This video–complete with uplifting message, particularly if you’re the sort who generally likes to get shit done–was created by Cathy Hay, who teaches people how to make corsets and other period costumery (Is that a word? Well, if it isn’t, it is now). She’s got a huge fan base, not just because there are a lot more people than you might guess who are into making retro clothing, but because she understands creatives in general. Seriously, you should subscribe to her Youtube channel. It’ll bust open your world.

Now, if you’ve been coasting until the Pandemic is over, listen up.
