HYeeLLLOO!! Welcome to another video where I'm collecting crafts like dragon's gold. This week: needle felting (or wool felting). I was lucky enough to have Savannah come visit and teach me the ropes to make a special little creature! Much chaos ensued, so I hope you enjoy.

Rachel should 100% make lil felted mice for her hobbit hole! That'd be so cute lol
That was my thought too!
yess
YES!!!
Yes 1 down 1 to go ;)
I am ALL for this.
I'm a professional felting artist and squealed when you posted this video. You should definitely make little characters for your hobbit hole and can even felt tiny pumpkins and whatnot for when you want to decorate their home seasonally.
PS- thank you so much for enriching our lives with your personality, humor, creativity, and whimsy. You're a delight :)
oooh yes, we definitely need autumn asthetic accessories for the hobbit hole. Tiny pumpkins! Tiny bats! Little cups of tea and coffee!
@@brookeg5979 oh! Yes to tiny bats!
@@brookeg5979 I thought this said "autumn autistic accessories" and I temporarily felt so seen 😂
Tiny pumpkins. Let that sink in... Autumn-felty-whimsical-GOODNESSSSSSS!
YOS
I feel like Rachel is our friendly internet Kindergarten teacher and we’re her paste-eating students with sticky-jam-hands in awe of another one of her projects. 🍄
Perfect description. We have guest teachers sometimes too
I love that sticky jam hands reference!!! 🥹👏🏻👏🏻 (makes frog jam toast and tea for my fellow classmates) 💜✨🍵🍓🍒🍊*don’t worry, frog jam stands for fig, raspberry, orange, & ginger not actual frog.* 🐸💚 Lol!
Totally!
Our whiskey granpa, crafty aunt, and friendly kindergarten teacher.
no this exactly!! I always watch her videos when I'm in that mindset where you just want to color and eat some kid food
Rachel and Savannah together was a gift, genuinely laughed out loud many times, and that reveal video was amazing!
Savannah reminds me of Bette Midler
couldn't agree more, both of them are so beautiful human beings and so delightful to watch !!!!
You and Savannah seem like such fun friends! I love that she introduced herself by delicately stepping out of a wardrobe, and screaming 🤣
LOL! I didn’t think it was possible, but we found someone who's even quirker than Rachel is. 🤣👍👏🙌
This is how I am going to introduce myself from now on.
Ur frog turned out great😄👍, but girl almost a 2/3 of ur video was just 🍑 jokes😳🥸.
Aw man I wish i hadn't looked at the comments before that happened 😂
I scared the crap out of my husband on our wedding night by jumping out of an old, ornate wardrobe in my dress and yelling "NARNIA!!!". Thanks for bringing back the memories Savannah :D
Lol the editing made this even better! I had such a freaking blast doing this with you! We have to meet up again and do some other chaotic crafts 😂🤠
Savannah, you were a blast to watch. You and Rachel are obviously perfect partners in felting and crime.
I really enjoyed watching you and Rachel just be silly and enjoy each other’s company. I absolutely loved your pink “air conditioning” outfit. So pretty!
You guys were brilliant together ...now i want to stab things!
This was so fun to watch, and I love your style!
Queen
Rachel: Lets try needle felting!
Immediately makes giant frog where most people make a small ball with ears.
For a first time needlefelting project, she done good.
The first time I tried needle felting I tried making a little cat head with ears. I made the ball and never continued. It was also the last time I tried it
I made a tiny dog idk what I was thinking, it was hard to attach stuff because it was small, had to fix some parts years later (because I got back into the craft)
Love how the hair gems increased and decreased in number constantly throughout this video! You guys seemed like you had so much fun and it was such a good time to watch!!
At first I thought “Rachel, you have styrofoam in your hair!” But soon realized they were little gems 😍 lighting can trick the eye so easily, but the gems and Savannah were a treat!
I'm loving this trend of Rachel just trying out a bunch of crafts that I'm too broke to attempt myself. Lets me live vicariously through her.
