loving all the Binx!
I love all of the Binx content! She’s so stinking cute!
Same! Super enjoy Binx becoming a regular
Please tell Binx we are so proud of her for new found camera confidence
I must say, Rachel's version of the "person slowly goes mad after a series of never-ending setbacks" storyline is much more classy and civilized than Stephen King's. Jack Torrance could NEVER.
"NONE YA BUSINESS!"
Rachel, you must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you.
i think its "admire and adore" . . . maybe lol
I was expecting her to say “your Momma” 😂
This needs to be a tiktok
This part legitimately made me cackle out loud lol, I relate so hard
@@seame3795 Legitimately, I would say "yer mutheh" in a creepy raspy voice.
The way she said NUNYA BUSINESS makes me laugh so hard every time it sounds like an old witch of the woods from a Disney movie and I love it
"none ya business!" Had me rolling. I haven't laughed that hard in a long time.
Ngl, I thought she was going to shout 'Your Mom!' at those teens😂
Same🤣🤣 I pictured the Hocus Pocus bullies who were hanging out in the graveyard
I thought she'd say "What mask?" 😄
@@josiegraffjewelrydesign6907 I would have said your mom😂
As the mother whose been through the teenage years twice I was actually hoping you’d pull out a switch and chase them off. I’m still having random fits if laughter, the little 💩s.
Progression of Rachel’s style is just sleeves getting gradually larger and poofier
lol that's also the progression of history... we love a historical queen
her final dress will only be SLEEVES and theyll be so poofy that they double as the skirt.
You say it like it's a bad thing. 😜 There's a lot of puff on my sleeves too. Puff is love, puff is live.
@@eminakostic3406 Sounds to me like something Rachel would make!
"NUNYA BUSINESS!" honestly if a Skellington yells that at me, I'm runnin' - clearly I am about to be hexed
I cackled lol
@@SlackerLife0 me too!! I'm still laughing as I post
Hahaha
OMG died at that, so cute, mannn
I may be dating myself but I would have whipped out a quick “YOUR MOM” in a demon voice 😆
The ghosts in the graveyard: “weird girl is back! Myrtle, come look!”
I adore how comfortable she is with telling her viewers all the blood, sweat, and tears going into her projects; Instead of skipping through the struggle cause it is about the journey then the destination. You deserve so much love dear and I hope your Halloween went well.
agreed!! honestly one of the reasons i love rachel is bc she doesnt shy away from how she is feeling during the process! it makes me feel less alone in my worry as a creator, and in turn more bold with my projects
I love her!
"What do ya look like... underneath the mask?"
"NUN YA BUISNESS"
Lmao I screamedd
Now I'm going to constantly imagine Gandalf shouting "THIS TOO SHALL PASS!" whenever I'm on the floor devoid of life
Me too!! 😂🤣😂
Hearing Gandalf shout it makes that expression so much better! 😆
Honestly surprisingly reassuring
Hahaha I’m gunna make this reference to people when they are struggling and no one will understand why I’m yelling such a comforting phrase with such authority.
The fact that you just kept going with this project even without power to your house is amazing. You’re so committed to this work and I’m so proud of you!
What's this, WHAT'S THIS?! Your costume turned out SOOO GOOD! (I especially loved the custom paint color ;) ) Happy Halloween!
Ah! What a pleasure to see you here😌✨ love seeing creators that I enjoy also enjoying each other🌤
Chefs kiss of a comment! Lol
Love your videos, both abitfrank and Rachel!!!
Me going “I bet you could have pad stitched the collar” when I know damn well I have never pad stitched a collar a DAY in my LIFE. Too much Bernadette Banner for the week. 😂
"I am not a special effects artist" literally won the NYX face awards for being a special effects artist
Oh? Elaboration?
oh? do share
NYX cosmetics hosts an FX makeup competition every year called the NYX Face Awards. Rachel participated and won in 2018.
I don't know what's confusing the people in the replies. What's there to elaborate and share? They literally told you she won the NYX face awards one year. Get googling.
