I think whoever said the thing about "stealing ideas" has lost sight of what a creative community is all about. It isn't about making money and being capitalists, we're not selling ideas, we're inspiring each other to make beautiful things and to be happier in our lives. Perhaps that person should go outside, touch grass and have a think about the "value" of their contributions!! (Sorry, but I had to pause the video and say that!)
Yes, and an odd thing to say to a creator who has shared tons & tons of his own ideas and experiments. 😊
Agreed! With that in mind, we creatives ALL steal ideas every day! Even the complainer who said that!
@@alcg3981 Agreed! When I try and have a go at an idea I've seen someone share, I'm not "stealing", I'm /inspired/ which is absolutely intended as a compliment! 😁
@@G.G.8GG Couldn't agree with you more, sounds like a case of sour grapes to me!
Totally agree and we're in the year 2024 as if someone somewhere hasn't already had and tried your idea before you did anyway .
I think the beauty of UA-cam is everyone sharing ideas. As a fellow maker I feel a sense of Pride when somebody uses one of my ideas
My husband was hearing your voice as I was watching and he said “ your your has a great idea, something you could do as we travel in the Rv” I love watching you and he loves hearing your ideas! 😘
Great idea , Steve. Can you imagine making those & placing cinnamon or any other essential oils on your Christmas tree during Christmas ? Thank you so much for sharing sharing! Your house must of smelled lovely with those scents. Sandalwood is my favorite! ❤
Sandlewood is my very favorite, too! 👍💕
What a fantastic idea 💡 !!! I will definitely be making this !!
To that person that said you were copying an idea is so disrespectful !! Creative people & groups are for sharing ideas & everyone puts their own spin on things. They need to step back as someone said & ask themselves what are they doing when they make something that has been shown on any of these channels !!
I'm going to use your idea, Steve. I hope you don't mind.
Drill a hole for some string/ribbon would make a ,great air freshener for the car
I used to add E.O.'s to plaster of Paris items when I was doing them years ago. I completely forgot about this until watching this video. Thank you for reminding me!
I love them. Thanks Steve!!
Wow what a brilliant idea!! I love that they are rechargable too. Just ordered my first resin creat so I'm looking forward to creating some of these...
Stay safe, you do you, protect yourself and stay crafty 👍👍🛎️🔔🦋🦋
What a great way to add lovely scent to a room! And most things have been done before, so inspiration to add your own twist makes your own! Heavens people need to chill. Love watching your videos please don't take their silliness to heart!
What a great idea!
Thinking smelly hearts for Mother’s Day ❤
Why did I read that as smelly farts? 😂
Would love an update once you know how well these sold.
Great idea! Thank you! I think I'm going to make Christmas decorations for the tree and use peppermint
I posted a creation that holds essential oils in resincrete to a few Facebook groups a few days ago. It’s a moon candle holder with resincrete on the top and bottom, resin in the middle layer. It turned out beautiful and works wonderfully holding onto the essential oils.
Oh I’d love to see that. Where do you share your creations?
Well, that’s awesome to know! I’ll be trying this. Thanks Steve.
❤ Very good idea!!!
Very fun!
This was an excellent idea I didn’t think you could do that with this material resin Crete. I need to try this. I love learning from my creative family across waters😊
Love this idea!!! I have wondered if that would work. I have plenty of essential oils!
That's a fun cool project. Might have to do that with my daughter.
Love it
What an absolutely fantastic idea Steve. I truly hope you sell loads and I will definitely be making some for myself to put in the car the bathroom the bedroom my craft room you know the idea LOL
What a cool idea.
Adorable! Love them
Great idea Steve
Excellent! Thanks for sharing!❤
I love using stamps in resin and eco, it may have been you who gave me the idea I can't remember lol and your pieces have all come out great, I really want that dog mould now
That's really cool! I didn't know you could do that with Resin Crete! Thanks!
Such a great idea. I think I will make some Christmas ornaments and add pine scent or apple cinnamon.
Mixing resincrete always reminds me of pancake or Yorkshire pudding mix.
This idea looks a good one. I'll be giving it a go over the weekend.
Wonderful idea❤❤❤😊😊
What is 3 pounds 75 - about $5.00??? Those are so cute - great idea!!!
I can't wait to try this! 😍
Great idea ❤❤❤❤
I did this with air dry clay but the smell didn't last long. now I know why. thank you so much
Very cool idea good for craft shows
Great idea.
I'm from Australia and here we have Ecrylimer (like resin crete) and they actually sell molds for air fresheners to do this :) They have instructions aswell on how, and you add 2% fragrance into your mix, and then pour. It doesnt effect the cure at all, and they smell amazing for a long time! I have the ones I made in my car :)
Very cool!🎉🎉
This is such an awesome idea! Thank you
Such a good idea. I'll definitely be making some for my summer Market. Grazie.
wonderful idea❤️❤️‼️
Love this Steve. I make resin Crete car air fresheners... You got me hooked on resincrete from the get go
❤❤❤❤❤
Steve you answered my question, would it hold essential oils for a period of time❤ Thanks so much for sharing with us, I greatly appreciate your experiments and creativity!!
