That open end of the metal tool is to cut the fabric right where you want the hole - no scissors required. Also, if you add a triangle of fabric at each corner, to strengthen the grommet, and sew those triangles into your seams, it will really strengthen the whole piece.
@@sazennonumber yes it does, because its basically chiseling out the material, so you can do many thick layers at a time. Thats also why there was that strange cut out on the side, so that you can clean out the fabric from the tool. It's kind of like an apple corer, but for fabric
I would also add, don't cut the holes if you can. Like, with huge grommets it's going to be harder, but if you can use an awl and make a hole without cutting any threads that will make the hole and the fabric much more stable and less likely to fray. If you do cut a hole, try to make sure it's smaller than the grommet. You want a grommet to be able to grab onto the fabric and if the edges of the hole fray the grommet has nothing to grab onto to.
Great video! I've made the over-the-door supply organizer. It's sturdier if you put a dowel along the top and/or a middle grommet. It will sag with anything heavy. Big Hugs!
I really like that these ideas were well thought with a specific team member in mind rather than creating things just for the "tips" of the DIY items. Added a really nice personal touch to see the DIYs fulfilling a storage need for each person!
A couple of ideas of things you can make using grommets are banners/signs and tote bags. You could use the grommets on a tote bag where the handles would go. Feed the fabric, rope, or whatever you will use as the handle, through the grommet hole and tie off into a knot to secure. The knot could be on the outside for aesthetics. Another idea is to make a tissue box cover and a larger grommet in the middle of the top as the hole where the tissue comes out. I saw a pillow cover that used grommets on the edges of both sides to tie the panel covers together through the grommets and another pillow with a sash going down one side of the pillow with three large grommets as a design feature. Love Your Channel!
I once bought 2 club chairs and an ottoman at a garage sale and slip covered them in the drop cloth. They got washed frequently and held up well for years.
A shout out and thank you. I had been searching for a solution for my husband's hat "situation". The hat organizer project was super easy. I made two...one using a hole saw and one using a spade bit. Both easy but different processes.
@@maravm818 I didn’t say anything towards those, my comment was positive and supportive and I would have made it regardless of what I saw. Justin is very talented and I do wish the best for the Sorry Girls team
I placed grommets on my outdoor pillows to hang on hooks near my back door. The hanging pillows line up horizontally over a bench, providing a lovely back cushion for it, when I’m not using them outdoors. You could add grommets to your patio pillows and perhaps hang them on your garage wall?
Such a good timing! I'm just in the progress of organizing and moving around crafty stuff all around my apartment. Thanks sorry girls and the crew!! Been a fan for 11yrs 🎉❤
Hey Kelse, LOVE learning about this new material to use as a base!! I'd like to suggest the addition of some wall pockets to it though too, so you can tuck in receipts, group papers, etc. and MAXIMIZE the surface area. Have you thought of that? Just cup up another sack. You can easily use hot glue, (and your trusty stapler on one side 'blind' then fold over, so you can't see staples). You might wanna duck tape the fabric on the back-you didn't have much clearance there. Way to rock this project! P.S. Please tell Rachel to bring back her eyebrows. 😉
another way u could arrange the pockets to avoid so much hemming is (if you have extra fabric) to fold the pocket strips more like almost a letter fold where its in thirds so the hems are just all hidden together
I own my home so I could do this ,you may not want to if you rent . I put the screw in I hooks to hang mine up .Works perfect I used the half inch. It's as big as the closet door and full of new bottles of cleaner and supplies. Each one labeled so when I make my shopping list it's easy... empty spot ...dish detergent - on the list ! This has been a game changer for me cuts out the Extras! Our thrift stores here has lots of these cheap but no hangers.
I use clear shoe wall hangings ...they have pockets for the shoes/ supplies and since they are clear you can see everything. Great for art supplies hanging in my studio.
Instead of meticullously cutting out the grommet holes with scissors, the kit comes with a round punch that you can use. It was the second tool you showed off at 15:12. Much faster, I imagine!
I also loved that audiobook! I recommend Matthew Perry's "Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing" and Matthew McConaughey "Green Lights", and if you liked the Royal Family, Prince Harrys "Spare" is good.
I'm cracking up at you saying that the green is not the vibe because usually you're like GREEN!! That's so cool about the coffee bags! What a neat find.
Kelsey, you need to add a 3rd grommet in the middle or the two grommets will slide together, alternatively you can add a dowel to hold the width firmly open.
I’m super picky about audiobook narrators. Gotta recommend the Stormlight Archives by Brandon Sanderson. The narrators rock and those books are like 60 hours long each.
i saw a leather jacket with holes throughout the jacket and then the grommets were attached in each hole. i think that would be really edgy. or something laced up with the grommets
audiobook recommendation: sand talk by tyson yunkaporta. super eye opening book about indigenous practices and sustainability, and it’s recorded by the author!
Yellowstone gets way better the longer you watch and succession started annoying me a bit. So no not the same, my opinion is Yellowstone is a better series but succession isn’t bad for its type of series
Isn't the hat storage supposed to be the other way around? It seems upside-down how you installed it at Justin's. Either way: amazing idea and execution!
You talk about sustainability. Have you investigated native gardening yet? I know you lose plants every year and what you plant isn't food for native pollinators and their friends. Spring is coming!
Listen, I love the Sorry Girls channel and have been a subscribe for a v long time! But-if we could veer away from the clickbait-y video titles, I would be so grateful 😬 Just feels like it cheapens the videos you guys work so hard to put together. But thats just my suggestion and you guys keep doing you!
I know TSG is very recycle oriented and I just wanted to mention audio books can be rented from your local library. I listen to at least 7 a week I have learned to reserve the audiobooks and can usually get books is within weeks of release. So please talk up your local library as a source for audio books.
Damn time flies by so fast!! because i remember watching an episode where u guys decorated a space in the office for the new editor who was coming in which was justin!
I would also recommend iron on interfacing before you cut out the holes to prevent fraying and add even more support to the hole. (or you could add Fray-Check). And, if you pleat between the pockets, it will make them dimensional, like cargo pockets, and they'll hold more.
My husband who is a audiophile is obsessed with Sonopan. We've made wood frames around them at points then upholster with fabric and put up around the house as art/sound dampening!
Hey:) you doing great. I really enjoy watching anything you make but also missing classic sorry girls makeovers. I hope you design other people space as well.❤
As someone who has no storage (living in a trailer) these are what i need. Vertical space. I just hung up some floating shelves using one of the pocket holes method from your videos.
That Sorry Girls label tag was a sweet touch! ❤
Who else was waiting for Kelsey to build a tiny pin board for the Mouse in her little mouse house by the original pin board? 🥰🐁🐭
lolz! maybe soon!!
Genius!!
That open end of the metal tool is to cut the fabric right where you want the hole - no scissors required. Also, if you add a triangle of fabric at each corner, to strengthen the grommet, and sew those triangles into your seams, it will really strengthen the whole piece.
Great advice, I wondered about reinforcing that piece! Thanks ❤
Wow, I had no idea.. that would make the process so much easier. I wonder if it cuts holes out of thicker materials as well?
@@sazennonumber yes it does, because its basically chiseling out the material, so you can do many thick layers at a time. Thats also why there was that strange cut out on the side, so that you can clean out the fabric from the tool. It's kind of like an apple corer, but for fabric
@@shelbyhiromi So cool! Thank you so much 🙏 Makes me want to buy one and play around with it.