But seriously, she has this tendency to minimize her work. It's becoming grating. She can literally sew and make almost anything and she still can't say it's amazing. I paused at the bit where she said she's a dollar store version of people on Face Off. Women do this kind of shxt all the time and I can't stand it anymore.
@@LaynieFingers thanks for replying! That's super cool I didnt know that was a thing
I adore the fact that while everyone else is using generators for phones, lights and maybe small appliances, you used yours to run a sewing machine. That's dedication. The puffed sleeves are fabulous! Great job! Happy Halloween!
1. This is definitely one of my most favorite looks Rachel has done thus far.
2. She may have cringed at her response to the heckling teens, but I say WTF to their question. It wasn't clever at all even in a rude way.
The last time I got heckled by teens about my Halloween mask, I said "Your face." They were butthurt, but the older gentleman nearby laughed himself onto a bench.
Rachel: I’m lucky someone sent me this frikin amazing fabric.
My mum, from across the room: Is it earth tones?
"There's just something about balloon sleeves."
Rachel is Anne Shirley, confirmed. 😉
❤️✨❤️
Must be something that comes packaged with long red hair 😝 Even if it's artificially achieved, the sleeve fixation is clearly part of the meta-narrative...
YEA
If you’re ever stuck for an iron, hair straighteners are lover powered and work well for small areas near edges! It’s saved me many times at work or when traveling!
Is it sad that I used to use mine on the regular before I got a proper iron? XD
Brilliant idea!
I honestly love the typo in this 😂
@@shaenanigans 😘😘😘 haha! I saw it and left it in because it made me giggle too!
Kudos to you for taking on a 26 piece pattern. Girl, you crazy. The costume turned out spectacular. We all appreciate you sharing your talents with us.🧡🖤🎃💀👻🧡
The authenticity of your pets just Always. Being. In. The. Way. makes your videos so cozy and relatable! It turned out wonderful like always!
Considering how much I've been crafting this year and my cat has bugged me to get into my crafting room I totally am with you
"Stress cry" lol. I get that. Once I was at a workshop and my project broke near the end of the day and I told the instructor, "I just need to go have a meltdown real quick, I'll be back in a few minutes". Your project ultimately turned out much better than mine did!
I appreciate how you include the unpleasant moments of being a creator, even if that means an embarrassing interaction with teenagers.
As a sfx professional I would like to say the (depending on how much time the director wants to give us) we tend to use whatever we can get our hands on lol so keep on with what you’re doing ♥️
What would u do differently? Not saying rachel isn't awesome (cuz she is) but like out of curiosity
@@ahhh4117 if the director gave me an open budget and time then I would make a live cast of whoever’s wearing the mask (if I didn’t have one) then sculpt the mask and cast that as well. Then smush the two together the make the negative mold. Thankfully the main two directors I work for usually give me decent time and money. But I have worked for a few that want you to take a 2-3 week process and cut it down to a matter of days and with less then half the budget and supplies. But I like being creative so I don’t mind too too much.
I absolutely love the disheveled Rachel at the end. Your energy is the embodiment of all of us makers and sewists when we pull off a successful project! The Happiest of Halloweens to you!
RACHEL. THIS IS FABULOUS. "Lol nope" - who cares if it's not a couple days before Halloween. We're just happy to see you.
Hot tip for someone who was without an iron and desperately needed one: heating a flat bottomed pot or pan with a bit of water in it and then using it as you would an iron. Works surprisingly well! Of course, only really works if you have a gas range or a gloriously large fireplace haha
If it's a small area, a flat iron also works in my experience.
"What do you look like under the mask?"
"Mask? What mask?!"
You're freakin' adorable, Rachel.
Thank you Jill and Blaine!! That was an amazing gift not just the Rachel but to our whole community 🤍
Distracted comment: I think Binx knew you're having a rough day, that's why she kept wandering near you.. ☺
Hey, you know that when you're feeling overwhelmed its also very okay not to post and that If you feel you have to post something to feed the algorithm, I'd also be happy to watch a one take of your cat running around or something. Maybe a first person view of your cat as it torments your sewing projects? :D
Right? And she’s in the middle of buying a new home as well? I admire this but hate to applaud it at the same time. I can’t imagine any of us going anywhere even if she took months off.
