Why Didn't I Think of This Genius Idea Before?

- Hi Everyone. Why I didn't think of this before amazes me as I have made lamps many times and made plastic pots to mould them in. This genius idea has not only saved me a lot of time and effort, but has also given me perfect finishes to the resin projects which I love. We all have a lot of resin moulds, looking at them differently can open so many opportunities and ideas.

Resin is an industrial chemical and as such should always be treated with respect and the manufacturers safety advice taken. Here is a video I have made on how I keep myself safe: • Stop Making Yourself I... - Навчання та стиль
Love the way you chuckle at yourself when you stumble tiny bit. Just darling. You sharing your art videos with us is much appreciated.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE that dress lamp… the body bust is a bit weird… but still looks good… you are so creative Steve… I just love watching you work!!!!!
The dress lamp is lovely, and the body lamp looks like a woman made of stars in the universe. I wish you had a smaller body mold for it, since it got to large and distorted in the resin dome.
The pearly-dress one looks wonderful. The other one is a little distorted and I think may have looked better in a cube or rectangular prism mold.
I watched the lady from “pouring your heart out” use a paint pen on her resin mold. I thought for sure it wouldn’t work and would stain the mold or ruin it. I couldn’t believe how well it worked! Could you try some ideas using a paint pen? Her projects are really big and I like the smaller projects you do.
I was going to let you know Steve did one about a year ago, but I see Steve beat me to it, lol.
I absolutely love that channel - she’s such a delight. I actually found Steve through one of her videos where she mentioned him & how much it helps to have other resin artists also testing products & techniques. (I don’t remember which one it is, but she does definitely mention Steve’s channel along with a couple others).
Do you have a link for the this please?
@@jomerrick33 I was thinking about aiding your link request and realized I wasn't sure which comment it was relating to. One you can find by simply entering 'pour your heart out resin' into YT search or on google, the other with Steve's link, just go to YT search and enter 'using paint in resin molds' and it will list several of Steve's videos specific to that and many other artists teaching it, too. Hope this helps.
Her name is Julie and she knows her stuf..
@@sacrebleu1371 Thank you!
Gees that's really cool! Really love the one with the dress 💖💖💖👏👏👏🇦🇺
I'll be doing this with flowers from my sister's funeral. For bigger flowers I'm using my large pyramid mold. She died unexpectedly from a massive stroke due to covid. I've paid my niece a nice chunk of money to help with all the costs. That's why I haven't sent your Christmas gift yet. I'll be sending that at the end of this month. There always seems to be something that comes up, preventing me from sending it out, but I'm making it a top priority now. Have I mentioned that I love your videos? Keep up the good work 👏
The fancy dress looks very ghostly. Nice effect!
I have to say that you are the resin King, Steve! You do so much and get every bit of use out of your resin that it's possible to get! I like that about you. And I have to say that the prom dress in the dome came out beautifully. You create such awesome things. I love your channel!
I love how you teach us to think outside the box with our molds. Love the dress light.
Found this video thanks to UA-cam recommendations and I gotta say, your personality is wonderful!! I am definitely a fan 🥰 the moment you said “squidgy widgy” I knew I needed to hit the subscribe button, & seeing how gorgeous these turned out just confirmed I need to watch more. I love experimenting myself, so seeing you use molds not *quite* as intended is so cool!!
The dress one reminds me of some sort of Gothic decor, idk if Gothic is the correct description, but it's really interesting and beautiful!
I love watching your videos because you offer so much variety and out of the box ideas!
I am still dipping my toes into resin, so I am not a daredevil yet,
I love these projects. There are so many possibilities you could do!
Thanks for sharing
Awesome Steve!! What I love about your videos is that you make them short. Entertaining to watch xx
Great humor you have!!! Hello from Canada. Love your chanel.
I do enjoy watching you craft. Thanks for sharing.
This was fun watching!!! Thank you.
Very nice, thanks for all your great videos. 👍
I love all the ways of using this mold! I love to repurpose things, and I love how you think outside the box! 💯💯💯💚💚💚
Wow, the wedding-dress looks really beautiful and the the top and the skirt flow together wonderfully !!!
Wow!! SO PRETTY. Love the idea of using the inside part of the dome mold as a standalone mold!!!
Ringy-dingy👍👍🔔🔔🦋🦋
I love watching your tutorials. Thank you x
Got to say Steve the dress lamp is beautiful! Love it! 😍☺️🇬🇧
Thank you Sue
I like them both. Very cool!
