This reminds me of the seasoning and aquarium product mountainous volcano of smells that quickly awakened me. It was in the mid 90s, when my small children woke up before me one weekend. Probably a bit over a hundred bucks worth of seasoning and fish aquarium products. I cant imagine how much it would cost today 🤪. Had to air out the whole house.

(No wild eggs should be disturbed) just a personal disclaimer as I only have captive bread turtles, never remove a turtle from the wild. They aren't a good pet for children. Lots of work.

Something about the teamwork between you and Nicole is heartwarming to me. ❤

Color some (a lot) of eggs with dye and put the broken shell pieces in resin, and turn that into an egg. This was a very cool project. I look forward to more.

I was just thinking, _use a rotary cutter!_ A rotary fabric cutter could take on a few layers of fabric at a time! Just do squares, and let the lathe round it out... Even rolling the corners off with a cutter would make octagons, which for the purpose, is close enough to a circle.

What about small colored spools of thread? Or maybe a ton snippets of lace or yarn? Makes me want to get a lathe and try it myself.

You should market it as a quilters egg. So many quilters have piles of fabric, it would be a nice piece to use as a quilters award or just a nice gift to a quilter to use on their design boards as a weight.

I'd love to see layers of make-up - you could even use old stuff friends and family are planning to throw away to make it an up-cycled product! It's also a cheap way to colour the egg :)

This egg made me think about the Fabergé eggs. This egg should be in that collection!!!

I think a collection of items a mother/parent keeps of their child would be an incredibile keesake. Baby clothes, recieving blankets, a few treasures buried, pacifier, not to sound gross- but we all keep their baby teeth- lock of hair, etc. I was able to have one child and it makes letting go of her items difficult. I can't be the only one. If you have something small and so special, beautifully crafted, I think parting with other items could be easier. Just a thought. I loved watching your process. I'll be checking out your etsy shop! Thanks

your channel is so fun and wholesome, I love it so much! I've been wanting to get into resin casting for a while now so I'm getting some great motivation from your projects. my first thought for ideas about something to cast were stained glass, screws or even broken circuitboards, but my worry with that is if you're turning it on a lathe, you wouldn't want those things to chip off while you're working and hurt you. my next thought was something with coffee beans or tea leaves, which would smell amazing, but it might also be pretty expensive. I subscribed and I usually check my feed every day. can't wait to see what else you put out!

It would be cool to see an egg made of crayon in rainbow layers, or maybe crayon shavings or colored pencil shavings. Also, Micah powder that isn’t mixed in at all would be interesting.

As a seamstress who has chickens, this makes me so happy! 😍

Have you tried turning a book. Glue all the pages together then turn on your lathe. Hmm food for thought.

The green fabric that had a fold in…….😮 I literally cannot sleep now!!!!

You should try casting egg shells and turning that into an egg. Maybe even dye the shells first? Could be a fun experiment. Good stuff looking forward to this series.