don't recommend burlap, it's too loosely woven and will fray badly

GROMMET PANTS!! Like the cutout jeans 👖
Literally came here for this!!! 🔥
I wonder if they would be heavy 🤔 I hope the sorry girls try it!
Love your idea! And so many ways to do it too.
YAAASSSSSSS!!! Such a good idea!!!
I have a tunic with grommets around the neckline and hem. I don’t know what metal the grommets are made of, but they’re not too heavy.
The SG logo on the over the door thing!❤❤❤

my organizer is literally my favourite thing ever I have filled it up even more now!! thank you K
💗💗💗
Drop cloths are also so great to dye! I love the texture on them and you can make them any color you need for your project!
I once bought 2 club chairs and an ottoman at a garage sale and slip covered them in the drop cloth. They got washed frequently and held up well for years.

i noticed too. thank you justin for your hard work! glad you’re here 😘
those seem to be old, maybe just let him be and don‘t point it out

Could not believe my ears when Kelsey said: “Obviously this GREEN is not really the vibe.”
For the grommets you could do curtains or some kind of diy backdrop. Or a room separator panel that could be strung onto a simple frame?
oooo love that!
@@TheSorryGirls oh or the panel could fold with some hinges :)
BYMB! So happy for and proud of the Sorry Girls' on this next step in their business! ❤
The hat rack is pretty cool.
I loved the coffee bag style!! But totally get why you painted it ❤
Such a good timing! I'm just in the progress of organizing and moving around crafty stuff all around my apartment. Thanks sorry girls and the crew!! Been a fan for 11yrs 🎉❤
Great job, Kelsie! Loved every one of your DIYs.
I could watch your videos everyday!
awww thanks!