Great idea. Thank you❤❤❤❤
Yes I remember you doing this years ago as you said Steve. In fact I made some inspired by your video :) great makes
❤ AMAZING IDEA!!!! I love it. You're such an inspiration. Thank you. ❤
Okay, now I watched the whole video 😂 This is such a wonderful idea, I really love how much customisation and flexibility you have with this! Making an airfreshner for someone, absolutely bespoke for them; their favourite smell and colours with a mould that they would like too. Absolutely fantastic idea, I love it!
Steve, please can you let us know when your TeeExpert kit will be back in stock on Amazon, I've followed the link on all of your recent uploads and haven't managed to see it in stock! Your kit is very popular, my dude! 💜
Hope you are well, thanks for another fantastic upload! ✨🍀😊
Brilliant video thanks for sharing x
Good idea ❤️👍
Lovely idea thank you
Cool idea ❤
Ooh i need to try this🤩
I used to have a few of these plaster style air fresheners which had magnets on the back so you could have them on your radiators and the heat would help dissipate the scent. (Feel free to use this idea 😉)
Great idea💜,like that the scents can be freshened up😊
I sold a lot of small pine trees before last Xmas and used into the tree’s oil as my demo. If you have an artificial tree you can place it near by and it smells of pine.
Can you drill holes in resin Crete? Thank you. Love watching you create and discover!
Have you tried dipping a good size Rose petal for earrings.
🥰🤩
You do know you could use canvas paint in resin I do it comes out great love it ❤❤❤
❤ I have Christmas tree decoration made of terracotta. I drop essential oil onto it
❤️🙏🏻❤️
Steve have you thought of using the water soluble oils? Allow for more uses than essential oils and could be added to the water before adding to the resincrete. 😊
How about putting a magnet on the back?
Brilliant idea and they look great. I notice you said you put your casting powder pieces in your curing machine, I don’t have one, so will they be alright on a curing mat? Love your videos.
Great idea as always - I have just started experimenting with resincrete so will certainly try this out.
Please could you remind me what’s best to seal items with to safely use as mini planters.
Many thanks xx
You need a warning to keep away from birds as well. Now i have to get some resincrete. I make soap... so i have fragrance oils a plenty. Every once in the while i order from a wholesale store online... so i can get legit essential and fragrance oils. You are right about fragrance oils damaging surfaces. I have premeasured fragrance and been meking a batch of soap.. had it eat right through the plastic cup. Messed up my table surface a bit as well.
People have the same ideas quite frequently. Great job!
What a wonderful idea Steve!
Could 2 hours outside in a plastic container replace the curing machine?😅
You don need a curing machine at all! A low temp oven (~ 200-250° F). It's just a way to quickly dehydrate (and "set") the Resin Crete, so that it absorbs as much EO as possible.
So do you use the Jdiction now, or just tree-whatever?
Lovely
What gorgeous colours
I actually have 😢 question about what to use to seel a photograph to a stained wooden box. I'm using it for my fiancees ashes as he passed away 2 months ago.
@jenniferorange457
I am so sorry for your loss! 😥💔
Personally, I would use a few thin coats of Mod Podge. Just follow directions on the bottle, then look up "sealing photos" with Mod Podge, here on UA-cam.
I thought the stamp in eco resin was genius dangit..I tested it out months ago but I wasn't following your channel then!! Thought I had an original idea *cries*
@MyLast2Braincells84
It's okay! Creative minds often think of the same things! 😊 I believe @Claire'sCraftyCorners has been using silicone stamps in and on a lot of her projects; both in resin and in casting compounds, for a good 2 or 3 years: others, even longer. It's a great idea!
These things come round time and again, I've thought of various techniques over the years only to discover I wasn't the first. Equally I've seen rather direct copies of things I've made. I freely share tips and techniques and those I'm absolutely relaxed about these days. But I get you, it's a bit galling when you find you weren't the first to think of a really great idea. But that's often what makes it such a great concept when more than one creative comes to the same idea.
I never thought of oils in the resincrete! I've been seeing these ads on youtube where you take a block of wood that costs $30 and stick it in your car and you get 60 days of scent. But you could be fancy and buy the stone instead of the wood and it was like $50 I think? Here, you just made them for practically nothing (a whole bag of resincrete in my area is only $30) and once you make them, the only cost is reoiling them every few months.
I think I am about to slowly drive my husband crazy, because I personally love patchouli and he thinks it stinks. But I'm going to hide these around the house
I LOVE Patchouli too!
