I love Claire! I ran into her videos a year ago believe and wanted jesmonite so bad. I did ALOT of research like enough to hurt my brain. I found Aqua Resin and got the kit. It's one of my FAVORITE mediums. Sanding with water is my favorite lol. Glad I found you and another brand.
Yes!!! Claire is awesome!! I still haven’t played with the jesmonite that I purchased!!!😳 I need to get on that!!!
I'm in the process of beginning to try this craft form, so I'm glad I found you. Thanks for the tips and demo!
I would love to see what you make!! Tag me on Instagram if you post your project!!!
You are so funny, I love the vibe.
Yessss!!!
New Subbie!!!!! Thank you for this video ♡
ArtsyMadWoman got me into Resin which transitioned into Jesmonite
Crafty Claire Corner enhanced my love for Jesmonite ten fold
YOU just gave me my first Eco Resin tutorial!!!!!! Gonna be fun here too!!! 🤪
Ummmm… hello! Love your energy!!! So excited to have you join my DIY Crew!!! I’m the same way, every time I find a new creator I love, I find my new hobby😂😂
Great video. Claire inspired and helped me a lot too. Love your take on these eco resins. Especially love the one with the little drip pattern. Thanks for sharing
Hello Sarah happy Friday I tired resin when I first started crafting way back when I made keychains earrings and trays but this is the new way new stuff new ways thank you for sharing always love watching you .Hope you and your daughter have a great weekend .
Yes, totally new to me as well!! I will share all my experiments with you!!! So far I really like it!!
There is one supplier in Auburn Washington that has jesmonite now
I just watched your video after doing the tray mold for the first time after getting my kit today, and yes they lied about the quantity needed.
Okay, I am relieved a little that it wasn’t just me!! That does mean that we can’t get the qty they say out of the kit though….🤔
I've never heard of that product. Looks like fun to work with. Thanks for sharing.
It totally was Nancy!!!
First of all, I LOVE CLAIRE! That’s probably why your video showed up on my recommendations. LOL. She got you a new sub! 💜 I haven’t tried EcoResin or Jesmonite, but I have tried Aqua Resin. It’s probably the same type of thing. It’s amazing! It almost makes me want to throw out all of my epoxy resin. I also have a huge amount of Hydro Stone that I haven’t tried out yet. I’m hoping it’s the same because it was only $48 for 25 lbs. Thanks for sharing your experience with EcoResin! ✌🏼💜🛼
I know, right? Claire’s awesome and she keeps making me want to try new stuff!😂 I’m psyched that you subbed and joined my DIY Crew!!! We have a ton of fun over here!! I’m definitely going to be posting videos on jesmonite soon!!! And I’m currently making a cake stand out of resin that will hopefully be amazing!!!!!
How did u like the Aqua Resin?
@@snugglebuns6969 I love Aqua Resin! I still haven’t tried out the Hydro Stone yet because I’ve had to do a few sewing projects for gifts. Casting a gorgeous owl mold that I bought from Devon Dotting using Hydro Stone was on my list for this weekend, but some household maintenance issues that I needed to take care of came up. 😕
Not familiar w HydroStone . Haven’t tried the Eco just got yesterday and it’s missing all but the dye and the powder I have molds but it would have been nice to get a FULL kit as it was described lol
@@snugglebuns6969 Bummer! Sounds like someone was having a major “Beckie Leigh” moment when they packed your shipment. I hope the rest of your goodies arrive soon! I would imagine that Aqua Resin, EcoResin, and Jesmonite are all basically the same thing. I totally loved the weight & cool, smooth feeling of Aqua Resin, and that’s the same thing I’m seeing about the other two products. I’m tempted to go ahead and mix up a little Hydro Stone for a small mold just to get a feel for how it behaves. LOL
It's the same here in Australia for trying to get Jesmonite. It's non existent here.
Currently im trying one that seems equivalent. However i cant actually compare as i cant get Jesmonite.
Other ones that are Australian made but very expensive.
I am currently packing my house to move and I still haven’t used the jesmonite I got from Etsy!!!!🤪
I ENJOYED WATCHING SARAH
Thank you!!!😊
Sooo happy I stumbled on u! Claire is AWESOME..(and that’s an understatement she is just 1 BEAUTIFUL PERSON! I myself stumbled onto the eco resin from Amazon - thank u for making this video!
So brave! Looks like a lot of fun 😊👏
So fun Julie!!!!
