You’re so sweet. Thank you so much. I’m glad I was able to help you. I’m still pretty new to TH-cam. Or pretty new to actually uploading on a semi regular basis. We will get there eventually.
@@thesoutherncottage I did an amazing job she gave me a 100 as my summative grade, all thanks to your video I understand how to make homecoming mums now keep up your work follow your dreams they will all come true with the work you put to it
I simply love the way you explained everything! I’m looking forward in making my daughter’s mum for her Senior year thanks to your tips. This is very much appreciated for taking your time to teach others your beautiful skills.
Thank you thank you!!!! I watched and rewatched over and over, stopping, going back and making sure I got all the little things that would make this a success. My first mum adventure, my daughter’s sophomore yr, and it’s a hit! I wish i could include a pic!
That is awesome. If you want to send it to my business page on Facebook I would love to see it. And if you give me permission I will share it here in my community tab. Facebook.com/wallercountycatering
Thank you so much! This is my first year making one & I'm almost done, but I didn't know how to attach a trinket to the flower so I'm glad I found your video. You showed me what I needed plus gave me ideas for next year!
Super helpful seeing you do this from start to finish! This is my first year making mums. My husband is a football coach and I have a few to make for some players girlfriends! thank you!
Here I am again watching 👀 your video.. every year 😆 and every time I Watched 👀 I learned something new.. finally doing my 2 daughter's first mum 🥰 she's so excited!! 💓
I actually like the voiceovers because you know exactly what to say and you're not like fumbling over words and I like the fact that you were laughing at yourself I learned a lot I'm going to be honest I became a new subby tonight and I laughed when you started laughing at yourself measuring and putting it down measuring then putting it down I could not stop laughing cuz I was like that stuff I'd be doing by myself in my room in my little crafting space and I'm just like your dodo brain you already did something and why are you redoing it I love it it's very personal these are really good videos like there's nothing wrong with you talking over and doing your Facebook live I just want you to understand that it's not about how the video is it doesn't have to be fancy it's about what you're trying to convey so if you're teaching me something visually that's all I really need to see is you doing it you know if you want to do a talk show or you want to do something else and that front face stuff it's really hard to see sometimes so this overhead and the voice over is perfect if it wasn't for you constantly telling us that you were doing a Facebook live we would have just thought you was watching something on TV until we noticed that was actually you because there's slight delay so it doesn't seem like you're actually doing something live it just looks like you're watching another video and if you didn't mention it to us we would never know
Well thank you for that. I’m pretty new at this still even though I’ve had this channel up for a year or more. Still trying to see on my way. I’m glad that you’re getting something from it no matter what.
I had so much fun watching you make this mum! I love seeing other people’s techniques. Wanna guess how many times I said “yep, spirit animal!!” ? lol 😂 It looks like your subs have grown!!!!
I know this is an older video, but I live in TX also and would love to know where you found the Texas and star ribbon at. I found you the other day and keep watching all your videos and now that I know you’re in TX I will watch all the time.
Do you try to stick with all gold or all silver trinkets when you purchase them? Do you have your customers choose silver or gold, or how do you decided when to use which?
I choose mostly silver. That’s what everybody likes in my area. I do have some gold in case anybody wants them. I had a senior mum this past year That wanted white, silver, and gold. I’m not really a gold fan but it actually turned out really pretty
LoL silly goose! I didn't notice a lot of things until u pointed it out, from FB live to ur belly! this is easy to follow vid. 😊u seem so relatable, gf.
I wish there was a one size fits all on these, but there’s not. You can make them any size or shape you want. That’s up to you and the customer or the person that you’re making it for. I don’t have set sizes for specific grade levels. I do make the ribbons for my garters between 12 and 15 inches long. I find that length is perfect.
Multiple places. monsterspirit.com, The Sale Place, and from a wholesaler. Some ribbons come from Sam’s, hobby lobby, Michael’s, Walmart, or dollar tree
@@thesoutherncottage I wanted to make several of the braids and was looking for the Satin Acetate ribbon. Is that even the right one? Anyway, looking for the 1/2" to 3/4" width. This will be for next year, my daughters homecoming is this Friday. So I will be better prepared for the next one. ;)
th-cam.com/video/ybuAQ_YqO4A/w-d-xo.html Here’s a link to one of my videos that gives you a lot of places to buy mum supplies! I guess it mostly depends on your area and if you’re able to drive to some of these places
As a person who uses hot glue like for everything I decided to go to Dollar tree and follow TH-cam Crafters suggestion of getting those little silicone finger protectors thought I was being very snazzy and fancy and I think I burned my hand more with it because I kept not wanting to use those fingers so I understand cuz it mentally makes you think you got a Band-Aid on and you don't want to hurt those fingers because they remind you of those finger band days or finger covers they give you if you work in food service we call them something else but I'm going to keep it PC LOL
I got it from monsterspirit.com. When you go to that website look over on the left-hand side and you’ll see staplers close to the bottom. Click on that and they are the only ones they carry.
