Thank you so much!! I found the Etsy listing where I purchased them: www.etsy.com/listing/998128619/green-flame-glass-rhinestones-non-hot They are called Green Flame Glass Rhinestones from the Rocking Rhinestones shop, and I used sizes ss6, 8, 12, 16, and 20.

You are so kind, thank you! 🥰

HELLO FELLOW WISCONSINITE!! ❤️ My husband and I are paramedics in our area, so whenever he is on call, I'm always listening and making sure he's okay 🥰🩵💙 As far as leaving the stainless steel color underneath - it's typically not something I do, I usually DO want the colors to pop and be more visible, so I usually put down a white or some other lighter color first. But I like how the silver base is more mellow for this particular cup. If I were to spray paint it with something, I'd probably go with a metallic gold or a brown. I think having white would make it TOO colorful and it wouldn't look as realistic and wouldn't give me the muted and murky look I was going for. Thanks for your comment!! ❤️❤️❤️

And as much as I love the metallic inks, just a drop or two can fan out and really take over. They can almost turn into blobs if you're not careful. So when I want just a little "ribbon" of metallic color, I usually dilute it like this first. 👍

Yes I agree. The stainless steel just made it look great.

@@debbiedeshong5602 Thank you!! ❤️

Thank you so much!! I unfortunately didn't get a final photo for the order, I don't know why, I think I just forgot! But I did two different types of fish. The mugs were for 3 older fishermen, so I used "old man" fish (etsy purchase) with each of their names below. I'll see if the commemts here will let me post a photo...

Bummer, it won't let me post a photo. I purchased the realistic fish from LillyAllenDesigns (search "fish illustration" in her store: www.etsy.com/shop/LillyAllenDesigns And for the old men fish, I used these guys: www.etsy.com/listing/1490499987/11-bass-fish-png-funny-bass

@@fourthandbirch9809 thanks!!

I'm not sure!! What's a tapper? Maybe I do but I don't call it the right name? I tend to make up my own words sometimes 😂

And thank you so much! ❤️

Thank you so much!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

It would go "every other" row, each 1 number different. So in a smaller scale example, you would have one row with 10, then 9, then 10 again, then 9, and so forth.

@@fourthandbirch9809 is that for a flat surface or tumbler. I was told all the same number for a tumbler. Is that right????

​@@karibeetch1311so sorry if I misunderstood. For a flat surface, it would vary back & forth. But a tumbler would have the same number in every row.

Thank you!! And I'm so glad you love yours!! I always give my cups a full 72 hours after the last layer before I use them. I always want to make sure they are fully cured. ♥️

Thank you so much!!!!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️

Thank you so much!! I so appreciate knowing that it was helpful!! ❤️ As far as the cup turner, I usually buy mine on Amazon. Search for "single cup turner." They do come in doubles and even more attached together... But I really like the single ones so I can easily pick them up and tip them around to get the swirls I want. 💕

I used 30mL of epoxy. For this method (where you want the glitter to sink down into the epoxy), you want to add a fairly thick "flood" coat so there's enough epoxy to make all of the glitter look "wet" or more matte-like. It decreases the overall amount of sparkle potential that the glitter has (compared to a traditional tumbler where you use a pretty small amount of epoxy to adhere the glitter), but I think the overall look is really nice. 💕

@@fourthandbirch9809 thank you so much. I have a lot of the recollection glitter. I think I have to try this.

First, I sand my stainless steel cup with sand paper. Then I wash it with water and a little dawn dish soap. I rinse it really well, then dry it well too. (then spray paint, if that's in your plan). I don't clean mine with alcohol before applying epoxy because even after dry, alcohol can cause issues with the epoxy layer (and fingerprints too, for that matter- so I wear gloves after it's dry). Cleaning with alcohol before applying epoxy is notorious for creating "fish eyes" (little divots in your resin). I would guess this might be your problem. Sometimes fish eyes still happen with these swirl cups (where you drop alcohol inks on top of your resin). When I get these, once dry/cured, I lightly sand over them and apply another epoxy layer.

There are some turners out there that do have a tilt feature, but I don't have that, so I'm not sure where to get those. I just use an inexpensive single turner that I can just pick up all together and tip it as I want to. Then when I'm done with the swirls, I just set it back down on the table.

Thank you!! ❤️❤️

Thank you so much!!! 😊

Haha, and thank you! I am not patient either!! And the longer my resin takes to cure, the higher the chance a rogue dog hair makes it's home on it!! 😂😂

I have used several different things for the white, including resin dye as well as a concentrated white pigment. I would guess that as long as it makes an opaque white, it would work just fine! The only thing I would be a little careful with is actual acrylic paint, as that can speed up the curing process, and you can all of a sudden have a hot, gooey, sticky resin that will not move or be able to be applied. ❤

Thanks for the reply. I was able to match some of your colors AND get the same white at Michaels here in Canada. Happy Dance!

