Canopy Bed - Side Drapes and Valances - From the Mind of Christine McConnell

Comments

The colours are stunning, especially that velvet. The finished look is absolutely gorgeous

Krysta Massey

The new song is so good! I believe the captive is responsible for the incredible music in your videos? He has outdone himself

Disco Pickle

Is that a new title card? Love it!

Andie C

This is awesome - though, what do you do to clean them? 😅

Lauren

Loved this vid. Song at the end was giving Victorian gin hall in the best way

Ashley Shelden

It’s still that large guest room. Note the owl above the headboard, the side tables, bedside rugs… lighting is everything!

Ms. Peabody

Holy Moly Christine. These are amazing. <3

Marti Kennedy

Yes! That episode is coming this month :))

Christine McConnell

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)

Angell Cloxen

Did you do the top part of the bed as well yourself?

Darby Ferguson

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.

Mina Murray

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

AliLou Creations

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

Debra S. Apostol

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

Welikemeatloaf

So pretty!

Welikemeatloaf

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

Sarah Johannsen

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! 😍

Maurice Waque

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.

Trevor Howell

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.

Sophia Z

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!!

Amy Bainbridge

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!

Tammy R Dowden

Nobody does dark academia like you! You're the best there is!

Anna Radaelli

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. :)

Racheal Jones

Oh they’re simply exquisite!

Melissa Kerns

Wow this was for me like walking into Gothic Heaven mmmmm . Wow!

Martha Soria

OMG! Same! I'm laughing out loud at those doggies! They're so cute!

Kiki Reef

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.

Virginia Cardinal

They turned out so lovely! Do you clean them with the steam as well?

Heather Hofshi

Stunning!

Brigitte Clark

They are so beautiful! What type of velvet did you use?

LadyVegas

I cannot believe how talented you are. These are amazing!

Emily Martin

2-LOVE the little outtake at the end! More behind the scenes please! 🥰

Meg Hesness

Arthur Buttons bunny hopping under the velvet made me snort out loud!!

Kim Ladouceur

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

Anne Z Knight

Perfect timing. I need to create almost exactly this decorative little differences but this is perfection for what I need. Thank you so much!

willow hofmann

So beautiful! 🖤

Lilith DuBois