Oh my god yes please
Just an entire compilation video of Binx
When Rachel goes "not everything went as planned but it's fine" we all go GOOOOD ENOUUUGH
1. So proud of you for doing so much with no power! Seriously impressive.
2. Ballon sleeves are life, more balloon sleeves! I loved seeing the crazy amount of fabric that goes into them lol
3. We love the references!
4. I'm just so proud because I've been watching your channel for a loooong time and seeing how much more confident you are with sewing and how good you've gotten???? Like??? Amazing.
5. I teach 8th grade and those teens at the end would've gotten a Look from me.
that brown sweater and suspenders look was giving me "1950s fisherman, who lives in a bar near the pier, and is married to the sea"....-vibes...in the best way possible
Brandy you’re a fine girl.
@@itzel1735 what a good wife you would be
But my life, my love, and my laaaydee!
@@mcwjes is the SEA !!!!
My wife watches your work religiously and i just wanted to stop by and say that it was very cool, and brave, and important, and good that you were open like you were about some of the difficulties you were having during this project, and presented them in a way that underscores the fact that it's okay to process hard things in your own way, and that you don't need other peoples' permission to accomodate yourself as much as you need to get through it, regardless of the circumstances or the difficulty at-hand, and it wasn't something to be ashamed of. The dress/costuming was great, don't get me wrong, but that one quick aside was one of the most quietly powerful sequences i've seen in a create/reveal video, and i think it's going to affect a lot of people in a positive way. Bout to well up over here just thinking about it lol
Your wife is lucky to have you and I sincerely hope she cherishes you as much as you cherish her. 😀
I hope Rachel reads this comment
Well said!
That clip of Schmidt from New Girl absolutely sent me - “Youths!” - I was dying laughing, crying, wheezing, the silent rock back and forth while you hold your elbows and trying to compose myself enough to explain to my husband what was going on only to continue lapsing into fits of cackling hysterics at the hilarity of explaining what you were doing, what the hecklers were saying and the clip of Schmidt. I have only just recovered enough to write this comment.
I love this
SAME
This is our family’s favorite video you have ever done. My wife is very impressed that you matched up the stripes on the bodice. My daughter is impressed with your sense of humor under stress. Know that you’re inspiring a generation as to how to handle disaster. Happy spooky time.
Rachel as she shot the final reveal giving some wonderful Jim Carrey's Grinch vibes and I am _here_ for it!!
I love it. 1890s sleeves are goals. It really is a statement and that statement is "look upon my sleeves, ye mighty, and despair".
I really appreciate seeing your tiny screaming gremlin more! Her incessant prrrmowww is so precious.
I felt extremely called out by "a closet full of costumes and nothing to wear" as I sit in my driveway with the candy bowl in a kigurumi because I couldn't find anything to wear
I'm honestly surprised someone hasn't employed you for special effects on a low-budget/student horror movie yet. You do such fantastic work on short time frames and little money!
I love that Binx has been less camera shy lately. She's such a sweet, beautiful girl. I always enjoy seeing her. 🙂
The fact that you managed to do this with minimal electricity options is ama-zing! I hope that it never happens again for your sake. The whole ensemble is really cute!
Having somewhat followed your whole ordeal on Instagram, it took no more than "Welcome to the *actual* 1800s" to have me in stitches - it definitely can't have been fun to live through, but rest assured your cursed week made for one hell of an entertaining video (also the thunder rumble on the day three title card was *chef's kiss*)
I loved the symphony of orange and green at the beginning.
And whoa nellie, does that 1890s silhouette look GOOOOOOD on you!
Love the Sassy Skellington Rachel!
I would've just turned toward those teenagers very slowly and said "What mask?"
