The Art of Experimentation: A Conversation Between Katelyn and Evan

In a unique and fascinating experiment, Katelyn and Evan poured resin into gloves filled with pigment to create intricate designs on their hands. The process was both creative and unpredictable, as the two artists worked together to push the boundaries of what is possible with this technique.

As they began the pour, Katelyn noted that "solid gray doesn't look nearly as good as the dirty pour gray." Evan agreed, stating that he thought his favorite element of the experiment was a small vein on one of their hands. Katelyn also appreciated the same feature, and the two shared a moment of excitement and discovery. However, the process wasn't without its challenges, as they struggled with the consistency of the resin.

"I don't know how I did it," Evan confessed, "Dang it, I just touched the little pile of gloves with resin hands, I was trying to keep these clean." Katelyn laughed at his admission, and the two joked about their fingers resembling alien hands. Despite the difficulties, they pressed on, determined to create something beautiful.

As they continued, Evan reserved a small amount of black pigment for further experimentation. He carefully poured it into the resin, creating intricate veins underneath that would show up in the next layer. However, this process was also fraught with risk, as he admitted that "it's like trying a new technique." Katelyn reassured him, saying "Maybe like a longer," and they worked together to achieve the desired effect.

In a surprising twist, Evan asked if he could test one of Katelyn's designs on his own hand. She agreed, and he carefully inserted a syringe into her black center bit. As he manipulated the resin, Katelyn wailed in surprise, but ultimately, their efforts paid off, and the experiment was deemed successful.

Their conversation took a somber turn when they realized that one of the designs had become too extreme. "That's weird," Evan said, "Okay, well hey, you know what? We'll let these cure and then we'll try our next layer." Katelyn interjected, saying "I don't know, it's not a good analogy," but they both agreed to move forward.

Throughout the experiment, Katelyn and Evan demonstrated their creativity, adaptability, and willingness to take risks. Their conversation was filled with laughter, excitement, and a deep appreciation for the process of experimentation. As they worked together, they pushed the boundaries of what is possible with resin pouring, creating unique and intricate designs that would be impossible to achieve without this technique.

The Experiment Continues

As they prepared to move on to their next layer, Katelyn and Evan couldn't help but feel a sense of accomplishment and excitement for what was to come. They had taken risks and pushed the boundaries of what is possible with resin pouring, and their results were truly unique.

"I don't know how I did it," Evan repeated, "Dang it, I just touched the little pile of gloves with resin hands, I was trying to keep these clean." Katelyn chuckled at his admission, and they both laughed about their fingers resembling alien hands. Despite the difficulties, they were determined to create something beautiful.

As they continued to work on their designs, Evan carefully added a small amount of color to one of Katelyn's pieces. "What expression?" he asked, marveling at the effect he had achieved. The music swelled, and for a moment, it seemed as though they were transported to another world.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: en(gentle music)KATELYN: Why are you setting upa camera and lightingin our bedroom?You know why, we'refilming the introfor today's video, remember?Oh yeah, heh, heh, heh.Ee hee hee.Hee hee hee.We make joke!(Evan laughs)Hey guys, we'reEvan and Katelyn,and today we'regonna be restoringsome furniture with resin.Why?Why?Because, especially I,have been tough on this.I wanna use furniture,drop things on 'em,keys, electronics, everything,and it's pained Katelynfor seven years.Okay, these arevery nice side tablethat we got as a resin-(laughs)As a wedding present, okay.And I was extremelycareful with mine.Like literally all I keepon mine is a lamp, my phone.Well, don't look at it.It's damaged.No, you wait formy story to end.