- October 22, 2020
In Craftopia season 1 episode 10, titled "Nightmare on Craft Street," the competition gets spooky as the remaining contestants face Halloween-inspired challenges. Hosted by renowned YouTube crafter Lauren Riihimaki, or LaurDIY, the episode begins with the contestants entering the Craftopia studio, which has been transformed into a haunted house for the occasion. The contestants are tasked with creating a set of three Halloween-themed items using various crafting materials, including pom poms, glitter, and pipe cleaners.
The first challenge involves creating a spooky spider web using only pom poms and glue. The contestants must think outside the box to create an intricate web that will impress the judges. The second challenge requires the contestants to make their own Halloween-themed pinatas. The catch? They must be able to hold a bag of candy. The contestants scramble to create unique and sturdy pinatas that will withstand being beaten with a stick.
The final challenge of the episode is the most daunting of all: creating a life-sized, wearable Halloween costume using unconventional materials. With just a few hours left, the contestants must work quickly to transform cardboard, duct tape, and other materials into a costume that will impress the judges. As the clock ticks down, the contestants face a number of setbacks, including costume malfunctions and construction mishaps.
Throughout the episode, LaurDIY provides guidance and encouragement to the contestants, offering advice and tips on crafting techniques. Guest judges, including YouTuber Rosanna Pansino and actor Gregg Sulkin, visit the studio to offer feedback on the contestants' creations. The judges evaluate the contestants based on creativity, originality, and overall awesomeness.
As the episode comes to a close, tension mounts as the judges deliberate on which contestant will be crowned the winner of Craftopia season 1. Will it be the contestant who created a creepy spider web, the one who made a pint-sized pinata, or the designer who crafted a show-stopping costume?