I was Classic Jack Skellington this year, now I wish we'd met and done the *two spider-men pointing at each other* meme lol
Binx really said, “Frodo has had it too good for too long. It’s my time to SHINE.”
“Am I making a lot of references in this video?” It’s okay. You’re stressed Rachel. Those are your emotional support references.
omg, this is great and absolutely correct lol
Rachel: *cries for a half hour while the universe throws obstacles at her*
Rachel: And we have ~fun~ here!
I mean, yes? But also, I just couldn't help thinking that maybe getting this out by Halloween was just not as important as catching a dang break.
I love how, living about an hour north, I can pretty much guess what gets filmed on what day by the weather in the background...
also, now I kinda want to see Rachel use that mask to do a take on Skeletor (mostly 'cause I think she's do a good impression of him...)
I love how much Binx wants to be in the videos the passed few weeks x) She's such a cutie!
Also Rachel laying on the floor with all the pattern pieces regretting all of her life's decision is 100% relatable x)
✨🌠🙌 the moodest - a perfect image of my soul
Rachel really had no power, freezing cold temps and meltdowns and still put out a Halloween treat for us with an incredible costume?! We are so grateful 🎃💖
I admire how energy-saving your mood is, it's so interesting to witness in a midst of high-energy TH-camrs.
I love how your dog just randomly disrupts things by running across your patterns 😂😭
I love how you live in the moment! Even when things are going wrong, you stop to admire the good things! 😀
Did Rachel really just have a "squirrel!" moment with an actual squirrel on her lawn? lol - love you, Rachel!
ok, but does she have a spotify playlist? cause i love every song she plays in literally every video but i can never find them.
I had so much sympathy for you and your struggles with keeping on a schedule through uncontrollable circumstances. You did amazing!
I don't know if it takes less power than your iron, but I've used my hair straightener for emergency crafting /seam pressing when I ran out of flat surfaces to work on.
"So, I took my already terrifying mannequin head."
Me looking over at my own terrifying mannequin head sitting on my kitchen table. Terrifying indeed, but great for using when you're styling a wig.
The long pause overlaid with "i don't remember what reference i was going to make" had me cackling 😂 also this looks great omg!!!!!
Oh my God after that heroic effort to make this whole thing happen, "nunya bisniss" is exactly what those teens deserved. Awesome!!
“Youths!” 😂 your “comeback” was hilarious and probably more witty than I could have come up with if you can believe it 😅
Also, wonderful execution on this project!! You certainly captured Tim Burton’s style with this. I especially admired the bustle (right?). Loved this.
You make willingly falling into the creativity abyss so much more enjoyable
Youths: " I wanna see what you look like under the mask"
What Rachel should have said : " what mask?
That would have been a good comeback but "none ya business" worked well, too! After all, it must be difficult to sling a good come-back while dancing through the cemetery in a puffy-sleeve femininized version of Jack Skeffington while directing your husband as he films you.
A fantastic costume, you'll be the toast of all Halloween parties!
I really want to see like a costume/cosplay through the years where you go over most of the things you’ve made since the beginning of your sewing journey
i appreciate the brief voiceover for cats, my cat was giving her full attention to the process there!
Hahaha *rapt attention*
Rachel - the most endearing and likable TH-camr. 🎃
Spooktacular, Darling!
Fun fact: “these things” are called “Brads.” I will forever remember that because that’s my dads name and my second grade teacher called them “Cricket’s dads.” Shout out to Mrs. Gage!
I don't know if you'll see this but I've been binge watching your videos for about a week now while I work and they are so relaxing to me and help me destress. You also have inspired me to be more confident in myself when I start making videos. So thank you so much!
I love that this was "a mess", it's so real. It was still super fun, and I really enjoyed it. Thanks for putting it out there, and for doing what you do.
Loved every moment of this, but “Noneya business!” literally made me laugh out loud!
