I really appreciate you showing when things don't turn out great, and your reaction to it. I'm really bad about giving up when a new craft doesn't succeed right away.

@jessophersthoughts7225 10 ай бұрын

I’ve been thinking this film would look really pretty if you cut into a bunch strips, and make one of your lamps with it. I think the light shining off all of the colorful bits would be stunning

Remindes me of shrinking the empty potato chip bags when I was a kid. Loved the coasters that you both created, especially with the light shining underneath. Can't wait to see what you create next.

The final try that got the results you wanted were pretty cool. But I think the 'failures' look really great as well if you're using their top sides.

@cdey8512 10 ай бұрын

I like them clear side up. The last set was pretty neat both ways. I was very glad when you grabbed a craft stick to hold the film while you were blasting it with the heat gun. It is almost like you heard me say, "Ah! Watch your fingers, my friend!" Nice that you got Nicole to work with you.

@TheConwoman3 10 ай бұрын

Those are pretty the light really sets them off. I saw a technique where you make a white base layer the when it is getting thick. You put plastic wrap on top of the white resin and kind of crinkle it. Let it totally dry then take the plastic wrap off. Paint the white resin with dry mica powder. Pour a layer of clear resin on top. I thought it looks like velvet ❤❤

@aaronpaulus3492 10 ай бұрын

Love the video, I hope you're healing up well. All of them do look good, clear on top could work just as well as black on top. Maybe try putting the film in a low heat oven to shrink it, see if it comes out any different?

@karacoop 10 ай бұрын

That was an interesting experiment for sure. I agree with you the bottom ones light up in such an awesome way but the top side of the middle coasters are pretty too!

This would look awesome as a lantern style, grab rectangle moulds, lights and and even experiment with different embeds textiles and you’d have a whole new project/collection to make and sell. Also with the ‘failed’ attempts, could you sand the bottoms down until the colour come through?
