Shire? Baggins? As the first spawn of the new direction for this channel, I made a fully fledged Lord of the Rings epoxy resin diorama night light thing that while Bilbo, Sauron and the gang would find absolutely precious, almost killed me in the process. Ok not really but I did almost get a cut on my finger that one time.
Did I mention that I have no idea what I'm doing?
If you like this one and want to see more, I'd just absolutely love it if you subscribed, and if you have better ideas for future videos than I do, leave a comment!
