I have been watching your videos for the past few months, and I must say that you're very good. I have learned a lot from them .Thanks Barry from the UK.
Those are soo soooo beautiful!! It’s surprising how the round one reacted so different. I must say I’m one of the people who likes to see start to finish, so thank you for taking the time to upload the whole process! Thanks to you I’m learning a new skill and making it through the shelter in place orders also!!!
Loved the outcome with the mica powders! I can see many possibilities with this method!! Thanks for being so specific about your methods!! It really helps this newbie!! Great job on your videos!!
I absolutely loved this!! The colours are just stunning. And loved the finished copper on it. Thank you for providing such wondering content with your resin journey.
Yes look for a pyramid, or a odd rock or crystal shaped thing used as a paper weight, or even a mold of small little bits like hearts, flowers or butterflies, etc., you could use then as pretty little magnets? These are beautiful by the way!
Primary elements is mainly for acrylic, not all of them will mix well in resin. However Colour Arte who makes primary elements also has a resin line, Rezin Arte, and WOW are they GORGEOUS, plus they just melt into you resin so easily and make amazing effects. The bling it line by colour arte work beautifully in both acrylic and resin. You can also order from several Australian based companies like Just Resin, Le Rez, and Color Passion. They all make fantastic products. I hope this helps you in your resin journey, I know it helped me when people were willing to share, tips, tricks, and product information.
Hi Julie, Along the way I picked a few tips about resin... don't stir it fast because u will get more bubbles than u would if u stirred slowly. It gets airy like a meringue. Also, try not to stir with a wooden stick because the wood can also bring air bubbles into the epoxy. Im no pro, just hoping these tidbits help ya
A couple of tips...to see the true beauty of the colour arte pigments you should use the “resin arte” pigments that are made for resin. The primary elements are specifically designed to be used in acrylics...( if you mix a little of the hot cinnamon primary elements pigment in some acrylic medium you will see the true colour )...although some of them will dissolve many of them don’t. When the resin gets hot it is on the verge of kicking off and becoming unworkable. This reaction is sped up if you leave your resin in a large container so good idea to split your resin into smaller containers which you did.
You are growing in leaps and bounds! These are definitely the best yet! And I love the lambswool as a background to display the coasters. [I'm a sucker for lambswool!] [I hope that doesn't mean anything bad in Australia!!!] The colors are gorgeous and I like the delicate effects. The round coaster is also beautiful and so different from the others. I still cannot wait for the blues greens and purples! I know you have them coming! Stay safe and thank you for taking us along on this learning adventure!
I haven't tried resin yet so this video is great. Would love to see purples/amethyst colors and perhaps put the sparkles at the outside jagged edge where the crystals would naturally grow. Thanks for sharing.
Have you ever seen a real Geode? I have them all around in my studio. My favorite is my Amethyst, and second my aquamarine. My husband gets them for me. They are suppose to bring healing and other positive waves. Keep them close by when your creating. Smokey quartz brings all kinds of good stuff into your life. Enjoy your coasters. XX
Be careful with the Primary Elements, some of them don't mix with resin. That's why you have the speckles of color, these should be opaque. ColourArte does have a resin line of pigments that are beautiful. You'll get much better results with those. Also, you can drag your stick through the resin to bring lines of colors into other colors. Not meaning to be bossy, just seeing you do things that I ran into when I first started playing with resin. And less is more with the pigment colors.
I use water in all my new molds and write down how much they hold, that way you’ll know how much resin you’ll need. I can’t remember if I left that on another comment so please forgive me if so, it’s just a good tip I learned that was a game changer so I like to share😊
I have seen videos where they said to put your powders in the cups before you pour the resin in them that it makes it easier and quicker for mixing. Just a thought. Beautiful geodes you made! Thanks for sharing.
I want to suggest you to get a handy drill with a simple T shape tool to mix up resin and pigments so quickly. It saves much time for you specially when using fast curing resins.
LOLIVEFE has those molds you're talking about. Kanella Ciraco showed the ones she had gotten from there and her paperweights were beautiful. Beautiful resin work!!! 🎨🎨🎨
Wow, they look great, love the transparency look and the effects from mica. The shapes good too, different from the usual round look. Maybe you could find a way to make them look like wood, that might work with these moulds too. 💛
Julie, here's another bit of info for ya. The fine mica powders you're using,have you noticed some floating in the air,the minute flakes will get in your throat,sinus' and lungs. It's a very good idea to have a face covering while your mica is in the powder form. Once mixed no worries. It is VERY irritating in the lungs. Be safe.
Those coasters are gorgeous I would like to know what you use to make them I'm a first-timer and I would like to make some for my home the colors that you choose is phenomenal I'm not sure if you're the same person that did the blue coasters but those were OMG I am truly amazed at all you can do this is really exciting for me I'm going to try to learn how to do some things you inspire me and I do appreciate you very much and may God bless you and may God keep you safe and out of harm's Way Amen
Julie, BEFORE you take the molds out after 12 hours, dome the top with clear resin so you don't get that lip, then let cure another 12 hours. It's easier to dome while still in the mold. Then unmold after the second 12 hours of curing. Resin ALWAYS shrinks while curing.
So pretty on the 4 Geode coasters. I wonder what they would look like if you concentrated the center of all 4 where they meet as being the center of the "large Geode". Beautiful!
The loli vefe site has the paper weight molds. Tammy Anderson has a lot of information on resin art. She usually answers guestions before you think of them.
Yes resin gets warm for the chemical reaction that makes it harden. So the warmer it gets the less time you have to work it. I’m definitely no chemist but that’s my understanding lol
Cool! I think the round one looks different because you didn’t pour any clear into it. I don’t think you used too little powder - you poured quite a lot of clear in the set of four, hence the transparency.
Very pretty, but if it was mine I wouldn’t want that big blob of gold in the center. I’d rather have it more dispersed. Just one person’s opinion. Could you pour water into the molds and measure it to see how much resin you need? I’ve never done this, so I have no idea...
Thanks for all the tutorials! I got one mold just like that one. I tried it once and it’s uneven! Do you have any suggestions on how to get it to work? I saw another video you mentioned that the mold was uneven. I contacted the supplier without luck. Thanks in advance!