(laughs)You wait for my story.All I would keepon it is the lamp,my phone and my water cup.I was extremely carefulbecause I noticed howscuffed up yours were.But we switched sides of the bedbecause your shoulder washurting, and we switched.And I ended up on Evan's tableand Evan ended up with my tableand it was too lateby the time I realizedthat he had scuffed upmy perfect clean table.So that, sir, is why bothof these look terrible!They are both you.This was more mine for longer.There's like dents.There's like physicaldents, not just scratches.You know what's adurable surface though?Resin.Resin.And especially whenyou're pouring itas thick is we're gonna pour it,you can just re-polish it foryears and years and years.It's future-proof.Yeah.It's smart.We figured, instead of justdoing solid white on topto mimic the look,we're gonna try to gofor a marble resin look,which we have done oncebefore on a small scale.But we do have a twist.We're gonna make themglow in the dark.But like...Classy.Like at classy glow in the dark.It shouldn't look likeanything weird in the daylight,but then when weturn off the light,maybe we have alittle bit of a glow?Yeah, so you canplace your phone,the pills you have on there.So that we can gentlyplace items on the surfacebecause we can seeit so much better.Yeah, I'll know whereit is, instead of just.(refrigerator crashes)(Evan laughs)As is often the case,we're gonna startwith some small-scale testsbefore we move on to ouractual expensive furniture.KATELYN: 'Cause I actuallyam a little worriedabout messing these up.No, we got this baby.How many resinprojects have we done?How many have we messed up?(whooshes)Good point.(romantic music)So we decided tosearch on YouTubefor DIY marble resin techniques.And we found this reallycringy couple that-I thought they were cute.Yeah, they were okay.That tested a whole bunch ofmarble techniques with resinand we decided we're notgonna use any of them.Theirs looks kind of like this,but I think we can do better.One thing we learnedwatching that videowas we really like layers.We like depth 'cause realstone can have that depthand that makes itlook really good.And we tried to create thatin our last marble video,all with one pour,and I think that thatwas a big struggle.So what we wanna test todayis different ways oflayering our resin.Yeah, another thing that I'm,did we talk about this inthe thing that we just filmedwhere we're gonna make it matte?No, we didn't talk aboutthat, I don't think so.I'm really excited about that!Stone can be glossy or matte,but resin is most of the time,glossy.Glossy.And I think thathaving a matte surface,will make it lookmore stone-like.But first, let's startwith our layering.Yeah, and I'm alreadygoing off the rails.(Evan laughs)I have a theory that just more,more and more and morelayers is even better.How many layers?(gasps) Our paint's gray.It's in pain, it broke.Oh no, oh no!Our paint!I'm gonna paint a layerunderneath the resinto give it depthon depth on depth.Will it make anydifference at all?And I'm gonna start outwith some light grayish.Oh no, that's, yeah,that's more like that.Wow, a little bit of blackreally just overwhelms white.Yeah, that's whatI'm more going for.And hopefully some bit of thiswill show through the resin.But I'm not sure.And I don't even really need itto be that detailedto some degree'cause there's gonna bea lot of variationand texture over it.I just want a dark imprint.So I think thatthat's good enough.In order to get the sides,we're gonna add rigid aluminumall the way aroundon all the edges.Do we need to filmyou doing this?I think, I think they see this.They know how tape works.We'll just go, (fingers snap)It's resin time.(masks crinkle)Ow.(Evan laughs)♪ Resin time ♪♪ Resin time ♪♪ Ow ow ow ow ♪♪ Resin time ♪Me and my glasses.(snazzy music)My glasses.So I'm gonna mix upfour different colors.Cloudy white, an opaque white,a gray and a reallystrong black.One drop of whitehere, maybe two, three.Let's see how pigmented this is.Honestly.KATELYN: That lookspretty pigmented.EVAN: Three drops,pretty pigmented,I think this is the opaque.I'm gonna have to be verycareful on this next oneand actually only do one drop.There we go.KATELYN: Yeah, it's translucent.Yeah, there we go.Which is what you want.Okay, cool.Black is really powerful.I'm just gonna puta drop on the table,grab some with a stickand then stir it in,oh my gosh, even just that.Oh, wow!KATELYN: I feellike that's actuallygonna be your dark black.EVAN: Oh, no, no,that looks nice.KATELYN: Okay, yeah, yeah.EVAN: That lookslike a nice gray.And then the black.I might just do...I want it to be prettyblack, so I'll do two drops.KATELYN: I missed all of this.EVAN: Yeah, yeah,see that is black.Here's the gray.Yeah, oh I see yougetting the syringe.You're gonna besuch a precise boy!Well, I am not thatprecise of a boy.I really have a hardtime with precision,so I'm gonna cheat.I don't know, maybeI'll do okay with this.But I want it to go allthe way in the corner.Oh yeah, this is a lot better.KATELYN: Than pouring it?EVAN: Than my lastattempts at this, yeah.Now, how many blackstreaks do I want?There's one, I'm gonna go two.Hmm, that's it.KATELYN: Cool.And then I'll do a gray.I think I can be a littlemore judicious with this.I think I'm gonna do it oneither side of the black.KATELYN: It's likea blending tone?Yes.A transition.Ooh, I'm gonna tryanother variable!Translucent white, opaquewhite in the same cup.Do a little bit ofa dirty pour here.Yeah, I like howthat turned out.You know what?I'm gonna go crazy.