Don't be afraid to try things. Even if it doesn't turn out, you'll still learn new skills along the way. Before you know it, you'll be surprising yourself at what you are capable of :)
hence the "little" part :P But joking aside, you don't know until you try. The "I like to challenge myself" motto works wonders for developing skills. Certainly compared to the "I'm convinced I can't do any of this and rather swoon at endless TH-cam videos that prove it can be done" philosophy. One which I, sad to admit, also hold to too many times. The few times I didn't, I've actually brought a tear to my ówn eye out of accomplishment and much better than expected results.
My jaw dropped a few inches closer to the floor every two minutes. "I love this part of any project because I get to sit down and relax," she says as she carves individual scales onto her custom wooden snakes ! ! ! ! ! Someone give this person a gd medal.
I am so blown away by the woodwork! Inspiration! I love art nouveau stuff but it's impossible to find or crazy expensive, i never considered making my own. I might have to use a CNC router for detailed carving because she makes that look easy...
yes there is ... the same woman in pink jeans taking a $100 beater couch and spending a few hundred dollars to make a couch worth several thousand dollars ;)
Absolutely fascinating to watch the creative process!!! Who'd have "thunk" that Grandma's pullout sleeper sofa could've transformed into such an elegant piece of furniture that looks completely vintage with a macabre twist?!?!?
Totally agree. I love The Henson Company, but having dead animals and monsters with cheesy writing was all just unfunny and unnecessary. This format is so so so much better. I’m glad she is continuing on here-her work is incredible!
Don't misunderstand, I watched the show through twice, it was so unique. But that was down to Christine, I think Netflix lost a gem in her. She doesn't need sidekicks (except maybe Dita) she's hilarious all on her own, I laughed so much at the camera man bit! I think this series is going to be incredible
When she was done upholstering i was like wow! Well done! but then she started with the wood accents and at that point my jaw dropped. Wtf how are you so multi-talented?
Right, how is she so super talented like what brought it all together? How did she learn it all? How did she know she wanted to be skilled at everything? So many talents and have so many amazing skills? Like was she just born with it or is it witchcraft lol. I have never meant someone like her! Like they don't exist out here in the real world! Or maybe just in my world?
@@irenecantu5436 It's your world haha I know plenty of people that have multiple talents and I come from a family of them. Painting, sewing, baking, cooking, drawing, sculpting, crocheting, knitting, furniture, building, farming, gardening, you name it. Go explore!
Dear TH-cam algorithm writers: thank you for having this woman land in my feed. Christine lives in the home of my teenage fantasies. My inner baby goth is so happy right now. 🕷
So glad you're back!!! Possibly controversial opinion here, but this is so much better than your Netflix show. I miss all your puppet friends but this format feels more genuine and more intimate. Its great to see your gorgeous face and crafts without the strange gloss of commercialized TV production. Also - i feel like now you can get to do whatever you want without formatting it to some narrative. Edit: Also your real pets are so wonderful!!!!
@@ALYSSAISTHEBESTWOO Honestly the puppets are the reason I didn't watch it. Cringey is exactly how I felt about a puppet-based show haha. But I love these videos! Goth/Vintage Martha Stewart is the kind of content I am here for!
Personally I thought the use of puppets was great, it was original, strange and charming. The Rose puppet especially made me laugh out loud many times.
I agree! I watched a few episodes of the Netflix show and this TH-cam channel is way better! It may be because you have complete and creative control. I’m not sure, but I love this channel and I wish you all the best!
A true renaissance woman. I was entranced watching her dremel the individual scales into the serpent wood accents. Gives me chills to watch her work come to life. Way an exceptional artist. Would die to be her "caged cameraman" I'm sure she feeds him?
This. Is. Insaaaaane! Makes me want to take up woodworking, buy a sewing machine, and go thrifting immediately. All the crafty things. You're incredibly talented!
@@KellyBeth yeah, The Curious Creations of Christine McConnell or something like that. It's short, and you will want more, but it's amazing. It's all baking stuff too
What I like, about watching your videos, is that you show many women that have probably never held a power tool, that a woman can do it too! As someone who was a construction worker, watching you use the Dewalt just makes me miss it so much!
Omg yay!!! You're back!!! This video totally made my night. Fell in love with your aesthetic through your Netflix series & was heartbroken when they cancelled it. So glad to see new content from you. One video a month is sadly not enough for us die hard fans. Who do we need to talk to in order to have your content at least once a week???
Straight up, that looked like a prop right off a Tim Burton film. Incredible work. I hope you sent a picture to the original owner after you finished, that would have blown their mind. Oh, yeah, liked and subbed.
As much as I loved the Netflix series, I gotta say that I'm really loving Christine's series here! There's something about watching her take on these projects in her casual clothes, often working in socks and having her pets in the background that makes me feel the love and passion she has for her craft. Keep up the good work! I look forward to watching all your videos!
She seriously needs to come out with her own clothing line! I love love love her style! It’s like a sexy modern vintage style! She is so beautiful 😍 I would totally buy everything in her line! 🙏🏼 please make it happen!!!
Having lived through the Stepford Wives decades and say, m'eh , but I see the attraction for the younger generations. I rocked the 20's to the 40's when I was in my youth. There was no goth back then. hahaha
There’s a retired line of very romantic, frilly clothing that used to be carried at malls designed by Jessica McClintock (do Scottish women just know more about romantic clothing?). It was called Gunne Sax. They were gorgeous and very similar to the style Christine favors, and you can still find them in vintage clothing stores, but be prepared to pay dearly - a lot of modern women have fallen in love with them, too. A note of interest: Hillary Clinton wore a Gunne Sax dress for her wedding.
