When is the pumpkin t-shirt Katelyn is wearing dropping?! x

Please do the game life is strange double exposure!

pumpkin t shirt is out now! 🎃

[@katehughes5002]

Is Evan's shirt not your merch 😢 where can I get it?

[@ravenmacbeth9384]

I love the idea of an "evil" witch whose idea of being evil is just mildly inconveniencing people.

[@babybaklavagus]

Like Dr. Doofenschmirtz 😂😂

[@aayyyooooo]

I am that witch. 😂😉

[@TarisLuna]

To be fair, the mild inconveniences are the things that can make you go crazy, if they happen often enough

[@exotherm42]

For my bubbling cauldron I dry-brushed the whole cauldron with some metallic paint beforehand so it looks a little scuffed up and less plastic-y, then added globs of hot glue all over the rim and running down the sides. Painted it a nice, toxic green so it looks like build up potion spillage from years of brewing. Totally worth the extra effort imo.

[@EvanandKatelynUncut]

that's a great idea!

[@blaah9999]

I made a base for mine with spray expanding insulation and lights to look like a fire. 😂

[@gothicryuzaki125]

I wonder how colored hot glue would look

[@tenshikaren]

@@gothicryuzaki125 Probably pretty good if it has an iridescence to it or add clear nail polish coat with it? Not sure it's safe with the polymers, maybe use a pearl luster dust instead. Otherwise the hot glue might not reflect the light like a liquid because the heat makes it dull, otherwise great idea!

[@blazer5154]

Zombie blood, thrice decanted, from a bottle with the label slanted.

[@CadenceTheSloth]

This made me not hate the crooked label. Much appreciated!!

[@melissagardner6701]

I love how Evan isn't afraid to publicly show how much he adores Katelyn!❤

[@Neon-Starr]

The part where he asked her on a date was so cute!!

[@konijnization]

A bit of the Gomez Addams vibe

[@Goldy-Bear88]

i adore the "we do nice pranks" so sweet and loveing that you two do little pranks on each other but respect the other to not go to far

[@BobBobson]

Little tip: If you're testing and don't know if the bottle is going to fall off and spray food coloring everywhere, try it with water first. You can add the dye later once you know it works.

[@EvanandKatelynUncut]

that's a good tip!

[@plaidcrafts]

Hi Evan and Katelyn! Thank you for using our Mod Podge Stiffy to recreate these fun DIY cheesecloth ghosts. We appreciate you sharing our video and wanted to send you a friendly challenge to create an even bigger ghost! Please take a look at what we are cooking up over on our KZbin Shorts. 👻🧡

[@KacielNolwen]

I would love to see E&K attempt that!

[@fynn2350]

I misread this as "DIY cheesecloth GOATS" and was wondering how this would work. Please can you try to make a goat in this style? In a halloween setting it could be part of a small-scale ritual circle. We all know how much goats love these 😂

[@chaosoverflow]

You might want to be careful, the ultrasonic mister will leave a residue everywhere the mist lands if there's any particles in the water. That dye might leave a green dust, especially if the water wasn't distilled.

[@mon4711]

As I was watching this I poured my first ever resin! It was scary but exciting, now I know why you guys love it so much. Do do do do resin time 👩‍🔬

[@EvanandKatelynUncut]

congrats!

[@mon4711]

Blessed by resin gods ✨️​ @@EvanandKatelynUncut

[@92Pyromaniac]

Original cauldron maker: uses a small drop of glue and tilts the bottle sideways so the weight is supported by the glass and the glue is only there to prevent slipping. E&K: MORE GLUE! MORE CLAMPS!!

[@red-road-rot4970]

The main problem was their glass straw, I think the original was probably plastic bc hotglue doesn’t stick well to glass

[@aussiecountry9320]

17:28 Tick toc video: Uses just a dab of hot glue Evan and Katelyn: Creats a hot glue lake 🤣🤣

[@k-lingon-berry]

As a homebody who doesn't really do parties and is too old for trick-or-treat my favourite part of (pre-)Halloween is seeing all the cool spooky crafts and decorations people share, so I love this video. 🦇🎃 Also Evan's "I can't help it" at the beginning was too relatable. 😅 I too can't help but have ideas and buy more things than the project calls for.