(playful trumpet music)Little bit of each.Oh, oh!Throw in some black.KATELYN: Oh!EVAN: Oh, I'm goingoff the rails.I'm gonna do in this cornerhere first, see how I like it.KATELYN: Oh, that's kinda nice.Just in terms of blending?EVAN: Oh, oh, I like that,I like that, doing it again.Ooh, I like that.Wow, all right, now I'm gonnado one without the black,but there'll probably still bea little bit of blackin there leftover.KATELYN: Yeah, andbecause this isn'tthe top layer of resin,it's cool to like experimentwith this underlayerthat'll be partially covered.This already looksreally cool though.Like this looks betterthan our marble poursfrom our last video.EVAN: And this is justlayer one, attempt one.Now, here's aninteresting thing.Do you see yourpaint underneath?How cool is that, Ididn't see it at all.I don't see it at all.Nothing!None at all.I think that what we needto do is the top layer,we need to make iteven more opaque,less drops of pigments.Oh you meaneven more translucent?Opposite.That's why I love you, you'reso good with your words.Thank you.The top layer moresee-through, less opaque.Yeah, I'm gonna do my layer now.Yay!EVAN: Tell me you'revision, Katelyn.It's very similar to yours.(snazzy music)It's same-same but different.I'm also gonna do grays,whites and blacks.EVAN: What a surprise.I know, but I'm gonna do ita little bit differently.I wanna have fullyopaque white on the sidesbecause I feel likefor this underlayer,what I'm realizingis maybe the contrastneeds to be a littlebit more differentto show up through the next one.So I'm just gonna be fullyopaque white on the sides,and in the middle, I'mgonna do a dirty pourlike you did with a mixtureof white, black, and gray.And we'll start there.I'm also gonna tryusing the black pigment.Just 'cause I feel likeit's the less overpowering.White.Gray.Black.EVAN: Nice looks good.Always aim for the gray first'cause if you make it too dark,it can be your black.The black, yeah.That's a nice gray, muchmore subtle than mine.KATELYN: Maybe I'll usesome of yours for the um...EVAN: Black?KATELYN: For the black-black.Oh my god.That's just like what wasalready on your stick!I know, oh my god!Wow, so powerful.You know, for comparison sake,I will do a similarangle of flow here.Also, because I just thinkthat diagonal looks bestand I'll start justdoing my opaque white.Here we go.Making a dirty cup.EVAN: All mixed together.Interesting.Maybe I should've mixedthat more in my cup.EVAN: Looks like a feather.You know, I'm not really tooworried about this layer.I still think it's cool.It's still pretty cool.But maybe I should'vemixed it a little bit more.Here's another one.EVAN: Interesting, right on top.One thing I thinkthat's interesting,you know, for the final one?Going over the same layeragain adds a lot of detailthat like could beinteresting or could be weird.Oh, I think that this ispretty ugly, honestly.I would never dothis for the top.EVAN: You know, for me,I committed every pour,doing a single pour across.I'm not being criticalof the design.(moans)I'm just.I'm not even trying, okay.I'm not trying to makethis look like marble,I'm just experimenting.This experi-Experimenting.Experimental lady.But you know, also,every marble is unique.(hopeful music)Every marble hasdifferent patterns.Sometimes it's all dark,sometimes it's all white,sometimes there's streaks,sometimes it's in grids.So every piece of marbleis unique and beautiful.I feel like you're tryingto make me feel betterbecause you don't like it.I'm not saying that I likeit, I think it's really ugly.I'm just kind of tryingto do stuff differentlythan I did last time,you know what I mean?So that I can learnwhat not to do.And also, I do want this tobe kind of higher contrastbecause it is gonna be.EVAN: Just barelyshowing underneath.KATELYN: Barely visible, yeah.I'm going in withsurprisingly little plan.I'm surprising myself, howlittle of a plan I have.I did a Katelyn pour andKatelyn's doing an Evan pour.Is it reverse day today?I don't know, I don't know.Pour a little bit moregray just to kind of like,I dunno, see.So here's the interesting thing,that solid gray doesn'tlook nearly as goodas the dirty pour gray.EVAN: It's looks kind of boring.KATELYN: This whole thingis like really ugly.EVAN: I think my favoriteelement of all of thisis this one vein right there.KATELYN: Me too.EVAN: Wow.I know.I like that.I don't know how I did it.Dang it, I just touchedthe little pile of gloveswith resin hands, I wastrying to keep these clean.