Heres why AI doesnt scare me.Mandy Wildman :: Refashion Rebel2026-09-10 | As an upcycled clothing designer and the founder of the Refashion Rebels community I've been thinking a lot about artificial intelligence and I completely understand why so many creative people are skeptical and even angry and fearful of what it can do.
There are legitimate concerns about AI and in this video I address these from my personal perspective.
What if AI could help us as makers get more organized (always a challenge) draft our product descriptions, or take some of the drudgery of managing our finances?
THAT interests me.
So I'm starting a new series called AI for Makers, where I'll show you some of the ways I've discovered that AI can become a sort of creative sidekick for makers.
We're talking about this a lot in the Refashion Rebels community. Come and join us (it's free): skool.com/refashionrebels

DO THIS!Mandy Wildman :: Refashion Rebel2026-08-29 | Want to help your favorite YouTuber get monetized faster? ❤️ There’s a super-simple way to watch their videos without having to click on every single one!
In this video, I’ll show you how to find and install the Play All Button for YouTube so you can play an entire channel’s videos with one click.
I’m using it to support fellow upcycling and sewing creators and I’d LOVE for you to try it on my channel, too! 😍
And if YOU are a YouTuber working toward monetization, send this video to your friends and say: “Help a girl out!” 😂

- why she made the switch - what she learned along the way, and - what it’s like to rebrand your YouTube channel when your passion changes.
If you’ve ever thought about reinventing your own creative path, you’ll love Anna’s story! ❤️♻️
It's free and I made it for YOU. Come find us, Rebel.❤️YouTube’s 8K Watch-Hour Fiasco: Here’s What I’m Doing InsteadMandy Wildman :: Refashion Rebel2026-08-18 | So YouTube is raising the watch-hour bar from 4,000 to 8,000 hours and yes, like a lot of small creators, my first reaction was basically: WHAT?! 😂
But after I got over the initial frustration, I realized something important:
I don't actually need YouTube ad revenue to make YouTube valuable to my creative business.
In this video, I’m sharing why I’m choosing to look at YouTube differently and the five ways I use it to support my work as an upcycled clothing creator, mentor, and community builder.
In this video I talk about:
✨ Using YouTube as a FREE marketing and outreach tool ✨ Sharing what you know and helping other makers ✨ Building genuine connection and community ✨ Keeping your mindset, creativity and motivation on track
For me, YouTube isn't the product. YouTube is the doorway.
It gives people a chance to discover my work, get to know me, find other creative makers, and ultimately discover the Refashion Rebels community. (skool.com/refashionrebels)
So yes, I’d love those watch hours. 😉 But I’m not going to let a changing YouTube rule distract me from the much bigger opportunity.
If you're a handmade, upcycled, refashioning, sewing, or creative entrepreneur wondering whether YouTube is worth your time I truly hope this gives you a different way to look at it.
And I'd love to know what YOU think. Are you chasing the 8,000 hours, ignoring them, or looking at YouTube in a completely different way?
In this episode, I'm talking with Michelle Paganini of Paganunu about her remarkable journey from a 40-year career in medical devices to becoming an upcycling educator, designer, and entrepreneur.
At 49, Michelle realized she didn't want to wait until retirement to pursue her dream of becoming an artist. She enrolled in fashion design school and eventually discovered upcycling, 3D sewing, and a whole new creative path!
Today, Michelle has sold more than 10,000 upcycling tutorials and has helped countless makers learn how to transform existing garments into something completely new.
In our conversation, we talk about:
✂️ Why Michelle calls upcycling "3D sewing" 👗 How she went from modifying clothes for herself to building a business 💡 Why she chose to sell tutorials instead of finished clothing 📌 The HUGE Pinterest mistake she made and how she learned from it 📺 How she ended up appearing on a PBS TV show 🧵 What makes an upcycling tutorial successful 🌎 Why teaching others to upcycle has become part of her legacy ❤️ And why she believes it's never too late to reinvent yourself
Michelle's story is a wonderful reminder that creativity doesn't have an expiration date and sometimes the thing you start simply because you love it can become something that reaches thousands of other people.
And if you're curious about the Refashion Rebel Community there's more info HERE: skool.com/refashionrebelsWhy I Chose SKOOL.COM for My Upcycled Clothing CommunityMandy Wildman :: Refashion Rebel2026-08-11 | I get asked about Skool.com quite a bit, so I decided to make a quick video about why I chose it for my upcycled clothing community, Refashion Rebels.
If you're thinking about starting an online community, membership, or course, I'll share what attracted me to Skool and why I think it's such a great option for creators who want to build a community around what they love.
I've been using Skool to grow Refashion Rebels, and I'm excited about what we've been able to build there!

In this inspiring interview, I sit down with upcycled clothing maker Charlotte Besaw to talk about her journey from getting started as a maker to becoming a consistent success at craft shows and markets.

The Return of the Elk to North Carolina🦌(and they ate my garden!)Mandy Wildman :: Refashion Rebel2026-05-11 | Thought this might amuse you guys. 😄 We had a visit today from a local elk herd. We recently planted our garden, and after all the rain, the organic spring flowers and vegetable plants are extra sweet and juicy right now. Not that we’ll ever get to see them bloom or eat the fruits of our labor. 😂 But honestly, we don’t even mind. Seeing the elk flourishing again in this area is worth far more than a garden. It’s such a cool thing to witness. 🦌❤️

I took two old and rather boring skirts and used the aqua one to jazz up the beige one. Then I made a simple waistband with elastic, and of cours some giant pockets with the scraps. You can do this!

He is a mine of incredible info about how ridiculously easy it is to use Pinterest to market (and actually SELL) your precious handmade and upcycled creations. I loved his advice for those of us (like me) who have an old (old!) Pinterest account! Check it out!