Needle felting is something that looks fun but in practice I found unexpectedly annoying. It also expensive. As I’m probably not the only one who found it annoying, keep your eyes peeled in thrift stores etc for part used kits that people have started and not finished. You can find a surprising amount of stuff that way for next to nothing and at least get chance to try it and see if it is worth saving up for. I thought I’d love it. Two different friends bought me two different kits to try. I hate them both and never finished either. I also tried making stuff at work in a group activity, hated that too. No idea. Seems like it should be fun but I just hate that stabbing motion.
@@dees3179 Oh right, you hated it, so others should just buy second hand junk to try it aswell?
Yo 🔥th-cam.com/video/rdJ9bsN7JAw/w-d-xo.html.. .
@@drhannibelle Huh? If people want to just try it for the first time and not invest too much, isn't it better to buy the stuff that is already there and cheaper? That's all they said. Doesn't mean everybody else will dislike because they did. I personally like needle-felting, but never bought one of those kits so no idea what they are like.
@@drhannibelle Let's try a little 'peace in our time', shall we? I believe Dee was giving their opinion on how they liked a thing or not. With suggestions on how to save a little cash, instead of buying things off the big box store shelving. Deep breath. Sorry you're having a bad day. Maybe see you around the interwebs some time. Cheers.

The reveal montage feels like the opening credits to a cozy off-brand 60s family show. Savannah gave me big Bewitched vibes ✨️
I thought the same thing re. Bewitched! haha was just about to comment it
This reveal montage is probably my favorite part of the video.
I love how Rachels hair is getting more and more bedazzled the more time she spends with Savannah
Omg I love Savannah. Didn't know her before this but she's like a parallel universe version of you 🤣
Her humor is *chefs kiss *
same!!!! she's awesome!!!
I think what we need now is a Rachel and Savannah’s crafting show this was too good
Yessssss
I SECOND MOTION
I also vote for this crafting show!!!
Yes it would be awesome. 😍
Seconded! More of these two together please!
Savannah is HILARIOUS, I died when she started singing and flapping her dress around for "air conditioning" 😂🤣you two also have a very similar voice ! Too cute!
very similar voices!!! I thought that too! 😄
i’ve never seen someone match rachel’s energy as perfectly as savannah
The friendship and comedic chemistry going on is just too good for this to NOT be a regular installment on you guys' channels.
"The Children Beneath the Lily Pads" sounds like a book I would have LOVED in Primary School.
Maybe her next vid can be about her adventures in creating a childrens' book by that name??
@@iprobablyforgotsomething That would be FANTASTIC.
I am 150% on board for the "Rachel tries this new craft thing" series!
i'm so in love with the dynamic between rachel and savannah. both are absolutely hilarious and the references made me laugh every time
I love her confident energy. Just being herself unapologetically. Definitely giving her a follow. You guys look like you're having alot of fun, reminds me of my neighbor/garden buddy. Next time do this but with wine.
OMG that scene when you showed him and then a head shot floating in space off to the right..... hysterical 😭 great job on the frog, the overalls, the flap, the banjo, the toadstool, the production, the video, the friendship, the popping out the wardrobe, the pond shot of the real frog, both holding his hands and spinning him...... so creative.....so funny...... so many things...... so enjoyable to watch..... Thank you both ❤️❤️
LOL! I didn’t think it was possible, but we found someone who's even quirker than Rachel is. 🤣👍👏🙌
For me, the plaid "Ass Hatch" to see the wee cute buns - "Chef's Kiss!"
Savannah literally looks like a bubblegum fairy, she's great! And needle felting is soooo fun, so I'm not complaining about yet another craft being added to the channel
I wish I had friends like you and Savannah in my life; style icons, insanely talented, able to keep up with the random references and engage in mutual oddness. What a pair of legends. 😊
10000% agreed!!!!!!!!! 😍😍😍😍
He's ADORABLE! And wow, that was an ambitious first needle felting project! It turned out amazing though. My first one was a tiny purple mushroom with green spots. My biggest one to date was Pretzel Jack from season 4 of Channel Zero. I regret to say I stabbed my poor fingers MANY times in the process of making both. But this video still made me wanna dig out my felting supplies and make something again!