Three years later am seeing this.... They do say good things come to those who wait and by god it was worth the wait ❤️. Absolutely exquisite loved everything about it ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I am SO excited for this series! Not to sound like a creep, but I really cannot get enough Christine McConnell in my life! If we aren’t getting a new season of The Curious Creations, this is a great consolation prize!🖤🖤🖤
Raise your hand if you were happy to see the snakes covered after it was converted into the bed? I was watching , admiring but in the back of my brain I was thinking, I wouldn't sleep in a guest bed with two snakes about to strike. Remarkable craftsmanship and imagination ...thank you TH-cam for giving me this recommendation.
I so loved the Netflix show and I really think they made a mistake not renewing it. I’m so excited to watch your spooky craftiness again. Anyone else miss the raccoon??
Everything about Christine is downright amazing, but my favorite thing is when her voice breaks just a tiny bit. It's soooo cute! She just seems cool, talented, quirky and yet still down-to-earth, so I think she's a great role model for all us spooky types. She proves you don't have to wear all black or be mean to be a darkly whimsical icon! Even though I liked the puppets and the costumes on Netflix, I think she really shines brightest as the only star of the show. So glad to see our favorite artist on youtube!
I really hope she works on people's houses one day and redecorates everything!!! I would definitely call her. She is so so so talented. Just pure gothic art
OUR DIY QUEEN IS BACK!!! When I heard your Netflix show didn't get renewed my heart broke. I'm so so so happy to see you're taking matters into your own hands!
Honestly, I think Netflix wouldn't have put forth this kind of content. They had her being more of a Gothic Martha Stewart. But here, she can actually show her talents and abilities. This video is what makes TH-cam worthy of watching. I'm here for it and I will stay for it! 💜
Congrats on the web series! It's great that you took the lead on producing your own video content. I love that you didn't just reupholster the couch; you completely transformed it. The addition of the wooden snake elements are amazing!
I lost my grandmother a week or to ago and she always had the creepy aesthetic in her everyday life and household, between stuffed crows and or a cartoonish witch stocking. Finding your show and now channel makes me happy and remind me of her thank you so much.
This is a marvelous project! I'm so delighted that there is a new avenue to enjoy your works on a regular basis. That fact the Curious Creations wasn't renewed was an absolute travesty.
Talent! I don't think I'll have any business saying "I don't need a man" until I've acquired even half the skills Christine has under her handcrafted tool belt
Honestly, I like this format much better than the Netflix series. I wasn't interested in silly story lines with puppets. I just want to see how Ms. McConnell accomplishes her amazing projects.
I thought the netflix show was fun but I ultimatley agree that this is better. Its way more focus on the actual craft and its cool to see what I assume is her house. I think she kept some of that whimsy with her intro, her adorable pets and the gag about camera man. If she can keep a sprinkeling of that this will be the best of both worlds.
I have to say the Jim Henson puppets were cute, but the storyline did have me cringeing more than once. It was kind of predictable and too kiddy for adults. I think her talent to create is the real star and she doesn't need the cheesy storylines and puppets to keep people entertained.
I loved that the Netflix show had storylines, but it was kind of cringey sometimes, especially the puppets' banter, it did feel like humour directed mostly to kids. I enjoyed when she had guests, I think she could incorporate that aspect into the TH-cam series, in a less scripted way.
I’m literally sitting here wondering how in my years studying fashion and following macabre and DIY, I HAVE NEVER COME ACROSS YOU BEFORE?! Mesmerising, articulate and incredibly creative and talented 💕
You know when you watch a DIY and think you may be able to do that? Yeah that never happens when i watch you. The longer i watched the more I'm convinced that you have some special powers or something. Your talent is unfathomable and you continuously take my breath away. I'm in awe of you. you're just magnificent
Christine you should add ads on your videos! So that way people like me who can't afford to support you on patreon can help you still! Love your creations! 💓 thank you for sharing your amazing works with us!
My daughter and I love all her projects. So disappointing Netflix didn’t have the brains to give her another season but I’m so happy to see her continuing here. 🖤
Honestly, I really love her Netflix series and it's a shame that it's cancelled. But I'm glad that her channel exists. Everything she does is pure magic.
Watching this I was like "She talented and she can reupholster in stylish flats. She is amazing. Couch looks great!" She starts adding wooden carved snakes to the edges. "Shes a Witch! No one can be that good!!!" I am so glad I found your channel. You have a home esthetic that I love. Reminds me of the home from Sabrina.
Christine is the perfect example of the fact that you don't have to "look goth" or align with "traditional goth look" to be goth, and to be spook. She wears gorgeous bright vintage clothing, and still has major spook cred 😍🖤🖤🖤🖤
Thank you for coming back to us! I was so upset when The show got cancelled. This turned out beautifully and the pillows were to die for. Gotta make the cameraman’s cage a lot stronger!!!
I wish Netflix would have continued the series . I'm from Germany and I enjoy your crafty ideas . I'm so happy I found this Channel. I cosplay and enjoying watching your videos while working on my own projects . :) Thanks and please continue:)
Wow! You always take things to the next level and have me rethinking how far I can challenge myself. I did an awful job of reupholstering a chair many years ago. Now I want to try again, this time with hand-carved details. Amazing! Can't wait to see what's next! 😁💕🧵✂️📍🔍
“Upholstery is a little outside of my comfort zone” -proceeds to make the most beautiful couch I’ve ever seen