I've been wanting to try less for like 6-7 months... but I thought of mixing thr FO I ro the resin create .. but I don't wanna waste either product especially the expensive FO.. lol
Just stumbled across your videos - and this one is exactly what I just tried to do! This week I soaked some resincrete pendant pieces in fragrance oils (used in candle making). My thought is to make car air fresheners, but wasn’t sure if the scent would last or for how long. Thank you for having a video for this! Do you have any followup for tips or experience with how well (or not) this works?
AWESOME!! FIRST COMMENT
Lol
Also, Steve, can I ask a question?? When do you sleep with your UA-cam and your craft fairs, commissions, and family makes! You have a fantastic energy and I wonder how you fit it all in!!
Is it possible to add spray glitter to resin before pouring into mold
I’d spray the glitter into the mold, before adding the resin.
I did experiment with this once but it wasn't successful. I've always just used loose glitter.
@@TheCraftyWitchUKthat might be quite interesting!
Hello Steve. I’m hoping you can help me out. I’ve been using ResinCrete for about 9 months and I love it, but recently there appears to be something off with the bags I’ve received. I mostly use the regular 8 minute work time/30 minute demold variety. I had two bags delivered last month that have a zero minute work time, the mixture gets super thick right away (as if I’ve added maybe 3/4 of the water needed). Even adding more water and stirring vigorously doesn’t make it liquid. I have to “pour” is so quickly I can do little with it. I contacted the company and they sent me two new bags that are exactly the same. Have you ever run into this problem?
I’m forever over pouring! BTW, don’t pay any attention to the negative comments! Who cares who came up with what idea?! We all learn from each other every single day of our lives. Geesh! Just let the negatives go; your soul will thank you. 😊
Does anybody know if essential oils can be added to polyurethane varnish? And if the fragrance will last a long time?
Is there anything special you need in buying baby wipes for cleaning? I hesitate because I thought they had aloe or lotion etc? I've been looking for alcohol wipes that are just alcohol but haven't found any.
Many medical wipes are alcohol (but check as some have chlorhexadine in too - ex medic here). Generally these are very small though. Like swab sized. I do use them though and they're really useful. I also spray isopropyl onto little swabs to use. Or dip cotton buds into isopropyl. I think Steve has mentioned some awesome big wipes he uses (from Amazon I think?)
@ixykix Thank you. All the youtubers say Baby Wipe but no one explains which one. I do have the Big Wipes that he recommends but they go dry on me quite quickly and leave a film I don't particularly like. So wanna try a baby wipe. I've looked at so many and a true baby wipe I'm not sure I'd use, at least in USA. So I'd like clarification if it matters what kind to use. Thanks for the response.
Maybe you should put on hearts with paws do not use near pets as pets are highly sensitive to smells
You can over pour me 😊
To be honest anybody who says on art videos you took somebody’s idea is an idiot for the simple fact is it all ideas for the most part have been done multiple times most people would never intend on stealing any ideas nor is anybody getting any real credit for it it’s a video and people need to start realizing thatit’s entertainment simple those people are just trying to start drama where there’s no drama because they have nothing better to do in their life than to create activity and others to satisfy their own need for validation
If you don't want anyone copying your idea, keep it off social media...
Those are not essential oils.
I have to laugh (sadly at that), sorry. But sounds like one of the people that tried to start an creators war between content creators. I don't think they know a chunk of resin and paint pour creators, personality. Or how these kind of art forms are created.
I'm not sure if I can explain coherently Resin art, similar like acrylic pours, soap making, there scrap booking, then the combination of materials to create what is a hod pog of techic's that look gorgeous, eraser carving, I could go on, its huge. But majority is not knowledge taught in schools, or something anyone can go to college and learn. These are new, most college art teachers that I'm Aware of would never give a class for, they focus on technics they hope will be archivable, or get the students a job corporation, like animation, video games, movies, advertisement, design. I could see maybe one or two schools helping people develop and learn to make comic books (maybe). Art for books. But the art offered in schools is limiting.
So, content creators like yourself Steve McDonald, have helped to create and keep inspiring others to look beyond the limits of that small box. Instead of doing, they stole my idea's drum, most content creators like yours truly, help motivate each other, and us that get whats going on.
try not to let those that just want to eat popcorn and watch drama unfold. They can go to the easily freaked out people, there is content creators that dedicate themselves to casing drama or trying to ruin other peoples day.
there are 2 content creators that will post things just like what they said, and wait to see if they were able to get the drama reaction that is their content. then upload to get clicks.
i hope i made sense, just ask yourself, where would those out of the box art forms be, if others couldn't learn and grow with each other? I personally love that you do more than just resin art. I to, always have art on the brain.
I can help, but think that if you put a craft idea out there, in you tube, that someone might try it. If you don't want anyone to try your idea don't post or besure you put that in the post. I have met a selfish crafer before.
Steve From what I have seen they have stolen your stuff
