The songs are so funny. 😄❤ That's not a fail at all. The butterflies are gorgeous. You've done a brilliant job! I wouldn't know where to start. 😍❤️
Thank you so much Nik 🥰❤️🥰 I honestly didn’t either and it’s definitely not easy trying to put something together that you can barely see and that is supposed to be hanging up but there’s no way to do it because there are a million tiny strings that you have to somehow connect 😂😭
About 25 years ago I was asked to make a floor to ceiling beaded wind chime for an entrance light. From start to finish it took 2 weeks and at the time, hot glue was my best friend. My dad was the one that relayed the request to me so he sat and cut 10 foot lengths of fishing line for me (120 of them). To keep them all in line he suggested I tie them, I laughed at him. I had a large 4" hoop that I tied them on, hung that off an old lamp and started beading, took 100 beads per length to go from the top ring to the main frame. I tied and hot glued every piece to it. First length I beaded down 110 beads, next 120 and so on till I finished the entire piece. It stood 12 feet tall and they still have it hanging to this day. So gather, tie and glue (HOT GLUE) each and every piece.
That sounds amazing Lynn do you have a picture of it?
The hot glue won’t melt the fishing line? I want this to work because I love wind chimes and I really want to make my own
@@TheBlueElephantGifts I had a few that did a bit of a shrivel when I started but I slowed things down and it started working perfectly. Yes I do have pictures of it, I'll have hubby dig them up when he gets home. 💜
@ oh I am so excited to see it. Thank you Lynn 🥰🥰🥰
Butterflies mean a lot to me.They remind me of my late aunt who LOVED butterflies. I love these and I love that you included how sometimes things don’t work out when we try new things.The butterflies are so pretty!
Thank you so much Renee 🥰❤️🥰 they are special to my husband too. Every time he sees one he feels like his mother is looking in on him ❤️❤️
Those butterflies are absolutely stunning. Love the colors and extra embellishments. Just my 1 cent
Thank you so much 🥰❤️🥰
OMG my twin sister would love the wind chimes. She ❤❤❤ butterflies.
Very good job.
The molds are stunning. I love wind chimes too and the actual chimes they have were quite pretty sounding when I was messing with it. I need to figure out a way to make it work
It doesn’t matter if it hangs or not….your heart is in each one of those butterflies….put it together after you think about it….and do it your creative way not how they sold it to be done….because undoubtedly that won’t work….you did a great job!!!!! Love those butterflies so much!!!!!
Thank you so much ❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰 I’ve been thinking about how I can make it work. I’m hoping to have time this weekend to fool around with it
I have had a wind chime in a box for 2 years because lost the will to live after trying to do it. I threw it away a couple of wks ago when had a sort out🤣
🤣🤣🤣I’m sorry I know it’s not funny because I feel your pain but at the same time it is
They turned out beautiful . Every time you do something new there’s always a chance it won’t work . That’s called learning , lol .
🤣 thank you so much Lisa 🥰❤️🥰
@ you’re welcome.
I've said it before and I'm saying it again. You have the patience of a saint. Id be cross-eyed just trying to see that itty bitty brush. The butterflies turned out gorgeous 🥰🤩
🤣 this one tried my patience. If I didn’t normally do voiceovers I would have had to on this one because it wouldn’t even be R rated 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The butterflies are stunning! You have the patience of a saint.❤❤
Thank you so much Barbara 🥰❤️🥰 this one tested every bit of patience I have 🤣
The butterflies are beautiful and gorgeous colours
Thank you so much Yvette 🥰❤️🥰
Gorgeous butterflies ❤ I know what you mean about putting it all together 🤦♀️
Thank you so much Kelly ❤️🥰❤️ yeah it’s definitely something that tries your patience 🤣😭
Your butterflies are beautiful Nicole, I would have no clue as how to put that windchime together......I give you an A+ for effort and patience girl.
