Thanks!
Anytime ♥️♥️♥️ you totally just made my morning 🤗 Thank you ♥️
So happy to hear that 😊
💜 Beautimus 💜
And I totally loved the music too! 😂
Awww thanks Rosa!! I’ve been thinking of updating this video but it still seems to work. I’m so glad you commented… Thank you ♥️
Hi JaDel, I just have to say your video editing skills are very cool and ands interest. I started out using the toothpicks then my husband made me a similar set up with nails and wood but the nails would get resin build up so the tooth picks had the advantage as you can easily replace them. Now I use a silicone pointed mat. I also cover mine to keep my lovely dogs hair out. A heat gun helps remove drips on the back if you get them.
This is, I think, the 6th video I ever made. I’ve been making a new one. I’ve changed a few things since this was put out. I’ve been experimenting with silicone…. As soon as I can get behind it I’ll post an updated video. Im so glad you came by to give me some advice. I just think the world of your expertise and art. Don’t be a stranger 🤗🤗🤗🤗 Thank you ♥️
You make everything look so easy. I like the way you correct your dot painting boo boos with a fine paint brush and black ( background) colour paint. I think many of us over think what we are doing instead of simply enjoying what we are doing. The more we do, the better we will get I hope. I really like your work, especially your how too tips.
Awwww thanks Lyn! I, too, am guilty of overthinking things a lot of the time too. But sometimes the easiest answer is a good one eh? Lol. You know? I made this video over 2 years ago. Now days I use a metallic black paint and a dotting tool. I turn those rocks over and dot each imperfection… blends right in and done. Im so glad you found it useful. Thank you ♥️
Best video I’ve seen . Thank you for keeping it simple !
Thank you so much :)
gracias Jadel Roc 👏👏👏❤️
Anytime ♥️♥️ no problem 😉
Be careful blowing into resin. No matter what resin you use that are nontoxic. I always wear nitrile gloves respirator and ventless goggles. Spraying alcohol takes out bubbles and heat guns and it's way safer than straws. Be careful in worried you are not using proper precautions and teaching others without all proper safety.
Thank you so much for watching and caring about others. I advocate reading any and all safety procedures and directions that come with your product and following them. This video is intended to show you how I do it. I'm so glad you are being safe. You totally rock!
Wow
♥️🤗
Excellent Video! Smiled the whole way through and your tips are amazing!! Thank You!! You've got a new subscriber and don't even know what else you've got yet!

Thanks you
I’m so glad you found it helpful. 🤗
Love your work!!
Thank you so much Sharon ♥♥♥
Very helpful!
Awesome 😎 Thank you ♥️
I had limited time with my granddaughter and she was interested in resin. So we made some coasters. Oopsie! I used the same part twice! My clue was it never hardened. Yes, move part used immediately And go get you glasses so you can easily read labels! Great video on resining and I love ❤️ the paw print!
Ohhh nooo…. That stuff is so finicky. The parts really have to be equal. I messed it up once.. it was so gross on my rocks 😂😂😂. You know what though? You and your granddaughter will tell the story of gooey coasters forever now…. A success story may have been forgotten ♥️ this is why I laugh at my mistakes and try to cherish the hard times. They seem to stick better ♥️
I was using varnish and did one side at a time on rocks. Had to wait at least a day or more, depending on weather to flip over and do other side.This method beats anything I’ve seen, including silicone spike mats! Blessings so early in the morning and Blessed Thanksgiving to you and yours. I am thankful for your great, funny, humble, very instructive, videos! P.s. I managed to save the molds and the resin, I used the part I scraped out, used equal amount of hardener to pour into a pinecone in a bottle which my husband turned into an egg and cleaned up the molds in an alcohol bath.
@@beverlyaten1775 well Thank you ♥️ I can’t believe you saved it… now that’s what I’m talking about 👍🏻 I’ve never tried pouring resin into molds and making things with them but I’m very interested. I hope you have the happiest holidays. I really do enjoy your comments and fun personality.. thanks for making this day begin for me with a grin. You rock ♥️
Thank you! Going to try this.
Good luck 🤞🏻❤️

I’m reading this as I wake up this morning... you’ve already made my day. Thank you ♥️ Rock on!