Just found you when I was searching for info on JDiction ResinCrete (similar to jesmonite from what I've found). I love it! It's fun but they don't offer big bags of it yet. I love Claire too. Subscribing to you too. Love your personality coming out in this video! ❤
So happy you found me!! I purchased some jesmonite from a seller on Etsy but I haven’t tried it yet… I’m thinking of making some planters…?!? And I’ll probably start with a small tray to test the waters!! Claire is my girl!! She always makes me want to try whatever she is doing 😂😂
You can get Jesmonite with free shipping for around $50 the starter kit is great you get 5 pigments a mould the base and the liquid and gloves and $10 off your next order.
This is a brilliant review. I’ve been wanting to try this
OMG YOU ARE HILARIOUS! OH and a great artisan, too! Thanks for testing out the ERCK...eerrrck...haha! Ok being serious now....I've been casting using cement (not Cement All) and it's been ok, but wanted to try some new mediums. Thanks for taking the plunge for all of us. :) (I think it's kinetic sand you're talking about.)
😂😂😂 yesss that is what I was talking about!!! The words are always on the tip of my tongue!!!
You’re so artsy! 😂😂😂 ok so I’ve been working with resin for a few years now and I’ve never heard of this eco resin!! Holy cow! So can you still use a torch or heat gun to remove bubbles?? That’s important to me! Does it feel as durable as counter top resin do you think? I just love watching you!! You are so fun!! 😂🎉🎉🎉💕💕💕💕
It definitely has a more chalky texture than resin, so in that sense it’s not like epoxy. But it’s heavy and really strong once it fully cures!!!
The other great thing is you can use all of your resin molds with this stuff so that’s also very cool!!
I’m so glad you looove me😍😍😍
I love Claire! I just found you Sarah. I like Resin Crete. So far I’m totally pleased. Amazon.
I love Claire too!! My channel is different because I do a broad range of DIYs…or at least I try to😂😂😂 I need to try the Crete!! It’s on my list!! Welcome 🤗🤗🤗
Woo Hoo! Love this!!! After using your mold for the eco resin, can you use it for epoxy resin as well?
Do you have to seal your projects? What do you seal them with?
Yes you need to do two coats of an acrylic sealer.. there are a bunch of options
Sarah I love this...
Thx Connie!! I miss you!!!❤
@@cansarahdiyit I know I miss you as well . My Son went home today and I was back in the craft room this afternoon.
Non-Newtonian fluid is the expression you were looking for
…wait during which part😂😂😂
@@cansarahdiyit The science fluid/solid bit... Normally the kids in school do it with cornstarch and water, if you come at it fast, it acts as a solid, but then you jiggle it and it flows like water. Your Eco Resin was doing that at one point and you were trying to come up with what it's called :) Right around 7:48
Ok glad ur happy, I did receive my kit yesterday however, I did not get the extra goodies(molds, spoon, sticks sandpaper etc) I thought it was supposed to b include ? I WANT TO PLAY W THIS just as bad lol .. so we will see thank u for the video
Did you mean cornflour (corn starch) and water?
No that’s not what I used, I’m not sure exactly what this is but it’s some type of plaster
Yes!!!
Very nice, I love them. Does it break easily?
Just found your channel while researching jesmonite and eco pour... I also just found for the first time the same product you tested here..... on a scale of 1-10 10 being most likely. How likely are you to purchase this product again? 🤔 you are just a hoot to watch.
Becky, I’m so glad you found me! If you’re in the states you know it’s hard to get jesmonite and if you find it it’s pricey!! I would definitely buy this again but I didn’t like the colors I got with this so I think I would try it with different colorants. Lucky for me I am a shopaholic and have options so I need to try it again, I actually have jesmonite also and I should probably do a comparison video
@@cansarahdiyit lol I'm also a shopaholic. If you haven't done a comparison video I would love to see one. I know there are many people out there that are confused on what this medium actually is. And they don't know which type to get as there are many options. The group I'm in was asked to come up with a name for a product that is a jesmonite alternative. This alternative is now called Resin Crete thanx to our group. Resin Crete is ECO water based product. Available in USA and the UK. I just thought I would share this with you.
Is this safe to use in the home? Compared to epoxy resin?
Takes a total of 315 gms if you do with jesmonite
How much time do i must wait to sealer?
I would let it cure for 24 hours before you seal
How about Aqua Resin?
It’s definitely on my list to try!!! 😊
I think you should be sifting that
I totally agree!!! I just grabbed a mesh strainer at the dollar tree too!!!!
Eco yellows very fast so keep away from uv and such.
Thank you so much for the tip!! I’m so new I literally know nothing!!!
Please sacrifice one piece and drop it on camera. Thanks
To see if it breaks?!
@@cansarahdiyit Yes and under what circumstances
@@libbyannbest1723 well, I have jesmonite waiting for me to use/film so perhaps I’ll try it in that video, to compare the two. From what I understand jesmonite is very hard when fully cured.
