- Today I will be making fun things with resin! The company Let's Resin sent me a generous selection of their products to try, including epoxy resin, molds, glitter and accessories. I'll unbox everything and make some resin art products using the molds. Was I successful this time around with my attempts? You can probably guess the answer to that! 😂

Becky x - Розваги
Really fun projects. They all turned out really well. The pyramids and the clear bowl are my favorites. ❤
Thank you! The bowl would work well for paint water, so I'll have to make more of those, lol.
@@BeckyTregearyou’re welcome. I think two bowls, one bowl for clean water and one bowl for dirty water. 😊
They are great, love glitter too. Hard to pick my favourite maybe the mushroom, or the pyramid or the roses 😍. Well done.
Thank you! Glitter always makes things better. 😁
They all look really good.
Thank you, I'm glad I was able to make some successful projects (we won't talk about the duds, lol).
Mushroom ❤
I'm so happy you had the safety gear. Nasty stuff! Well done you x Nell.
I love the mushroom - the bowl part is quite useful as a water pot, lol! And yes, safety gear is mandatory.
@@BeckyTregear lovely idea for the mushroom! Stay safe! x Nell.
Seems to me that you did really great! Certainly fun to watch :) Your finished products turned out well. I like your pyramids & roses too
Thank you! There is quite a lot of footage that didn't make it, as I had a couple which didn't set properly and I had to chuck the whole lot out. 😭
Cool! Looks like fun. The crystals are interesting. I'd like to see when you try those again. I think everything came out nice. Lovely roses! 👍
Thank you! I have lots of resin left so I'll make more and hopefully some of the crystals will look better next time, lol.
I think both crystals came out awesome. 🤗
Aaaaaaaaall the glitter 🤩The bigger pyramid looks STUNNING on a black background! And honestly... that mushroom bottom part? I would have used it wrong too 😂I was so confused when you said it's wrong until you showed how it's supposed to work lol great video! love all the finished pieces :) including the big crystal
SO much glitterrrr!!! 😂 The pyramids worked out really well so I definitely want to make some more of those. The mushroom base confused me so much, haha!
Wow Becky, that looks like so much fun 😁 good job!
Thank you! 😊
the blue diamond for me!! But I don't think I'll ever bring myself to do resin, so you're braver than me there
That one turned out very pretty! Glitter seems to be the way to go, lol. Resin is fun, but there is a big learning curve for sure! 🙈
these all look amazing, wonderful job ☺☺
Thank you so much! 😊
Becky youve made such a mess!
But it was fun!
Id love to see you evolve your techniques.
Resin art is so relaxing to watch
I was cleaning it all up for a lonnng time afterwards, lol! Resin art is definitely more relaxing to watch than it is to do. 🤣
I love all of them! No fails if you had fun 🥰
Thank you! A couple didn't make the video because they were spectacular fails - I didn't mix the resin enough and they didn't set....at all!!! 😭
These are great! I made a paper weight at school when I was 11. We used spray can lids as a cylinder shaped mold and could bring something from home to put in it. The boys put bugs and army men and things in there's. The girls put mostly flowers or leaves but I had a sea shell I liked, that I put that in mine. From memory I had to do something a bit different with mine because the shell was heavier than the leaves and flowers and we didn't want it to sink to the bottom. I can't really remember and I don't know what happened to it. Mum probably decluttered it along with old toys and things over the years, so I can't look at it to see if it was done in layers. I'd quite like to have another go as this though.
That's so cool; I never got to make anything like that at school, though I seem to remember making a candle in a tin can, lol. I'm getting into the resin now; it's fun but super messy! 😂
@@BeckyTregear It was in my intermediate school woodworking class in '81. We did woodwork, metalwork, a bit of leather work and this. I think it's changed over the years. Neither of my kids got leather or resin but my younger one did a little bit of electronics and also worked with colored acrylic plastic.
Well that was a fantastic video! I really, really enjoyed watching you learn and evolve as you went along, the end results were amazing!! I'm quite fascinated with resin, but boy does it look messy lol so I'll just stick to watching as I don't think I could handle all the sticky mess hahaha, them crystal ones would look stunning with some dye :D
Thank you! I need to make some dye crystals, now that I've got the hang of it more. Oh it is SO messy! I had sticky blobs everywhere but thankfully the silicone mats caught almost all of it.
well done Becky , you made me giggle . you done a good job and lovely progess. looking forward to seeing some more. from you xxxx Happy swatching
Thank you! ❤️
Loved all the pieces Becky!!! Really enjoyed this
Thank you! It was fun (and scary) making all of these. 😄
At least you got the learning experience out of it. When you find an almost complete set of new art supplies at the opp shop it means someone tried it once and didn't like it.