Thank you so much Pam 🥰❤️🥰 and ya definitely not easy and with the string and beads so small I could hardly see what I was doing 🤣🤣
The butterflies are sooo beautiful!! I am so sad it fell apart…and I am really sorry I was over here laughing! Only bc this looks like me and the things that seem to always happen! 😂😂
Thank you so much Leette 🥰❤️🥰 don’t be sorry I am the same way 🤣🤣
The butterflies are fabulous! Hopefully you can get some direction to put the chime together! If so, would love to see it finished!
Thank you so much Jennifer 🥰❤️🥰 I will post a video as soon as I figure it out
The butterflies are looking gorgeous...I am sure you will figure how to ensemble it..
The color choice is awesome...wish you good luck 😊
Thank you so much Saloni 🥰❤️🥰
I love the butterflies!! They look awesome 😊
Thank you so much Brenda 🥰❤️🥰❤️
The butterflies are gorgeous! I have faith that you will figure it out. Sometimes you just need to walk away and come back to it
Thank you so much Cindy 🥰❤️🥰 I am determined to make it work somehow
Hold your head up high - You did a great job!!!!
Thank you so much Lynne 🥰❤️🥰
❤ thank you for sharing all!!!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Tha butterflies 🦋 are very beautiful 😍 too bad that you couldn't put it together. I'm sure you will figure it out! Thanks for sharing 😊
Thank you so much Monica ❤️🥰❤️ I am going to try and see if I can figure it out so 🤞
The butterflies are beautiful. I brought the dragonfly set to make for my sister. After days of trying to put it all together (and many swear words and throwing things), i ended up with an unfinished mess 😅. My sister took it and said she'd try. To this day i still dont think she tried 😂. The moulds are stunning though so used them for other things
Thank you so much ❤️🥰❤️🤣🤣I feel your pain. I want to try again and see if I can figure it out.
I have 2 wind chimes sets that I haven’t finished. The struggle is very real!!!
It really is Tracy 🤣😭
I tried one time to do a wind chime. Apparently the tiny beads are crimp beads to hold fishing line together. But I never got it to work right. Someone in my comments suggested like thin wax thread easier to tie than the fishing line. Your butterflies are gorgeous. And you tried something new so never a fail. Someone told me that fail stands for "first attempt in learning" how fitting is that.
I absolutely LOVE that ❤️❤️❤️ I would have never guessed that you were supposed to crimp them. I’m gonna watch a video that I was given that shows how you are supposed to do it but if I can’t figure it out by that then I’m just going to make my own way. I’m hoping to have some time this weekend to play with it some more. I refuse to let this beat me lol
Everything looks gorgeous! 🤗❤️🤗 Sympathies that it didn’t turn out right.
Thank you so much 🥰❤️🥰
@ you’re always welcome hun. 🤗❤️🤗
Oh my, the butterflies are beautiful and love that song🤣🤣🤣🤣. Can’t imagine trying to put that together!
Thank you so much Carolyn 🥰❤️🥰 it was hurting my brain 🤣
The butterflies are gorgeous. Watching you do the gem stones, I figured you have an enormous amount of patience. Not sure I do. I really wanted to try this kit, but now I'm not sure. You sure do Nice work
Thank you so much Donna 🥰❤️🥰 I am determined to figure out how to make this work.
I believe the beads are crimping beads to probably be a spacer for the butterf
Someone else said that too. I’m going to have to try and figure this out
I wonder if the beads are crimp beads. Knots are notorious for coming undone with fishing line. Sad that it didn't come together, but you'll get it done 🎉. And the butterflies are beautiful ❤
Thank you so much Faye 🥰❤️🥰 yeah I think that’s what they are. a bunch of other people said too (I personally didn’t even know that was a thing 🤣🤣)
Gorgeous ❤
Thank you so much 🥰❤️🥰
I did a moon and stars wind chime sort of thing, it was a struggle and I cheated anywhere I could 😅. It's assembled but I'm sure it's not assembled correctly! The butterflies are gorgeous!!
Thank you so much Lori 🥰❤️🤣 that may be the route I have to take with this too
Nicole, those butterflies are stunning! I’m so sorry, the damn chimes and assembly, are from hell 🤣. You have far more patience than me, by far. I would have handed everything to my daughter to let her figure it out. I know I’m evil 🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 thank you so much Fiona ❤️❤️🥰🥰 I am determined to make this work somehow.
