I would like to buy one or two

Thankyou so much

Seriously, her molds are top notch

Genius!

Or maybe a Sand Dollar or a turtle to go with the ocean theme?

Ooooh a tropical one would be amazing! I see ferns 💯👌🦋🌿

I was wondering about this myself. Not to get myself more confused, can you brush over the resin like Julie was doing with the silver?

@@isabellrc You mean to apply a top coat? Yes. You can use it to push it around but it doesn't do well getting the edges. It's better to use your stir stick to get it to dome.

That’s a great tip. I’m definitely going to do that. Thanks!

@@funo6581 Yw! Look for small pastry/basting brush. I even cut half the bristles off of one for smaller molds. They are really cheap. I saw a pack of 12 for $6 on Amazon so you could get those and cut them down in different sizes for different projects. I have a tub of alcohol with a lid so it doesn't evaporate and I leave it in there while I finish pouring the rest of my resin. I put plastic wrap over it and the little tub while it sits in there so it doesn't smell or evaporate or catch on fire. Then I take it out and just wipe it off with a baby wipe. They stay very clean that way. I had a typo in my original comment but I meant to say I take one I cut down and run that around the corners or stick it into points or shy places bubbles get trapped easily in molds. Just kind of smear a small amount of resin everywhere. It keeps your gloves clean too. I used to use my finger (gloved) and dip it in my resin and so that until I found these little basting brushes.

@@PNWCagey-Dub I’ll check out Amazon and find those silicone brushes. A jar of alcohol is a good idea too and also that you’ve taken safety precautions with it is great! When I first started doing resin, I watched a resin artist on yt torch her piece right after using alcohol inks. It instantly ignited and it wasn’t a small fire, it’s been awhile but I think she was working on a canvas. She had her fire extinguisher right by her side and quickly put it out. I loved that she left that in her video, she could’ve just left that mistake out. Instead she gave her viewers an impactful visual lesson on how quickly things can become very dangerous. Resin is such a fun medium and it’s easy to get caught up in the creative aspect and torch out of habit. Thanks for all your great tips!

It doesn't work as well

@Nina Leoni Mohapp Poor girl! That would be frustrating, for sure! It sounds as if you will need to let your resin sit for a bit, to thicken up, before pouring. Julie *always* does that when creating her pours with a low viscosity - or even a medium - resin, especially when using a paste! Otherwise, everything falls to the bottom and blobs. Mine, too. Gotta wait! Each resin is different, so you may have to experiment with the wait time. If you have a cabochon mold of some type, pour your resin into several cavities, then start timing by 5 minutes apart (IF doing blooms, petri, cloud effects) before adding inks & pigment pastes. IF your resin is already colored, then just let the batch sit for maybe 15 minutes, then pour into 1 cavity. 5 minutes later, another one, etc...maybe as high as 35 minutes for last pour. By then, it will be pretty thick, I should think! Take a Sharpie marker & label each cavity with the times. Sharpie comes off silicone with alcohol. Sure hope this helps a bit?
