[whimsicalrose824]

its freaken hard!!!!!!!

[Shinidias]

great video, clear cut instructions, no unnecessary talking straight to the point...loved it. Thank you and you are very inspirational!

[Althesuperfish]

You go too quickly for any beginner to follow the steps.

[happybirdlover]

i think u should have your own tv show

[RickeyeaSingleton]

Awesome!!!!! your tutorials are great!

[lp4tiempo]

My mom and I tried. We failed. -_____-"

[bubbblycupcakes]

the 3D rose actually looks like something i can do! so excited! :D

[nadiou13]

i can't wait to make flowers!!!! :D

(i think my parents are still looking for their old clothes.... i still can't tell them they became.... fabric!!!! :P)

[TheMouseSaysMoo]

I feel really stupid xD I wanted to do this so I went to my room to get my sewing stuff but on the way there I realized I left the stove on and I freaked out so The first thing I did was grab the metal handle of the pot (I'm just dumb like that) and now I can't sew cause of this giant burn lol!

[selgomezfan101101]

@lola1796 when you fold it, fold it to the back not frontwards. and roll ^_^

[paprluvr]

Sooooo gorgeous!! Thanks so much for sharing your talent.

Tere

[TheAlix400]

there is so much to do so many steps and need too much patience

not for me sadly then

[PerfectPride]

These were all fairly simple but really pretty. =3

[22teenagedream]

yes! im done wit the lollipop flower :D WAT!!?? ITS THE SECOND VIDEO ALREADY? why am i slow??

[HelenJ07]

i cant do the flat rose. it never comes out flat. I don't know what i am doing wrong :(

[kassachxd]

where did you learn all these? did you learn it in school or what?

[sonniluvsu]

on da flat rose, my bottom flat rose has a point on da bottom, how do i make it flat?

♥

[clutzberries]

@sonniluvsu when you sew the flower at the bottom so that it doesnt unravel, you fold the point to one side and then sew it on top of the folded point so that its flat... hope this helps!

[TheCreativeJenny]

Love this flowers <3

[TheCreativeJenny]

Love <3

[2ooma]

I have a question.... did you go to some kind of a sewing school to learn all about these stuff or you just learned the basics???

[Natzuvi]

THANKS you're amazing

[kitihirosaki]

Do you find that the heavier shears are easier to work with? I have the ones that are called fabric shears but are just glorified paper scissors. Do you feel that there is any difference?

[fefeliciousita]

i can't make the flat rose:(( but.. great video !

[KrystabelKok]

When I made the flat rose, it ended up as a really TALL rose,. But now I got it ;D

[baybaylv1035]

All the flowers are amazingg!!! -3 you can also use the last flower as a hair scrunchiee (:

[RaWrZzZz]

Flat rose makes no sense. The back folds don't have a clear folding point or structure. It seems completely random.

[CharmedClover]

you make it look so easy!! you're a genius ;D

[katiebw22]

Great tutorial! You make it easy to follow and pack a lot of information into short videos. More please!

[emclau2955]

:) I used a gold satin ribbon about an inch wide and made a small flat rose. Since it was so small, I used my thumb to flatten the center of the bloom as I rotated the ribbon. So cute!!! Thanks. <3

[DontPlayWithMyNAME]

i can't make the flat rose :/

[luckyduck7point5]

How cute! you're like AMAZING! I'll have to try these sometime!

[BeyondBracelets]

3:47 That has to be the cutest fabric I have ever seen.

[GongerFreak]

amazing!

[linlinthepooh]

DDD: my flat rose isnt coming out flat

its really tall? i cant explain!! what am i doing wrong??

[ThePjenni]

@linlinthepooh Same here! o.o

[dancingpixie22]

My flat rose isn't coming out right, any other suggestions :( ?

[badliberiangirl89]

If you don't have enough money for fabric, can you use old clothes?

[belieber4evrnalways]

@badliberiangirl89 yes, it just has to be the required measurements!(:

[badliberiangirl89]

@belieber4evrnalways

Thanks for letting me know :)

[PTuinman]

does the strip of fabric have to be 2 inches wide?

[maechan004]

For these roses can we use a silk satin kind of fabric? Will it turn out okay? I'm kind of scared to waste fabric because it is expensive here and my mother was nice enough to buy me some. Thanks.

[cloudyang92]

Thank you for sharing. I fell in love with ur rose craft.

