HYYYPE
Katelyn you should make during Halloween a pumpkin will it resin intro cause every year it’s getting better
I legit just ordered the shirt
NO RESIN TIME!!!😡
@@Tomato_Tamato de hecc
If I put my fresh relationship in resin, will it preserve it?
I mean maybe but you may have to dehydrate it
No
Yes, but it will never grow
It'll be like the first pumpkin they put in resin
@@Pope_Pandanot Francis 😭
Please make a sassy Shirt with "Resin would never"
Omg we need this right now Katelyn
Or one that says "Expect the bulge" but actually maybe not💀
@@taylorwalker7417 They're not that type of channel...maybe?
I’d buy this one ! Resin would never
With “but it’s all resin” on the back 😂
Flower preservationist here! Let the rose sit in silica gel for a week to fully dry out. The centers of roses are so dense, you have to spread the layers in the centers to let the silica get in. I use a chopstick. The stick method might work for getting the resin all the way in too. Aside from sitting the whole thing on the vibrator to let the air out. (yes I typed this out in the start and am still typing after the "could have done dried" comment lol) on the flip side, I'm so excited to see this! I haven't been brave enough to waste money on this experiment 😂
Came to the comments to find this!! Best way to preserve the shape and color of the flowers is to dry them in silica gel crystals for sure :))
pspspspsps *SPEND* money, SPEND; XD
i wonder if maybe this would also assist with the yearly pumpkin preservation?
You dont have to dry them. I coat them in resin to seal them. I just paint it on and let it cure overnight, then i can put them in my pour. I have piecrs more then 6 years old and flowers look bright and fresh as they day they were cut. And they are not fragile like dried flowers are.
@coolguy-wx6qv
They tried using silica alongside salt with their second pumpkin and the silica didn't do anything (while the salt made the poor guy all wrinkly). Idk if there's a stronger type of silica that would work
I like how Total boat also gets to discover the limits of their products via your projects
whenever they need to quality check something without being suspicious they ask evan and katelyn if they want to be sponsored
An excellent installation to the "Will It Rot?" section of Evan and Katelyn
Yeah and they really need to look into anaerobic decomposition, things don't need air to rot.
@@LifeLostSoul I've commented on this a couple times, there's a reason when people encase insects and such in resin they desiccate them first. It isn't hard to find that information, I think Evan and Katelyn are fully aware that all these things are going to rot, but they want to show exactly what happens. I watch knowing it will rot, but it is interesting to see just how it does. And then there's still surprises, like the resin expanding enough to break the glass! Resin usually shrinks.
@@SnowFox102 okay but have they ever acknowledged any of em? Because they normally bring up if things have been mentioned in comments and will try to give an explanation for why the thing happened the way it does, especially if it goes wrong. Plus anaerobic decomposition normally equals gross soup and I feel like they would think "gross soup" would be fun to say over and over.
Also when they did attempt to dry out the pumpkins they kept them in plastic bags, trapping the moisture and also creating an anaerobic environment. So I'm not sure they fully understand decomposition based on this.
But they should try for a full mummification or embalming process. That would be very Halloweeny.
Also I'm sus that the glass break started with the temperature changes while the resin was curing going for ice cold to resin hot and had less to do with expansion... Those glass domes also break really easily
@@LifeLostSoul Yes that pumpkin with salt in a bag without any way for liquid to go out 🤮
But if glass glass was broken when they removed it from Pascal they would have noticed. Glass is ok with temperature change the issue is when it happens too fast.
I think it's because of the gas being released by the flower iust expands the volume of the resin not much but since there is no room between glass and resin it's creating a slight pressure on the glass and slight pressure over days is enough to crack it.
Did you mean: "addition"
The reason that the rose looks like that is because the petals are hydrophobic. That is a layer of air making it look frosted. You can see it a bit on the stem, too, but that is a bit different, and likely due to a waxy substance that is naturally on the stem. I'm not certain, but there is likely some kind of chemical treatment you can apply to the petals to remove the hydrophobic nature.
damn thats messed up. let water get married 😠😠😠
@@despacitojones5297Ok, dad. 🙄😂
that is really interesting
interesting!
Maybe hairspray?
the beauty and the beast rose but make it resin is such a cool idea tbh! i lowkey want to see you guys make resin "glass slippers" lol, could even do 2 versions, one crystal clear and the other with glitter for maximum sparkle magic!
Ooo that would be fun!
