- Hey, guys, what's up?

It's Lauren,

and welcome to "Craftopia."

Three creative kids,

two craft challenges,

one grand-prize winner.

This is "Craftopia"!

Let's welcome our

craft-testants.

First up, painter and

papier-mâché master, Nicola.

- My secret weapon is

my uniqueness and my glue gun.

- And next up, he's a wizard

of all things clay, Zion.

- I'm pretty good at clay,

if I do say so myself.

- And last but not least,

future designer

and cat lover, Monroe!

- Well, there's LaurDIY,

but then there's me, MoDIY.

- All right, guys, who here

is ready to craft today?

Me!

- LaurDIY,

I watched her videos

and they're really good.

She's got, like,

nine million followers

on YouTube.

- I love her videos,

and it's just amazing.

I'm, like, freaking out.

- As always, we have

our amazing team of judges.

She is the master

of miniatures, Toya.

Mr. Handy Dandy himself,

James Worsham.

And I'm absolutely positive

all of you have seen

our guest judge's work,

and that's because you're

standing in it right now.

He's one of the top

production designers in TV

and is the creator behind

everything you're looking at

in Craftopia,

J.P. Connelly.

- Hi!
- Hi, guys!

- Welcome to my house.
- I wish this were my house.

- All right, guys,

one of the most popular

crafting trends today

are animal heads,

and, my mini Michelangelos,

- that's exactly what
- you're going to be doing

In today's quick craft.

Create a bust of any beast

you want,

and we're only giving you

one hour to craft.

And while you're shopping,

keep your eyes peeled

for our prized panda...

Our adorable

"Craftopia" mascot.

If you're lucky enough to find

it, you'll win a mini drone!

- Really?
- Whoa!

- Yeah.
- My God!

- All right, are you ready
- to start crafting?

Yeah.

- All right, Ready...

set...

craft!

- ♪ I'm waking up every day

with my head in the clouds ♪

♪ It's been a while

since I came back ♪

- Okay. And now the fur,

the fur, the fur.

I'm going to make a lion.

First of all, I'm going

to take aluminum foil,

and I'm gonna make the snout.

Then I'm going

to papier-mâché it.

- After that,
- I'm going to paint my lion,

Put on the mane...

- Just gonna throw it in there.
- And a ball.

Gosh, I need a ball.

- It's like a shopping spree.
- I've never been on one before.

- Maybe this is how
- it feels like.

I like this one.

- I shop, shop, shop.
- I shop, shop, shop.

And paint!

I'm extremely excited.

Paint, paint, paint, paint!

Okay.

- Craftopia is insane.

- They have so many, like,
- different things...

Hot-glue guns,

like, saws and hammers,

fabric, clay.

I'm making an elephant.

The reason why I'm using clay

is 'cause if it dries,

it dries the correct color,

- 'cause elephants
- are, like, gray.

$5,000 is a lot of money.

Make it rain!

- So this is where you get
- to see the magic

Of what happens when you

unleash kids

- into your world
- that you've created.

- They're tearing it
- all apart!

It looked so pretty!

- This is amazing!

And it's rubber!

I'm a unique person,

and I'm very, like,

fashionable.

It's like pop-up artistic-y.

I like to stand out.

- I need this stuff,
- all of it.

I'm gonna make a squid.

The materials are foam balls

and different

illuminescent fabrics,

yarn for tentacles.

- I'm gonna have to,
- like, hot-glue it.

Hot glue fixes everything.

- This is a giant paint bucket,

and, yes, the hoses

actually dispense paint.

Here we go.

Red paint, white paint,

yellow paint, blue paint.

- Functional and pretty...

- Right?
- I love it.

- Glitter salad bar.
- I love this.

- And a big thread spool.

Wow!

- There's endless Styrofoam.

My God!

- I'm making a squid, and this

is gonna be the over part.

And I'll do a few layers

so it's not fully showing.

- The iridescent material

is really awesome.

- I kind of see myself

like a squid,

- 'cause they're kind of just
- different animals.

- I think that
- they're really cool

Because they can change colors

depending on their mood.

- I'm making the lion.

So I used to live

in South Africa,

and there are lions

that live there,

and they're brave and loyal

and stuff like that.

And I think that's pretty much

my characteristics.

I just love lions so much

and...

Burning.

Ouch!

I had a craft accident

with the glue gun.

Don't burn me.