Thanks for this! I'm not even looking to resin anything anytime soon, but this was really funny to watch. Great editing skills 😀
Thank you for that :) You just made my day! Rock on !!!!!
Love the rocks design.... im yet to try resin coat on my works... this video was informative...
happy to find your channel.. stay connected...
Thank you so much! I started out using Liquitex Gloss Varnish. This Art Resin is so good I had to share. It's a little bit of a process but seems worth it. You can practice with a couple of test rocks before subjecting your art. Just make sure it's completely dry first. Thanks for watching and commenting! I love to hear it :)
Great video and a great resin product. I can't use straws. Feel dizzy after blowing so I use a lighter or a torch to pop any bubbles. I know that requires more safety concerns but it works great. Love the toothpick idea.
Thank you ♥️ I’ve began using torch too. I need to make another video showing some of the tricks Ive learned since this one. Lol, this was my 6th UA-cam video ever. I could update it eh? I’m so glad you watched. Thank you ♥️
@@JaDeLRockshay video actualizado? Es que no lo encuentro
I just ordered the resin so I am looking for tutorials on how to work with it. I like this video because there was no talking and it got to the point. Maybe I have ADD or something but when someone is droning on and on I lose interest and think "get to the tutorial part!". Thanks. Wish me luck. I know there will be trial and error.
Oh we have so much in common!!! Gooooooood luck 🍀 you’ve totally got this!!
Hi Ja Del! It's Kim again. You are slowly talking me into resining my rocks!!! I'm almost out of Liquitex varnish, so I figured now would be the time. I even made a list of stuff to get @ the dollar store. Now all I have to get is the resin! Where do you get your4s? amazon? Now all I need to do is get someones painted LOL I've been so busy in the garden with plants, When it gets hot then I'll have something to continue lining my borders with them. I have about 12' ofr rocks so far. Keep up the good work. You are an inspiration to me & others🌈🌈🌈
I just ordered some from Amazon the other day… here’s the one I got if it helps:
ArtResin - Epoxy Resin - Clear - Non-Toxic - 16 oz (8 oz Resin + 8 oz Hardener) (474 ml) www.amazon.com/dp/B07KGKRV16/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_6GB43QAE6GPQAYRY4CN1
What do you use to repair a mistake that is dry. Dripped ...???
You are amazing 👏❤
I’m not sure what you’re asking but I want to help. ♥️ give me just a little more info on this question 🤗
Thank you for this step-by-step process. I’ve been trying to decide whether to use resin or not and how to apply it. Can you use this process inside your home? Worried about the fumes while the rocks dry.
You are very welcome. I do it inside my home. You can smell it if you are doing several rocks so I do it in a back room that can be unused for most of the day. I do wear a mask just in case. Read up on the brand to form your own opinion.. but I haven’t had any problems with Art Resin.
Thank you! This is the best how-to for resin I have seen. I was so nervous about it before I watched this…not anymore! And love the sound effects 🤣. Any tips on adding crystals to a rock, before or after doing the resin?
Thank you ♥️ I really appreciate that. This was the 6th video I ever made and I’d been thinking about redoing it. I always resin over the rhinestones. I have several videos where I do it. Here’s the first one I did.. I think, lol. A real pretty one is that Mardi Gras mandala. But here’s my first… ua-cam.com/video/8puy1q2xkWc/v-deo.html
I’ve seen it done before and after. I always resin over them
Beautiful piece…I will try it after I am better with swooshes. That center dot is great, a very happy accident. I will resin over the crystals. Seems like they shine more with resin over them. Thanks so much for the quick reply!
@@terischrader1243 awesome… anytime ♥️ just holler if you need anything 🤗
@@JaDeLRocks just curious if you have any issues with yellowing over time with Art Resin? A couple of people have mentioned it to me lately.