I have that curing machine, I used pretty much anytime the molds fit. It is a great time safer!
I am looking forward to not having to wait a million days to finish projects now. Especially since no matter how hard I try to keep things simple they just don’t end up that way 🤣🤣
Butterflies are beautiful and would love to see the finished chime when you figure it out. It would drive me crazy till I got it right 🤣
Thank you so much Tonia 🥰❤️🥰 I am hoping to have the time to fool around with it more this weekend. I will most definitely be recording it so if/ when I do figure it out I can make a video to help out anyone who wants to know how to do it ❤️❤️
Beautiful!
Thank you so much Kari 🥰❤️🥰
Don’t feel bad. I tried a wind chime similar to yours and it was also an epic fail 😢 But your butterflies are gorgeous ❤❤
Thank you so much ❤️🥰❤️ I’m hoping that I have time this weekend to fool around with it some and see if I can make it work
The tiny beads are crimping beads to keep the pieces in place. HOWEVER, I had the idea to make a bunch of these for Christmas gifts. They do not include directions! Almost all my pieces are sitting in containers until I figure out a good way to assemble them. I have seen only 1 video attempting to assemble these. Even that was just a guess and frustrating for the creator and to watch. The butterflies are beautiful.
That statement really makes me want to figure out how to make this work to help everyone out. The idea is a really good one and I think they would look really beautiful (I really love wind chimes) but it’s kinda pointless if no one can put them together
I did one of these with hummingbirds. Pain in the derriere. They need to supply a better string to connect it all together.
For sure and instructions would be really helpful too
oh no Nicole, what a bummer after all that work 😢. These butterflies are beautiful but I couldn't even see the beads so they must have been small, just read one of the comments about them being crimp beads so that would make sense. I'm sure you will have the patience to try again. The Let's Resin curing machine looks good, I was going to get the Resiners one a couple of weeks ago, mainly because I got their Bubble Remover and Dual Head stirring machine after not being able to get the Let's Resin ones. I'm going to have to compare them though
Thank you so much Evelyn ❤️🥰❤️ I am going to figure it out. I am hoping I will have time to work on it this weekend 🤞I had a different curing machine before I started YT not the brand you are talking about but another one. Anyway if it is one that has trays be careful before you purchase it. Look at the reviews. The one I got I paid like $100 for it and within 2 weeks all of the trays had warped. I kept wondering why all of my stuff wasn’t level and for a bit wondered what I was doing wrong, I knew all of my tables and stuff were level. I then realized that the trays had warped. I contacted the company and they sent me new ones but the same exact thing had happened again so I ended up returning it. That was the last time I used one until I used the let’s resin one. I am hoping that since it doesn’t have the trays that it won’t warp over time too
@@TheBlueElephantGifts i'll definitely look into that, so far i've been just using a heat mat
Nicole, I love the butterflies! I need to know what mica you used on the butterfly showcased at 22:29 please? That red is everything!!! I've put together wind chimes before, not that one specifically, and if you didn't get it figured out yet, maybe I i could help ☺️
Thank you so much 🥰❤️🥰 I have everything linked in the description. If it’s the red one it’s the rosewood listed. I’m hoping to figure it out and try again this weekend 🤞
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
❤️🥰❤️
❤😊
❤️🥰❤️
The crazy thing is, I got the moon phases one. What's the year ago now? And it was when I first started doing resident, it was like one of the 1st. things I did that wasn't UV resin and it's still not put together. The line is I can barely see it I got a couple like bigger black almost. like volcano rock. And then those tiny silver things that look lisps almost it was.... yeah. So I get it. The funny thiis, I did it for the eclipse so I know it was the first week of April last year. LOL. you did very well i thought it was gonna be easy too
Yeah I had such a hard time seeing the line that they gave even with my glasses on. I felt like I needed a magnifying glass too see that and this little silver bead things
I tried this mold a few years ago and got so frustrated! I thought it was just me! (As a side note, what song is this? It fits so well! 😂)
The mold itself is beautiful but the lack of directions on how to assemble it is super frustrating and disappointing. It’s an ai generated song that I made ❤️❤️
Could you please tell me the name and maker of that beautiful dark red , on the butterfly? Thank you
I have it linked in the description of the video. It’s the rosewood mica ❤️❤️❤️
😮😂I think they made these molds for the sake of having an inside joke between the employees, & purposely don’t include directions!
