goodbye threadbanger

as loyal fan of thread banger i was gutted when i watched the video that they were leaving thread banger. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jOwsquic29g
I've been following them for 2 years now and it wasn't a good bye i was not expecting it and it was very sudden and unexplained I'm sure 1000's of other thread banger fans feel the same. Rob and Corinne were the reason why I subscribed to thread banger. I've learnt so much from them one day i was browsing the Internet and i found one the best things that ever happened to me in my life, thread banger. now i had always loved sewing but thread banger changed my life and introduced me to the wonderful world of diy, I'm a diyer for life because of them. i remember watching my first thread banger video and thinking wow i wanna make that, so cut up a old pair of jeans and made my first jean bag and i felt so proud of what i made and ever since that day i knew making things was my passion. so know i want to be a fashion designer and create things that no ones seen before and its all thanks to thread banger if i had never of seen that video i would have never of made my first bag and i would have never been inspired to make clothes and i would have never found my passion. so thank you rob,corinne and meg because i will miss you and so will millions of other thread banger fans and i hope you succeed in your dreams.

now I've been a fan of secret life of a bio nerd for 1 year and a half now and she is very good. she could never replace thread banger but people should give her a chance because she also inspired me and she is a very good seamstress. i give her tutorials 9/10 they are very good, she might not be thread banger but at least she is trying. i suport K.L people should give her a chance its not her fault rob, corinne and meg are leaving.

im a seamstress on youtube too and it is the art of diy i want to share even if i inspire one person i want to continue the spirt of thread banger although im nothing like thread banger i still want to share my diy projects with any one who will watch. http://www.youtube.com/user/chantellefashion

confessions of a ugly girl











i've been shopping, hee hee how can a broke girl shop? beg mummy for money (yess i know sad). well what i've been up to latly is finding and making cute clothes im going to add two new cute top to my clothing store once i have finnished making them.




i went a little crazy with my nails painted each nail a diffrent colour ten colurs for 10 fingers.




look at these two pictures below before photoshop and after photoshop.




See, I don't deny that I was born ugly.Then we come to the make up bit.
Please understand. What if you are born ugly, BUT, you are blessed with a skill? A skill so valuable With the skill, you can make yourself look better with make up and photoshop. With the two, you can feel more confident of yourself, and make others view you in a better light as well. Miraculously, you can have the opposite sex's attention, without even doing plastic surgery on urself.

you can fake it with make up in the pictures above i have faked bigger and brighter eyes with makeup if you saw me in real life my eye wouldn't look that pretty. then i have removed blemishes and my bad skin with photoshop, now don't get me wrong im not vein im actually far from it i have low self esteem in the real world but on the Internet i can fake it a be "the perfect girl" a "pretty girl" this is the image i want to portray to my YouTube viewers. but actual i thunk im so ugly. but when i show these pictures on YouTube and i get so many comment telling me im pretty this makes me happy! because it give me confidence. this is why i fake my picture im not trying to desive anyone what wrong with using a little photoshop to change your image celebrity's do it all the time.

Having a choice between being all natural but ugly, and made-up but beautiful, I choose the latter. There is nothing wrong with my decision at all. If you are feeling pissed that some people did not manage to see through the make-up and photoshop and decided that I am a natural beauty, well, its their stupidity and there is nothing you can do about it