[sweetpuppy120489]

I love these flower so much...You actually make it easier to see and easier to understand....I have instructions for these...but still not get the idea of how to do them....Love ur talent so much

[bluerose600]

can someone re-explain the flat rose. please. i having a having very hard time with it.  >_<

[JEluvs2laugh]

i made the 3-D one out of paper... O.O it was cool

[DoRk843]

i like the kazhashi flower (or how ever you spell it :) but i alwaysmess up on the folding.. haha but you are so very creative i could fall in love with you.. (haha just kidding :) but you are very amazing!!

[MelissaxxMinakoxxLee]

I don't get the flat rose!

[TillxLoved]

For those asking about how to fold for the flat rose:

I noticed that every time she folds it back, she sticks her thumb behind and use that as a guide for folding. I tried it that way and I sort of got the fold she was showing us.

[luckyyou8888]

beautiful :D

[amanda52reid]

awesome x

[amanda52reid]

awesome

[isachab14]

ugh... omg.. i freakin' love you!! this is awesome..now we can do this for school and look fashion-able, with out paying the price(;

[xPandaaaaa]

i really love the 3-d rose its so nice

[iTzDoanx3]

can we just use any kind of fabric for the flat rose?

[GreyBillie]

Wow. I don't know if I missed something but my flat rose don't want to be flat.

[nothing2but7feelings]

i really enjoyed doing this

[Apollobaby446]

[JEluvs2laugh]

[JEluvs2laugh]

[duhidaly]

i love the video; but the music is so boring! :(

[srizualemgr]

aww <3 d kinzashi flower

[sweetx3escape]

flat rose is harddd :[

[TheShrekgirl]

I mostly like your video's I just find the backround elevator music realy anoying!

hope you change it :D

[sweetx3escape]

these are actually really hard to make :[ i wish it was shown at another angle hhaha.

[icecreamlover22]

Help please! For the flat rose I got up to 47seconds, but the part I don't get is the folding back part. How do you twist/fold it to the back? My rose looks like a long stick. ):

[MegaSunter]

@icecreamlover22 mine too! 

[MrZebraPants]

hey, i love ur tutorial, i am going to put up a tutorial of how to make 3d roses like the blue ones in the picture at 1:59 (as in more triangular) please visit

[Fl4dd3rm0uz]

I don't get the start of the flat rose. Mine always becomes a stick... a nice spiral stick, of course, but not a flat rose ^.^

[boerketje]

OMG, I watched one video and I'm already addicted!

[supersarah454]

my flat roses dont seem so flat, but more of a stick

[riechanster]

@supersarah454 mine either :s

[sweetx3escape]

@supersarah454 mines too D:

[Kristina909]

HELP! with the 3D rose, everytime i get to the end and pull the left over fabric through, i pull and it just unravels the whole flower, and also with the very first fold, how you leave some fabric hanging over it's just like there....what am i doing wrong?! :(

[SecretLifeOfaBioNerd]

@Kristina909 oh don't pull it all the way, it will on ravel fast..and hold onto it too!!! and I don't understand the second question >_<"

[Kawaiiduck]

@Kristina909 the little bit that is left over from the beginning, pull it through the center along with the end when you put through.

[skittles0567]

@Kristina909 try sewing the left over fabric on the bottom to the little part you pull through from the top while also sewing it to the base of the square if that makes sense. it should help

[Vampkiki]

@Kristina909 one- make sure your fabric is an actual rectangle..this will help alot..two- after making the first trianglular shape, you then fold the next section to nearly match up with the bottom portion of the triangle..this will leave very little tab to have to deal with...three- after roatting the upper portions of the flower, stich the tab together with the piece that was pulled through along with some of the layers to secure the whole flower.....hope this helps

[azncutiesinger]

these videos were perfect for me!! i've seen some flower hair clips that are so cute, but i didn't want to spend the money on them! now i can try my own so easily :] thanks so much

[ROZG1]

is it safe to wash the flat rose? how do we keep it safe?

[SlimLady1997]

i love the fabric from the third flower

[shimizuspear101]

oi i love making kanzashi!! and i love the little button like ones from the frist part

[smellyannn]

[129815]

i feel stupid for typing this, but for the kinzashi flowers... can the fabric squares can be any size?

[shimizuspear101]

I like that you split part 2 and part 1 evenly, without one tutorial spilling from one part to the other.

Also, thanks for all the different ideas you give us, and the informative, straightforward way you say.

(I sound a bit like I'm fawning over you, but I assure you the gratitude is completely genuine.)

[SecretLifeOfaBioNerd]
