Not terrible for a first attempt, I think I'll be trying faux stained glass again sometime in the future since all it takes is acrylic paint and glue…and somewhere to hang it
Let me know if you'd like to see another video like this one!
This is the video I got the idea from:
• How to create faux sta...
First song: Bloom, Kori
• Kori - Bloom
Second song: Someone Else, Waking Dreams
• Waking Dreams - Someon...
I've been in a weird place lately. It's hard to tell if things have actually gotten worse, or if they just feel worse because they're more current, because I'm living it, not just remembering it. It's hard to make someone understand what it's like to feel stagnant and somehow panicked at the same time. The emotional equivalent of being stuck in a tarpit. Seeing the progress and accomplishments of everyone around me. I get to watch their back's they get farther and farther ahead, and I'm so scared it'll always be this way, that I'll always be stuck. If I am always going to be stuck, what's the point? Why am I even here? I get that meaning is something we have to pursue for ourselves, but if that's so, then my stagnation is entirely my own fault. That's terrifying, its probably true, but it still hurts.
I like making things. I want to make people happy, or at least less sad. I like doing this, creating videos (at least I think I do). Despite that, I'm not happy. Hell, I'm not even okay.
All of which is completely unrelated to the video, but given my experience, pretty much no one ever reads the descriptions. So I figure, if there's anywhere I can be unduly confessional, it's here.
Edit:
In regards to COPPA and the FTC,
While I’ve worked hard to make my content accessible and enjoyable to a broad audience, my content is not intended for young children. I regularly use potentially hazardous tools to create art including open flames, heavy gauge wire, sharp pins & sewing needles, razor blades, as well as a sewing machine & serger. These are tools no child should be using unsupervised, and by extension, children should not be watching these videos without supervision. I’m so happy when parents tell me my videos inspired them to create art with their kids. I think arts and crafts are a wonderful way to connect people of all ages, but not all arts and crafts are appropriate for young children, and should not be attempted without attentive supervision and guidance.
My videos are not intended for children. To those that would suggest that anything relating to fantasy, magic, fairies, and angels must be created for children, I’d point out the existence of shows like Carnival Row, Game of Thrones, Lost Girl, True Blood(Spoiler: series contains fairies), Good Omens, Lucifer, The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, and many more, are compelling evidence to the contrary.
Additionally, according to KZfaq analytics less than 5% of my audience falls in the 13-17 age range (the youngest age group KZfaq analytics provides data on) and the vast majority of my audience is over 20.
Also, a little update on me: I have been going through one of the worst periods of depression I’ve experienced in quite some time. I’ve barely been able to get out of bed for the past 3 months. My mental health has all but abandoned me, my physical health is suffering, and I don’t have the means or access to seek professional help. This has contributed to the lack of updates on all of my social media platforms. However, these developments with KZfaq, COPPA, and the FTC, have been less than encouraging and this very well could mean the end of my channel.
To anyone who’s enjoyed watching my videos, thank you. It’s nice to know I’ve brought people a bit of happiness.
Thank you for all of the kind and supportive comments! I hope you continue to find inspiration and happiness through creativity and art
