I'd loooove to see a video of you guys doing cursed mirrors! - flashbacks to the baked beans phone case -

[@StudioCreatives333]

Evan gives off orange cat vibes. Constant chaos. Katelyn is definitely black cat vibes. Can be calm but will add to the chaos when there’s some.

[@AK-031]

Why she’s such a good mom to Joob

[@taylorlandin1186]

You should put googly eyes on the top view camera for when you guys do mirror projects or projects that have a reflective surface that shows the top view camera

[@wandahall8739]

I’m glad you let us know what was in the middle because I was really confused, I thought it was a bad spot that you couldn’t get rid of🤪

[@Amarianee]

The confusion on both me and my Joobie clone at the first "Coco!" was priceless. I forgot you named the furbie Coco, and was like, "What? Her name is Joob, _my_ void is Coco..." (I was painting, not looking at my phone for the context lol) She was sitting on the couch, right next to the phone, and looked up when she heard her name, responded the second time, then gave 0 f's afterwards 😂

[@im_some_how_alive2376]

Give your coco some head pats for me

[@a7xmaNga]

lol a lovely coincidence? i guess

[@MaverickJackJohnson]

I think you mean the chaos that's InEVANable... XD I'll see myself out.

Ya know I really ignored the longer streams but I find I really enjoy them while I’m knitting. It’s always hard to find something to knit with and watch because I hate changing the video, but this is perfect!

[@layladavis02]

I use it while cleaning fun background noise and I can always look to see progress. I really got tired of just hearing music after many years of it lol. Need something different

[@Missmiserie]

Felt the same way I don’t knit I haven’t learned yet but the longer videos are definitely perfect for doing your own crafts along side them ❤

[@RichardYauman]

The claims that the resin spill could not be seen sent me back to their gameplay videos of Sons of the Forests videos where they denied the wanton murder of all those poor sea turtles.

[@marija2616]

What do you mean, those sea turtles were clearly killed by sharks

[@Nirrrina]

They were definitely taken out by disguised penguin special forces.

[@famira_seapancake]

Yeaaa, those shells totally just washed up on the beach..

[@hellothere2506]

They were killed by the helicopters man don’t you know

[@laurens3857]

In the arms of an angel 🎵

[@mattersofthehartbynat8815]

I would never normally click on a 3 hour video, (way longer than my ADHD attention span)… but I was wanting to have something playing in the background (cause I was having trouble sleeping)… ended up getting engrossed instead of being put to sleep!! So I had to turn it off… but first thing this morning, I put it back on to finish watching… you guys are awesome, as are your resin creations!! I am now a new subscriber. Thank you so much for the inspiration! Much love from Nat (Brisbane, Australia) ♥️♥️🇦🇺

[@youmebornfree]

searching for alternative stain glass and found your cheap vs expensive videos... now ive watched hours of you weirdos. its been fun and inspiring for my creativity.

[@laurens3857]

Welcome!

[@captain.capybara]

the wave one was so sad because they nailed it and then that bubble absolutely ruined their work 😭

[@sandysanders4199]

You should try the Purely Pigments line from Colour Arte. Contact Lesley and tell her Sandy said to send you some samples. She didn’t know how to reach you. The colors are colorfast and are amazing.

[@VeeHoffman]

The journey of that ocean waves mirror was definitely a Top 10 Anime Betrayals contender. That said, as a mixed media artist I LOVE your streams because I love seeing those journeys, knowing how many I've made myself, and thinking "it's still really good art!!"

[@sarahsnow9088]

I can't wait for them to dive into the world of UV resin and flowers made into jewelry. I would love to see them make tall tapered candles from wax or resin. I would love to see them do animal molds with flowers in them, like a snail, but the shell is made up of dried flowers or a cat figure that is filled with flowers. I would like to see them do "blooming" resin creations too. There are a few channels on KZbin that have wonderful tutorials they can follow.

[@butzel19]

when katelyn had to log back in, it made me thin that you can get keyboards covers made of silicone, it´s for labs and medical places, but maybe something like that would also make using your laptop less stressful during resin pours. just a idea. Or wrap the whole thing in clingfilm 😁 (except ventilation holes)

[@EloTheCurious]

2:30:17 this moment makes me think about that question you always get asked during job applications for in-person jobs that require standing, “Are you able to stand for an entire 8 hour shift with or without reasonable accommodation?” You guys were doing something very fun, but still physically demanding for 3 hours throughout this stream and it were basically standing in one place, or at having very little room to move around. It’s just fascinating the level of demand standard in person jobs that require standing for long periods of time have on us. Like it is actually reasonable to be able to be a cashier for example for 8+ hours a day without a chair and only 10 minutes breaks, or a lunch at best. To be clear I think it’s incredibly reasonable for you guys to have gotten tired after just 2 and half hours especially given you guys wearing those ventilators, and given the angle you guys have to be at to see what you’re doing effectively. Nonetheless, a fascinating observation to explore.

