      What resin do you use? The 30 min green? 24hr glitter? And 3hr coating? What kind of brush are you using to apply the coating resin? How many coats does it usually take? Do you sand between? (Sorry for the ton of questions, but you said we could ask 😉)
      The end result is beautiful, and I would like to attempt something similar. Any info you can share that may increase my odds of success would be greatly appreciated. 💕

      @@jencstephens5452 the green is Zap 30mins epoxy resin, then the deep pour resin was Vista Ocean and the coating was Alumilite coating resin. Only did one coat as turned out pretty nice. But sometimes i apply multiple coast then you must send after each coat. 180grit will do fine. For the brush it doesn’t really matter just use something what doesn’t loose the bristles easily. You can even use the foam type of brushes. Some people use hands with gloves. Due to centrifugal force it will even out. And yes you have to run the lathe at lowest rpm (mine is 50) until the resin cures partly that it will not run once the lathe is stopped

    David, your English is fine. To be honest, you speak English better than a lot of people out her where it's their primary language. I love how this piece turned out, especially since the flowers maintained their color. Other projected I've seen with flowers, end up with the flowers becoming dark and losing their color.

    Very nice piece. The glitter makes it look like dust motes of pollen in the air around the flowers.

    I once knew a man who was from Hungary but lived in the UK since his late teenage years. Your accent reminds me a little of him. I always thought it was so cute when he would say a word that started with a v but pronoun it with a w. Like, instead of vacation it was wavaction. It wasn’t all the time but every once in a while he’d do it. He was a sweetheart.
    Also, that vase is beautiful. ❤️

    Your W and V gave you away. Loved this vase but as others said. A longer look at finish product please. Amazing workmanship.
