What I Look For When Shopping Hobby Lobby as a Geode Resin Artist
I finally filmed the whole thing. This is exactly how I shop Hobby Lobby as a geode resin artist: what I pick up, what I put back, and the quiet math I run in my head before anything earns a spot in the cart. No list, no plan, just the trained eye doing its rounds. Press play above, then keep reading for where all of it is headed.
The short version of the haul
One table, one trip: bags of shells and crushed shell chips (the quiet heroes that glow under resin where glitter just sits there), opal iridescent glass pebbles that read like light on a tide pool, glass deco stones in blue, blush, and crystal, a full pastel POSCA set, shimmer pigment powders that are basically a Gulf sunset in jars, freshwater pearls, faceted crystal drops, resin starfish, and one wildcard woodburning tool I will either love or never mention again.

Where this table is headed
You are looking at the raw ingredients of a coastal run of pieces: shell beds, tide pool blues, pearl accents. Some of this will surface in the gallery, some in class demos, and the experiments that earn their place will show up along the way. If the woodburning tool works out on wood panel edges, you will see it here first.
My Legacy collectors saw this table the night it came home, unpacked and unfiltered, before a single frame was edited. That kind of first look is what the Collector Circle is for, and the front door is free.
If the video was useful, a subscribe over on YouTube tells me to film the next haul too.