- There we go.
- Ooh, that's hot.

Meanie.

- You know, my trick

is to use masking tape.

- It adheres really good
- to aluminum,

And you don't get burned.

- It's forgiving.
- You can move it around.

- I know. Heat transfers
- through the metal pretty...

- It does.
- Yeah.

- The next set I do is gonna be
- made out of tinfoil, though.

- I'm gonna try that.
- I'm making an elephant.

- Ooh!
- My gosh!

- What are you gonna make
- the trunk out of?

Tinfoil and...

- No, I have this tubing.
- You're right.

- Ooh, perfect.

- I was gonna attach
- this tubing like that

- And then cut it short.
- Yeah?

- And then I'm gonna use the
- clay to cover the whole thing.

- Cool.
- On, my gosh. I love it.

- So excited to see
- what it looks like.

- Thank you.

- Crafting makes me
- really happy.

- It's sticking.
- Let's go.

As happy as, like,

eating 1,000 tacos.

Who doesn't like tacos?

- I'm seeing an elephant form.

For sure.

- He's got the dryer vent,

- which is already flexible
- to begin with, for the trunk,

- Which I think is really smart.
- That's cool.

- What I was worried about
- with the clay

- Is that it's adding a lot
- of weight.

- Heavy!

- No!
- It's so sad.

- This elephant trunk

is too heavy.

- I think I need to add
- more glue.

- I'm terrified that he's

gonna hold that thing up,

- and that nose
- is gonna fall right off.

- The trunk needs to stay

on top of this head,

'cause, like, without that,

like, it's not really

an elephant.

- So now I'm going

to papier-mâché all over.

Papier-mâché is basically...

Paper and glue.

Paste, dry, nice.

Love a good papier-mâché.

A pro tip if you're doing

papier-mâché at home

- and you're making it
- from scratch...

It can get a little bit stinky.

- You can add cinnamon
- or essential oils

To make it smell better.

- Guys,
- we have 20 minutes left.

- Wow.

- Right now
- I'm making the tentacles

Out of yarn.

So then I will glue

this hoop to the bottom

- of the squid
- and then tie it all together,

- And those will be
- the tentacles.

- Let's check in on the squid.

How is the squid doing?

- She's braiding the tentacles

with a different yarn.

Loving this!

- That is such a cool idea.
- So good! It's so good.

- Ha!

It works!

- Zion, are we making

a woolly mammoth?

- I think so.

I think it's kind of shifted.

I don't have enough time

to finish this elephant.

- You know what looks like
- an elephant?

A woolly mammoth.

I chose a woolly mammoth

because they look just

like elephants,

and I can cover up

the mistakes with hair.

- Now, instead of covering
- the entire thing with clay,

- Which I was
- having trouble with,

I'll cover it with hair.

- It's a woolly mammoth.

That's a genius pivot.

- I was like,

"What if I draped it on top?"

Not only would that solve

the problem with the clay,

- but I thought
- it'd just look nicer.

- Right.

- Wait, do woollies have ears?

- I think they do.

- What about tusks?
- They definitely have tusks.

- I'm gonna add tusks
- under here.

- Okay, well, I think
- it's genius, your pivot.

I'm so excited.

- Thank you.

- I'm trying to mix the color

for the lion's face now,

and I think

I about have it right.

Now I am going to paint it.

- She's painting,
- she's painting,

- She's painting,
- she's painting.

- The lion is amazing.

The technique is working.

- I'm a little worried
- about drying time,

- But I'm very, very happy
- with where that's going,

'cause it's, like, awesome!

- I'm looking for...

stick-in wire.

Aw!

I found the panda!

- Monroe got the prized panda!

- Monroe's got the panda!

- Good job, Monroe!

- Pandas have been found.

- I found the panda!

- Where?

- It was right over there!

I found the prized panda.

- Monroe, my gosh,

you're going home

with a mini drone.

All right, craft-testants,

you've got a little less

than eight minutes remaining.

- So anxious right now.

- They all look,
- like, cool as cucumbers.

- It's important
- to attach the mane

Because...

A lion can't be king

without a mane, you know?

- I'm trying to make the tusks,

- but they're not really sticking
- to the face.

So what I'm gonna do is,

I'm gonna add more hot glue,

and after I finish that,

I want to cover it with money

because the tusks and, like,

the ivory are used for money,

- and I'm really excited
- for that.

- I'm really worried

about the woolly mammoth.