@@terischrader1243 I don’t have an issue with it but I don’t put them in direct prolonged sunlight either. The only problem I have with yellowing is certain white paints…. Mostly the cheaper brands that I love and the posca pens. Here’s an honest answer…. I’m not sure! Because I’ve noticed yellowing on white paints… but is it the resin, the paint, or both? Maybe the resin yellows but I don’t notice over darker colors. I did a one year outdoor test and I refuse to recommend any brand of any coating for direct sunlight. Indoors and even in shade spots outside I’ve seen no problems with this resin. It won’t last forever but I’m on year 2 in the shade and year 2 indoors. That’s as long as I’ve used it. So far so good. 1 year direct sun was a total bummer but it’s super hot and humid here in Arkansas too. But the few in the shade still look good.
Iin your opinion: is resin better for kindness rocks that will go in the garden to prevent fading? I started with spray gloss last summer, then in the winter moved to Duragloss paint on, then a Duragloss triple thick paint on, and next I am trying the resin. But I see you did another tutorial on Liquidtex. I will try that down the line Thanks much.
I’ve had a test rock out in the elements since October. So far the resin is holding up.
If I’ve already sprayed this with an acrylic sealer gloss finish is it going to have a counter reaction if I resin it using your method?
I would test it on something first. I have done this and it’s 99% of the time worked just fine. But I will admit that once I tried putting resin over a varnish and it didn’t want to cover. It was like water and oil or something. So.. my safe answer is : yes you can but try it on a less important rock just in case.
Do the toothpicks ever stick to the rocks? I just saw the rest of the video. Good job!
Yes they do, I give a tiny twist pull or nip them off. I now cover any marks with metallic black by folk art… no varnish. It blends in super well.
What kind of resin did you use to touch up the back?
It’s just Liquitex gloss varnish. You know? I now use just metallic black paint when needed. Seems to be just fine.
where did you purchase your paw print mold?
Those were all actually real rocks. I had a triangular one then just regular river rocks for toes.
Do you seal the works before adding the resin?
I do not. I use acrylic paint on my rocks. Mostly FolkArt and Apple Barrel because that's what's easily available to me. These are the cheaper brands of paints too. I sign the back with a white Posca paint pen usually too. I've had no issues with damage. I do make sure the art is completely dry. If you have super thick paint or dots I would wait several days. My work is usually pretty light and thin so I don't have to wait long before applying resin. The best advice I can give is to do "test rocks." Grab a couple of broken rocks and dab some of your paints on them to represent your typical works of art... then when you feel it's dry give it a go. If it smears or smudges... wait longer and try again. Good luck :)
I use to seal them first.. I got lazy one day and didn't and I loved the results. Your just have to see what works for you :)
Unfortunately I came upon this video after I resin my rocks and now I have that puddle under the rocks. Any idea of how to get rid of them? I used the electric sander to try to sand it down. Trial and error for me and now I know an easier way to do the resin and LOVE the toothpick idea!!
Thanks
You can sand it down and re-resin I believe. Next time use less… even if you use my toothpick idea. It’s actually possible to do them without a puddle. It’s taken me loads of practice but I can do it now without any repair to the bottoms. Not every time but far more often than before. I still use the toothpicks because repairs are far easier in my opinion. For now, just sand down your puddles, repair any paint that might have gotten sanded off, and resin again. Let me know if I can help 🤗
@@JaDeLRocks Thank you so much. Guess I know what I'm going to be doing on this cold day in Florida. Lol
@@leigh335 I’ve got snow n the ground.. I’ll be painting today 😂 Mother Nature knows that spring is in a week right? 🤣
@@JaDeLRocks I think Mother Nature is showing us all who is boss. We were almost 80 yesterday and tonight we are supposed to be 27. You need to do a Mother Nature rock. Maybe she's jealous.
@@leigh335 LOL!!! you’re not wrong 🤣😂🤣
Hello from Montenegro JaDel Rock.❤I am delighted with your videos, your presentation is fascinating and easy to understand) If possible, I will be glad to answer my question: How do you prepare the stones before coating them black? Do you coat them with resin only once to achieve that wonderful protective glass effect?🫶
Thank you ♥️ I only paint them with black paint. 😊 easy 😉 I only use resin to protect the paint and make it shine.
@@JaDeLRocks 😍Thanks for the answer. Have a nice day and wish you inspiration in your 🎨art
@Drakonhulio thank you so much 😊