Don't be afraid to try things. Even if it doesn't turn out, you'll still learn new skills along the way. Before you know it, you'll be surprising yourself at what you are capable of :)
this made me LOL. Cause IKR.
hence the "little" part :P
But joking aside, you don't know until you try. The "I like to challenge myself" motto works wonders for developing skills. Certainly compared to the "I'm convinced I can't do any of this and rather swoon at endless TH-cam videos that prove it can be done" philosophy.
One which I, sad to admit, also hold to too many times. The few times I didn't, I've actually brought a tear to my ówn eye out of accomplishment and much better than expected results.
Also note she said the color didn't work with the room 😂 completely redoes the whole thing into the most amazing couch
You're like the love child of Morticia Addams and Martha Stewart ❤
I literally JUST said this to my friend!
Never heard a better comparison, she's so fantastic!
I was thinking Morticia Addams and the New Yankee Workshop myself. 🤭
This is accurate.
I came here to say this
She’s so mesmerizing to watch ❤️ NETFLIX REALLY FUCKED UP by not renewing her series. BIG MISTAKE. BIG. HUGE! - Vivian Ward aka Julia Roberts
Oscar Parrilla agreed. It was original and interesting and a lot of people watched it. I loved it.
Agreed
TOTALLY AGREE!!!
BIG mistake! HUGE!
Oscar Parrilla i- i was waiting for it on Netflix.. i loved it! So it‘ll never come back to Netflix?
She's a cross between Tim Burton and Martha Stewart and I'm totally here for it
Tim Burton and Martha Stewart had a baby...Christine McConnell
and Snow White! LOL!
if morticia addams and martha stewarts had a love child.
How perfectly apt!
With a touch of Elvira
My jaw dropped a few inches closer to the floor every two minutes. "I love this part of any project because I get to sit down and relax," she says as she carves individual scales onto her custom wooden snakes ! ! ! ! ! Someone give this person a gd medal.