These are stunningly beautiful...I love the colours so much..they remind me of dandelions ❤
Love watching your work and your laid-back approach you take to your work.
Elegant, Stunning, Beautiful etc. I love them

It's really fun to watch you because it's like having a teacher right there.

The copper was a great choice Julie, awesome job!!
Those are so gorgeous. I love the way you describe everything in detail. I especially love the color combinations. Beautiful!
Those coasters are so gorgeous and I have to say I love all your trays and coasters that you create.
So beautiful. All of them. Must say the round one is calling me. Love it so much
These are really lovely Julie. My favourite colours!
I absolutely loved this!! The colours are just stunning. And loved the finished copper on it. Thank you for providing such wondering content with your resin journey.
This set is my favorite so far love the colors. It feels very vintage to me and that is what draws me into them. Great look.
Yes look for a pyramid, or a odd rock or crystal shaped thing used as a paper weight, or even a mold of small little bits like hearts, flowers or butterflies, etc., you could use then as pretty little magnets? These are beautiful by the way!
These turned out the best yet. They would be great in red and green for Christmas.
Stunning!! My second favourite next to the white, cream and gold. Wow! ❤
I love how these came out - have not made my first one yet but I am learning so very much from watching you. I think I like the transparent look!
Hi Julie. I Absolutely love this and the colours. well Done 😀 I have been watching you for a while now as I am just starting to do the Resin.
Love them !!! Very pretty !!!
💐🤗💜👍
These are very nice they almost look like a leopard pattern 😊

Wow, those are absolutely gorgeous. . You did an amazing job. First time I have ever seen this..Great job.
You are getting very good at what you’re doing with the resin. So very pretty!
They came out so Beautiful. Thank you for sharing the info with us, it really helps by watching you and listening how you explain it 👍👍💖
Pretty! Love that mold. Earring molds are also great for leftover resin.