[@dalhousieDream]

Same. It’s an addiction 🎃🎄

[@mwater_moon2865]

I love Katelyn's "hehe" at 1:37 in response to Evan's "I can't help it" as in, "yes, i KNOW..."

[@zeebee6533]

If you guys did the pickled eyeball floating bottle, you could paint some ping pong balls to look like eyes and place them inside the cauldron so they are floating and bobbing inside it.

[@SmartyPoohBear]

Omg, great idea!

[@lisahoshowsky4251]

You can actually get ping pong eyeballs from most dollar stores this time of year! I’ve been using them for years inside my cauldrons and they’re always a hit!

[@modernghost0]

If you have yard lights, you could totally put the bat in front of the yard lights! That way they'll see it flap around in view a little bit and it'll cast shadows.

[@LostGeordie]

At 1:12:00 when you zoomed in on the bat, my cat charged to the TV, stretched his paw out but luckily realised before he started attacking the TV 😅

[@yunchikan]

mine too! but mine already jumped and attacked at it XD

[@humandoodad]

I made so many cheese cloth ghosts over the years as a child. It was THE go-to kid craft for Halloween when I was young, I guess. Didn't do the lighting part, obviously, just hung them places. Low tech lol.

[@mwater_moon2865]

My kids did too, I still put them out 12 years later and they have held their shape! (I do store them carefully, nothing heavy on top). Theirs had googly eyes and little orange ribbon bow each so lights are un-necessary ; )

[@leonh1971]

You use that canned compressed air to cool the hot glue, it is almost as fast as super glue and activator. A little hack I've been using for a few years.

[@goopybird]

That flapping bat one is super cute and has really intrigued me! I wonder if it's possible to model a more realistic 3D bat body and keep the wings thin plastic or whether the excess weight would affect the movement too much, I really wanna try it now.

[@TheOReport1994]

Black tissue paper for the wings, and a tiny foam or paper body (or maybe even made out of a dried pumpkin seed that's painted black? )🎃

[@bardofthe90s57]

You two giggling during your pranks gives me life. Y'all are so sweet and seeing two people genuinely enjoying each other is so lovely. ❤

[@kaiwolff442]

Katelyn giving voice to the butterfly's suffering was so wholesome ❤

[@ravynshea3155]

I really want Evans shirt. it's so cool. I loved the cauldron, we've done with those clear balls you can fill, filled with them with glitter angel hair stuff, stuck them to the cauldron and added a led light, catches the light on the angel hair making it sparkle.

[@ademers03]

You guys are so freaking adorable together hahaha. I love how Katelyn is just absolutely endeared by Evan's silly antics XD Couple goals, truly

[@kathymarshall220]

1:28 Evan is the living embodiment of the improvisation lesson “Yes, And…” 😂

[@Shadowcat31]

You may have blocked some of the intake for the pump so it wasn't as strong as it needed to be for a fuller stream which would solve the splattering problem. Either get a slightly stronger pump, or make sure not to block the intake at all, also you need to minimize the amount of glue you used around the neck of the bottle , it was part of the reason why the stream was so erratic. It doesn't take a ton of glue, you just need to be patient and let it cool down fully before letting go, but I understand for a stream you cant be waiting forever just holding a bottle 😅

[@lemondelight4181]

It would have cooled down faster if they hadn't set the glue gun to the temperature of lava 😂

[@B1urb3rry4]

I would love to see you guys do resin origami! (I saw it online and I have no clue how you would pull it off but I’ll sum it up) you pour a tiny sheet or resin in a mold and let it dry, before folding it up :) THIS WOULD BE SO FUN TO SEE!!

[@StargazingDragon]

Evan just wants to bring the craft back to crafting lol. I'm soaking willow for crafts right now. I'm gonna bring his attitude with me lol

[@malicemacey]

Is soaking willow a euphemism?

[@Megan-nt7dm]

​@malicemacey I think they're soaking willow branches/stakes, you can use them to make baskets and other woven things

[@malicemacey]

@@Megan-nt7dm I know 😉 it was a joke

[@oliverer3]

​@@Megan-nt7dm We do like some underwater basket weaving around here. :3

[@Theexplorographer]

Evan using a sharpening stone bit to try and remove plastic from that cauldron is just... (chefs kiss)

[@carrioncrow8191]

How did you add “sharpening stone” as a searchable word in your comment? I’ve never seen that before

[@oliverer3]

​@@carrioncrow8191That's probably something on your end ^^'

[@carrioncrow8191]

@@oliverer3 yeah, it is not showing now, but when I clicked it the other day, it took me to videos of sharpening stones. It was kind of cool

[@coryart]

When Even was so proud of the "docking" and exclaimed "That's Pretty good" I heard in my head the scene from Short Circuit (1986) Where the robot "Jonny 5" was proud of his impression of a TV show and exclaimed "Pretty good, huh?"

