Mica Powder + Rubber Stamp Resin Tray Tutorial | The Otherlings Shop

Here's a quick tutorial on how I make designs in epoxy resin using mica powder and rubber stamps :)
Supplies used:
- Mica powder
- Rubber stamp
- Silicone mold
- Amazing Clear Cast epoxy resin
- Alcohol ink, resin pigment or acrylic paint
- Plastic cup with measurements
- Stick for mixing (popsicle sticks work)
- Butane torch for bubbles
- Tape for fixing mistakes
- Respirator mask
- Gloves
*Always use PPE when working with resin and mica powder. If you have any pets, place them in another room away from curing resin and/or mica powder.* When I made this video I didn't know mica powder is very dangerous for animals and humans to breathe -- I should NOT have let my cat even be in the same room. Protect your pets!!!

That is a brilliant idea! Picture that beautiful gold design against a black background.

Thank you! :)

Super cool results!
Though it could have been a 5min video without all the stirring.

I never thought to use stamps! Now I need to raid my mother's stash next time I'm in town lol

Love this video! I was thinking there had to be a better way short of buying those metal stickers for resin. Where do you get your powder?

[@theotherlingsshop9676]

Thanks for watching! I’m glad it was helpful :) this particular powder I ordered from AliExpress but I have used Finnabair mica powder from Michael’s also and it works just as well!

@@theotherlingsshop9676 thanks for the info! 💜

What is the first two powders you used? It that the mica powder? I’m looking for something to make my resin seem pearly but still clear, just like yours. I use art resin. Is that just the art resin and a little amount of mica powder, to keep it transparent? Xx i love your work and videos!

I love how this came out, but when I tried it, only half the mica would stick to mold. Any suggestions?

[@laverngordon]

Could u try embossing with this said gold mica powder please

[@InvisibleSeductress]

Embossing works very well on cured resin. I love it for trees. I'd be scared to ruin the mold if done straight on the mold. But would be interesting 🙂