Haha that's true!
Oh, that resin looks really beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much!
Honestly I wouldn't know how to use the mushroom mold correctly either 😂 you kept mentioning that you were using it wrong and it got me so confused like how are you supposed to use it then 😂😂💔 but it did turn out soooo adorable!
The base of the mushroom mold was super confusing! It really feels like it should pour in the way I did it the first time, lol.
Lovely haul hun I’m safe from the cyclone 🌀 that hit us hear in Townsville I am north of the system we lost our back fence a couple of frangipanis fell down the house is fine.. lots of fallen trees in our beautiful city we got power back on 7:30 pm last night thank god cause the humidity was just horrible it almost put me in hospital.. just letting you know I’m safe hear in Townsville North Queensland.. ❤❤❤😊😊😊cxxx
Thank you for letting me know, I'm so glad all is well! Those cyclones sound really scary! ❤️
I was looking at the Let's Resin UV kits on Amazon. I didn't find the right kit for me. I don't need the beginners kits, as I have a pretty extensive resin stash, but do want the resin and the UV light. I actually don't think resin really expires. I haven't had issues with using mine over a few years. It has been fine. I don't even know if mine has a date on it. I have the giant 5l bottle.
I always do use gloves but occasional near the end I can touch a stirrer with my hands just to take a short cut. I remember getting some on my hands and it burnt my skin. It looks innocent until that happens. I did actually clean my hands immediately after, but once it's on your skin it's already too late and the damage is done.
The one that wasn't mixed properly won't ever set. I had placemats and I didn't mic them correctly and they were sticky. I resined over to seal in the issue but they just leaked. I had to throw them out. It was a $100 mistake once you factor the resin and placemats cost 🤣 they looked beautiful and 4 if the 6 are ok, but it was too risky having the chemicals leaking forever. It never set.
@@lozantoninocreations Yes, some of my duds still haven't set and I don't think they ever will. I'll have to chuck them out, doh! 😭. I think UV resin lasts a lot longer than Epoxy, regarding shelf life. I'm sure it's more of a Best Before date but I've heard others say that it expires eventually too. I don't know enough to say for sure, lol.
Nice unpacking 😊
My 1 main criticism of the kit and not you is that a face mask was not included - the kit is aimed at beginners who may not realise resin when curing is very, very dangerous , lung damage etc.
Nice collection of moulds and nice that crystal moulds were included.
That's a very good point, they should definitely include a mask. I wanted to be sure to show I was wearing one because it's such a crucial piece of gear.
Exactly- yes, you did great showing your face covered, gloves, and advising the actual respirator, at least they included gloves.
Resin is tricky, I don’t use it 😁 but it’s fun watching you playing with it - I don’t think you can really go wrong with resin, your creations all came out well - flowers in resin blocks are always pretty.
So Becky.... I saw this video yesterday, and there was something that kept bugging me and bugging me, and BUGGING MEEEEE, to the point that I just woke up and my first thought was this video...
I'm obsessed like that. 😅
I HAVE NEVER EVER WORK WITH RESIN, SO I DONT KNOW WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT BUT....
You know the mushroom, right? That you wanted to have the white "circles"? .... well there should be a way cause clearly, the design is there!!!... But how?! HOW, HOW, HOW?!!! 😅😅😅
Soooooo.... listen, again, I KNOW NOTHING about resin, but when I woke up and kept thinking on the HOW, HOW, HOW?! 😅 I wonder: is it possible to mix a little bit of resin with white and then use a pipette to pour it in the "circled" design drop by drop, as a very thin layer??? Maybe it will stay in place, then after it dries you pour the rest in red?!
Oh girl, please, if you try that and it works, let me know.... I am dying to know.... and if you try it and doesnt work, also let me know... or if you manage to do it any other way... PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!!! 😅😅😅😅
As you can see, my OCD is eating me alive here!!! 😅😅😅😅
And btw, very entretaining video as always! ❤
Haha don't worry, I've been laying awake thinking about that mushroom lid too! 😂 I think the only way to do it is over many days, filling in one circle at a time and having the mold on an angle so that particular circle is flat. Let resin cure, then repeat until all circles are filled and dry. THEN fill the rest of the mold with red dyed resin. Sigh....it'll take a whole week just to do that one mold, LOL.
Enjoyed watching this but it confirmed my feeling that it is just not for me! Too fiddly and messy, I guess. Loved the pyramids and roses and shiny things are fun anyway. I don’t know that I could have stuck with it for three days, so well done you!
Haha yes it is extremely messy - I had stickiness everywhere despite my best efforts. 🙈
