Okay team, ideas for the fabric?! 🌈
Summer top, crop top, light and breezy button up tee could be fun, especially oversized, though the fabric does look loose for a tee.
Two👏piece👏suit👏!!!
That fabric looks like it would make a lovely blouse. Maybe with massive billowy sleeves.
A puffy sleeve, pirate-esque blouse, for da summer vibes
Crisp button up shirt you could wear under a blazer.. wait.. actually, whatever you decide, please take the leftover cuts and make a dickey/false collar. I would live for a Disney collar peeking out from under a sweater come Fall.
This channel is criminally underrated considering how absolutely sharp and funny Kathleen is, there isn't a single boring second in any of the videos
The bonk got me good 😂
Ikr!!
agreed. she’s gonna blow up huge, it’s just a matter of time
Yea
She’ll be blowing up in no time!!!
The real fun of the thrift store is not the what we take home, but the weird, quirky and potential finds we meet along the way
I feel like now that Kathleen knows she can record audio from across the thrift store, she is entering her feral era and I love that journey for her.
* *feral kathleen howl from across the thrift store* *
oh my GOD, seeing this comment notification made my entire day, keep going you chaotic thrift goblin! -from yet another chaotic thrift goblin
you admitting to reading MCR fanfic made me hit the subscribe button, you left me no choice
Sweet, gentle Kashi prancing down the stairs 😭
Such a gentle old man!!!
if you clamp those papers together and glue one side with pva you can make them into a paper pad
Came here to say that 😊
Yesss another MCR fanfic reader! Not only did I read fanfics, I used to buy every magazine with them in it that I could, cut out the articles and stick them on my bedroom wall. They're still a favourite 16 years later 😄
Really appreciate your thrifting videos as it means I can get a rush from thrifting without going to the actual store 😅
I like that you show trips where everything is chaotic and something smells and you don't find anything amazing (vintage clothing-wise that is). It makes me feel validated lol because the thrift near me is not amazing. I love your channel and you really inspire me! 💕
Kathleen you are such a relaxing person and you make me laugh. Love a good Kathleen.
“Love a good Kathleen” 😂😂😂💕 thanks em!!
@@KathleenIllustrated Lmao no problem love!!
And we are so in sync! the last thing I thrifted (for free! ) was a crazy colorful 90s lion king sheet and I was just thinking if I should make a dress or shorts and a Hawaiian shirt from it!
Hawaiian shirt and matching shorts sounds so darn cute! Take hakuna matata to the beach!
I vote dress!
You have such big Friendship energy. ❤
We had the mickey sheets growing up. The 2 little mice are Morty and Ferdy, mickey's nephews. Don't know what disney did with them 😅
^this
I’m a grown ass adult with a degree in English, and I still read fanfic (our flag means death is my current fav, since you asked for specifics). After reading so many classics and serious, usually sad stories, sometimes it just nice to watch two character you already know kiss and all that good stuff, lol.
Hot tip for the lazy rucher - instead of fussing with sewing a channel you can buy curtain pleating/ruching tape that comes pre assembled and you just sew it in place on the interior (not very pretty for the exterior)
KATHLEEN!! Your thrift gods blessings passed to me and I found so many cottage-core items and cool pants yesterday! I got a hand painted squirrel on a slice of wood, a little frog friend candle holder, and the cuuutest lil bowls with heart motifs. Also my shameful fanfiction reading moment was becoming so enthralled in a lotr fanfic that when a character died I sobbed uncontrollably. My precious mom was so confused because I couldn't explain it to her without crying even more.
Loved the calm yet chaotic energy in this video! Would you ever consider doing a video about your house? It looks really cool and vintage and mid century and i would love to see more of it if you're up for it
I can't believe how quickly you've become my comfort TH-camr! I picked up a sewing pattern from 1968 today at a car boot sale! It's a pattern for a cute kind of mod-style pinafore dress, so that's my suggestion for the fabric! a kitschy cute pinafore in Mickey fabric lol
Love the unhinged energy of revealing you reading fanfic when thrifting in public, could never be me 👀, but I guess I do admire it. aAnd I think that the layering-dress-quasi-pinafore from the disney sheet could look amazing, idw but the pattern gives pinaforeish/50's (?) vibes. Otherwise a pijama thing, even if less fun for sure.
(Shout-out to the vintage absolutely gorgeous green dress, always good to see it).
Your videos are always so fun, they make me want go around and create something!!