(moans)I don't.Shame.Shame.Sorry, oh god,(quirky music)you could see all of them!I'm sorry environment,I'm sorry.(Evan laughs)Is this a double glove?No, I don't like doublegloving, you know I don't!My fingers.You know, it's fine, it's fine.It's fine, it's fine.I just need it for the heat gut.(Evan laughs)It's fine!You have like alien hands!It's fine.Just 'cause we didn'ttest this on yours.Will this be goodor will it be bad?I don't know.But for this underside,I feel like I didn't reallyhave too much to lose.And I might as welltry a new technique.Okay, that's interesting.I like it.I like it.I kinda like it.Now, I have one lastthing that I wanna test.I reserved a little bitof black pigment here.'Cause I wanna dosome veins underneaththat will maybe showup in the next layer?EVAN: Maybe.This is really hard'cause if you pour it in,you end up with like a blob.So that means youhave to work fast.Nope, didn't work.Didn't work at all.No!I just have a bunch of blobs.It looks like tadpoles.EVAN: Maybe like a longer.Oh, here we go.(Katelyn laughs)What if I don't tryto do it as a stream.Oh, here we go, thisis way more controlled.EVAN: Since we'reexperimenting on yours,I know that this is yours,but can I test one of those?I mean you can test thaton your top layer too'cause all this is experiment.No, mine looks good.(circus music)Excuse me.How dare you.But no, you wanna tryone, you can try one.Okay, he's goingfor the syringe.He's poking a stickin the syringe.He has a very intenselook on his face.(circus music intensifies)Wow, what expression.A long tube, wow,that's a nice corndog.Are you doing thison mine or yours?(music stops abruptly)I'll do it on yourblack center bit,'cause we know wecan blend that.KATELYN: Yeah.(circus music continues)(whooshes)EVAN: Oh, look at that.KATELYN: Oh.EVAN: Glorious.KATELYN: Okay, that's cool.(Evan laughs)So you lift it out.You wait for thestream to start.(Katelyn wails)Still works, still works.KATELYN: It stilldid work, yeah.It's risky, it's risky.It was risky.It's a high risk, high reward.You really need to loadit heavily, there you go.KATELYN: Okay, yes, yes, yes!EVAN: That's it.KATELYN: Wow.We have tried.But look at that.That's doing somethinginteresting on top.KATELYN: Oh, I don't like that.EVAN: I don't like that.Why, why?KATELYN: It's spreading so much!I did the same thingin both places.What is happening?Look at that!Why?Okay, that's weird.Man.High risk.High risk.It's so ugly now.(somber music)That's weird, okay,well hey, you know what?We'll let these cure and thenwe'll try our next layer.And that's the one where wehave to try a little bit harder.To make it look nice.It's a nice subtlepiece of makeupover these interesting bases.Okay.Where's the, whichlayer's the makeup?I got a little lostin your analogy.I don't know, it'snot a good analogy.Okay, we'll seeyou guys in a bit.Katelyn is actingvery suspicious.She said, \"Do not look\",and the expression in her facewas like a vindication and joy.Okay.Which made me think thatmine turned horribleand hers turned great,is that the truth?Yeah, yours looks really weird!It got really weird.What!What yours looks beautiful.KATELYN: All right, mine's okaybut yours did some funkystuff and I don't know whybecause our basicingredients were the same.Yours looks like you usedalcohol ink and you didn't!Yeah, somethinghappened with mine.Something very strange.(gasps)I think I have an idea of why.Why?What's the main difference?Think about the ingredient.I use the black pigment,you used black liquid.Yeah, I think that's it.How come this one didn't do it?Because okay, thisproves it to me.This proves it.(jazz music)This first one right here,the first one that I did,records will show that this was,was this the long-tube dip?Or was this?They were both tube dips.They were both tube dips?Oh, nevermind.(jazz music stops)This looks very resin-y, thislooks a lot more stone-ish.Yeah.I'm gonna switch to the.Black Pearl Ex.Pearl Ex, yeah.Wow!I know.Wow!I know.That was bad!I know.Listen y'all, thisis one of the reasonswhy we like resin so much andwe do so many resin projects.It's just an adventure.We're gonna do anotherexperiment on this level.We are gonna be trying twodifferent glow powders.One that's neutralwhite, one that's aqua.We didn't do glowpowder underneath 'causeonly the surface.I don't think it'll show up.Only the surface countsfor the glow powderand let's not waste it.Let's do it.Let's do it.Are you strugglingwith sad, boring food?(trumpet fanfare)Unfortunately, you can't makeeverything better with resin.You can't?(depressing music)No silly.But to get you outof your recipe rut,you can try today'ssponsor, HelloFresh,America's number one meal kit.