- Really?

- He's using money...

- What?

- To glue tusks on.

It could come together,

- but to me,
- it's like super creative,

But it's making me nervous.

- I made the eyes

out of a cup, some foam,

and then two bottle caps.

So I got the two eyes.

- These are
- Craftopia goggles.

They're very expensive.

- These projects

are looking amazing!

- Totally qualified
- to judge now.

- Final 60 seconds!

- Now I'm kind of stressed.

- Maybe I could give him

a little haircut right here.

- I'm busy making

the crown of my lion.

Seven, six, five,

four, three, two, one!

- Power tools down

and hands up, guys.

Good job!

- Nice job.

- You too.

- All right, craft-testants,

these projects

look incredible,

and you completed them in such

a short amount of time.

- Nicola, do you want to
- start us off?

- Yes.
- Okay.

I made a lion because

I'm from South Africa.

It's a cartoon lion.

His name is Finicky.

It looks like it's popping

out of the bushes

and scaring you,

but then you see it's

actually just a nice lion.

And it's an artist.

- As you can see, it has
- a paintbrush in its mouth

And it has painted on itself.

- I think that was
- a really smart way

- To give that sculptural
- element to your project.

- I do feel like the paintbrush
- and the paint,

It kind of hid over some

of those techniques

- that were really championing
- your project.

- I'm in love with the brush.

- We disagree.

- We disagree,

and I think that the fact

that the lion has a hobby

is crazy fun.

- Thank you.

- And, Zion, walk us

through your woolly mammoth.

- I made Fonty,

the woolly mammoth.

I did tinfoil, then clay

to build it out.

And then I used some

of the extra white clay

- and, like,
- pasted money onto it

Because, like,

they're sold, like, nowadays,

- like, the tusks, like the ivory
- for, like, money.

- Wow.

- And I was originally
- gonna make an elephant.

- I didn't have enough time
- to, like, add the floppy ears.

- So I kind of, like, switched it
- to a woolly mammoth

- So I could, like, finish it
- and make it look nice.

- Sometimes I do that
- all the time at work.

- Sometimes it's just
- not working out...

And I have a deadline.

- And you just have to switch,
- and you have to figure it out.

And you did,

and you really impressed me.

- At the same time, though,

- there's a lot of glue
- around the eyes,

And the placement is

a little off-center.

- So you really want to make sure
- that's symmetrical next time.

- And, Monroe,

your fabulous squid.

- Well, this is Bling-ward

'cause there's Squidward but

it's kind of like a bling one.

So, for the eyes,

- I had, like,
- a kind of dessert-y

Short little plastic cup

that I used.

And then I used one

of the foam balls,

and then I used bottle caps

for the pupils.

- They're cool eyes.

- I've never even seen anything
- like that before.

- Thank you.

- Why did you choose a squid?

- I live in West Seattle.

- During the winter,
- you can go off to the docks,

And you can see

all of the squid, like,

- glowing near the water.
- Wow.

- So I decided to add

a little bit of, like,

the crystal-y ones,

- because when the light hits it,
- it sparkles.

- I just wish if you could...

- You could've used
- a little bit more blue.

- Maybe if there was
- just a bit of blue

In the tentacles

- that are so rich and beautiful
- and look like your hair.

- All right, craft-testants,

well, these look incredible.

You should be so proud

of yourselves.

The judges have

a tough decision to make.

- I'm very nervous.
- I know.

- Unfortunately,

only two craft-testants

can move forward

to the Craft Master Challenge.

James?

- All right, so we had a really
- tough choice with this,

But our favorite...

is Nicola and the lion.

- Thank you.

Yes!

I made it to the second round!

♪ I'm so excited ♪

- It's so beautiful,

- and I love that you embraced
- the technique.

So, well done.

- Thank you so very much.

- And, Toya?

- Unfortunately,
- only one person

Can move to the next round,

and that person is...

- Please say Monroe.

Please say Monroe.

- Monroe, congratulations.

You're moving forward.

- A huge congrats

to Nicola and Monroe

for moving on

to the Craft Master Challenge.

And, Zion,

you're taking home

a "Craftopia" gift card

worth $500.

- Whoa.

- Congratulations.

You are so talented.

Let me get a high five!

Us and our matching outfits.

- Bye, Zion!
- All right, thank you.

I had a great time.

