    "He he we make jokeee~" Katelyn is adorable 😭😭 also I did not expect this much Katelyn chaos and Evan control in this video 😂
  • @rhysswitzer
    I want “Classy glow-in-the-dark” to be my interior design philosophy.
  • Every time they expose their fake window light I start questioning everything 😂
  • @AirashiiTiayou
    I actually think that the yellow tint of the glow powder really added to the "real-ness" of the marble look, kinda making it seem more natural and not "pure".
  • @wave6553
    Evan: Making fun of Katelyn for her side table also being damaged. Katelyn: "Stop right there bucko"
  • @Pwnager29597
    I have a feeling that Evan's side table will need to be polished more often and eventually the two tables are going to be very different thicknesses
  • @dwale1860
    The "ow ow ow ow" in the resin time theme really caught me off guard 😆 I didn't know what to expect from the glow in the dark element but omg, stunning!
  • @MeredithHagan
    Okay but Evan’s idea to dirty pour with a blend of opaque and translucent white was damn brilliant. I would have never thought of something like that and now I have to try it.
  • @felixhenson9926
    "I think that having a matte surface will make it look more stone like" Evan says about marble, the stone most often seen presented glossy
  • @lucusloc
    I absolutely love how they lean into the "not that kind of channel!" joke. One of the best long running gags on YouTube. Plus I can watch it with my kid and he has zero idea.
  • @rtist9281
    Here’s a little tip — something that I’ve learned from my own experience working with resin: if you get just a little bit of resin on your fingers, instead of pulling out the rubbing alcohol or acetone , you can clean it up with hand sanitizer
  • @hazonku
    I cannot get over how annoyed su-purrr-visor Joob looked during the intro. "I am trying to enjoy MY bed, do your intro in the garage like usual." The pours came out SO good and the matte finish is PERFECT! I'm definitely going to have to try this now!
  • @mikewheeler9011
    Evan: sets up camera in the bedroom Katelyn: not that kind of channel
  • The slight yellow of the glow powder worked pretty well, because it helped cancel out the blue in the black powder dye, giving you more of a warm gray color. Color theory! Science! Well done!
  • @willb.383
    I think instead of glow pigment, I would have just added dim LED strip lighting under the resin piece. It would shine through the resin and be a nightlight you could turn off and on.
  • The film noir edit when Evan was explaining why his pour looks bad, that's so funny. Your editing is always so funny and inventive.
  • @angelinac3724
    Katelyn's editing is getting better and better and if it's not her chefs kiss. Also I would love to see them do a head and foot bored that matches
  • @mrscb5303
    I’m only 3 minutes in and I can’t stop smiling. Isn’t it just a Evan thing to do..don’t learn to be gentle with nice things…just make them harder to destroy 🤣🤣 I’m pretty sure my hubby would agree with him 😉. You two are awesome, ok gonna go see how it turns out 💚
  • @Gaijin-Chick
    They turned out sooooo good!!!! Please make a matching cat-sized one <3