Thanks for reminding me a coffee shop near me also has coffee bags!😮
Never been first in my life, and ive been subbed for years, lets go girlies.
You did it!
👏👏👏
You made a jig for your hat rack. Nice!!!!
The pin board gave me detective red lines to pin vibes too 😂 detective Kelsey on the hunt for loose papers 😂lol
I'm definitely going to ask my coffee shop if they have giveaway bags..I love the board idea!!!
But I'm going to keep the design.
Yellowstone is indeed country Succession! (the prequels to Yellowstone are bomb!!!!)
another way u could arrange the pockets to avoid so much hemming is (if you have extra fabric) to fold the pocket strips more like almost a letter fold where its in thirds so the hems are just all hidden together
Omg the little TSG tag on the door hanger organizer!?!!❤❤❤
Using the drop cloth as fabric is so smart!
Loved all the DIYs!!

I ❤ this series!!
❤ wow! The last one was the best
Not Alexis Mateo’s BAM! 😂😂😂
The fabric organizer is giving me shoe organizer vibes and I can’t not see it.
Totally gotta try the hat rack for my hubs and two boys. There are so many hats between them
Omg wish you could make one for my husband such a good idea to display hats!!
I'm cracking up at you saying that the green is not the vibe because usually you're like GREEN!! That's so cool about the coffee bags! What a neat find.
Kelsey I love the moustache shaped bangs😂
I love the energy this video has Guys!
Now you gotta make a bathroom curtain with the grommets 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Great projects.
Kelsey, you need to add a 3rd grommet in the middle or the two grommets will slide together, alternatively you can add a dowel to hold the width firmly open.
Grommet DIYS: grommet belt, curtains, shower curtain, wall tapestry, banner/sign, tote bag
Yes, Yellowstone is just Cowboy Succession. Lol
I’m super picky about audiobook narrators. Gotta recommend the Stormlight Archives by Brandon Sanderson. The narrators rock and those books are like 60 hours long each.
Hello from KY love you and your channel ❤️.Do you guys still do various paid jobs? If so would love to see them.❤❤
Vary nice!!! Love the hat rack!!
Kelsey's bangs are giving Squilliam Fancyson.
You need to be on more often. I love watching you and your videos. Miss seeing your beautiful redhead and face. Please share more of your work!
For the grommets, I could see you in a cute skirt with the grommets lining the bottom of the skirt. I think it was a thing in the 80's
I think you can remove a door temporarily just by pulling the center pin out? You don't have to unscrew the hinges. Great video!!
you’re so right. I just thought hinges would be easier than popping a pin out of a 100-year-old door
@@TheSorryGirlsAH! Makes sense!
I think you should DIY an ironing board 😅
Love the projects!!!!
Question, Kelsey- where is that black sleeveless top from? It’s gorgeous
thredup!
This was fun! ❤
glad you enjoyed it!
i saw a leather jacket with holes throughout the jacket and then the grommets were attached in each hole. i think that would be really edgy. or something laced up with the grommets
Cant believe I’m this earlier 😂 good morning y’all 💟☮️
morning!
i want a rochelle power tool tutorial
Where did you get that Wimbledon sweater????? I NEED!! You're going to say thrifted - I know it!
yep! from thredup!
Door organizer needs 2 more grommets and a metal rod at the top, in case it gets heavy stuff.,
Yellowstone is not the country version of Succession! It’s way better. And Kevin Kostner is a great lead.
❤️❤️❤️
Kelsey was miss ❤

👗 validating
Anyone else HATE the kissing sound? Whenever people do the chefs kiss (esp if I’ve got headphones on) I want to crawl out of my skin. Just me?
for wanting not to forget all your paperwork, putting it behind a door is the best idea.
i call the "male" side of a grommet the top hat, cuz that's what they look like, especially on smaller ones
Isn't the hat storage supposed to be the other way around? It seems upside-down how you installed it at Justin's. Either way: amazing idea and execution!
Is it just me or is the audio a little more echoey lately?
Rachel, missed opportunity to say “Sorry, girl” instead of “Sorry, dear” 🤣 maybe next time.
Love Rachael but her eyebrows did in fact jump scare me again. (And i wouldnt say this if she didnt acknowledge it in a prior video)
please be careful with long hair and jewelry around power tools!! it's better to be safe than sorry
early gang
👏👏👏
My husband said Yellowstone is the country Sons of Anarchy whereas Succession is like Game of Thrones
The sound quality of the intro was really not it
Kellie? Saying no to green?
You talk about sustainability. Have you investigated native gardening yet? I know you lose plants every year and what you plant isn't food for native pollinators and their friends. Spring is coming!

“I’m obsessed” is like nails on a chalk board!! Such a Kardashianism 🤮
So good ❤❤❤
4:26 Rachel saying “I’m sorry, dear” is a whole mood. I love seeing the behind the scenes from multiple projects going on in the workshop!!
Came here to say just that. Rachel’s voice is just amazing. She should do podcasts
I love Rachel’s vibe on TSG and her projects but she doesn’t seem happy to be there anymore. Something feels off and has for a while. No?
Never thought I’d hear Kelsey say that green is “not the vibe” 😂