I am so blown away by the woodwork! Inspiration! I love art nouveau stuff but it's impossible to find or crazy expensive, i never considered making my own. I might have to use a CNC router for detailed carving because she makes that look easy...
theres nothing more powerful and badass than a woman in pink jeans doing the impossible with a jigsaw in her hands what a QUEEN
Yes! *bows down*
yes there is ... the same woman in pink jeans taking a $100 beater couch and spending a few hundred dollars to make a couch worth several thousand dollars ;)
Yep. I wish more women were like this.
not bad a$$, much class. bad a$$ is on the way out. and much class is on the way in.
Christine McConnell makes me want to DIY my entire house from cellar to steeple. Not that my house has a steeple, but I'd friggin make one.
I'm sure Christine could show you how to make a steeple

Ahhh this is why I want to own a house already :(
“Out of your comfort zone” says the woman who built a sofa like she’s been doing it her whole life. The woodwork detail is incredible!!
Absolutely fascinating to watch the creative process!!! Who'd have "thunk" that Grandma's pullout sleeper sofa could've transformed into such an elegant piece of furniture that looks completely vintage with a macabre twist?!?!?
AND ITS A PULLOUT! it’s like finding the perfect dress & realizing it has pockets
I think this is better than your Netflix show. Just show-casing your talents and enjoying the artistry without distractions
DodoSzabo totally agree!! I would have loved the Netflix show more without all the nonsense!
AGREED!! I wasn't into the raccoon/ skunk bit ... or the porn style acting
100% if this is what the Netflix show was, I would have watched it more than once. As it was, I couldn't even make it all the way through the series.
Totally agree. I love The Henson Company, but having dead animals and monsters with cheesy writing was all just unfunny and unnecessary. This format is so so so much better. I’m glad she is continuing on here-her work is incredible!

You are the goth Martha Stewart. Any chance you would undertake a creepy fairy garden?!
Oh yes! Please i would love to see that too
Or a Poison Garden. One of my future projects, actually.
YES a creepy fairy garden with homemade figurines and houses
I love this idea 💜

Nooooo it wasn’t renewed? :(

How are you so good at EVERYTHING?! Sewing, woodworking, sketching & carving. You're a goddess!
Just being a woman. Not being limited by a gender definition.
The artistry of everything she does is absolutely incredible
Can we just appreciate for a second what a genius Christine is?! Everything she makes is so stunning!
All while wearing a cashmere sweater and ballet flats no less!!!
You could run the most amazing bed and breakfast!! I'm always in awe at the creations you bring to life.
Judith Young my thoughts exactly!
A B&B where you learn to do amazing house and baking ideas!? EEEE!!!
@@p.echegaray2049 I would so go to that B&B