When Nicholas has had it up to his ears with little, miniature, tiny, adorable, felt creatures all around the house, be sure to make a teeny-tiny wittle nicholas and give it to him as a peace offering 😂
Adored the little frog man and your video, as always! Thanks for making such fun content! :D
You mean a voodoo doll...? 😅
Yo 🔥th-cam.com/video/rdJ9bsN7JAw/w-d-xo.html..
I INSTANTLY fell in love with Savannah, I've not ever heard of her before and she is such a fun personality, am now off to binge her channel. Hope you make many more mini-felts and mini-mice-houses!!!
I just wanted to share a fun story. I recently showed my mum (whose age I will not ~expose~) one of your videos. She loved making clothes and knick knacks when she was younger. Now when we get to hang out and relax, she asks me to put "the woman" up on her TV and quietly hmms to herself "yes" when she agrees with your sewing decisions 😂 and "oh silly" when frodo lies atop your patterns. Every video finishes with "oh that's just gorgeous, she's got the look!" She laughs and has a great time. She told me to let you know that she loves your show. You are her first and only favourite TH-camr! ♥️
That reveal made my whole day 😂 love vicariously doing all the crafts through Rachel!
The energy of these two ladies was the thing I didn't know I needed. Savannah and Rachel are just the friends I would love to chit chat with (and to make cute little felted froggies with, obviously) !
Right? This was the best reveal ever for that very reason!
Savannah just feels like one of the coolest people ever and the froggy is really cute. Go play that Rainbow Connection.
I loved the chaos here. You two were comedy gold together! I can’t wait to see the miniature felted masterpieces you come up with next!
Everything about this video is exactly the chaotic creative energy I crave
This was such a treat! My husband watched a good bit of this with me and he thinks the line "for the children below" makes sense since tadpoles live in water until they mature. 🐸
Absolutely in love with how cute that little frog is! His accessories are perfection, and I love his little outfit. The butt flat was an excellent idea, one must be able to view shapely froggy butt cheeks when the whim strikes! He looks so much like the image on the pillow - well done for your first needle felting attempt!
We need more Savannah! She’s such a vibe :3
I have always wanted to learn how to needle felt! I’m totally loving this Rachel Learns New Crafts series. This was so much fun, and your banjo-playing frog and his little mushroom are perfect. The reveal was my absolute favorite thing ever!
What an icon, even at an expo, she won’t leave us without content ❤️
🙄
@@wanyatelborn what’s with the attitude
@@wanyatelborn girl bye your whole personality is commenting rude stuff in this channel. 48 COMMENTS ON THIS CHANNEL girl get a life
@@wanyatelborn Jealous late-middle aged women whose channel is devoid of content and who clearly isn’t getting enough attention from anyone in her life or Russian troll? It’s a mystery.
The mascot we didn't know we needed. But the mascot we damn well deserve.
This is adorable. I feel like I need a weekly show called Chaotic Crafting with Rachel and Savannah!
There's something enormously hilarious and endearing about seeing two friends be so clearly on the exact same wavelength.
This was the cutest, most wholesome chaotic thing. I love all of it. Hope Savannah can come back for more videos in the future!
OMG arguably the best reveal yet- just based on the comedy…🤣😂🤣☠️ I just can’t. Just when I think Rachel can’t be any more hilarious we get her pink haired side kick! Love you both *edited to say Savannah is a superhero 🦸♀️
Not you calling Savanah “her pink haired side kick” 😭
@@epice5452 your right! She is much more than that! Love her! She is a superhero!
If you aren't aging into a craft learning and hording version of Smaug what are you even doing?
Rachel is adulting in all the right ways - embracing the inner child and making all the things.
Thanks for the inspiration!! I have so many ideas now to join in the Smaug life journey
that's beautifully put, might put it on my wall :))
She is exactly what I'd imagine a friend of yours to be like! 🤣❤️ Perfection!
