    I like the smooth roundness of Sarah's best but want it coloured with charcoal like Luke's☺ Great video!

    I really like that Luke had 4 different colors but I'm voting for Sarah for how smooth you were able to get it.

      I've made one that I've just finished. Like Lukes, it's charcoal on the outside but bound with sodium silicate. Actually, the core is sand and sodium silicate. Mine took far more than a day but I'm happy with the results. My next one will have a sand, charcoal and sodium silicate core and will be covered in wood pearl ash. I cast my core today.

    They're both terrific, I like the size and smoothness of Sarah's, but I'm most attracted to the intense dark charcoal colour of Luke's.
    So my votes for Luke.

  • @DeborahCarey-d5v

    @susanneclaussen5103 5 месяцев назад

    For me, the winner is Sarah 🎉 even if the color work of Luke is amazing too.
    And I loved how, in the competition dueling conversation, Sarah was unable to say something bad about Luke’s work 🤩

    Luke you made me giggle so much 😂😂😂 you’re so competitive…. It is a very hard choice to be honest… I can’t choose one. I think Sarah wins with the perfect sphere shape and smoothness, and Luke wins for the color… it’s a lovely color. Using Charcoal was a brilliant idea.

    I know we are suppose to choose one but both were winners for different reasons. Sarah’s was very smooth and spherical…lovely! Luke’s was unique and more colourful…well done! I wonder how they get the bright blue colours that were shown in the examples at the beginning? Does one have to use all natural materials? I’ve done a technique of transferring flowers onto paper with boiling…do thinking deep reds purples yellows might come from stewing the flowers then using the dye egg other by dipping the ball in or having on your hands. Loved this video and love to see more as I love to craft and create. Also love the times when you cook …do you do canning?
    Best wishes from Canada 🇨🇦

    • @lukeandsarahsoffgridlife
      @lukeandsarahsoffgridlife  5 месяцев назад +1

    Okay, I screwed up two pieces of paper with your names on... *drum role*🎉 shook them in a glass, just not for 2 hours 🤣🤣🤣 and Luke's name came up, so he gets my vote.😎
    To keep my stomach okay with this Im considering dropping down to the servo for a bag of Maltesers.
    PS this would be a beneficial mindfulness or 'healthy dissociation' activity, say for people with anxiety, with the bonus of lovely exfoliated hands.

    Had to be that a person from Malta would make malteasers! What an epic thing to create from dirt. Can see why it would become addictive! How to choose..... Luke's was rather small, interesting colour though. I think Sarah as she kept hers natural, it was bigger and super smooth.

    @quintadovalepermaculture 5 месяцев назад

    Well I just loved Maltesers as a kid so for me it has to be Sarah’s. Also because I love the idea of using just the soil of the quinta. But Luke’s were super interesting and creative too. I know a woman in Scotland who makes these out of many of the soils she comes across as an earth builder and they are just so beautiful. One day I’ll make one too but I have a house to finish first …
