Oh mah gawsh that would have been terrible...it looks sketch FOR SURE but I think the likelihood of glass busting through both bags to hit me was not high. Glad I lived to craft another day 🙃
Nice video. Sometimes you just have to try, fail, learn and enjoy yourself. Nice footage from Iceland. Looking forward to the next video. Keep up the good work.
Thank you! And yes I think it’s very important to share the actual process. No one is perfect, no project goes 100% to plan, and that is totally fine ✌🏻👽✨
I'm going to be straight with ya... my favorite part was smashing the crap out of that bottle with a club!! (with your opening scene coming in a close second)! Looking forward to part 2., keep up the good work.
Hahaha thanks Troy! In my mind I legit only smashed that bottle twice and I was a bit shocked watching the footage to see that "Raquel The Destroyer" actually hit it 5 times 🤣
"It Seemed Like a Good Idea at the Time" and "It Hasn't Gone According to Plan" should be my personal house mottos. Also, I'm glad to see someone else repaints prepainted miniatures. But I can honestly say that was the best attempt at art with a homemade mallet and broken glass I've ever seen!
I also love Iceland. Maybe my favourite place I’ve visited. But as a person from the Canadian prairies my perspective of the weather was very different 🤣.......so mild, such warm! Did you experience the broken glass on the streets on the weekends in Reykjavik after bar nights?...that the locals will only tell you are from the fairies?
No fairies - just elves and terrifying weather 😉 We were there for about a week and just scratched the surface of what Iceland has to offer! Can't wait to go back and catch me a fairy! ...also I am filled with guilt for having tried Puffin. After the trip I learned that Puffins mate for life. I hope I didn't have someone's husband for dinner 😭
Great vid, i like the included mistakes/problems in tutorials its good to see what doesnt work out alongside what works. I can certainly see the potential in the dio and pretty sure you will make something impressive. I am definitely looking forward to seeing part 2
Now go watch a *much better* glass video courtesy of Conjured Craft: “Save The Planet While You Craft/ Sea Glass Terrain” ua-cam.com/video/ODBfqiFoaGo/v-deo.html
Yes! Jacob! So happy to see your comment ☺️ I may have alien hair but yes...I am a human who makes bad decisions from time to time. I am confident that the finished product will be rad! As always - thanks so much for watching!
I'm fully convinced that your plot of land was once some kind of moonshine empire. I have no facts to back this up, but that's my story. Great video, and I love the book nook
While I super duper appreciate the shout out as soon as you said "smash" I went NOOOOOOO. Glad you're okay, and I can't wait to see the rest of the nook!
Haha I know...I tried to make it clear that you did your glass craft in a much safer way. ATTENTION WORLD: LISTEN TO CONJURED CRAFT AND USE SEA GLASS WITH NICE ROUNDED EDGES!!!
Things I liked about this video: the way you blend your storytelling and your crafts, the way you painted the minis, the silly edits, the blue hair, and the fact that you survived that... experiment... with the glass. Thing I didn't like about this video: it ended. See you in part 2!
Try tempered glass as it brokes more evenly but hit at the corners. It will make things more secure but even though use gloves, a face shield, put on some jeans and maybe boots
Hi Raquel. Nice video and better intro mesage. We need this kind nowdays. Hope to see the second part soon. Island? I wish i can go there when muy little boys grow Up. Miguel
Oh it would be a great family trip! It is pretty cheap to fly there (it's a hub for many international flights) and a very easy country to navigate. I'm sure you'll get over there someday!
Weeew!!!
Can't wait to see part two! But I'm also very glad you didn't, like, get glass in your eyes or something. I was expecting much worse. 😬🩸🩹😅
Oh mah gawsh that would have been terrible...it looks sketch FOR SURE but I think the likelihood of glass busting through both bags to hit me was not high. Glad I lived to craft another day 🙃
Dang, that mallet actually rips! Any chance on a mallet tutorial?
Hahaha my partner made it! Go check out his woodworking channel and ask him to make a video about mallets lol ua-cam.com/users/NJTaylor89
Yay looking good 😍🥰
Thank you! ⭐️
I want to go to Iceland so bad...
I would 100% go again. Maybe that can be the place we all meet up when the world is normal and we can travel again? 😉
@@RaqrexArt why not!? Haha
Nice video. Sometimes you just have to try, fail, learn and enjoy yourself. Nice footage from Iceland. Looking forward to the next video. Keep up the good work.
Perfect wholesome nature intro, and it's great that you included the glass mishap because it shows that even the greats have slip ups

Hahahah. You should make sure to definately include a puffin bbq in your nook. =p
I'll write an episode of Paint to Life about it Raqrex ;)
@@GMAtank hahaha oh no! So sad! Maybe just a cute puffin pair to make amends with the puffin folk.
Excited to see where this goes. Your enthusiasm is infectious!
Aww thanks! And I'm excited too. Hopefully, the next video will be very redeeming 🤪
PVA glue with paper towels and baking soda will give a good affect of snow.

Thanks Phil! This video was a bit of a train wreck but I'm confident in the finished product...or at least my plans for it 😉

I’m excited for part 2! I loved the glass smashing action! 😂😭❤️
Haha it's a nice way to let out some stress 😉
Great video. I love that you kept the "fails" in the video. It helps us all know we are still human. Can't wait for part 2!
Yes! Jacob! So happy to see your comment ☺️ I may have alien hair but yes...I am a human who makes bad decisions from time to time. I am confident that the finished product will be rad! As always - thanks so much for watching!

Haha "experiment" is probably too kind of a word. But I'm so glad you enjoyed! I'll try to get part 2 out to y'all as quick as I can 🙂
Try tempered glass as it brokes more evenly but hit at the corners. It will make things more secure but even though use gloves, a face shield, put on some jeans and maybe boots
Hahaha probably will just avoiding breaking glass from now on but thanks for the advice! 🤗
hahah the mallet scene awesome
Haha it was pretty fun to smash that bottle 🙃 Not smart. But fun.
Your energy amazes me. Keep up the amazing videos!
Yes! Will do! 😊 Thank you 💫
