I feel like I found my guru so glad I found your channel
Maybe you could use some silicone and mold that plastic piece, then you won't even have to throw it away. Just thinking. It's an amazing idea, ty for the share
@@SteveMcDonaldArtsandCrafts I was also watching the whole thinking you should do a resin pour one time to seal the sand in there so you never even have to dump....maybe do both of these ideas together! cast a silicone piece and then fill it with a resin sealed sand block for weight!
@@annelisecochran9291 But that kinda just defeats the purpose of the vid “saving resin”
~Have you ever tried pouring resin into sand? It kind of absorbs/wicks the moisture💦 in like a sponge🧽 + it doesn’t allow for that little Harry Potter “hidey-hole” to stash dr💊gs(🤫⬅️😂I’m totes joking....but like: a 🔑/🔐/battery-operated tea light candle🕯/love letter📄...ok maybe that’s a bit cheesy) but maybe if you were to utilize the same grade of “hard”plastic cut to fit inside/over the sand and then seal with UV resin/or some other sealant{Zero clue if that’s a word/or if that’s how you spell it🤷🏻♀️} hot glue gun?silicone??...idk...seems like it’d be more trouble than what it’s worth; and simply to what? Make it heavier/have more weight...you know?? Anyway, geez...I digress....sorry for rambling on & on!
I was thinking the same thing. Some silicone putty would work great for making that
That is simply genius, and on bonus if its bit sea through you can later add led lights if you wish to turn it into lamp 😎👌
Love it!
Ooh! Think how many island pendants(getting mold next week!) I could make with that amount of resin!! Those little machine coffee pods would work too!
I love the box you keep your jewelry pliers in.
Very good idea. I think I'd opt for stones instead of sand to avoid getting sand in the resin, but I'm clumsy.
These would be great for a fairy garden or fairy house for a plant! ❤️❤️❤️
Your houses could be a little village under a Christmas tree💖. Thnx so much for this awesome idea
Philadelphia's sales will be going through the roof :D
Yes yes yes...I did a pyramid and put a clear party cup in the center and it did save a ton of resin...then I was able to put fairy lights inside the party cups, which you can't tell there's a cup in it, and then the lights are gorgeous...but I'm very new at this so I still need alot of help...these are GORGEOUS!!!
Fun idea! Saving resin is always a good thing. Battery operated tealights might also be an option to safely illuminate the house molds.
this is so cool omg, I like the light-up house lol
I just bought a square silicone mould to put inside my pyramid but haven't tried it yet. Those little pots are a great idea for smaller things and didn't know vaseline would work - thanks :)
Love the little box you keep your pliers etc in❤️and patiently waiting to see you doing this method with a pyramid
If it's something where weight is a concern, filler material, like foil or clay works as well. Makes it more stable than empty space too
I just happened on this video and became a subscriber. I use water bottles for the pyramids and that saves lots. Thought you were very clever with your little pots. Most of my work is clear with flowers but I can save big on the pyramids. Good day from the USA!
Ohmygod thats absolutely genius! Thankyou so much, that will make casting my mushroom pot lids so much better, I swear it takes like 80ml alone
Absolutely love this idea! Can't wait to try it!

The 3 houses on a base with lights and some of your tiny fence pieces etc would make a fantastic night light, or each one by itself for a small light. Brilliant idea!
Brilliant! Love the color choices too!

This is such a great tip. Thanks for sharing it x
Brilliant idea.
Great idea, I will definitely be trying this.
Thanks for sharing this fab tip. I am just starting out with resin and this tip will be extremely helpful x

I think those houses are so cute! Great tip to save a huge amount of resin. Fantastic video as always 💜
Great idea Steve. Thank you for sharing. I've watches a few of your videos, subscribed today.
I’ve used this same mold for cement. It makes really cute houses.
That's fantastic!! Thanks !!
That's a great tip, thanks
Wow what a fab idea
This is brilliant!
Outstanding. Thank you!
I love your tutorials!! When I joined your channel you were at 8k now you're at 19k! Your channel is growing fast! Best of luck!!
Thanks for sharing, good idea of saving resin. 👍🏽
Mate, love your videos!!!!.... you really inspired me to be creative with resin. Thank you so much!!!!....🦋🌻
Those look great and I can see it looking good on a nice piece of dark wood with the lights inside.
I hope you had a lovely Christmas and I wish you a happy and safe New year.
Your videos give so much pleasure to me. You are very talented.
So very happy for discovering your super brilliant channel....
Excellent tip! I'd seen something similar done with the pyramids for lights installation, but hadn't thought about smaller molds. I've got quite a few small cake molds that this method would save a bunch on!
Thanks, great idea
Great video - thank you.
As always brilliant tip n video.... thank u kind sir x
Another great idea 🤩🤩
This is a fantastic idea (and I love the lights in the house)!! Those house molds are great!
That is AWSOME cuz in that space you can add different things such as color changing lights!!
I'm a fairly new sub. The more I watch you honey, the better I like you. Your quirky personality is rather like my own. Maybe you better hope you're not as crazy as me lol. (in a really fun way of course) I love the way you've come up with these money saving tips. Brilliant. Thank you for all your hard work you do putting into these videos and ideas for us. Happy New Year.
Thanks for sharing ❤️❤️❤️
That is a great idea. I usually use the larger moulds for my leftovers and although that gives an interesting effect, this is a much better idea.
I can't wait to see the pyramid mould video!
Thank you so much. I have the same mold and only done once as it was a lot of resin and very heavy. Now I can. Thank you! X
very good to know, thank you
Bloody brilliant!
that is awesome! cant wait to see the pyramid tutorial
Great idea 💡
Oh wow, that's an awesome idea!
Thanks for this. Will save me a lot of resin. I’ve also subscribed x
Great idea.
Great tip! 😃
Great tip! Thank you ☺ Also looking forward to the pyramid tutorial 😃🔺️
Genuis idea steve
This is a good idea ive been mixing my resin with salt it creates a good effect and makes me use less resin and makes my piece lighter but when I want a clear piece I'll try this method