A true renaissance woman. I was entranced watching her dremel the individual scales into the serpent wood accents. Gives me chills to watch her work come to life. Way an exceptional artist. Would die to be her "caged cameraman" I'm sure she feeds him?
This. Is. Insaaaaane! Makes me want to take up woodworking, buy a sewing machine, and go thrifting immediately. All the crafty things. You're incredibly talented!
I would, literally, watch this woman eat a bowl of cereal and still be mesmerized by her....
yes she is quite beautiful ... she has only one problem though ..... she is NOT single ;)
I swear I died and then I heard your voice telling me to bring myself back and watch your video first. My life has meaning again.
I am so excited to see you're still making content after Netflix let us all down by not picking up a second season. You're inspirational.
wait WHAT? I just discovered her channel and this is the first video I've seen. There was a series on Netflix?
@@KellyBeth yeah, The Curious Creations of Christine McConnell or something like that. It's short, and you will want more, but it's amazing. It's all baking stuff too
She was making content before the show too
Just checked it out and didn't even finished the first episode. Her TH-cam though is amazing.
What I like, about watching your videos, is that you show many women that have probably never held a power tool, that a woman can do it too! As someone who was a construction worker, watching you use the Dewalt just makes me miss it so much!

She's insanely talented.

She's magic. Anything that she touches she just turns it into a piece of art. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Did I seriously just watch you basically build a couch? Beautiful and talented beyond belief...is there anything you can't do?
The talent and skill on display here is RIDICULOUS
Omfg! I want her to do my entire home. This is the coolest house I have ever seen! My black heart swells!
We need to have more women like you to be stinkin' famous!
My daughter and I love all her projects. So disappointing Netflix didn’t have the brains to give her another season but I’m so happy to see her continuing here. 🖤
How could Netflix let go of such rare talent?!?!? I am so mesmerised by everything she does.
I wish Netflix would bring you back, you are amazing!!! you are the woman I wanted to be
Honestly, I really love her Netflix series and it's a shame that it's cancelled. But I'm glad that her channel exists. Everything she does is pure magic.
I’m so inspired!! I can’t wait to reupholster the hand me down chair in my bedroom now!
You should post the process online somewhere!
Kit Pot I probably will!
She makes it look easy. Sooooo talented!!
I want to take on my husband's hideous orange recliner.
Geekmom D Yeah! Do it!
Watching this I was like "She talented and she can reupholster in stylish flats. She is amazing. Couch looks great!" She starts adding wooden carved snakes to the edges. "Shes a Witch! No one can be that good!!!" I am so glad I found your channel. You have a home esthetic that I love. Reminds me of the home from Sabrina.
Christine is the perfect example of the fact that you don't have to "look goth" or align with "traditional goth look" to be goth, and to be spook. She wears gorgeous bright vintage clothing, and still has major spook cred 😍🖤🖤🖤🖤
Agree and why I love her soooooo much 🖤🥰🖤
I swear, I don't think she's human! She is incredible!
Beautiful.
I'm a huge fan of green & purple.
Thank you for coming back to us! I was so upset when The show got cancelled. This turned out beautifully and the pillows were to die for. Gotta make the cameraman’s cage a lot stronger!!!
McConnell has extraordinary talent as a craftsperson! It is rare to find such ingenuity and a flare for unconventional aesthetics.
This is the best TH-cam video. Netflix missed out on renewing.
I wish Netflix would have continued the series .
I'm from Germany and I enjoy your crafty ideas .
I'm so happy I found this Channel.
I cosplay and enjoying watching your videos while working on my own projects .
:) Thanks and please continue:)
AND SHE CAN RE UPHOLSTER A COUCH!!?? AND WORK THE HEAVY MACHINERY?? She is amazing with all her many talents 🥰 Why couldn’t I have just 1? 😣
I love her aesthetic. The perfect combo of vintage and spooky. This is so inspiring to watch. Now I’m eyeing my couch
Wow! You always take things to the next level and have me rethinking how far I can challenge myself. I did an awful job of reupholstering a chair many years ago. Now I want to try again, this time with hand-carved details. Amazing! Can't wait to see what's next! 😁💕🧵✂️📍🔍
This is possibly the coolest thing I have ever seen on TH-cam.
I dont think i've ever loved a couch so much.
I am so impressed!!! That sofa is to die for!! Fantastic work. 🎃
