    I don't know if it was the dark blue background or the beads or the low light, but most of these looked a bit muddy. Maybe if the beads had been divided into colors and poured and mixed in bands it would have seemed nicer. Did you have any problems with bubbles from the inside of the beads coming out in the resin? There are white or reflective spots which I can't really tell if they are beads or holes.
    I wonder what the effect of strung beads on clear nylon threaoad would be inside resin....hmmmm

    They turned out really cute! Thanks for the video.
    I really prefer the relaxing music. It's funny that you asked ; the first time I watched it at the beginning with the more upbeat music, I thought "I am really enjoying everything about this except the music" and I almost turned the volume down. But of course I was afraid of missing anything you said, and then the music changed 😅.
    I watch all of your videos regardless of whether or not I like the music, you have a unique take on resin art and you always sound so reassuring, I never feel like I am going to screw something up. You are like the Bob Ross of resin art, and I mean that as the best possible compliment.
    (also thanks for the tip about the toothpick in the top of the pyramid. I'm still kind of new and for the life of me I couldn't work out why some looked broken while others didn't. I low-key thought it was because I was using glitter for the first layer 🙄😂.)

    Steve, dear, I am 60 y old and I listen to Slipknot for 'easy listening'. Seriously! I raised my son on heavy metal, rock and roll, country, rap, reggae, Motown, 70s, 80s, 90s, and all the way up. Eminem and Lil Wayne are my two fav rappers, Slipknot I've mentioned and Gary Moore, Enrique, ZZ Ward, Roy Clark, Waylon, Raymond Fairchild, Santana. The list goes on. After saying all of that, ;) I think the easy listening one soothes my soul.

    Hi Steve, I used seed beads in a resin bead mould , the seed beads that I used are called mahatma too beads, and on the purple ones that are slightly translucent, they looked fantastic, also my other ones in the mahatma toho seed beads are garnet color, not real garnet but they look like garnet, and look great as spheres,, or no hole beads in fact, I made some no hole bead spheres with a small amount of glitter in the no hole bead mould in silver cured it with a home make 8mm glitter bead of a differant color,, then added clear resin with a touch of glitter,cured that and when near the top of the mould,added glitter differant color again and filled to very top of mould with the glitter mixed in a bit,and cured I made 20 beads with my uv resin and my uv lamp, turned out stunning, I realy love working with resin there's so much you can do with it , the music is lovely but I prefer more upbeat, like euphoric pop,not heavy not metal , euphoric classical is beautiful ,take tare Stay Safe.

    opinion: It’s a little intense watching the high-speed animation, so I like the calming music then. I also like the music at the beginning when words aren’t so necessary, or maybe a simple caption, like, “You’ll want molds, beads, and resin, plus these tools.” I especially like that you combine music, silence, and speaking (for detailed instruction, or humour, or commentary) in the same video. Many videos just use one, and your videos are more balanced. Nice work.

    I’m wanting to make an egg shaped stone with resin and crushed tumbled peridot. I’m thinking I’ll place the stones into the egg mold until it’s almost full and then fill it up with resin. Stirring occasionally to mix it in until it’s full. Then stir again to try to remove bubbles. I’m hoping this works. Has anyone else tried this and if so how did it work out for you?

      @@cathyrodammer4190 can I just mix the bubbles out after pouring it into the egg shaped mold? I’m afraid if I mix it before pouring, the opening won’t be wide enough to pour the mixture in. Even with a funnel. The opening is not very wide. The stones are very small but I don’t know, I’m just worried about it flowing all over the sides of the mold while pouring or it getting stuck in the funnel.

    The egg. for any "deep" moulds it works better if you layer it. Ie. Build up the layers and let the layers "cure" before adding the next layer. This way the inserts, in this case beads, will be trapped and not sink to the bottom. This works , I promise:

I am wanting to get myself sorted with some starter kit stuff, as I have nothing. Do you have a video listing essential kind of things, there are so many resins to choose from and im completely confused. I am getting wooden sticks etc, and have seen a "reversed letter and number mould set on amazon, which I am thinking of getting.

But I do like the jewelry pieces a little better. Why do you think they all sank to the bottom of the egg? should you have let it sit for a few minutes before you added the beads orrrrr?