Even though I'm leaving,

I had a lot of fun,

and I learned in "Craftopia"

that sometimes

you can go in with one idea

and come out

with a totally different idea,

and it's totally okay.

- Nicola and Monroe,
- you're still in the running

For "Craftopia" champion

and $5,000.

- I'm so excited.

- So, for today's challenge,

I've brought in

a very special guest.

He can be a little tough

but also very sweet

and definitely has

some strong opinions.

- Are you guys ready
- to meet him?

Yeah.

- All right, come on down.

- No, no.
- No, seriously.

- Come on. Come on out.
- You got this.

All right, Moose,

come on out!

- Bye, Moose!

Moose-y!

My God.

- Now, let me tell you,

this next craft is going

to be "ruff" for sure.

It's a hairy challenge

That will hound you.

And if you can't tell yet,

it involves...

pause for maximum

dramatic effect...

pets!

My God.

- So, in honor of pets
- everywhere,

- You'll both build
- a custom sleep area

That's fit for a dog

or a cat or a snake.

You do you.

So you'll have two hours,

- and you can grab whatever
- you want

- From the "Craftopia"
- craft shop.

- Ready?
- And craft!

- My God!
- He's so heavy!

- I ran out of space already.

- Bouncy balls,

bouncy balls.

I'm making a dome for dogs

out of tennis balls.

So I'm gonna surround

the tennis balls

like a igloo.

- Excuse me!
- I'm sorry!

- My God!
- Do you really need that many?

- Yes, I do!

I need pillow.

I'm making a cat house

for my cat.

It's also a play place.

I'm grabbing, like, crates,

PVC piping,

and screwdrivers

and all that stuff.

- Ooh,
- and then we have crates.

- I'm really excited
- to see these crates

Because then they can make

a perfect double-decker.

Because cats like

to jump up on things

unless your cat is lazy,

- but my cats are
- very energetic.

- I'm having trouble
- doing the screws.

Ooh!

- I have to be like a straight-up
- construction worker right now

- To make sure none
- of this falls apart

When any pressure is put on.

- We got our power tools out.

This is serious.

- It's gonna have two levels.

- My gosh...
- Double-decker bed.

I love it.

So I made Moose a bed

out of a suitcase,

and a pro crafting tip

is to just reuse things

and upcycle things

you already have at home...

Anything from a basket,

and I've even seen

a pet bed made from a drawer.

- A little bit more of this.

- Okay, so there's a lot

of mess going on.

- She's laid down some paper,
- though.

Good for her.

It's not gonna make a mess.

- It looks like
- she's going for, like,

A two-toned-paint vibe.

- Just squeezed out
- copious amounts of paint

Onto her piece of wood.

It's really fun to watch.

- You get a lot of depth
- out of it.

It's good.

- Okay, so what are we making?
- Walk me through it.

- Okay, so I'm gonna make

a dog dome.

It's like an igloo.

- I'm gonna build
- the tennis balls all around it

And then, like,

over it like a dome.

- Wow!
- With all the tennis balls?

Yes.

Do you have any pets at home?

- So we had these lizards

- out at my house
- in South Africa.

They're called

bloukopkoggelmanders.

They're called what?

- Bloukopkoggelmanders.

- Blouko...

- Bloukopkoggelmanders.

- I don't think...

I don't know if I can...

- I don't know if
- I can replicate that.

- A bloukopkoggelmander

is this lizard as big

as a bearded dragon.

Bloukop means "blue head."

Koggelmander,

I don't know what that means.

- I'm using this

piece of tile.

So then I'm gonna put it

in there.

- So then they can have their
- food and stuff in there

If they want,

but it's an easy cleanup.

This material is very hard

to cut.

I have no idea what this...

"lanoleum"...

I can't say it.

I have no idea what this

linoleum is made out of.

- The glue gun.

This is the bottom of it.

Yeah.

- Wow!

- I might need a closer look.

I'm gonna report back.

- I also want to see
- the jungle gym,

'cause she's moved

to the floor.

- Can you hear that drying?

- That's the sound of victory
- right there.

- Where does your eye go?

- Right to the tennis balls.

- ♪ Wow factor ♪

- What is going on here?

- I'm building a dome.

- When are you gonna
- round it up?

What's the plan?

What's the plan?

- I built the walls too high.

No!

Now I can't make the dome.

I have to change plans!

I think I'm gonna

put carpet

and then make it like

a cat/dog house.