Ah, a great way to wrap up my Halloween (it's technically past midnight now, but I say it's Halloween until I go to sleep ;) ) thanks, Rachel! 🎃💀✨
Still Halloween night where I live, and I'm consuming as much Halloween content as possible before its all over
"NONE YA BIZNESS" has me cackling and I love it
“It’s just attaching them to each other” yes Rachel, this is sewing 😂😂💕
That smile during the reveal was everything! You look so happy and giddy Rachel!
I spent my Cape Cod nor'easter blackout contemplating the meaning of life...
Reached no conclusion, but I'm glad someone used the best of their time!
I've been watching since the very beginning and I remember watching the Halloween haul when you got the Jack bowtie! Super proud and impressed with all that you have achieved. This 1890's look is spectacular! Happy Hallowe'en or Teanlay Night as they call it where I'm from in England 🎃🎃🎃🎃
okay the fact that this year I embraced the fact that I'm in love with pumpkins and then I brought a pumpkin mug inspired in yours and here I am my name means "Cecília Pumpkin" in portuguese lol
Lots of love from Brazil, Rach 💗
That's fabulous. Just gonna say it. So cool.
Ahhh nem acredito que tem mais BR que assiste a Rachel!! :)
o mundo é pequeno né? tem brasileiro aqui 😁
Lovely! I've been wanting one of those pumpkin mugs to go with my cauldron one. :)
Fun life hack for ironing without power, if you have a gas stove you can put a pot with a little water on heat for like 2 min then use the bottom of the pot to iron. I'd also recommend putting an old sheet or something down too in case your pot bottom is nasty.. no judgement.
Anytime I get cat called from now on, I will 100% be using Rachel’s ol timey, “NON YA BUSINESS!”. They’ll never see it coming.
“No I’m not selling you black market watches in a dark alleyway” 🤣🤣 hands up all of those who would buy black market watches from Rachel in a dark alleyway 👻👻👻 Rachel, I absolutely loved this content, you just get better and better GIRL!
Me! I would, only from Rachel.
Rachel this is a knockout!! It turned out SO WELL, and I'm simply in awe of your persistence and resilience. Seriously inspiring, and I really hope you feel proud of yourself too
You deserve a big break after this!
Edit: just finished watching and SERIOUSLY DUDE TAKE A BREAK YOU WORKED SO STINKIN HARD AND IT TURNED OUT SO GOOOOOD
I enjoyed watching this so much. The act that you completed all you did with so many days without 'lectricity blows my mind. Skuld of to you!!! Chef's kiss and applause, you rock!!!!!
This is just so incredibly impressive, and the fact that you did most of it without having power is just crazy!
The diy bum padding reminds me of how the costume department at my local amateur theater group did my pregnant stomach for my first play it was made from an old fashioned back warmer and a couch cushion me and the man that played my husband reffered to it as our little baby couch cushion man cant wait to perform with them again
RACHEL! You did another FABULOUS job!! It looks wonderful and you once again are inspiring me to do more sewing and crafting. Thank you for the video, it was worth the wait and I'm going to re-watch it right now. 🍁👻🎃 Happy Halloween! 🎃👻🍁
Hahahaha I work with teens and honestly the “nunya business” is the best response
This is truly ~a look~ it’s so amazing
This channel is so amazing! So cozy and interesting. Makes me wanna start sewing and crafts again.
אחד הפרוייקטים המדהימים!!
כותבת בעברית כדי שתראו שיש לך עוקבת נאמנה כבר יותר משנה גם כאן!)
אבל זה כל כך מעולה
החבובות באי המטמון אחד הסרטים האהובים עלי, ללא ספק
You are such a boss to continue to work on this project during a power outage. Thank you for great spooky content💀🎃🎃
“None of ya business!”
*flicks skeleton hands*
I had to replay that a couple of times HAHA
Same hahahaha
Oh my god Rachels hair at the beginning was literally so cute! All fluffy
I'm so proud of you for actually finishing this project despite everything that came your way! It turned out absolutely fabulous 😍
Haaaaaaa you tackled some 1890s sleeves and in a gorgeous striped heavy fabric !! The skirt also was great, am sewing a 1900s petticoat atm and it feels very similar ^^