(upbeat music)KATELYN: HelloFresh hasmore five-star recipesthan any other meal kit.And we can genuinely saythat some of our favorite,most frequently maderecipes, are from HelloFresh.EVAN: Plus, if you thinkpouring resin togetheris romantic, just waituntil you try cookinga delicious andeasy meal together.(romantic music)You can even get athree-course mealif you wanna be extra fancy.Extra fancy.Extra fancy.But what if your goalthis year is to be fit?Well, they haveextra healthy optionslike fit and wholesome recipes.So you can enjoy tastymeals without the worries.EVAN: Or maybe yourgoal is to save time.Good thing they have20-minute meal options.KATELYN: And no matter what,you can feel goodthat with HelloFresh,their pre-portioned ingredientsmean less prep for youand less wasted food.EVAN: Go to HelloFresh.comand use code EVANANDKATELYN16for up to 16 free mealsand three surprise gifts.KATELYN: That's tasty.All right, again, I'mgonna do somethingout of character, again.I'm just gonnapotentially do this allin one big dirty pour.Oh, okay, well whatdo you have here?EVAN: A little bit of glow.Here is the more opaque white.Here is the moretranslucent white.And then here is alittle bit of gray.And I'm just gonnakeep on layering these.KATELYN: Aah, okay, yeah.That makes sense, 'causewhen I did the dirty pourdown the middle, itwas so unbalanced'cause I didn't layer.One interesting thingwill be the glow powderis a little bit yellower.EVAN: Just a little stir.KATELYN: Okay.The glow powder is alittle bit yellower,so I'll be curious ifit shows up like this.Ooh.I am liking this.EVAN: Now, is it darkerthan I originally thoughtfor like this typeof marble, maybe?I wanna combine both whitesinto one with the glow.KATELYN: A littlemini dirty pour?I like that, I like that,I'm glad you did that.EVAN: All right, maybe Imight just leave it there,I don't know.KATELYN: Yeah.It's darker than I intended,yet, it looks good.I am going to blow torch it.I didn't worry about ittoo much on the first one.But we don't want bubbles.But you can seehow many bubbles,I think this is possiblybecause I mixed it upand mixed it up and mixed it up.Like a pour within apour within a pour.And then I'm so excited to seewhat you come up with for yours.I really hope minedoesn't change.I mean, we'll see.Hopefully it doesn't have thesame fate as your first one.So I'm gonna do somethingvery similar to you.Glow powder I'm not gonnaadd to the dirty pour.I actually wannado veins of glow.Mmm.To like concentrate it more?I feel like that mightshow up more, so yeah.That's gonna bereally interestingwhen we do the glow testat the end of all of this.KATELYN: I know.EVAN: Oh my gosh,I'm so excited.(electric guitar rumbles)Me too.I'm sorry, I shook the camera.I'm sorry, I'm sorry!(electric guitar rumbles)I'm gonna breakthe stabilizationfeature on our camera.KATELYN: Please don't.EVAN: Okay, soyou're just mixingall of the whites and the grays.And the gray, okay.(snazzy music)Does it matter doing it instreaks like this as opposed to?EVAN: I think so.KATELYN: I think so too.EVAN: If you look really close,you probably need a macro lens.There are white streaksgoing in that direction.Oh wow, yours islooking so classy!KATELYN: Thank you.EVAN: I really likethe subtle look.It's really cool looking.KATELYN: Okay, soI'm a little nervous.I can try reallyloading it up like that.And then doing.Are you gonna do streaks?KATELYN: Yeah, I'm doingthe veins with glow.EVAN: Oh I thought you werejust gonna pour it without,yeah, yeah, yeah, dothat, yeah, interesting.KATELYN: There's one.You can't really see much now.(jazz music)EVAN: Neat, yeahthat was a great one.That was an awesome vein.KATELYN: Am I going toomuch with the veins?I don't know, I'mhaving fun though.Kinda messed that oneup, but we'll see.Okay, that might be it.EVAN: That looks rocky.And for some reasonit looks kind oflike flaky kinda rock-likelook, I think it looks right.It could be that I added somuch glow powder to my mix.That it's like little specksof glow powder, I don't know.EVAN: I don't know.Oh wow, yours looks beautiful.KATELYN: Thank you.I don't know, I'mpreemptively calling this,but I have been very pleasedwith this whole process.And in some ways it'sbeen fairly forgiving.I know, it has been.I hope that thesestay looking prettyand don't completely mess upthe next time we see you guys.Me too, 'cause weknow what can happen.Yeah, we'll see.See you in a little bit.You guys won't believe whatthese look like overnight.The exact same.The exact same,they didn't changeit all this time.There's also less to change.Yeah, yeah, honestly, thislooks like the best marblewe've ever made.Mine is stuck.