So glad I've recently discovered you! Your thrifting tips helped me have an AMAZING day full of fabulous finds the other day! Wore an amazing outfit last night that cost me $23 😅
i love the fact that you used to read mcr fan fics honestly. mostly because i myself am an mcr fan and love to see other mcr fans! :D
SAME
We were/are not OKAAAAAAaaaaaaaaAAAAYyyyyyyy
@@wearefallingapart best reply ever:D
I’m okay (trust me 😘)
This may be a basic sounding suggestion but since the mickey table cloth is rounded, how bout a circle skirt? A poodle skirt? Pluto could be the literal poodle of the skirt! wow that just hit me. Anyway, scuzie moi cuz the tornado siren is about to go off in my neck of the woods. Every Sunday at noon🌪️🎉
yaaayyyy Sunday morning coffee with Kathleen! 🤗 Okay so I know you are going with that 80s pattern but before you did I pictured that fabric as a bubble skirt or a cropped tank top with wide straps or a cropped blouse (I'm seeing these very futuristic boxy blouses everywhere lately and I'm a little obsessed). But let's be real, if I bought that fabric, it would become: a tote bag. Because every piece of fabric in my possession eventually becomes a tote bag. ps I'm too old for Wattpad but in my head I wrote Galaxy Rangers fan fiction. I will now disavow all knowledge of this. 👀 Have an amazing week all you thrift goblins! xo
That stuffed snowman is a whole UNIT
I’m literally only a minute in but I am already intrigued. KATHLEEN THESE PANTS! BESTIE!
Your hair is just literally so majestic I can’t stop aweing at it !!!!
for the Disney material, I think you should go for a nice big circle skirt! could layer it nicely over jeans, other dresses, or wear as is
That is an ideal stack of paper for jotting down quick lists. I'll join you in the fan fiction shame. I was really into Star Trek Deep Space Nine fan fics for a while
I still read fanfic and I’m not embarrassed. I read fic for just about any show/movie/book series that interests me. I’m particularly weak for the grumpy one/the sunshine one pairings.
I read a tumblr post that talked about how fanfic is great for neurodivergent people because it’s a low effort high reward serotonin booster and it pays those rewards quickly because we already know the characters and the world they live in, and on Ao3 we can even filter the tags to find the tropes we’re in the mood for (and filter out triggering tags).
For the fabric all I can think of is the cute little romper/overall shorts I recently got for my nephew. They’re just cotton and baggy and have cute little buttons for the straps, just you know, grown up size lol. Pretty basic but with the print I think it would be fun
I LOVE SUNDAYS WHEN SHE POSTS
Ahh!! That Mickey sheet needs to be a wild kimono 👘 or not but ya OMGSH!! ☆☆☆☆☆
*kimono like boho Disney chic
Also I made a promise not to spend any money in the two upcoming months so I won't dare step in a thrift so I love love love living vicariously through you!
I think A two piece set of either a shirt and short or shirt and skirt combo would be cute with the Disney cloth!
My family has that exact same Santa statue from the beginning! It was so tall to me when I was little that it was scary. I think back when it had a working battery, there was a bottom at the base to make him move and it would play Santa speaking lol
Those trays are such a great find. I’m always on the lookout for any Japanese homeware in Thrift stores. It’s so easily overlooked. Thanks again for another great video. You’re the cutest!
shoutout to 14-year-old me reading MJ fanfic on a specified forum for it back in the day, AYOOOOOOOOO
I uh... write fanfiction 😂. Present tense. I'm 32.
Those playing card dishes are uh-mazing
I have had that Mickey fabric/sheet since the 80's! I use it as a sheet at night when it's hot.
The table cloth/bed sheet would make a cute skirt or button-up/button-down shirt. The pattern you have would also be very cute.
Even if you didn’t find a huge trove of goodies, this video was still incredibly fun. Excellent as always!
Whatever you make with that fabric.. make sure dad Mickey is front a center!!
I couldn't afford internet during what should have been my formative fan fic years, but I have considered writing Goofy movie fan fic. I feel like the widower photographer raising his son has potential.
I can’t imagine how much work it is to set up so many shots. Wowza!!!
I also used to read My Chemical Romance fanfiction. These days it's too varied to say. I cannot give that much up to the internet. Thank you for your vulnerability
Brooo..ur giving me such a comfortable vibe... ur funny and so entertaining💜💜💜💜and helpfull
kathleen, thank you for being the best owner an inanimate object you take along with you to thrift stores could have‼️
My 7 y/o and I are watching these and he goes "You guys are friends." Very matter of factly.
"You mean, you think we would be friends?"
"Yeah, you're friends. You both like thrift stores and pants."
You can wrap rubber bands in one direction around the pad of paper then brush liquid glue to a free edge of the stack. Let dry and you have yourself a diy memo pad. 🤗
Omg Kathleen, almost done the video now and saw the stack of mini pieces of paper and heard you say you could do mini drawings on them.
What if you did a little collage wall moment with a bunch of little drawings and made it into a video? Maybe you could make the drawings your favourite / most memorable thrift finds
I love this idea but instead of a collage what about a flip book?
Your energy is literally chicken soup for the soul
🔪🥹 this comment poked my heart!!! Thank you!
Lol. I haven't watched it yet. But the title made me think of the little kid snowboarding, looking forward to lots of little comments and noises.
OK. I got to tingle my wingle. I am satisfied. 😂
Gahhhhh I own that exact lamp in pink! A friend rescued it from the trash and just passed it on to me!
Recently discovered your channel! And have been binging on your videos! Keep ‘‘em coming please! ❤️
Literally same. This is now my comfort channel :)))
Me too!