Yup got two of these dumbass wind chime molds that came with directions, let’s just say, THEY MAKE NO FREAKIN SENSE AT ALL & THE LEAST BIT HELPFUL! There’s another resin channel & the girls name is Meghan, she did this about 2 yrs ago &made it her mission to get instructions so she could do a video on how to assemble n put them together.
Well the 1st try she posted was like ur sitch, all uneven & nothing was where u would imagine it would be/how it should be!
I can tell u from my instruction booklet, those lil mini bead jawns,
are crimping beads to keep the chimes in place on the fishing line.
U have to squeeze em closed but GENTLY Cz they’re Garbo.
Anyway let me see if I can’t go find her channel & video of when she finally did figure it out& I’ll come back n share the link for ya.
I mean it didn’t help me worth a damn but I’m left handed so Everything’s already backwards to me…
& Me being Me, has Zero patience so I landed at “F All That” & never attempted again!
Ur butterflies are gorgeous & I think u could leave out the stupid mini wind chime bits & just hang the butterflies at different lengths so it spirals down type thing. Idk u seem wired like me where u would rather find a simple version that works & be done with it but either way I will come back n link her video in case I don’t know how to read the room & maybe u actually love to be challenged!❤😊
I’m left handed too and the struggle is real to try and either figure out how to do it backwards or make your brain think like a right handed person.
I have to admit I do actually like to be challenged and I am determined not to let something beat me. I will figure out something eventually it may not be done how it was intended to be done (quite honestly the picture make no sense to me and I can’t zoom in close enough to see exactly how it was done) my guess they didn’t include instructions for 2 reasons the first you listed above and secondly it’s probably not even possible. They stole a pic of a wind chime and then just made the molds to match it and threw a bunch of stuff to make it a ‘kit’ but there is no way that it’s everything you need. I just don’t see how that’s possible. And this stupid little crimping beads I don’t see how that would stop anything from moving the wire is so thin and the beads are smaller than the holds in the molds for the string to go through. I will figure this out though……somehow
If you are interested, I made a Halloween wind chime. I copied the link to my video and at about 18 minutes in is when I start putting it together. It's not the greatest, but maybe it will help. ua-cam.com/video/yBcP7uxEyuk/v-deo.htmlsi=5SUVKB8hMHnSCaos
The pieces look AWESOME by the way!
Thank you so much 🥰❤️🥰 I will definitely check it out. I appreciate it 🙂
Here we go…okay Hope this is the video where she got it right but I wasn’t gonna rewatch it to find out 100% but she shows u her instruction book so this should help u some. If it’s the one that turns out all CaddyWompus, let me know n I’ll go back n find the video after where she shows u assembling it again.
Anyway I hope this is somehow helpful to u girl!
Tell Willow I say Her eating habits are slightly strange… but fantastically entertaining & I cried laughing then forced everyone in my house to watch it too so I had an excuse to watch it AGAIN!!

Thank you so much Allyson I will watch it and let you know. I appreciate you linking it for me.
She is a weirdo for sure 🤣🤣🤣
@@TheBlueElephantGifts I am determined as all get out too, just not for things like this!
It makes my head want to pop off!!
I get ridiculously frustrated @ myself, even when it’s Not my fault or in my control. My inner voice doesn’t give a Flyin Squirrel Tale!!
Guess being determined 2
“Not Accept Defeat” turns on me & causes me still 2 Be Defeated!
I know that doesn’t make Much Sense, but at least I know my Leo tendencies are functioning at Full Capacity!! Lol!
Hope u figure it out & make it ur
B👁️TCH!
(Had to get Cre8ive as I Got yelled at by YT’s Community Guidelines 4 cursing when I tried to post it)
Next, Mass Produce them & make a version that don’t require an Engineering Degree to assemble it!
Have a great week Nicole!