[@TheOReport1994]

Yes! Edit: In the movie when the cats were climbing around the stove that was clearly on, did that give anyone else major anxieties as a cat owner!?

[@yamisart]

Not me and my dirty mind still giggling over the form of the ghost mold when you guys said "it's hard but still flexible" - "I don't mind ...as long as it stands on its own" 😂

[@catrinafairlady8404]

Instead of drilling more holes, why not run the wire out of the same hole as the handle?

[@freman]

They actually sell those as cat toys too. I have one, kept my kitties amused for 5 whole minutes :D

[@TheOReport1994]

And they played with a box for far longer! :P

[@DH-xw6jp]

Evan is a lucky man: a great family, cool in laws, a job he can use to justify nifty toys (you _deserve_ that 100 watts of glue melting power!). Katelyn... Well, she has to deal with Evan's chaos. She must be a saint.

[@Chaedron1]

I did the cheese cloth ghost but I used a kids baby doll that I got from a thrift store and draped the cheese cloth around the doll and wrapped it over the dolls head to make a Banshee cloak style ghost. It turned out pretty cool and looks good with lights.

[@jenniferowen2801]

The conversation at 24:00 is probably the best E&K convo I've seen.

[@Xenolaothe67]

Me thinks Evan may be a shopaholic

[@maryengle7015]

Agreed

[@AgRoseCrystal]

Evan really likes to add on the hot glue. I am now imagining him trying to make a hot glue 6-dice.

[@ImJustaSprout]

SHHHHHHHHHH. We don't wanna be giving him any ideas 😂

[@CrookedCreatureTV]

Okay but if you give it like 3 layers of mold release could you make dice by just filling the mold with hot glue?

[@noaccount2494]

@@CrookedCreatureTV hot glue doesn't stick to silicone. So yes you can just use hot glue in a mold that is of good quality. Just don't go too delicate in the details

[@ItsHaiCat]

I love how wholesome you guys were at 24:00.

[@kltbird182]

The ghosts are your family! The big one is Evan (bc he's super tall obvs), Katelyn is the smaller one, and Joob! So cute!

Let's go, wicked makers mentioned. One step closer to possible collab

[@NWolfsson]

On the Hot Glue tips, (roughing up the surfaces, not very good on glass), it seems like the 100w gun is hot enough so that the glue completely liquefies, and apparently has a lot more grip than it does using run-of-the-mill guns.

[@jeniferalvarez2914]

Evan’s shirt is amazing!

[@sierrah4299]

Thanks for the laughter!

[@MarisaTerres]

That ring light works sooo well for these ghosts!! all projects looked like so much fun.

Might have been easier to glue the bottle first to the straw then to the culdron and added the sticker last. 😂 how do they manage to make it look more complicated.

Imagine if you had the potion drink going into the pot with the bat flying around???? Combine the two crafts together coulda been epic =D

[@Aegopodium]

For the cauldron: Put the bottle at a steeper angle so the water flows down the lip of the bottle. This might stop the spurting. I simply love the bat flippity flap thing. I would not use weights as it makes it harder for the motor, thus adding noise. The kitty ghost is my favourite. It might be easier making the ghosts if you use a thin silicone sheet and place it on an elevated ball. It will be really easy to remove. Just my two cents. Or 3.

[@xDarkTrinityx]

The ghost one is adorable!

[@Sor_mmr]

See the gaps on the ghosts are important They demonstrate that its a floating ghost instead of a ghost costume Ya know?

[@dalhousieDream]

You can put a thick plastic chair mat on the floor (the kind you get at office stores).

22:10 Hot Glue Tip: I've put water on hot glue before to cool it down really quickly and haven't had a problem with it. Just use a spray bottle with water in it, or even just dip your finger in water and lightly dab at the hot glue (assuming the materials are water resistant, and the glue isn't too hot. ) Also, after the glue gun heats up, turn down the heat. :)