P.S. Bravo for the small Barbs! 🤣
exactly what I was thinking! so nice to see Rachel around people she loves
I could watch 80 more videos of you and Savannah. This was some straight up wholesome delightful crafting chaos and I. AM. HERE. FOR. IT.
rachel and savannahs energy combined is AMAZING
I keep coming back to this video just because of the energy. It's chaotic, creative, warm and just overall everything I need with a warm cuppa.
This is the most adorable, positive, silly, joyful video EVER! I laughed so much and my face hurts from smiling through the whole half hour. From your silly songs, to the spinning in the garden, to the 90s portrait at the end... this video is fantastic. I'm book marking this for days when I need a smile and joy. Thank you so much for creating this!
Ballerina Toad-Boy-No-Neck Freddy Three Toes looks tsundere and is SO adorable, I'm so in love with this froggie!! For your first project it looks sooo good!! Can't wait to see you bringing more adorableness needle felting creatures into this world!
"tsundere" oh my goodness yes 🤣🤣
I would just LOVE to see more collabs with you two, I'd even watch you both talk about literal paint drying youre both so funny together
Oh my Goodness he's adorable. I've done several needle felting projects and they aren't easy! Savannah is so sweet and adorable!🤗😘😁
The reveal video was deadly 🤣! Only you could be totally new to a hobby and then make a heartbreakingly perfect piece of whimsy 💖
For your first stab at needle felting, he looks absolutely amazing! 🐸
I see what you did there, wink wink, lol
@@languageresources2314 😁
Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk! Good one!
I started needle felting in lockdown 2020 - I made a Bumblebee 🐝 (a beginners kit) , I made a cat for my sister (she has a cat) which was a bit more challenging but i changed it slightly to make it more personal to her and some succulents for my bedroom as I wanted some greenery. It’s so much fun and relaxing, once you learn the basics anything is possible 👍🏻
That Savannah intro was….perfect. *chef’s kiss* ❤😂
No-Neck-Fred turned out so darn cute! I love how you and Savannah vibe together; it seems like you've been friends for ages!
Savannah full on has fairy craft mother vibes and I am here for it! You're both so precious!
Oh my goodness! I just about choked to see the functional butt flap... 🤣
I never knew the amount of joy that could come from Frog Cheeks. This was an absolute treasure to experience. It's so adorable! As are you both! 💕
I am so in love with this little toad boy. He is perfection. The montage. PERFECTION. This was a 10/10 experience.
this might be my new favorite video, the friendship dynamic is iconic and I love seeing new crafts
I actually laughed out loud with the "puts the lotion on the skin" while stabbing Ballerina Toad 🤣 ❤️
This was so fun to watch, and congratulations Rachel, for learning something new while making something beautiful
I can't get over how happy you look in this video. Clearly doing things like this is your jam and I am HERE for it
She does look really glowy but also that sheen that comes from perspiring in a very warm place. 🥵🥵I can relate between SW heat in the US and hot flashes, I glow a lot. 😆🙄
The entire video I was waiting for this interaction:
Rachel: Congrats Nick you're a father.
Rachel: **aggressively shows frog son**
this instantly put a fully vivant image in my head thank you
You and Savannah have the best, most gloriously chaotic vibes I have ever seen 👌
He turned out so cute! I tried needle felting and just didn't have the patience, so it's awesome to see you thriving and giving it a fabulous go!
AH I didn’t know I needed to see a froggy in overa-….toaderalls! But I definitely did. AHHHHHH MAKE NEEDLEFELTED MICE FOR THE MOUSE HOBBIT HOLE!!!
Yes, that would be a *mice* thing to do!
literally the first 5 seconds of meeting savannah made me fall in love, oh my goodness what a wonderful video
This was such a treat to see you collaborate with one of your friends! You two made such a cute lil froggy boy and such a fun video to watch!
Okay so the whole thing is frickin ADORABLE but you know what made me almost weep? THOSE BUTTONS.