(laughs)Ta-da!Look at that!That totally looks like marble.Like, oh my gosh.It really does.So we've already learnedsome great lessonsfor the big pour, but I'mhonestly pretty excitedto see what theselook like in the dark.Yes!What works better?My glow veins oryour glow dirty pouror maybe they both work?Yeah.This is a weird thing,wait, wait, stop.Lean down towards it.Yeah, for your mic.KATELYN: Oh my mic?Wait, I don't understandwhat's happening.Is the flashlightmaking a noise?Like what are you listening?No, I heard...The glow making noise.What?Can you not hear that?Oh!(laughs)It's the flashlight!It's the flashlight!I was like.Okay wait,pause for a second.I was like, it's expanding!It's cracking!I thought somethingcrazy was happening.No there's just a rattlein the flashlight.(flashlight rattles)(elevator music)(light clicks)(jazz music)EVAN: Ooh!KATELYN: Interesting.EVAN: And there'scolor differences.KATELYN: I used theteal, you used the white.One thing I can say, is thewhite definitely seems brighter.I kind of like yours.EVAN: I kinda like mine too.KATELYN: I thought myveins would be really thin,but I think the poursI did spread out,so they're kind of fat.Whereas yours is justmore naturally integrated.EVAN: Now, it does look likean alien-like skin texture.It does, the glowbeing functionalis a little questionable.EVAN: I think it's neat.I mean it's kind of neat,kind of ugly, kinda neat.I don't think that itimpacts the look of itin any negative waywhen it's light out.So I think it kind ofadds something nice.And I think withthe matte finishthat we're gonna doon the final piece,I think it couldlook pretty cool.So I think I'm downto do the white.I'm down, if it looksa little alien-y,I mean it's glowin, it's glowing.Like what do we expect?Yeah.Let's get our side tables.(whimpers)(snazzy music)So we took the tape offof these test pieces.And one thing we realizedis that it's sticky.EVAN: It's really sticky.KATELYN: So we cameup with a solutionto solve the sticky issue.So what we're doing is acombination of blue tape,plastic sheeting and foil tape.So we're gonna blue tape theplastic sheeting on first.And this serves two purposes:One, it prevents the aluminumfoil from leaving residue,and it also provides a dropprotection for our dressersso that we don't spillresin all over the place.So, hopefully.Well, drop protectionon the outside,but also, leak protectionfrom the insidebecause what we knowfrom these tester pieces,also, is resin doesleak down the side.Yeah, just a little bit.It's a lot simpler when whatyou're building is raw woodand you can just ifthere's any mistakes,you just kind of.Sand it.Yeah, exactly.But when you're working withlike a laminate like this,you can't, you justcan't sand things off.You don't know what'sunderneath there.Probably particle board.Yeah, there's probablyparticle board.(laughs)And we don't like that.But like.We're, once again,trying something forthe very first time.Will it work?I hope so.Only one way to find out.How do you feel about sandingour nice, semi-nice dressers.On one, aah!No, this is thepoint of no return!(Evan laughs)Ugh, okay,As wrong as thisfeels emotionally,physically, this feels right.KATELYN: Like grippier?Yeah, like smooth andslick and then grippierso that the resin canget into those groovesand really adhere.So we're making this anice long-lasting piece.(sand paper scrapes)So we're just gonna finish thisand then we'll do the resin.Do one, do one, it's cathartic.Oh, no I was, okay.(sand paper scrapes)It's littlechalkboard-y, you know?It's worse pushing.Pulling is better.(Evan laughs)You're evil.So, we decided to simplifyhow many mixes we're pouring.Can you say better wordswhile I'm doing this?Yeah, we're simplifying it downto just doing a white,a gray and a blackfor this first layer.I don't think we need toget any fancier than thatbecause what we realizedis it's really forgiving.Like the second layercovers a lot of mistakes.Wee.So I've done abouttwo of those now.All right, now for the grayI'm gonna do a littlebit of the whiteand then just atiny bit of black.You can always addmore darkening.So I'm gonna be, not chaos Evan.I am gonna be, what's theopposite of chaos Evan?Reserved Evan.Reserved Evan.Katelyn.I'm wanna be Katelyn today.Love, what's yourimpression of me?Um...\"Hi love\".Okay, that's pretty good.Wow, simple.I think that somethingthat's very you,is being bothered by thingsout of place or something?But it's hard to doan impression by it'cause it's more of a vibethan anything you say or do.It's more like,\"Hey, love, thesescrews on the counter,do you know what these are for?