Love watching your vids. I started with buffy fanfic and still binge fanfics now and then on ao3
Personally I can’t be embarrassed about the fanfic I’ve read (and still read) on ao3 bc I’ve found some actual wonderful novels on there. Never been on wattpad though 😂
I totally cracked up when you talked about the tornado drills. YES, happens to me all the time. I'm in Michigan. I've lived here all my life, so you'd think I'd be used to it, but it does still catch me off-guard. Not EVERY time, but more often than it should.
i genuiely think you are one of the only funny american youtubers i have come across
i have no idea what this says about me but i am FLATTERED! thanks! 😊🍀
The fan fiction moment unlocked repressed memories 😅Sabrina the teenage witch-- team Harvey, plus all the guys on inuyasha were on my fan fic radar 😫
the playing card trays 😭😍
Oh how I just absolutely adore you and your videos :’) 💗
these videos are always so inspiring!
I just found your channel a week ago and watching your videos always puts me in a great mood!
I can't think of anything else more entertaining than going thrifting with you on a sunday evening ❤😊❤
I am incredibly entertained after watching this ❤
Yay! I just finished binge watching all your videos and was so happy to see a new one today! That Mickey Mouse fabric is crazy! I can't wait to see how that pattern turns out.
You are hilarious! I’m obsessed! ❤
Hurray! Love when a new video drops! Lesgo!
THAT PATTERN IS EVERYTHING!!!!! Also, look into criswoodsews patterns because I feel like you'd kind of dig the style? Very 'gallery owner'.
I went thrifting today and really tried to channel your energy. Found some truly weird and wonderful items.
i do continue to read (JUST read cough cough) fanfic. im an ao3 supremacist though. and yes on the dystopian yawn midwestern tornado drills
Hey Kathleen ! I stumbled on your channel in my recommendations recently and you are so cool and fun to watch. I’m getting more and more into thrifting recently and you are the perfect person to follow for tips and a good time ! You rock ! ❤
you just make me so happy! thank you for sharing your sweet personality with us, not to mention your awesome creative ideas and content. i wouldn't be opposed to some flowy pants made out of that fabric!
I LOVE YOUR CINCINNATI TEE!! That’s where I am from and I have never seen it before. Great vid again btw
Oof weekly tornado drills would stress me to out. Enjoy your vacation! :3
The weekly tornado siren in my home town in GA was at noon on Saturdays, so you knew you'd really had a luxurious morning if you were still in bed when the "This. Is. A Test!" voice recording started going. xD
You said oh my god at the playing card trays and I also said oh my god, I'm obsessed with those
Picnic blanket. Or... fun overalls 😊
😂 darn, you are so funny and such a confidence, hats of smart young lady
Hahaha so fun I love this mic’d up craziness if you don’t talk to your self like this while thrifting you’re missing out! Please take mic thrifting more often xoxox
Honestly, this is my absolute favourite channel. Also, I'd kind of love to see you make a boiler suit out of that Disney fabric.
I am a retired English teacher and am impressed with her diction and light humor.
You are so fun!
2:45 those are my vibe 😩🤞🏻
Yes to the tornado drill! Ours is 3pm every Sunday 😫
i read the heart rate of a mouse, the multiple novel length panic! at the disco fanfiction, i'm here with you lmfao
Holy shit silent hill reference!!! Love your energy and the editing ❤
Love this week's video! I would love to see you try crochet, one of these days! (I always crochet while watching your videos, so it would really be full circle :) )
…I liked reading Kurt cobain x reader fanfics, I swear I was like 12 😭😭
Btw Kathleen ur videos are rad, they help me calm down so much, they make me feel so cozy
These are the kind of shenanigans I needed to see!
Also my vote for the Disney fabric is a tent dress, pinafore or simply a wonderful circle skirt. ❤
That Disney fabric would make an insane circle skirt!
That quilted bucket hat!?!!?!! In love with
OMG! Watching you makes me want to run not walk to the thrift stores. Your thrift stores seem so much bigger and full of treasures. I went thrifting yesterday hit about 7 stores and only 1 out of them all was the mother load. I think I bought 6 or 7 tops from that one. I had my teenage son with me and he found only 1 book at the same place. It was a good day. 😁
A tiered skirt would be so cool
Wow that thrift store is so full! The ones around me often have small selections in the clothes sections, I rarely find anything
That lamp in the thrift was BOMB! I would have totally brought it home and thrift-flipped the missing petals. I'm thinking some translucent tiles/colored glass cut to shape, or maybe even some layered tulle or thin fabric heavily starched into a panel to fit.
You can use book binding glue from the craft store to make a paper block. Just clamp the pad then smear on the side you want glued 😁. Also works to make your own watercolor blocks… at a fraction of the cost of the commercial block pads!
We don't live where there are tornados.
However, the town where I live has a vintage air raid siren left over from the Cuban missile crisis..... It goes off every Wednesday at noon. When I first moved here it scared the heck out of me!!!!
your energy is so vibrant!!
🥹💕🌈 thanks so much!!