[@k-lingon-berry]

What a cool project, the mirror + resin combo looks amazing. That ocean mirror would look fantastic in a themed bathroom. 🌊 My favourite is definitely the flower one, so beautiful. 💮😍

[@denimeier8675]

idk who is complaining about the heat gun or the new air gun sounds because they absolutely aren't loud at all 🤷‍♀️ plus the blend and vibe from the highest setting on the new aur gun was incredible 👏👏👏

[@cayenigma]

Watched the vod this morning, came here to see the dried result, was not disappointed!

[@L0rdOfThePies]

Love when evan puts on his devil horns and starts wringing his hands deviously 🪰

[@bobblebardsley]

You guys are the perfect combination of wholesome vs butts, and I love when you do something like this live, then uncut on KZbin, then potentially an edited video on your main channel in the future. I don't often make the live streams but I do often either watch the uncut or play it in the background while working or taking a bath or something, and it's kinda heartwarming to hear chat say you nailed the intro and stuff like that 🥰 There's never enough love in the world but E+K = a very big net gain on the ol' love account.

[@sussybaka-cf9ll]

EARLY ILY GUYS SO MUCH U GUYS HELPED ME GET BACK INTO ART, im 14 years old and i was so unmotivated until i started watching you guys❤❤❤❤

[@L0rdOfThePies]

I still feel like im 14 even though im not 😂 covid has my age all wack

[@UnboundedArtandCrafts]

1:13:58 The reason the iridescent film doesn't work on the mirror and does work on the aluminium is because the film needs to be on the reflective surface. With the mirror it's on the glass and the light goes through that, hits the reflective coating and bounces back which in theory cancels out the film. 1:23:15 yes just that 😅

[@aeroscorpian]

I think it would be cool for a mobile E&K museum, with mini workspace... Then you guys could take it around for meet and greets that could include up close look at the art. 💜

[@butterflybebe253]

O.M.G I’m so happy I made it to the video in 3 mins!!! I’ve always wanted to put resin on mirrors to see if it would affect the reflection… I can’t wait to see what happens!!!!!

[@EthanTheWerewolf]

Ive watched so many Evan and Katelyn that im able to just hear some of the noises in some parts where sounds would be edited in lmao. Im like half asleep so words are extra hard rn lmao

[@porschereynolds4862]

Love “I know what to do guys, I just never do it” statement hahaha

[@CrzzyCat]

Rude much, posting uncuts when I'm about to go to sleep >;( Jokes aside, excited to watch this tomorrow!!

[@janboll7174]

I love the irregular center - but the practical side of me wonders how hard it would be to actually clean the center in the future. // OH MY GOSH!! Twice (in 1 video) Evan actually decided, on his own, to stop without going overboard!!

[@tylociraptor8131]

I love the very "man with new tool" feels Evan brings to the table.

[@joncollier1934]

Chaos is in-EVAN-etable!

[@chew_1993]

I binged all the crafting videos on the main and uncut channel while I was recovering from surgery and I’m so happy to have a new stream to watch! ❤

[@-ellieille-]

I got to see the first 4 being made live (curse and all) but I’m glad now I can watch the full flower experience! 🌸

[@Smartielew]

Wish I could have caught this stream live but unfortunately had to miss it. Excited to watch it today ❤️❤️

[@Smartielew]

Just finished and loved every moment! Y’all are the best at experimentation and slowly learning when to just stop messing with it 😂😂

[@LaylaTB88]

Love arts and craft streams

[@TotalBoat]

Love them ALL!!! 😍😍

[@kimilini4814]

I love every one of these!!! Side note. Everyone would have loved to support you both taking a “BRB” for 5 minutes to take off your packs and rest your backs before returning to do the geode ❤ I suffer from chronic pain and felt your bodies asking for a break! Maybe find an entertaining break montage/song/Joob (?!) experience for us to enjoy while you break 🥰

[@chrisowens517]

I feel like the glass powder could be used on a seascape to make some really cool froth and/or sand with some gray resin rocks.

[@brianb6969]

I think #3 should be LED Backlit! Nice!!!!

[@Skirt553]

ngl, seeing y'all interacting with one another is so friggin' wholesome. Love it!

[@neilperry2224]

It's exquisite and beautiful,looks like the mixed water from washing water colour paint brushes. On a waste piece of paper.