Thankyou, I'm still waiting for my mica powders to arrive
Helpful hint: put your mica powders into the cup then add the epoxy NO dust up when mixing.
Helpful advice! thank you!
Thank you so much for the video. Those are very beautiful, love them.

That black effect is really cool, it looks really pretty!!
I just absolutely love how this came out! So pretty!
They are stunning, Julie, and painting the border has been a great idea
I love the colors on these!
Absolutely gorgeous

Awesome, love these and the color on the edges is great!
I love your courage to try all aspects of Fluid Art. Gloria
Beautifully done.Thank you. ---Dave...
That is lovely lovely lovely!
Love these! I believe your primary elements will stay transparent, even if you add more. It’s typically one little spoon for each ounce.

Oh gosh! A year ago!?!!! And still loving you, lady!!!!
You did a spectacular job♥️

The set looks like it's leopard print effects. Very pretty !
Beautiful . Your such encouragement to me. Thank you for all you do. I just started playing some with resin.

Great art work 👌 👍 💯
Very pretty!! I think this is the nicest set. I love the pattern!
They are so pretty love them xx

I have learned from you I wanted to attach my coaster but there no attach here it is wonderful and all returns to your videos on UA-cam

The best yet. Gorgeous
I love it I think that I we'll try some of that for Christmas presents and a Christmas present for myself he he. You're fun to watch.
Love the colors
Wow, they look great, love the transparency look and the effects from mica. The shapes good too, different from the usual round look. Maybe you could find a way to make them look like wood, that might work with these moulds too. 💛
Love the wood idea!
EvanandKatelyn here on youtube use a lot of resin and have made a few more in depth videos on resin, they're super helpful

Your coasters are so beautiful. It makes me want to do that
These are fabulous
Love all your projects.
I just love the round one.its like an eye...
Very Pretty! Thanks For Sharing!
Wow, those are amazing!
Well done again Julie, they are gorgeous :)
🤩 Stunning!
beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Beautiful works
❤❤🖒
Ooooo love them! You definitely don’t need that much mica hun x (maybe 1/3 of that)
Beautiful work. Personally although I liked the copper edges, I would have preferred to just leave the edges as they were as they looked so delicate l
Too wonderful My Friend

quite a lot of clear in the set of four, hence the transparency.
Amazing work😍😍
Beautiful
Absolutely stunning colours - where do you get the gold mica flakes from? They are gorgeous. I would love to try them.
Very pretty, but if it was mine I wouldn’t want that big blob of gold in the center. I’d rather have it more dispersed. Just one person’s opinion. Could you pour water into the molds and measure it to see how much resin you need? I’ve never done this, so I have no idea...
Rebecca Stanevich yes you can but rice actually gives you a more accurate measure
@@danaparsonsliquidcosmosart2669 Interesting answer! This would never have occurred to me! Thank you!
I just used water to measure my very fist coaster. I don't know if rice is more accurate than water or simpler to work.
Beautiful!!!
Really like these
Stunning. Question: does the gilding need to be top coated?
Sooooo pretty 🙏♥️
My favorite. Where can buy molds like this. I’m in the USA
These coasters you justbmade are absolutely goregus.
Beautiful coasters can I ask what do you edge all your resin coasters with please?
Thanks for all the tutorials! I got one mold just like that one. I tried it once and it’s uneven! Do you have any suggestions on how to get it to work? I saw another video you mentioned that the mold was uneven. I contacted the supplier without luck. Thanks in advance!
Can you tell me where you purchased your mica powders, molds and the pen to do the sides please. Loving your videos
Beautifull