I had an official Cinderella mini "glass slipper" necklace as a child, which I'm pretty sure was made from resin (with a metal top to the slipper part to connect it to the chain)
with some quick image searching, As per the internet, it was from Avon
As someone who's worked with roses in a sale setting, they are SO sensitive to changes in temp, getting them too hot or cold can wilt them and have the petals brown faster, so I was dying when I considered how hot resin gets and then they iced it! A dried flower might be sturdier since the water wouldn't have to expand and contract in the cells as much, causing less damage? Hmm haha might have to do a part two on that
My cousin's kid has made a good bit from her side business of preserving dried flowers in resin, like whole bouquets. It started as an offshoot from her wedding photography business, but it's really grown. And though I can say that while flowers that stand up to drying better do better in resin too, she has gotten some very nice results with roses.
Peter Brown did a rose resin experiment a few years ago, I think he did a few trials actually I'd go check it out if u have a chance. He's got some epic projects too
the "inevitable bulge" is a great band name
Or a name for a maternity clothing brand 😂
budgy smugglers new slogan
you did the "we have technology" but didnt do "careful spongebob" when putting it in the chamber. missed opportunity 🤣
haha we should have!
As a man in my 40s I can’t believe I have to say this…
needs more sparkles ✨
The rubber chicken on the pressure chamber is a perfect example of how these two are so genuinely meant for each other.
5:45 - Sarcastically saying "Professionals" while using Comic Sans, is a a nice extra layer touch. :P
Katelyn : did you almost drop an ice cube in the resin??
Evan: hahah noooooo😏
Also Katelyn: I saw you almost drop an ice cube in the resin
Also Evan: give look of chaos* 6:50
Katelyn literally ten seconds later: drops ice cube in resin*
Laughing so hard at thiiisss she gave him so much stink 🤣
I choked on my water omg lmao twas karma
I had to watch this three times 😂
I really should have seen this coming
Omg I’m crying they commented @@EvanAndKatelyn
You should make a keyboard where all the key caps are made of silicone. It would be so jiggly and satisfying.
I feel like that would be a nightmare to type on but I also really want to see it 😂
Lol Katelyn's foreshadowing kills me every time
Can you make a resin fish tank with 3D printed fish?
That would be so cute for the background. With lighting in the background to make the colors pop.
Oh and they could bust out their glow in the dark plants for it too!
With resin fish! 🐟🐠
yessss this would be so cool! they should do jellyfish and corals and stuff
omg that sounds SO cute
Seeing a lil markiplier pop in on one of my evan and katelyn videos might just be the highlight of my year. 3 of some of my favorite creators I thought could never show up together ever I was very suprised !
Anyway, I dont really comment very often but you guys are amazing, thank you for doing what you do. You keep me as an artist inspired after art school when I feel rather unmotivated. I love you guys ❤
thank you so much!
Yeah I loved the lil markiplier too y'alls content just gets more and more amazing each and every video!
Ah, how I wish they saw some of Peter Brown's videos and mentioned him, as that man has mastered the "Rose In Resin" technique...
Edit: Also, he's a fellow Resin-ator
@@calbertviviersSend all the resin using TH-camrs to the Resination!
@calbertviviers lmao, resin-ator, that's perfect. Peter Brown is really great though- I especially love the toilet paper one he did, back at the beginning of the pandemic
evans 3d modeling skills are genuinely so impressive and under appreciated!!! The effort it takes to get those measurements as correct as he does is crazy!!!!
Isn’t that right pascal
EVAN: SLAPS AGGRESSIVELY
No dance party! We have you on cameras!
I really like the way there's kind of a ghost rose being left in the resin as it wilts
🤔 What if someone encased it like this but let it wilt/decay in order to remove all plant mater, then replaced it w/ clear, glittered, or properly colored resin. Even using clear would show as there would still be the inevitable seam between pours. Just have to get all the old rose out.
In the end were the glass cracks, I believe that is actually always a risk when pouring resin into glass. Resin doesn't truly hold its shape while curing (especially such large pours), so when put in something as brittle as glass there is a risk of breakage. There is special types of resin that are made for pouring into glass, once they're cured they have a bit of a squish to it which is the same property that makes it so it won't break glass
All commercials should be Evan and Katlyn Commercials. ❤❤❤
I feel like the crack makes it look cooler, it adds to the aesthetic
Right?! It’s even more gothic and dark fantasy now
*narrator voice*
Once upon a time there was a Princess and a Prince. Their families promised then to each other as symbol of kingdoms alliance.
