Her choice of materials shows that she isn’t only talented and creative, but also very resourceful. Regarding the peculiar choice of fabric, she said: “I’m usually making stuff out of things you can find around the house, like curtains or an old bedsheet, and I think that appeals to a lot of people because you don’t have to go anywhere to get it, and it’s very cheap.”
Micarah began attracting viewers and attention with her creative, complex and interesting projects such as “Creating a Cinderella Costume ft. Wisdom Teeth Removal” and “Turning a Couch into Fashion”.
