This is incredible! I would love to be this good at something… still trying to find what my really good at but I still have plenty of time to find what I love! I just made a huge paper mache mask for my Halloween costume and I love it so much :)
This is exactly what I need for KY daughters new fairy garden themed room. I'm wanting it to look like a real life fairy garden in her room. This would be perfect. I wish I could hire you to come make one :) Amazing job!!
@@karawalkerdesigns167 keep me informed on were you find if u dont mind , I love your ideas and creativity, keep it up I've got my friends that love going all out for Halloween watching ur videos , if you come up with Christmas stuff love to see it !!
Are there any good alternatives to styroplast that aren't super expensive? One thing I like to use is paper mache clay by ultimate paper mache here on youtube. It isn't outdoor/weather proof I don't think, so if anyone knows any alternatives, perhaps one we could mix up ourselves to save some of the cost...
They look adorable. Are these for your home or do you do them for a Client? If you own home you must have the most fantastic house in the neighborhood. 🍄🍄🎃🍄
@karawalkerdesigns167 what was the clay likestuff you put on by hand? Was THAT the styroplast? Or the stuff you painted on over it? I'm making an inspired version of your mushrooms out of food grade plastic barrels that will be nesting boxes for my pet geese. Lol. So they have to be sturdy and I'm loving the look/texture that mixture gave.
@@kathryncipperly137 It was EasySand 20 joint compound. Then she used the sponge to smooth it out. That doubled as a surface to bond the warts to, which were made out of the joint compound as well. Let dry and then coat with Styroplast. You wouldn't need the joint compound if you weren't doing the warts.
So cool to watch. Thank you for sharing. What kind of spray paint did you use before airbrush? And just to confirm, you coated it with styroplast twice right? Once with hand, second with pouring. Did you add more water to styroplast the second time?
Hi Kara, love your work. Can you tell me the type of caulking glue you use. I'm not thrilled with super 77. Also your mushrooms are being used in a Facebook ad scam. $39.00 each just an fyi.
Kara, you have all the cool tools! I especially love how you cut the pvc channel, I will totally use that idea. So much easier!
I LOVE THESE GIANT MUSHROOMS! I'M JEALOUS OF YOUR TALENT.
What a beautiful gift you have, love your work thank you for sharing.

You’re brilliant!! Someday I’ll have the space to play like this. For now I’ll learn. Thanks for teaching!
Great Job!!!

Hi Kara!! this is great I need some of those Foam tools !!
Loved watching your process!
where do you get blocks of styrofoam that big
Love your work ❤️
Fantastic awesome 🤩 great job, love your pumpkin 🎃 and the new mega 🍄 - greets from Munich, 〽️ario
I would love to know were you get your blocks of foam at cause I would love to try one of your monster pumpkins for this years Halloween projects ??
I used to get my foam blocks from LA Foam but they no longer sell them 😣 I need to find a new supplier

Phenomenal!!! So fun to watch it all in timelapse.
Gyönyörű a munkája köszönöm szépen csak szeretem volna látni hogyan teszi rá a tetejét és hogy mire való az a cső a közepébe
What kind of glue was loaded into the caulking gun?
I'm also wondering this. I've used Silicon but it is problematic when it ends up where carving needs to happen.
Beautiful, where I can see the results? 😊
You need to charge more for these... this is so much work.
How much does she charge?

Wow! This isso cool! What's stuff you put on the styrofoam directly? It looks like a watery clay or something?
Can't believe you're breathing all that dust and fumes.
So incredible! I am in awe of your work! I hope you don’t mind, I shared this video in a Facebook group.
Like an Alice in wonderland feel to it. Oh how I love thee
Thank you for making this!!! Could you please share where can I buy the foam in blocks? Thank you
Thanks for sharing your process! Cool to see all your tools and techniques. What was the putty you used to fill the hard edges? Epoxy clay?
I used quick setting dry wall mud & EZ Karve epoxy clay
I want to make these! How expensive did it all end up being?
Hey Kara, love your work! Thanks for sharing your process. Was that a hardcoat you painted/poured on? What do you use? ☺️
I coated the mushrooms with Styroplast. A 2 part epoxy coating this is smooth like plastic which gives a more realistic look
Did you thin out the styroplast for the underside of the mushroom?
They look adorable. Are these for your home or do you do them for a Client? If you own home you must have the most fantastic house in the neighborhood. 🍄🍄🎃🍄
where do you find the foam in that size?
I love them. What did you coat them with and would they last long outdoors?
Only I have this tiny back yard and I want to make it kinda magic
Hi, I used Styroplast by Hotwire Foam Factory. Yes they are exterior rated

Is it bad I want to make these and sit on the top

Nice!
What glue did you use that didn’t interfere with the hot knife?
(And what was that paste you coated the caps in?)
The glue was Foam Fusion by Hotwire Foam Factory. It was coated in Styroplast by Hotwire as well
@@karawalkerdesigns167 Excellent. Thanks! They came out real nice! A commission for someones garden/park, or just home deco? 😊
Styroplast contains isocyonates which can kill you. Correct PPE would be an air fed mask, suit, gloves and eye protection...
how strong is the coating of ez carve + styroplast? if you dropped a hammer on it, would it leave a dent?
It’s not as strong as fiberglass. A hammer dropped on most coatings will leave a mark
hello just wondering how you glued your styrofoam together ?
was ti plaster and then a sealent over the plaster ?
When are you going to put a new videos?
What kind of foam is that
Hi, it’s white insulation foam
Now THAT is a mushroom that I can get under.
Can I buy one?
Or these for sale. 😍
These were made for a show on APPLE TV but I do sell large mushrooms in my shop. karawalkerdesigns.com
Love love love
The structure is absolutely beautiful!! Unfortunately, the paint job does not compliment your hard work.
Someone is using your work to scam people
Hi, i think someone is using your video to scam people into buying these on fb.
your mushroom is covered with warts, therefore children should run away from such a mushroom as far as possible...
