Hello, good afternoon. My name is Brandi Vandergriff, and I am a local decorator
in my area. And today I have the amazing opportunity to show you guys how you can take
a very basic denim coat such as this one that I paid $20 For and potentially sell it for an
upward of $165 and today we are going to be focusing on my favorite material.
Drumroll Are you guys ready? I'm so excited. CAD-CUT Glitter Flake of vinyl.
And today we are going to be using the rip away applique method which means we are
going to be using my embroidery machine. And I'm going to show you how easy it is
to use this material. So here we go. And just so you guys know I just got engaged, I am so excited.
And we are going to be decorating the back of the crowds. And I'm going to be putting
my future last name which is Franken so I'm going to be putting Mrs. Franken in the back. And I am
also going to be putting some flowers above the left shoulder and I am going to be implementing
my wedding colors. I'm going to be using whites. I'm going to be using orange Navy and a Rose Gold
Glitter Flake vinyl today. And I'll go ahead and show you those right now. So here are the four
colors that we're going to be using today white rose gold, the Navy and the orange. And I will
show you how easy it is to use this material using an embroidery machine and the rip away method. So
let's go ahead and hoop my coat. I have my grommet hoops. And now we're going to go ahead and put the
hoop onto the machine and get started. But I just wanted to mention to you really quick when you go
ahead and watch my rip away process really focused on the satin stitch and how you will see no frame
because if you've been doing embroidery, you know that one of the downfalls to doing applique
is the constant frame that you get when you go to cut the material around the design. So I'm going
to go ahead and put this on the machine and show you how simple it is to use this material. And
this is how simple it is to rip the Glitter Flake away from the carrier. I'm going to go ahead and
rip off a piece that's about 10 by 10 inches in size and then we will start the next process.
The next step is to lay the beautiful vinyl down like this. I went ahead and loaded my design as
I mentioned and I always put a little extra vinyl just in case I miss measured because I
would rather have too much than not enough so we're going to go ahead and start my machine
just refresh your guys's memory we are going to do a
floral embroidery design above the left shoulder and we are using the rose gold material
we are using the Navy and last but not least the orange for the flowers and I will show
you how easy it is to rip away the excess material in just a few minutes. So here we go
okay, so I went ahead and stitched out my very first flower. And now we are going to
go ahead and rip away this material so that we can apply it the next color they mentioned
rip away Bada bing, look how simple that was. Now I'm going to go ahead and restart my machine
in our last rubber way that we need to do before we take this cow off the hoop,
Hey everyone, so your next step is to go ahead and rip away any excess material that you might have.
And I'm going to zoom in on the satin stitching so that you can see that there will be no fraying
from this material. And I do want to mention that ripping away this material is very satisfying
to listen to. I don't know why, but it is beautiful to listen to for some reason I
can just like watch videos beyond videos of like rip away being done. So I'm going
to zoom in so you can experience this yourself. So here we go. And we are away
See how easy it is to rip away
it's easy peasy takes just a moment.
I'm going to use my tweezers for any excess pieces that I can't get with my fingers.
I have my tweezers, I just have a few of these pieces of grab really quick. Okay, so our last and
final step is to use our heat press to apply the material to our garments. And I always recommend
printing your instructions in advance. I have all of my literally all my instructions for
all my material printed and stored in this binder so that I don't ever have to go online
to figure out that pitcher in the time for any material. It's super convenient.
And one last thing actually I am using a heat pillow today because there are many themes on this
coat and I want to make sure I get an equal amount of heat and pressure so that my material will not
come off and I will show you what it looks like in just a moment. Now I'm ready to rock and roll.
I have my pillow ready. I'm just going to go ahead and feed this coat on to the platen. I
want to make sure it's even underneath so that it gets an even amount of pressure all around
does make sure to use craft paper and I'm going to go for 12 seconds sitting
and it is done. I have a few jump stitches that I'm going to remove but this is how it turned out.
I think it turned out pretty amazing a beautiful okay everyone so here is the finished products. I
am super impressed with how it turned out. I love the personalized flowers with the Glitter Flake.
I love my last name to be I did add some lips to the color along with my wedding dates and I wanted
the wedding date facing me instead of the opposite direction. So when I have the cuff flipped,
it made it even more special. So as I mentioned before we use the STAHLS' CAD-CUT Glitter
Flake material today and we did the rip away applique method using embroidery.
Thank you so much for watching my video. Have a great day and it was such a pleasure