[@miniscenesgb]

watching this back after, I'm transfixed. These are very satisfying makes. And you two are such fun. Thank you

[@Mack__D]

28 minutes!! I love you guys' videos! Yall inspire me so much and I hope I can be as creative as yall!

[@rachelgianocaro3745]

I love how their first thought when the battery on the switcher died was "Coco?". I remember watching that video, and the ENTIRE TIME I was like, "that's kinda cursed," but also laughing SO HARD at the same time. Coco is DEFINITELY a CURSED yet EXTREMELY hilarious Furby/robot/dog... uh... creation

[@craftylittleguy]

It's so sweet seeing them interact

[@Shamoss1080]

Love the vids guys, great work. You guys could make resin versions of a range of desk knick knacks like Newtons Balls, rubik's cube , Russian dolls, etc. See which ones work and don't 🙂

[@TinaOsborne-wb7sb]

This was such a fun stream. I'd love to see you guys making more of these, if you're down. Thanks for sharing.

[@songofshadow5043]

I love the ending of this video.

[@neilperry2224]

Hi guys, I hope you're both well and enjoying life. I was watching Evan pouring 🫗 with the small jug and pulling it backwards off the cups, if you turn the jug or bottle of wine. You stop the water or wine or whatever lol The strength or flow of the liquid is stopped. That's why there is a dimple in the bottom of a "champagne" bottle. You rest the wrapped " champagne bottle in the palm of your hand. You then place your thumb into the 'dimple' at the bottom. And when you poor it out into the champagne 🍾 flutes, you turn the bottle when you finish pouting you won't lose any 'champers".🎉 🥂🍾🥂🎉

[@Zarainify]

Love it! Especially the ocean one, I am a total sucker for all oceany themed things. :D Btw. I just wanted to add to the "black - key" discussion - I was told it is key, because it is a key colour to make everything pop. I have to say that I really love your channels, I especially cherish those uncut videos (I like to watch those during Sims 4 sessions) - you are both so easy going, nice (in the best sense of the word) and creative. Honestly couple goals! Take care.

[@Katputze]

I just wanna say i only know you guys from waking up in the middle of the night and your videos are playing. Anyways gonna go back to sleep ✌️

[@Tanya_Maria]

The geode one is my favourite! ❤ I love anything bling glits and glamour like that one!

[@shainRylie]

SO glad you guys did this! I saw the video inspo for the first mirror and immediately thought of you two trying it

[@RedHotMessResell]

Yall are gonna inspire me with this perfect timing because I just found an old mirror while cleaning and it has no frame and would be cool to do art on. If I use resin though I would need a filtration mask.

[@daniellesmith7301]

This comment is more for the main channel, but you guys should do a crochet cheap vs expensive kit video. I say this because I watch you guys while I crochet! love you guys!

[@ashleyvannoortbell5450]

For the flower mirror, I like that it still works as a mirror but I think you should paint the edge so it can give that finished feeling Kaitlyn was looking for

[@R31NDROP]

Oooo can’t wait to watch this one!

[@rachelgianocaro3745]

1:05:40 Not messing with resin is SO much HARDER than I thought when I first started resin. Thanks for getting me into resin, by the way!

[@lightblue_nightmare6395]

Even: we are out of baby powder Katelyn: WHAT!? no there is another bottle

[@thewaywardnurse9805]

I loved the flowers the most! Ive never wanted to do a resin project before but the dried pressed flowers on the mirror is just so beautiful!! I dont like the edge though... i think the forbidden slushie would have worked if you lined both the inside and outside with it to make it more cohesive. I definitely want to make a mirror lined with dried flowers now

[@Douglas-qp3ep]

Love your energy in your videos

[@Tanya_Maria]

YES a resin video! ❤

[@mrman2651]

E & K ❤️👍 I love you guys! 😊

[@5wonforjungwon]

it would look so cool on the iridescent one to make a vinyl cut of joob doing something fun (fairy, mermaid, space, etc.) out of a silvery/holo!!! (bc Katelyn mentioned lisa frank)

[@emilybutler9487]

I think merch with the patterns from these would look cool. The ones that only go part of the way could be on the hem of a shirt or something

[@Bailee_Huck]

Not me half expecting to see myself when he holds the mirror up to the camera 😂😂

[@pradagirl224]

This video got me through my third 12 hour overnight shift in a row so thanks for that😅you guys are the best

[@gigatheprotogen]

Woooo! More E&K shenanigans!