Prince fell madly in love with a Princess from the first sight. He was sure that she reciprocated his feelings, so he prepred a specjal gift. He gave her magic, red rose in glass dome. 'It's representation of my love. As long as I love, the rose will be ethernal.' he said. Princess gracefully accepted the gift and they relationship became flurishing. At least that's what the Prince thought.
However one day, when he tried to make a suprise visitation, he saw his beloved Princess in embrance of other person. He saw in her eyes greater amounts of passion and love, than she ever gave him. He understood that she never loved him and his heart broke into pieces. He walk away without a word and his heart became ice cold.
Soon after Prince's father fall to illness and gave up his titule to his son. Now as a King, Prince call off the engagement and demanded to give back his specjal gift. They agreed and Princess arived in King's kingdom with the rose.
And that their last meeting. No words exchanged. No caught stares. Just returne of one black rose with frost on her petals and crack on the dome.
King fell to the abyss of apathy, while Princess was celebrating marryaging her loved one.
Will there ever be someone able to melt down the frozen heart and turn the rose back to passioned red...?
Discover it in this story [the end]
@@lilik7323this is beautiful
Makes it dramatic.
If y’all ever try this again, what about making a mold of the glass dome and casting in that? That way you can have the handle top shape without the post-cure bulge cracking anything. Not like the dome is removable anyway 🤷
I think that would be a better end product now that we know the glass will crack!
@@EvanAndKatelynI was wondering if the glass could be carefully cracked and removed from the current one.
@EvanAndKatelyn you should dry the rose in silica gel first, it preserves the colour and shape while removing excess moisture.
One idea to help stop the rot could be to apply uv resin on the rose using a paint brush, curing it, and then casting the full rose in resin. I think it would help get rid of the air bubbles in the crevices too.
I really liked this one b/c I've had some real issues preserving roses (100% failure rate). And while this one is still a bit of a fail (the color change) it's not a bad result. At all! In fact I kinda like it better. Also, the glass cracking is another lesson learned. Perhaps next time use a plastic dome and then remove it after curing. The resin itself will be the dome. Over all, you got a real nice result.
Between the finger-ice bath here and Safiya's full-arm candle dips, poor Evan is getting the worst "Sauna-polar plunge" experience ever!
The moment the chicken flew off I died. 😂 Thank you so much for this.
Catching covid was the perfect excuse to not work and just binge all your videos again. You guys have come such a long way and I love everything you guys do.
We use to dip the roses in hairspray to preserve them. If you ever try this again try it with hairspray.
I love how the "words are hard" floral design could straight up be a test for color blindness :D Its cute though, can't distinguish the colors, but love the design
Evan’s huge smile whenever he does something wrong is cute.
Commander Keen! I haven't seen that in years. Dos games were so much fun, even though I was pretty bad at it.
Your version turned out WAY BETTER than the Disney one!
Guys that's a moldy rose....
Evan’s David Attenborough impression is shockingly good
haven't finished watching but so worried about thermal shock on the glass with the ice and the resin 😂
I wonder if that contributed to the glass breaking? 🤔
def missed it
8:17 you guys.... "CNC Music Factory" was RIGHT THERE!!!!
The cracked glass adds to the gothic magic look, makes it look even more tied to a curse.
17:36 smoke is because of the rapid depressurization
Love your videos by the way
Thanks, I was wondering!
Please hang dry a rose in a dark and cool place for a couple of weeks and then put it in resin. It should work much better that way. Also, I missed your resin song this time, such a good song. I'm so excited to see what you do next!
They said they wanted to do it fresh as a challenge to see what happened
they could potentially spread the rose pedals and maybe use the uv resin to get into the deep crevasses of the rose. theres going to be a lot of "wetness" which probs helped with the bulging and cracking but spreading the rose could release a lot during the chamber
That is why they had so many problems. No "Resin Time" song!
Absolutely loved that it turned purple!! Looked stunning purple tbh!
I think this video deserves a redo. I think you should try again with a dried rose and see if you can make it better. I believe in yall!!❤❤❤
Resin has a higher coefficient of expansion than glass. It's literally hatching. I filled a very heavy-duty glass vase (about the same size as your flower dome, but with 1/2" thick glass walls) and over the next 6 months all 4 sides cracked and split apart.
YOU DIDN’T DO RESIN TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
NOOOO MY FAV PART 😢😢😢
@@isabellacervantessmith8652 like right!
I know right
omg true i just realized, im unsubscribing (im not)
Ok?