\"(laughs)Like my subtle way of saying,why are these randomscrews on the counter?I'm sure there's a reason.All right, I'm gonna startwith a little bit of whitefor the base, alittle bit of white.A little bit of gray.Just a tiny amountof this dark black.And then some more whites.Layer it.EVAN: And then we'll seewhat that looks like.I think I'm just gonna.Ooh, I like that.KATELYN: I like that.EVAN: I love the detailin there, wow, yeah.I might just do a few of these.I don't like that shape,it looks like a wishbone.KATELYN: It's up to you, baby.EVAN: Okay, I'm liking it,but I do want some more dark.KATELYN: Yeah.EVAN: So I'm just gonnakeep on adding dirty pours.'Cause I like howthis is coming out.KATELYN: Mm-Hm.(groans)EVAN: Oh boy.KATELYN: Oh boy.That looks nice!EVAN: That looks nice.I think I'm just gonna staysafe with these diagonals.I think I'm evengonna do just like a.KATELYN: A little partial?Yeah, right there.Now I'm just gonnado some thin pores,just around, youknow what I mean?Yeah.Yeah.Yeah, this probablywill be just enough.Whoops, I dripped.KATELYN: No!EVAN: It'll just becomepart of the floorand make the floor stronger.(Evan laughs)All right, this islooking heckin' nice.Uh, uh, uh.(upbeat music)I'm liking it.KATELYN: But it aint overall, it looks really good.EVAN: Yeah, I'm like, wow!I can be like a lot moretransparent on the top layerthan I thought, 'cause I'mactually digging this vibea lot more than Ithought, honestly.Who knows if it'sgonna mess up later.What do you think, call it?KATELYN: Yeah, Ithink you're good.That's awesome!My turn.I'm so excited.So I'm gonna do basicallythe same thing as Evan.'Cause these are set.EVAN: Yeah, I meanthe main thingthat's gonna be interestingis what artistic flaresare you gonna add?What angle are yougoing to do things at?I don't know,you're wild Katelyn.Wild and crazy.No I'm not.I mean sometimes.Okay, okay.I think you're cool.I didn't say I'm not cool.(Evan laughs)Rude.I guess I kinda feel likeI should do like opposite,like mirrored angles, slightly.EVAN: That could be fun.Doing a dirty pour cup?Doing a dirty pourcup, you know.EVAN: It's a little white, alittle gray, a little black.KATELYN: Yeah, again, you know.EVAN: I mean, this is like,I think it works pretty wellOoo!I love it, it's great!ThanksI love it, looks great.I think it's great.Ooh.KATELYN: I'm going out, Idid a little outward vein.Who is she?Who is she?EVAN: DJ Katelyn mixingresin in the club.(deep club music)I'm a live mixer.Have we told them about yourDJ name?DJ soft paws.(Evan laughs)(deep club music)And I'm also a catin this scenario.EVAN: I just like keep onthinking about you as a DJ now.(deep club music)Spittin' live beats.No, I'm not spitting beats,'cause I'm not rapping.I need a rapper name too.Maybe people can submit,stupid names for me.Katelyn's rapper name?Yeah.I'm just gonna do a couplemore like little touches.But I think all inall, I'm pretty happywith how it turned out.Am I done? I might be done.Wow.I might be pretty good.Honestly, this is one ofthe more simple resinprojects we've done,even though it'slike so complex,it's also kinda simple in a way.I think that's why I'm likequestioning, am I done?I'm used to havingto do so much more,but no I think,I think I'm good.I'm gonna leave it.It's looking good.I'm excited for layer two.Me too.So the tables still look great.We've thought aboutpainting more veins on here,but honestly, I'm a 100%happy with how much I have,and I actually don't thinkI wanna add any more.I already got some fine lines.So, I think it's ready forthe white and clear layer.I think so.Okay.Putting it on this side.Sorry, you get banished.KATELYN: I can still be in it.(Evan laughs)Okay, what you got here?So I'm gonna doanother big dirty pour.Are you trying tobe in the frame?Yeah.I'm part of this scene.EVAN: Are you part of the team?All right, I'm gonnado a big, dirty pour.We have more opaque white,more transparent whites,the glow powder whichis looking very yellow.KATELYN: Yep.And we even have alittle bit of graythat we're gonna add in thereand I'm just gonna wing itlike we always do.KATELYN: Yup.EVAN: And not get too stressed.KATELYN: Like we never do.Like we never do.Want some of that glow.All right, I'm justgonna top you up now.KATELYN: Okay.EVAN: Ooh, I'm so gladI added that gray in.KATELYN: Looks nice.EVAN: Looks like someonepeed in the resin also.KATELYN: The yellow?EVAN: The yellow.Okay.KATELYN: It'll spread out.I wonder what design yourglow powder is gonna make?EVAN: I don't know.But it's already looking nice,you can still see thelayer underneath it.KATELYN: Yes.But it is nice and subtle.But I do see the streaks ofthe different whites on top.I don't know, I mightjust juj it a little bitwith the heat gun.Yeah, and then we'll popbubbles and then I get to go.EVAN: Wow, that looks nice!KATELYN: It does look nice.It looks really nice.EVAN: It looks moresubtle but rich and deep.KATELYN: Yes, be gone.Be gone bubbles.Be gone!Okay, nah, I'm doingthe same thing.