[@emilyanderson4248]

For the flower mirror I think having an inside edge would have been nice. For example make a doughnut of flowers in a mold and then put on top of the mirror. Then you have a clean edge, pretty flowers, and a mirror

[@L84me2]

35:14 "The aftermath". In my shop it's called "The Craftermath". 😂 Love your videos, I'm a new subscriber to all your channels!

[@genajones7914]

This is giving me ideas for my fireplace cover mirror I plan on making soon!

[@Skyril2]

I think the iridescent one is still my fav, followed by the geode, then probably the flowers or the planet? The only one I didn't love was the waves, but this was honestly so much fun to watch. Surely y'all have wall space in your house to hang five relatively small mirrors? Just put them up in different rooms. Hang them on doors!!

[@tiny.cat.potato]

"E: where are we going hang all this things? K: in the bathroom across from the toilet" That was just the perfect end to the video

[@ashleydawn8989]

I LOVE these long videos

[@jacobcharleszimmerman7934]

The fans for their masks sound like being on an airplane, and it's extremely nostalgic for me for some reason.

[@gr33ngirlsea]

I'd imagine every time you were on a plane you were on your way to (or home from) an exciting trip!

[@DashitaTichou]

If you haven't, I'd look at ordering frit next time you do geodes! It's a different type of glass. Glass blowers roll their gather in frit to add cool colors and textures to their finished pieces.

[@jennyweinkle1099]

This is so fun!🤩 😊❤

[@heyspookyboogie644]

For the flower one, I would have made a circular template or something in the middle so it stayed clear of resin in a clean way, cause it seems like it would be a bad mirror filled entirely with resin.

[@aicirtkciub9167]

Im happy you went with leave it.

[@Purple_Crochet]

[@lauragrube2399]

I wonder if it would be possible to make a water ripple effect with uv resin on a mirror. I think that would look so trippy and cool ❤

[@wereshnefer]

oooh, this looks like fun!

[@pyroanimus]

19:00 that is an INSANE amount of power for a tiny air-g^n 😂 (Idk how youtube feels about that word so I'm changing it just in case 😅)

[@MaggieML]

Wake up babe, new e&k uncut just dropped

[@zy_mac]

ooo i feel so cool catching this one so early yippey

[@shaynecoventry8894]

Beautiful. I'd like to see some kind of crazy infinity mirror set up like this. Oh since Koko got brought up, does Koko jump up on the bed at night and kick either one of you out? Lol

[@dingus01]

A UV REFLECTING ONE WOULD BE COOL TOO. THAT AND LIKE A SECRET HIDDEN MESSAGE MIRROR THAT CAN BE USED IN ESCAPE ROOMS OR SOMETHING.

[@Nirrrina]

I bought a transparent pigment mix in for resin when I started with resin that might work better for this. I've been known to mix that with micas too.

[@Bailee_Huck]

I think the guy in the original video let the blue cure before adding the white waves so it didnt sink/mix too much and also so the blue didnt slide of the edge like that but yours still turned out cool! Id like to see you guys try ocean resin in 2 parts in the future tho!

[@asiaclayed]

As I set mt coffe on my stomach to rub my eye, "I'll be the rubbing ... boy." LOL I tried to not laugh to save my coffee but no I couldn't hold the laughter. Haha

[@FandomTOBY]

The K in CMYK actually stands for "Key" as black is the key colour for getting most of the colours, without that, everything would constantly be very saturated and some colours are not possible if black is left out- BUT Katelyn is still right though. They also couldn't use B due to Blue in RGB already using said letter. People might think of it as "Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Blue" instead if they had used B again. I know K also stands for the thing called Key-plate being used that the black colour is printed with but chat had already mentioned that as I was typing this lol Just wanted to edit this so that it's not confusing. Many meanings behind a smol letter nonetheless

[@murphan25]

Y'all need one of those hand held balloon-shaped air puffer thingies. I know Tim Holtz sells them for alcohol inks but I know there might be cheaper versions out there.

[@mustangjustin7654]

I would love to see you guys incorporate foxes into an upcoming build! They're so cute! Lol.

[@TheBntimmins]

for copy machines, C, M, Y, and K are used in the product names on the manufacturing side. So 30C is 30 cyan. K is short for key. Something in how the black (K) is used to darken as needed.

[@Miscellaneous_Minx]

I think the mica powder would make reallly nice maybe cloud details or ripples in a puddle

[@neilperry2224]

When you said you were going "to put the white away" is to say you're finishing your drink in Scotland!! You should play the Russell Watson (English tenor opera singer). Brain cancer survivor x 2. From the series Enterprise Satrring the unrated actor Scott Bakula. His film about the plane courier lost over the Pacific ocean is an underrated film.
