  • This video is a resin jewlery tutorial for beginners. The tips, tricks and techniques I use throughout this video are easy to follow and will show you how to fill an open backed bezel, closed bezel, make cuff links and cast in a jewlery mould for a flawless outcome. Additionally, I show how easy it is to dome without using a doming resin, how to clean up your bezels if there is a over spill and how to turn the finished pieces into jewlery.
    All the materials that I use are below in this description. Have fun making your resin jewlery and it doesn't matter if you are a beginner or more advanced there is something here for you. Please leave a comment or question in the description and I will ensure to get back to you.

    Although I often talk about health and safety in my videos, please make sure you do your own research and take the relevant precautions to ensure that you are protecting your health. I am not responsible for anyone using resin and not taking the correct safety precautions. Resin is a chemical and as such should be always treated with respect and the manufacturers safety advice taken.

    Hi Steve, love you’re videos. Just sharing a little tip I use, when putting your stickers in, I tend to pop a tiny amount of resin into the mold first, heat to remove bubbles, add my sticker then pour the rest of the resin on top. Still learning myself, just sharing the love.

    You have no idea just how useful your videos are. They're simple basic easy instructions to follow along & remember. Not to mention thorough. For someone about to start it's wonderful. Plus they're just plain entertaining to watch. I've really enjoyed them. As evidenced by how many I've watched before even getting around to trying my new kit.
    Now I'm going to watch this one because we have the same mold.
    Then I'm going back to the video I was about to watch of yours when this was recommended by UA-cam.
    Love the experiments and money saving tips too!

    This has been very helpful, thank you so much for sharing this. One thing I wasn't clear about, did you let the original resin in the bezels cure for a while before adding the doming resin? Or do you make all the resin, including the doming clear at the same time, then add it after you have filled all the bezels if it's been about 30 minutes so that all the resin is at the same "age"? Thank you so much!!