(music fast forward)Okay.There's the yellow.EVAN: There's the yellow.KATELYN: The price you pay tomake your nightstands glow.EVAN: I think it'sgonna be cool.KATELYN: I hope so.EVAN: Or it could looklike an alien something.KATELYN: You know,at this point,feel like there's not too muchlike creative control I have,I'm at the whim,Of the resin.Of the resin.EVAN: Yeah.Kinda how it is whenyou do dirty pour.Will we ruin ournice side tables?EVAN: No!They're gonna look so nice.KATELYN: We'll findout at the end.Cool, baby!EVAN: Cool, baby.Very exciting.Yeah, we'll just dothe same thing on mine.We'll give it a little,(mimics sprayer).Pop the bubbles.Yeah, and then I think likewhen we see you guys again,it's gonna befinal montage time.Final montage time.Well, we have one last,very, very exciting step.Oh, yeah!Oh, I'm excited.Do you have resin?Okay.(Evan giggles)(playful music)You ready to unwrap these?Yes.I wanna do it ina dramatic reveal.Are you ready?Yes.(tape rips)Wow!EVAN: Reveal one of many.KATELYN: Actually, whatI'm most curious aboutare two things:One, how un-smooth is thisedge, it's pretty un-smooth.EVAN: Oh yeah.KATELYN: But two, what arethese sides gonna look like?Like how much work arewe gonna have to do?EVAN: That's what I'm mostexcited and nervous about.(tape rips)Hey!KATELYN: Actually, that'smuch cleaner than I feared.That's a lot cleanerthan our test pieces.EVAN: That's really great.It's because we did...The double tape.The double tape.BOTH: Yeah.EVAN: And it's not sticky.Okay, so maybe we don't evenhave to paint the sides?(gasp)That'd be great.I don't think we need to,because that wasmy biggest worry.Yeah, on the frontthere are stilla few little nicksand stuff like that.That's true, but paintinga few little touch-upson the nicks of the paint.EVAN: We can do that.That's much moresimple than trying to,I don't even know whatwe were gonna have to doif it leaked and was all, lumpy.Okay, I think this is one ofour best resin top methods ever.One of our cleanest edges yet.Yes.Everyone (applauds).Thank you for beingwith us on this journey.Thank you.Let's clean up these edgeswith a router real quick.And then we're gonnado the fun partthat I'm so excitedabout, oh my gosh.Okay, yeah, we'll cleanit up first though.Why don't we just like ripit and like you can rip yoursand I'll rip mine and like.Okay.(upbeat music)Well, actually, can'twe just leave this for,why am I removing this?Oh yeah.Can't I just leave it for theround over and the sanding?(upbeat music)Time for the new part.We're gonna sand the resin,which we've donebefore out of necessityto like sand down arough edge or something.But we wanna make thewhole thing matte.We have a whole bunchof super extra qualitysanding things ranging from 800to 2,500 grit.(romantic music)Ultra, ultra fine.So we're gonna dosome experimentationsand see which onelooks the best.Oh, are we?I thought we werejust gonna go for it.That makes sense.I mean, we could just...We could, I don't know.I'm so excited tosee this matte.(upbeat music)Look at this.Super glossy, so matte!So, it's so muchmore like stone.One more sanding and then it'stime for the final reveal.(upbeat music)(quirky music)They're done!This might be oneof the classiest,nicest things we've ever made.I agree.And I was a little worriedthat it might look cheesyor too fake, you know?'Cause we don'talways go for classy.Sometimes we go for cheesyand we're good at that.But like classyis more difficultand these just lookso freaking good.Well, I think that there'sanother thing about thisthat really shows like astrength of DIY projects.I made my idealpurported marble.And anyone who doesa project like this,if you want it darker or morestreaky or whatever you want,you wanna add some like littlesparkly flakes in there.(sparkles chime)Whatever!You can do that.Plus, they glow!Yeah, let's check that out!Oh you do it, I'm comfortable.EVAN: Yeah, all ofthese lights are fake.It's in the middle of the night.Yeah, the window is fake.EVAN: Everything is fake.(laughs)KATELYN: We're realEVAN: We're real.Are you?Are you real?Now...Whoa!It totally glows.It totally glows.It totally glows.Oh my gosh.That, like if I.Like, significantly.EVAN: I put my phone on there,I can clearly see theoutline of my phone.Yeah.I can easily reach overand pick up my phone orwhatever else is on here.Mainly the phone.(laughs)Bring back the lies.Are any of our windows real?You'll never know.You'll never know.Well, baby.What a journeythis has been, hun.I'm very proud of us,we did a good job.We did a good job.Hope you enjoyed the videoand look forward to seeingyou in the next one.Bye!Bye!EVAN: Yeah.Thank goodness though.Oh, I almost sneezed.EVAN: Oh, no.\n"
