Thank you, Christine! I'm glad. I just finished editing a video on my exact gold leafing process. It shows everything and offers tips as well as the "how to". You can easily pick up some gold leaf and get started right away! I'll post the video tomorrow morning :)

Wow, thank you so much!!! This one did turn out surprisingly gorgeous!

Thank you, Laura!

Thank you, Lilette! I have a resin video on my channel plus many more trays...I would love if you checked them out! kzfaq.info

Hey thanks!

Hi, Kimmie! Thank you! Here is the gold leaf tutorial video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/l5-HptSGr53Dhp8.html

My pleasure, Theresa! Thank you for watching and getting in touch with me.

Alright, Maria, consider it done (but give me some time to do it :)

Thank you for the request! I will consider making one that goes into depth on applying resin to these trays! The process is pretty much the same as in these two other videos of mine. Here is one in which I apply resin to the tops of my acrylic pours: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pqdoo9B_zN_ZoHU.html This one covers safety gear as well and shows me using resin on coasters: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/opuRi9qGu93dkas.html I follow the same steps for trays except that I use a torch to pop bubbles on the trays and a heat gun with the molds.

Thanks for the compliment, Rachel! I really appreciate it :)

@@592sungirl you got it! I’m going to send you a video tutorial on each.

This video shows you how to resin over an acrylic pour. The demonstration is on a canvas but it’s the same on a tray. Just use the circle calculate on art resin’s website to determine how much resin to use.

Hi, Karen! Aren't the colors fabulous? I love them, too. Deep violet, turquoise, periwinkle, purple, gold, light aqua, and magenta. Happy painting, I hope your creation turns out to be something you love!

Thank you, dear! I will work on the gold leaf and resin videos eventually. Let me think. Vases or mugs would be cool to pour on! I've seen people even do clocks. Plain old canvas is my favorite. Do you have any other ideas?

@@AnnaKoehnArt That sounds lovely!! I can’t think of anything else at the moment...but I’ll let you know if I come up with anything :)

@@ajoyfulheart2328 I thought of something else...my coffee tables! They could use a makeover. I'll try to film the process if I end up trying it!

@@AnnaKoehnArt Ooh, that would be so cool!! Great idea!

That's such a great question. I do have answers! Use ArtResin's Circle Calculator (google it) to find out how many ounces to pour on. Before I found that tool I just learned by experimentation: use too little paint and I just had to add a bit more onto the pour. Use too much and it was just thicker and took longer to dry. Didn't ruin the painting, though. One great tip is to keep your paint on the thicker side for a flip cup pour. Thinner if you are blowing it out as in a dutch pour. Once I had done enough trays I can just eyeball how much paint is in the cup and I know it will cover just right. Have fun creating!

Hi, Wendy! No silicone :) the paint does it by itself with the right consistency and a little use of the torch! See my video here on my paint recipe: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mdCHnZp_vMetdY0.html

@@AnnaKoehnArt Hi Anna, thank you so much for clarifying. x

Hi, Treesie! It depends how much you want the design to stretch, but I usually use at least 3/4 of a 9 oz. cup and that seems to cover a 15-18" tray pretty well.

@@AnnaKoehnArt thank you so much for answering ALL of my questions, they truly help so very much!! 💐💖💐

Hello, Kelly Kuan from Taiwan! I used acrylic paint for the underlayer (colorful design). I mix my acrylic paints with water and floetrol. This video has my paint recipe if you want it: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mdCHnZp_vMetdY0.html and then composition gold leaf for the gold lines. If you are interested in seeing how I do the gold leaf detailing, I welcome you to see the process in more detail in this video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/l5-HptSGr53Dhp8.html Thanks for watching! I appreciate your question and hope you stop by again :)

Thank you for watching! It depends on the wood, the size, and the materials I use. Feel free to check out my webshop! www.AnnaKoehnArt.com

Hi, Jessica! It depends on the size and also whether it's a custom tray or done for an art show. Somewhere in the range of $80-$200 is what I've currently been selling these at. Thanks for watching!

Thanks for letting me know, that's such great feedback! I do want to improve my videos. What kind of music do you think would be better, something more subtle and relaxing?