I would love to see you guys make a Bob Ross toilet seat!
I would love that!
Maybe you’d have to make a silicone mold of the glass so that you can pour the resin into and have a removable cloche to avoid the bulge 🤣 oooo maybe a cloche with a handle too like in the movie!
I make memorials and resin work for a living,next time you try,grab a bag of silica sand and cover the rose for 2 weeks. It looks as beautiful,keeps color and will not rot or change in resin. Dipping it in resin first helps with bubbles. Also,look into borax crystals. I apply mod Podge or adhesive spray and dip the dried rose then let it dry. After about 20 mins,you suspend it in the boiling borax and it crystalizes. I put them in books,shadow boxes,orbs,so much!!! Next,I can tell you how to preserve mushrooms! They're so pretty in resin.
Interestingly enough, I think they actually attempted drying out one of their pumpkin preservation attempts? Though it was with salt, so I'm not sure how much of a difference that makes, on top of it being more uh, "juicy" than a flower.
Also on the mushrooms, is that also for memorial stuff or just a passion project?
Bc either way I'd love to hear that, given how much my mom likes mushrooms!
Both. It was a passion project turned full business. It took 3.5 years of trial and error but I figured out the species able to preserve and the ones that didn't. I tried 50 different ways but I use silica sand for them as well and they hold form. They have to dry a while because most mushrooms are made of so much water. I have tried the microwave and oven methods,even knowing they'd fail but I wanted to try. Evan and Katelyn don't stop experimenting till they get what they want so I wanted to offer some tipsaybe they'd try them. I love watching them and when they have projects turn out,they're so adorably excited. I wanted to help. If you're ever curious,look me up. I do have a channel but not a lot on it yet. I had a series of passings but will be uploading all tutorials on everything I make. I am a curious person and like to stretch the boundaries as far as I can just to see what I'm capable of. I'm happy to help anytime,give you any tips or tricks I've learned,I definitely not gatekeep. There's room for everyone's art and I believe the world needs it ❤️❤️❤️ Memorial pieces became a main thing because I made so many for family that it turned it to part of the business. I have cremains and things but mostly funeral flowers so I wanted them to be perfect. It's all I had left. So,I tried till I got it right
“Is this even a video? Is this too easy?”
😂
So a tip I've seen from other videos is to "flood" the rose with resin so that you minimize bubbles in between the petals, though with your pressure pot I'm not sure if it will make a difference or not? Worth a try though if you ever want to try again ^-^
By far one of my most favorite channels, but also my most favorite influencer couple. ❤ y’all are entertaining and a riot. Keep it up!
17:57 Because there was some moisture in the chamber from the ice probably, but when you dumped the pressure quickly it causes that cloud. You can see the same with a syringe or the old twisting a cheap water bottle and popping the cap off.
The sudden change of pressure in the pressure pot acted as a vacuum. Causing instantaneous boiling of the water in the pot, hence the water vapor when the pressure pot was opened.
This is cool; I've been wanting to try this type of thing with fresh flowers for a while. But I was thinking about first taking advantage of the way flower cuttings still absorb water to try keeping them in a preservative solution for a bit first to see if it would prevent rotting and the breakdown of the molecules giving it color. Something like EDTA or an EDTA/NaCl/DMSO solution would be easy to try.
Is that a type of embalming fluid??? Because if not, that’s be interesting too
Ok, i laughed WAY too hard at the chicken depressurization sound dampener. I'm in tears. 😂🤣
I've not tried it myself, but I've heard that if you coat the thing being dipped into a thin layer of resin and allow it to cure, it will maintain most of its appearance.
Can I just say I have always loved the editing job you guys do? It’s clean and looks so amazing and fun!
Your ads are so amazing
Never stop being so awesome
ikr :3
They're the best ❤
I just want to heavily thank you guys, I’ve had almost ridiculous sleep issues and watching your uncut streams idk just your voices have given me so much comfort that I can now literally fall asleep with your voices and it’s been so so beautiful to hear your voices talking in my naps. It sounds like I’m calling you guys boring enough to put me to sleep but no 😂😂😂 it’s actually just so comforting to watch you guys that I fall asleep like a baby 😭❤️
Dude that penguin made me laugh more than it should’ve 😂
That was a very funny Sir David Attenborough skit.
7:36
Well its good to see the Black Hole Table is doing...table things...
So I have worked with pressure pot for years and I can tell you the reason it had some mist is from the rapid change in pressure when you had the chicken fly off. That rapid decompression made a change in temperature which made the mist. I hope that helped!
