No sanding required? This method is much faster than using glitter. The outcome is superb. Can you put vinyl on it and if so do you have to epoxy over it? Thanks.
I have been doing the mica powder but no matter what I try, I cannot get the mica color to stay at the tip and end of the pen... any thoughts? Also, what size rubber bands do you use? Thank you as always, you’re amazing!
I honestly have no clue what size rubber bands they are, they are just some old ones that I found laying around the house. For the mica powder, I keep adding more Mica powder at the end of the pens as it spins and as it tries to recede from the ends. As the epoxy thickens, it won't recede from the end of the pen.
Hey love your videos!! I have a question on your preference. In a previous video you used a reusable plastic straw instead of wooden dowel. Which do you perfer with the epoxy pens?
Don't think that was my video 😉 Lol. I have never used a straw but I think a dowel would be much better because it seems like a plastic straw would bend easily. Thanks for watching!!! 🥰
Hi, I am in the UK and these inkjoy pens are hard to find as if I type inkjoy, it’s the other type that comes up where there is a plastic ring bit at the top around the hook/ pen anchor thing it also has a black bit at the top not a silver one like yours, and when I finally found the last lot on Amazon it was 19£ for 12. Is the any other pens this can work with? Thanks
Yes ma'am, there are other pen brands out there that will work. As long as you can take the pen apart in a similar manor as these pens then it should work for you. I haven't personally used any other brand but there are definitely other options out there for you. 🥰
I just cannot find a dowel that will hold the pen without breaking off the little thread piece inside and still hold the pen ☹️☹️ I’m so frustrated and I have 50 pens! I really want to be able to make them.......
If you are getting epoxy inside the dowel, you can vaseline the dowel and it works perfectly! I am like Kristi, I use 1/4 in dowels, and works great! I have had to add a little bit of painter's tape to stop them, but it works great!

What are you using to hold your pens on your spinner?
It's a wooden dowel rod.. here's the link where I purchased them Wooden Dowel Rods - amzn.to/37WBrOD

Yes! After the epoxy/mica mix dries, you can vinyl the pen then add a final coat of epoxy over it.
How long did it take to cure? Love your tutorials! You are awesome
It took about 8-10 hours to completely dry but 72 hours to cure. Thanks for watching!!! 🥰🥰🥰
How do you get such a smooth finish. I am having trouble with that I keep getting waves in mine
Just put another coat of epoxy over it and it should smooth it out. :)
@@KristisCustomCreations thank you

Really? What size dowels are you using? I use 1/4" and never have any issues. Is it possible that epoxy is getting inside the pens?

@@sikmuga Thank you ;) Vaseline does work perfectly also!