It's me again...I have a question...actually 2 😆 Are you cutting the ribbon 12 inches & is the round back that you put the ribbon on bigger than the one you put the flower on 😃 😊 I'm going in.. please send me great MUM VIBES 😆 🤣 I'VE NEVER MADE ON SO I'M FEELING A BIT ANXIOUS...I'm assuming this is a normal feeling 😅 FIND A HAPPY PLACE Anna. My granddaughter will be singing the National Anthem and placed 1st CHAIR out of 47 girls in her Region. I'm sooo proud of her...she deserves a BEA-U-TI-FUL MUM LIKE THE ONE YOU MAKE. Her school is a 6A school...VERY LARGE HIGH SCHOOL. Are you on TikTok or Facebook? Because I would love being able to tag you with my final project. You have truly inspired me to make her the best mum I can possibly make her ❤️ 🌹
It’s been a while but I believe that is a medium mum so I think it’s going to be at 18 or 20 inches on the skirt. All of the backers are exactly the same size. So if you use a 5 inch backer for the head, then you use a 5 inch backer for the skirt and a 5 inch clean backer at the end. I have facebook!! Http://facebook.com/WallerCountycatering

Lol. Do you know how long I’ve been waiting for this comment? I was like is she ever going to watch this video and tell me she did LOL.
And yes my subs have grown. It’s exciting. And thanks to you
@@thesoutherncottage 🥰😂😍
@@thesoutherncottage aww I hope ive helped get you some of those! I need to do another post featuring this vid
I know this is an older video, but I live in TX also and would love to know where you found the Texas and star ribbon at. I found you the other day and keep watching all your videos and now that I know you’re in TX I will watch all the time.
Welcome! I’ve had that ribbon for so long I could not even think of where it may have come from. If I remember I’ll definitely share.
❤❤❤
Can you tell me where on harwin did you get some of your mum supplies.
Never thought about the pipe cleaner on that trinket
Hi Connie !! I love it !! I'm going to subscribe from my other channel too!!
Thank you ma’am
Where do you get the clear ribbon with foil print?
Do you try to stick with all gold or all silver trinkets when you purchase them? Do you have your customers choose silver or gold, or how do you decided when to use which?
I choose mostly silver. That’s what everybody likes in my area. I do have some gold in case anybody wants them. I had a senior mum this past year That wanted white, silver, and gold. I’m not really a gold fan but it actually turned out really pretty
How long to you cut the ribbon?
❤😊❤
What are you using for the white circles where ur putting the ribbons and staples
Those are backers. You can make your own out of posterboard
How long is the wide green ribbon you apply first?
I think it’s 2.5.
What size of ribbons do you start with? Great looking mum!
This one was from a while back. I think they’re 2 1/2 inches for the back layer.
Replay ❤
LoL silly goose! I didn't notice a lot of things until u pointed it out, from FB live to ur belly! this is easy to follow vid. 😊u seem so relatable, gf.
Lol. Yeah, my belly gets cameos in pretty much all of my videos. I’m glad you’re here!!
lol ur funny...🥰 u do beautiful work, learning a lot here!
Thank you so much
Is there somewhere I can find what size a freshman mum is and what size a senior mum is so I know how long to cut the ribbons. And the garters.
I wish there was a one size fits all on these, but there’s not. You can make them any size or shape you want. That’s up to you and the customer or the person that you’re making it for. I don’t have set sizes for specific grade levels. I do make the ribbons for my garters between 12 and 15 inches long. I find that length is perfect.
What arevthe sizes of the ribbons you used and the backers?
I would have to go back and watch, but most of my points are 6 inches fold it over and stapled
Where do you get the ribbon and mums
Multiple places. monsterspirit.com, The Sale Place, and from a wholesaler. Some ribbons come from Sam’s, hobby lobby, Michael’s, Walmart, or dollar tree
Where do you buy your ribbon from? I have looked at Hobby Lobby, Michaels and various places online and not finding what I need.
I buy from all over the place. Is there a specific one you’re looking for that I can help with?

I’ve worked in food service all of my life so I know exactly what you’re talking about😂
Where did you get your stapler?
I got it from monsterspirit.com. When you go to that website look over on the left-hand side and you’ll see staplers close to the bottom. Click on that and they are the only ones they carry.
What part of Texas? This wouldn’t happen to be a Panthers mum would it?
I am in Hempstead. This is a bobcat mum!
What kind of ribbon do you use
Acetate ribbon!
Where do you get your ribbon?
All over the place. I have a video titled where to buy mum supplies if you want to check that out
How do you safety pin the mum?
I run it through the loop that I attached to the clean backer
How would you make a mum for a cheer bag zipper pull
I’m not sure. I’ve never made one. But I do make hardware that you can buy to attach them. Maybe use acrylics and ribbon instead of a mum
It's me again...I have a question...actually 2 😆 Are you cutting the ribbon 12 inches & is the round back that you put the ribbon on bigger than the one you put the flower on 😃 😊 I'm going in.. please send me great MUM VIBES 😆 🤣 I'VE NEVER MADE ON SO I'M FEELING A BIT ANXIOUS...I'm assuming this is a normal feeling 😅 FIND A HAPPY PLACE Anna.