Awesome steve McDonald
Omg, that dress lamp is stunning!!! Thank you for sharing Steve!
Lovely Steve!
Thank you for an informative and beautiful demo. If I was interested in doing resin craft I would use your techniques. The domes are two different types of lovely.
Blue tac is a great idea i always use leftover pieces of polymer clay
Awesome! Bigger dome with some flowers around the dress 😘
Lowering the tiny blue lass into the mold... getting some 007 Villain vibes! Lol
Nice looking
Very interesting results! They turned out great! Thank you Steve!!
Brilliantly done.. so loved the end result!!! ✌🏼💗😊❣️
I love the dress one, that is gorgeous!
Amazing
Nice
Great video. Very interesting! I may have to get that dome mold. That's a great mold to have. I like the dress mold a lot. You have some very unique molds.
I think I wouldn't mind having a real dress that looked like your art piece 😄 so gorgeous 😍 lol that was very interesting. Absolutely loved it great idea
I love the one with the dress.
Love the dress. I think the body would look perfect with out the dome. Love you're channel.
HI Steve, A big 👍 up to you. you used your molds in a different way & I thought the end results are Just Puka looking good on you 👍✨ Lin
1. I absolutely want to use resin more. Thank you for the mold link!
2. I 100% subscribed because of "Squidgy Whidgy" HAHAHAHAH
Such a cool idea!
Absolutely LOVE the dress one. Such a great idea for a unique use of those molds! Love it!
New to your page just love ❤️ it
You could use hot glue as an alternative to blue tack.
like the dress tfs
You have links in your description but I only found the link to the website with many resins, what one was the exact resin you used that produced very minimal bubbles like this?
New person here to your channel. I watched a few before and like you stuff. New to this Type of crafting. Any idea on how a beginner should start out please? Also how did you start out yourself in crafting?
Still using paintbrush to apply pigments Steve? You really should try to make up sponge. Game changer. Same for glitter.
Nice 👍🏻🤩💕
"Just tap that out gently..."
I think we have different definitions for "gently" 😂
I loved the video so much I watched it twice ~ LOL
What is spray you used in the first? And why?
Gorjuss Steve ❤️
What silicone spray do you use
Ooh names on the right for a change! 🤣
coming soon to a thrift store near you. :P
Do you have a shop where you sell the items you make?
I have to make all my molds.. But I've got so many videos in my cloud that I don't upload, because it is hard for me to explain how o and that works cuz of my seizure disorder.. But iI'm trying to get my channel together, but solo Artista, no family or anything, on a budget of 800$ us, but ill be Igniting it up..I love it very cool
I am also epileptic and then had a traumatic brain injury that I am still recovering from. I stutter, my hands shake, I say the wrong words, but some can be fixed in editing (which I barely know anything about) and some I let go. The only way to start is to start! Don't wait to be perfect. Just go! Share! Be brave! It's good therapy too. Btw...I do it all with my phone and free software too.
TY for the uplifting comments!!
I SUBBED.. Can't wait to see what all you have. TY
Can you try one using a face mold?
Are there any no toxic products? If so were can I purchase the product?
Please explain where the join button is I can not find it
I use car polish to polish my finished resins, and it works great. Not sure if it has been tried before by anybody, haven’t heard it mentioned before?
Waooooooo nice to know that someone uses that too....I do
I've used it too 😂😂😂
Tap that out gently!
- BAM BAM BAM 💥
@1:18 gently lol
i cant see description~?
Jusst FYI, instead of a flame, you can also use a mist bottle with just rubbing alcohol in it. Spraying it on top also removes all the bubbles and has zero efect on the resin as it evaperates so fast and you dson't run the risk of burning the resin, burning/melting the mold... or setting anything on fire. You know some pigments you use in resin are flamable? I learned that the hard way! I use to use a long neck lighter to pop bubbles on my resin until one of them turned into a candle and I opted to go NOPE. Alcohol it is!
I thought you were adding a brush in the thumbnail.
A pencil eraser removes blue tack as well
Just tap that out gently, then bang! Bang!
Been doing this for months.
WHAM*WHAM* tap them out gently.
...bro!?!
You love glitter…. Go figure. “Squidgie-widgie” yup.
Very interesting 😂 reminds me of that Christmas movie with the leg 🦵lamp. I can't think of what it's called.