Yes.

Finally!

Okay.

- Last 30 minutes!

- What is happening?

- I'm making a, like,

little apartment area.

- Yeah!

What's the plan

for these tube things?

- So, for the PVC piping,

I am gonna wrap them with

really thick, puffy yarn

- to make kind of a little dome
- for them to sleep in.

- So great.
- Are you gonna use any of this?

- I'm not gonna use any glitter

- 'cause I don't want them
- to eat it

Or it to get in their eyes.

- Good call.
- Good call.

- When they said pet,

I thought of my cats.

I'm making them a little

place to relax and sleep

but also to be able

to have fun.

- I'm definitely
- an animal person.

I have about 14 pets at home.

I have two ducks...

six chickens,

two cats,

one dog,

two lizards,

one fish,

two mice,

and one...

Did I say one dog?

One dog.

- I have glitter.

I couldn't help myself.

- No!

- No, no!

Cleanup on aisle James!

- So I'm looking through
- Craftopia,

And I find feathers!

This top part is where the cat

is going to lay.

- Structurally,
- what are you thinking?

I mean, 'cause you're

the master designer here, so...

- Stop!
- No!

I think it's

a little bit boring.

- Really?

- I'm still, like...
- I need a little bit of wow.

- Last two minutes, guys!

Finishing touches!

- My gosh.

- Okay,

I'm worried a little bit.

- Well, right now
- I'm really focusing

- On getting all
- the decorations

- And then staying
- with the same colors.

Yes!

Cats love to hit stuff

and, like, chew on stuff.

Cats are funny.

Meow.

- 30 seconds!

- I don't know what to do!

- I'm going to use

this stencil,

add a little bit of paint.

Eight, seven, six, five,

four, three, two, one!

Crafting tools down!

Hands up, guys!

Good job!

Whoo!

What happened here?

I threw glitter at James.

Yeah.

- Craft-testants,

these pet beds look incredible.

Moose would be so thrilled

to snuggle in both of these.

- Nicola,
- do you want to start us off?

- Yes.

I decided to make a cat bed

and a dog bed.

- So I built the wall
- of tennis balls,

And I put feathers

because cats like feathers.

And I have lights

at the bottom.

There we go.

And I made these little toys

for the cat.

Oop!

I made these little toys

for the cat on top.

And I made this little bear.

And I didn't, like,

cover the stuffing,

because if the dog has

a little accident inside,

- you could just take out
- the stuffing

And throw it away

and put new stuffing inside.

- I'm not sure if the choice

to keep bedding clean or not

was the right choice,

but I wish you made,

like, a cover for it.

What was the most fun part

about making this?

- The glitter.
- The glitter.

- The glitter.
- Naturally.

- Look, I've got glitter
- in my hair.

- Yes!
- Yes!

- Monroe,
- do you want to walk us

- Through your cat condo
- over there?

- So this is

my Malibu beach house.

My cats are hairless.

- So that's why I added
- so much fuzz

- 'cause they like the fuzz
- to stay warm.

- I did this, and it's not

only a pole to support it,

- it's also a scratching post
- for them.

Yeah, that's it.

- Awesome.
- Thank you so much, Monroe.

- I'm obsessed with the details

in this piece.

I mean, it's really good.

- So I guess the only thing
- I would say is

- Maybe you just want to make it
- even bigger, I guess.

- You could even go three,
- four stories tall.

- Yeah.
- Love it.

- Love it.
- Thank you.

- All right, guys,
- well, these look great.

Unfortunately,

we can only have one winner.

- All right, guys, you have

a big decision to make.

- Yeah.

- Are you okay?

- It's okay.
- We got this.

We got this.

- All right, guys, it seems
- like you've come to a decision.

- You two have showed off some

incredible skills today.

Still, only one of you can win

the Craftrophia

and the grand prize of $5,000.

But our runner-up will be

getting a special treat, too...

A "Craftopia" gift card

worth $1,000!

- Whoo!

- How are you guys feeling?

- Excited. Excited.

- I'm so...

- All right, so the winner

of "Craftopia" is...

- Monroe!

- ♪ Don't stop looking up ♪

- You guys both did so good!

- I got a gift card of $1,000!

I was so excited!

- I'm really excited

that I won.

- I can't wait to take this
- trophy home

And show it to my cats.

- ♪ Don't stop looking up ♪

- I won "Craftopia"!

- Whoo!