Watching this channel I've gone from envious of Evan and Katelyn's relationship, to being in a long distance relationship for almost two years, still very envious of Evan and Katelyn's relationship, to moving to New Zealand to open future career opportunities and to be with my partner, to having to move in with my partner to satisfy New Zealand's strict and difficult visa, work, and immigration laws. We're looking at rentals in town now, and can I just say - HAHHAHAHAEHEHEHEH OH MY GOODDDDD WE'RE GOING TO HAVE OUR OWN ARTS AND CRAFTS ROOM!!! Life is really difficult right now and I've never been this poor but my first check from my job comes in this afternoon and I've never loved a place or a person so much. I'm so happy and so excited. I hope that I get to do silly artsy shenanigans like this with my partner! It's been a dream of mine for years, especially when watching this channel
Its resin time, resin time, do do do do resin time!!!!
I love how extra meme-y the editing on this video is, its just so fun
8:17 CNC MUSIC FACTORY!
If you try this again I think using all resin in a mold for the "glass" is the better option also if you want more time before the rose starts rotting leave as much of the stem as you can reasonable fit in the pressure pot and cap the cut edge off like they do for bouquets! You will give yourself a little more time that way. I don't know how to stop the color change from happening but saw some other people had ideas you could try. Over all this craft came out really well
BIRTHDAY VIDEO!!! it is my birthday today and this is the best! I have been watching you guys for years!
Happy Birthday!!
Happy birthday!!
Hope you have a great birthday!
Happy bday, have an amazing night
The chicken scream sounds almost exactly like an elk call 😂
So glad we didn't have to wait until next Halloween to see you try to preserve something in resin! I never get tired of these! But I have a slight suspicion that it may just never work out...
That loud squeaky sound scared my poor kitty! He was like what is that!!!!
The editing of this video is so top notch with the memes and sound effects
Chef's kiss 👌
That sounds like Pumkin Series 2.0 already... And I'm here for it 😂
If you ever redo this i would recommend using a spray preserver. They make some specific for flowers.
I loved when Peter Brown tried this and i loved your version, too! I think trying one of those "forever" roses could be cool!
Ooo if the glass is cracking, does that mean that the resin will retain the glass dome shape if all the glass breaks off?
It should. As the glass could act as a mold for the resin.
I love that the video starts with something already gone wrong 😂
What an honest, brilliant video! Thanks for making it!
honestly i think the crack kinda adds the overall like dark decaying rose vibe, i think it looks super cool and would be an awesome live action beauty and the beast prop
Bro this is the craziest Buy v Diy yet
I also love the Mark cameos
I love the chaos of this channel this couple is one of my favorite creators
the rubber chicken antics makes me laugh so much 😂
I think this is a perfect craft to re-visit sometime in the future, the result is lovely but I would really love to see a more alive version of the rose as well and maybe even see if the post cure bulge can be solved in some way ^^
1:37 MARKIPLIER MENTIONED
I absolutely love the look of dead flowers. Putting a full dead flower in resin would be so beautiful (idk if that happens in vid yet)
The cracking glass will make it look even more grungy and gothic 👌 getting better as it ages
Watching Evan and Katelyn while crocheting >>>>
Yoooo they posted omg this is legit gunna cure my depression for the next week
Have you thought about seeing how freeze dried stuff holds up to resin, I've seen roses freeze dried and they last about a year
That's a great idea!
Pascal’s new muffling device had me in *TEARS* 😂
Love what you did! Would love to see if you would please try again with preserving the rose in Silica Gel first!
Honestly though, the crack on the glass makes it a bit more magical like the magic in the rose is expanding and looks more old and weathered. It looks so coooool……
It definitely looks so cool!! Can't wait for another update
Something I had suggested years ago from someone who made these was to sit them in glycerine first to prevent them from rotting then apply the resin. You can also add some dye to the glycerine and it will give the petals a variegated appearance as it's soaked up.
I'm enjoying all these memes they added
I love you pressure pot chicken 🥹
13:27 “Wait… really?” “…Yes!” That was way too funny to me lmao
If I could I would double like your videos, awesome content, thank you.
Also a suggestion:
When a flower or foliage is'not absolutely fresh, it has lost some of the original water content of the cell structure. This results in a shrinkage of the original cellstructure. The use of isopropyl alcohol is preferred, because it very rapidly fills out the cell structure of the fresh specimen.
Put them in alcohol and then in resin.