The reveal brought me so much joy to watch! This was such a ✨delight✨
First of all, little froggie boy came out so cute. The reveal was perfect I was giggling all throughout this video. Second, Savannah is so funny, I'm so glad she came and taught you such a cute hobby. More savannah!!!!!
The montage towards the end made me so happy.
Hey Rachel! If you want a fun dog mama craft you can needle felt Frodo’s undercoat when he sheds! I did this with my dogs fur and made a tiny needle felted version of him with his own fur. Definitely a crazy project but I love my tiny felted boy.
You and Savannah are absolutely hilarious together! The needle felting lesson and the beautiful banjo frog were just the icing on the cake of this goofy fun fest!
Uh oh
I have to try this now. Your froggy gentlemen turned out too cute 😳
Your ad timer in the top corner is one of my favorite things. That is next-level viewer service.
I am currently in a residential hospital for my OCD and I miss home so much. I'm in a whole different state. And I watch your videos to make me feel safe and warm! I'm so grateful for you and that you share with us! Thank you. It makes my stay here a little easier.
First of all Savannah is ADORABLE! Ran over to her channel.
Second: I have wanted to do felting for several years! I love that this craft is getting attention.
Third: I spit coffee on my phone twice watching this, I want to be in this friend circle.
Thank you for the video !!
That montage at the end was hilarious 😆! I’m glad I’d already finished my coffee or I would have had it streaming out of my nose, I laughed so hard! Great way to end the week! Keep making amazing, quirky and creative videos 🤪
For someone that plays Banjo. You have no idea. How happy you just made this girl!!!!
The energy in this video is impeccable, please invite Savannah back in the future
the energy between them I LOVE IT
frog actually came out amazing
The reveal sequence made me laugh so much Rachel, thanks for that 😂 also saw someone else say this too, you should definitely make little mouse characters to go in your hobbit hole
Ok. Everyone needs friends like these two. Incredible
An absolute delight from start to finish! Thank you for not horribly injuring yourself, the fear of which is the main thing keeping me from trying out this skill.
The frog, Savannah, the editing, you, are all perfection and the type of content that made me smile after a bad week, thank you 💗
I enjoy needle felting, but I gave my cats the early pieces to play with and destroy for me instead of storing or throwing them away. Now they think all the felting is for them. They even steal the baggies of wool. They absolutely love them.
I can’t lie, the glamor shot at the end was perfection.
I can't handle how adorable he is. You've outdone yourself again, Rachel
With Halloween coming I would love to see a Halloween themed felt creature🙌
There were just too many things in this video I loved to comment
my airbending skills are unmatched 😎
That is the most adorable thing in the whole world!! My first needle felted attempt was terrible…this is amazing!
That was my most favorite video you have ever made because you look like you are having a wonderful time with your friend. You always look like you are having great fun in your videos but this time you looked even happier than normal. Love the Froggo
Love you two together 💖 It's always special when people of the same kind and humor unite to form a force of creativity and lolz.
The best Friday ritual, watching Rachel
As someone who makes renaissance fashion dolls on my channel, I fully endorse and support your miniature and needle felting adventures. Rock on!
Pleeeeaaaaase bring Savannah back some day!!! 😍 You two are vibing so well together. (And/or make more collabs with friends of yours, please?)
I never had the urge to needle felt, but you guys make it look like a lot of fun! Side note: You both have amazing hair 💕
Were you distracted by the white dots that were in their hair all of a sudden? It took me a minute to realize they were crystal decorations for the hair and not styrofoam pieces. 🤭 I was like ‘where the styrofoam come from and how come her friend is just letting it stay there on camera?! 😆😆
@@angb6616 Haha, I was also confused by those until I realized they sparkled 😄
That reveal was the best thing I’ve ever seen - the entire thing
This was absolutely delightful! And the reveal was sooooo good! You could easily have added 20 more minutes of you frolicing around with Three Toe Fred :D He turnes out absolutely darling! : D
right??? I would have watched that 😂♥
That kermit meme at the end put me OVER THE EDGE - this was perhaps the funniest one of your videos I've enjoyed in a while. I had a great time, that was awesome!!