@@heathersmyth3517 that's awesome!!! I know finding things in Canada can be tough, and it's fairly expensive to ship things there. I'm so glad you found things, though!!! ❤️❤️

@@heathersmyth3517 I'm in Northwest Wisconsin, and the rest of the country thinks The country ends at the top of Illinois. So we joke and call ourselves Southern Canada 🤣

I love that! We are fortunate to be close to the border so I can order into Port Huron. It's still a 1.5 hr drive each way plus border crossing but can be worth the trip.

That sounds amazing!!!! I love the natural colors (browns, etc) too. I would love to see your work! ❤️

Thanks! I think so too!! I was tired of not knowing what each one really looked like, then having to do a little color test experiment before each new project. This saves me so much time and helps me make my color picks right away!! 😊

Thank you!!!!! 🥰

You're welcome!! Thank you for your comment ❤️

Thank you so much ❤️

Ooooh, this is SO difficult to estimate. There are so many factors that play into this. However, I'll try to give you a super rough estimate. So, I just taped off a 1"x1" square on mine and counted what I used in that area. In that square inch, I used 13 of the 5mm, 11 of the 4mm, 21 of the 3mm,and 11 of the 2mm. So for a 20oz skinny like I used in this video (which has a height of about 8.2 and a circumference of 9.1) would have a square area of about 75 square inches in total. That would mean (if all my areas were similar in size dispersion), I would have used about 975 of the 5mm stones; 825 of the 4mm; 1,575 of the 3mm; and 825 of the 2mm. I hope this helps at least a little!!! ❤️❤️

@@fourthandbirch9809 Yes! This is very helpful especially for a beginner like me. I've been doing diamond paintings for about a year now and I think I'm ready to start blinging! Thank you thank you so much! <3 <3 <3

@@hotCpa2tC find me on Facebook (Fourth Birch) and let me know how it goes!! I'd love to see it!!! 🥰

Thank you!!! ❤️

That's awesome!! I still love looking at clouds, odd-pattern wallpaper, and so many things for random images! And you're right, these cups are perfect for that too!

Thank you!!!!! I know my videos are long and I can get long-winded too 😂 but when I personally watch tutorials to learn, I like a lot of details! I'd rather hear something that I might already know, versus missing some important details. So thank you for your comment!! It means so much to me!! ❤️

Thank you!!!! ❤️

Thank you!! It's amazing how different these swirl tumblers all turn out. ❤️❤️

Thank you!! ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you so much!!

Thank you!! So, I usually sand before I do anything else. So I wouldn't sand your spray paint layer. You can just start directly on top of that!!! Some people don't sand or prep at all, so you'll probably be just fine! ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you!!! ❤️❤️ And I have not tried this on liquid filled. Let me know if you do & how it goes!!! I love it when people report back ❤️🙂❤️🙂❤️

Thank you so much!!! ❤️❤️

You have to be EXTREMELY careful with a powder-coated tumbler. The powder coat usually repels the epoxy quite a bit, and I've even heard horror stories of people having their entire coat of epoxy just peel off of the cup. I have never used a powder coated tumbler, so I can't give too much advice. But I'd almost think you'd have to sand off all of the powder coat? Which wouldn't be what you want if you bought them for their color. However, most of the tumblers I make are VERY forgiving to poor spray-paint jobs (I am not good at spray painting at all!). Most of my designs cover up the base coat layer nicely, it's just there in case anything peeks through.

I wondered about the epoxy repelling. I think I will sand off most of it then spray paint it. Or I can always do a vinyl wrap after I scratch it up a little with sand paper. I would think a wrap would be easier and the epoxy shouldn’t repel. I’m still a rookie at this so I’m just guessing. BTW… I did do a coffee swirl but the ink moved so much overnight, it just looked brown. So I’m going to try again with a fast cure to keep the ink from moving so much. Thank you! ❤

@@luckypnut let me know how it goes!!! ❤️ And I've been using only fast cure for so long, it's hard to remember the regular cure stuff & how it's so different. But the fast cure is definitely great for any of the swirl cups, because it doesn't move around very long. And now that you have one under your belt, you have the feel for it, and you can definitely do it fast enough and get all your steps done for a fast cure! And you could probably do it as a layer right over your brown one (just sand it a little first) so you don't have to strip it or waste a cup! 🥰

Thank you so much!!! And as a fellow nurse, I'm sending good vibes to you! Keep on keeping on, stay safe, and best wishes! ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you!!! ❤️

Thank you so much!! ❤️ You can definitely use any white ink or pigment! Some are meant to "cell" or "feather" more, so I avoid those if I can (for this project, at least). And I use a heat gun that allows me to dial down the heat when needed: a.co/d/dw8GX73

Did you make it? How did it go??? 🥰

Thanks!! The color is called Green Flame. Here is an Etsy link: www.etsy.com/listing/819464486/green-flame-rhinestones ... or take a peek at the video description. 💕

Thank you so much!! ❤️❤️

Oh, thank you so much!!!! It took me a while to find the things I liked the best, but it's my go-to now! Thank you for your kind words! Best of luck on yours!! ❤️

Thank you so much, I appreciate it!! ❤️

Thank you so much for commenting!! You put a smile on my face. I am so happy that you appreciated it. 💕
