The colours are stunning, especially that velvet. The finished look is absolutely gorgeous
Disco Pickle
The new song is so good! I believe the captive is responsible for the incredible music in your videos? He has outdone himself
Andie C
Is that a new title card? Love it!
Lauren
This is awesome - though, what do you do to clean them? 😅
Ashley Shelden
Loved this vid. Song at the end was giving Victorian gin hall in the best way
Ms. Peabody
It’s still that large guest room. Note the owl above the headboard, the side tables, bedside rugs… lighting is everything!
Marti Kennedy
Holy Moly Christine. These are amazing. <3
Christine McConnell
Yes! That episode is coming this month :))
Angell Cloxen
I love the video and not to take away from yours and the captives hard work, I have to say the very end was the cherry on top ! 8)
Darby Ferguson
Did you do the top part of the bed as well yourself?
Mina Murray
Gorgeous draperies! You've inspired me to make new draperies for my bed. We've been re-decorating the bedroom and I could use a touch more opulence that the bed curtains I currently have.

You could use a walking foot on your machine , also you can get basting tape, it’s perfect for funny fabrics that move, I love making home sewing projects, I’m making a long hooded cape at the moment

Sleeping in that bed must be like being wrapped up in a warm blanket!! Gothic/Victorian DREAMS!!!

Oh, sewing velvet + walking foot for your machine. Keeps everything from shifting around. Minimizes those “But, everything was the same length when I started…” moments

So pretty!
Sarah Johannsen
I have so much trouble trying to figure out what room she’s working in, it’s confusing. I’d love like a house plan so I can see where the rooms are in relation to other rooms
Maurice Waque
I loved it as always! Can't the captive bring out a spotify album or something with full soundtracks or so? Because we need the creepy vibes! 😍
Trevor Howell
I learned recently that when you are cutting out fabric, put butcher paper underneath and it will help keep the fabric in place. That way it doesn’t warp as easily.
Sophia Z
Absolutely stunning!! If by chance this can be answered...those floors...did you sand/varnish them? I have an 1895 home and I've been battling what to do with my attic floor boards which are identical to those.
Amy Bainbridge
Amazing as always!!! I’m making a half tester canopy for my bed and you’re 100% right, it’s a head scratcher 😆 so thank you for some useful tips!!
Tammy R Dowden
So beautiful! I wish my sewing skills were even close to yours--I took Home Ec in high school many moons ago, and I'm just now getting back into sewing. You are my inspiration to learn!
Anna Radaelli
Nobody does dark academia like you! You're the best there is!
Racheal Jones
Beayoootiful! And I love the new Captive music at the end. Also appreciate that you mention that your "Do Not's" come from personal experience. :)
Melissa Kerns
Oh they’re simply exquisite!
Martha Soria
Wow this was for me like walking into Gothic Heaven mmmmm . Wow!
Kiki Reef
OMG! Same! I'm laughing out loud at those doggies! They're so cute!
Virginia Cardinal
Christine, the set for the talking bits is my favourite thus far! Very effective uses of light and dark. Impeccable composition. Love the new track too.
Heather Hofshi
They turned out so lovely! Do you clean them with the steam as well?
Brigitte Clark
Stunning!
LadyVegas
They are so beautiful! What type of velvet did you use?
Emily Martin
I cannot believe how talented you are. These are amazing!
Meg Hesness
2-LOVE the little outtake at the end! More behind the scenes please! 🥰

Arthur Buttons bunny hopping under the velvet made me snort out loud!!
Anne Z Knight
Gorgeous. BTW- About 16 min in thought I saw a disembodied hand under your fabric. Did a double take before I realized what it was, lol
willow hofmann
Perfect timing. I need to create almost exactly this decorative little differences but this is perfection for what I need. Thank you so much!
Lilith DuBois
