A tip on the hot glue and stamp part of this video: I made faux wax seals with hot glue for christmas gift wrapping. I found a tutorial on making them, which suggested getting the stamp very cold before pressing it on the hot glue, so it wouldn't stick. I was in a hurry, and had no time to whip up an ice pack - or to wait for the hot glue to naturally cool down. Instead, I grabbed my compressed air bottle (the stuff you clean electronics with). I sprayed that on the stamp, pressed it into a blob of hot glue (I didn't put any on the stamp, just pressed the cold stamp in the blob), then sprayed the blob and the stamp with the compressed air again, and the faux wax seal was done in under a minute. No air bubbles, just a perfect imprint of the stamp, without waiting. For my purposes, I didn't use resin in these, just some gold paint, but they could have been used as molds, too. I didn't have those frames for my wax seals, but the hot glue hardens so quickly with the cold air, it didn't have time to run away.
Those are so cute! The minute i saw the Dragon & Wizard ones you did, I immediately thought of a cute idea. I was thinking that you could make Checkers for a Checker Board, but themed for kids.
Wire wrapping is very therapeutic for me. It's not hard at all. I love your videos. Your voice is soothing and your projects are brilliant. You are an inspiration to me 😅 thank you❤
They would look great on ring blanks especially the sunflower as it would look perfect with the Lalique sunflower bracelet. Pure genius yet again Wendy. ❤❤❤❤
Hiya, Wendy. What a great idea. They look amazing and I agree with you about how much better they look when you can see through them. A little tip for you, have a bowl of cold water next to you when making the resin pieces, so you can pop the mold and cured resin into the cold water which will cool both down so you can demold them faster without the risk of the hot glue being too warm still. All the best, Diane x
The moment you showed the Lion, I immediately thought of my dad. He loved the colour blue and he also was a Leo. Thank you for putting a smile on my face today. Love from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada 🇨🇦
I love all of your projects and experiments the sunflower and the four leaf clover were my favorite out of this batch. Thank you for sharing your projects with us. I always learn something new from you. Today I learned you’re a Leo just like Claire and myself.❤ ♌️
I could see the holographic effect that you were trying to talk about if you could figure out how to get that to work in a mold or a creation. That would be incredible to have a holographic like that. Beautiful work wendy god bless have a great day
What an amazing and cost effective way to make own molds,rather than waiting for days before they arrive 😅. Love your hot glue molds Ms, Wendy, and the chatms turned beautiful both the ways ,really so 3d and awesome 👌 💜💜
I always love watching you experiment! You are so creative and very fun to watch. Thank you for sharing this creation with us. I really love the charms you made. ❤
@@Toonpish if I see cufflinks on your website, I'm gonna bill you for a "finder’s fee." 🤣…. Just kidding of course…. I found these little spinning trays that have cabochons that fit inside of them… I’m wondering if I could use one to make a little mold for the stamps and then put the resin pieces back into the trays with a cabochons over it…. It might work… I may have to try it to see if it would work…
Are you familiar with mold putty? You could just press the wax seals into the putty to make a permanent mold instead of the worry of hot glue being difficult to work with when warm.
Yes I am and do have some but I don’t really like it tbh. It’s too fast and trying to get it how you want it is a pain. Plus the detail isn’t that clear with it as it’s too rubbery. But thanks so much for telling me about it. I might not have known and it’s always good to learn new things 😀💜🥰
Ill definitely be trying this technique. That flower is gorgeous. I wonder if heating the stamps before you put hot glue on would result in less bubbles.❤
I like the clover and the mask best personally but in the holographic look. It adds dimension in my opinion. Also the clover looks like a dark metallic gun metal grey coin to me with green in the background. Maybe its the camera im not sure but thats awesome.
Sorry havent been able to watched u vids for last few days im catching up on them now lol havent been feeling to good had few bad days 😢😢 but i Absolutely love love the skull and dragon and wizard stamp i never seen them before i got to find them lol. You are so talented wendy u amazing learnt so much from you. I need to make a purchase from you very soon aswell. Xx
I love the instant gratification of UV resin 🤣 I do work with 2 part, but I dont have patience to wait in most cases. These would reallly pop if you used a black background I think 🤔 Oops, I didn't wait until the end 🤣🤣🤣 (told ya, no patience 😝)💞💞
@@Toonpish check out Karen’s Intuitive Jewelry-she does soft soldering(Tiffany Method). I just saw a video where soft soldering was done on a resin piece -can’t remember who it was🥴
I did enjoy this very much thank you !I'm going to try this technique🎉. The mask reminded me of mirror mirror on the wall. I wonder if you could do something with it❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🥰🙌👏
I made a UV resin bead, and attached it to a UV resin pendant for the loop to put your strings through I just filed it flat a tad bit it worked very well. 🥰You could also probably put a bunch of them around one of them and run wire through it all the way around which might be really cool for a different effect, call it wire wrapping🤭 you also could probably attached different things in between each wire space. I'm giving myself some new ideas LOL🤭🙌❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
If you could heat up the stamp before putting on the hot glue, would that help the glue stay more fluid to get into the details, then put it in the mould of glue?
I love all your videos! But whenever I've tried to use hot glue to make a mould, it dries totally solid and is completely unbendable so I couldn't get my resin out at all! What hot glue do you use?
Then you are in for a treat 😀😀 uv resin is much better these days. I had the same problem years ago and hated it. But the new formulas and better curing lamps, makes it easier and without sticky at the end. Honestly it’s much better now 😀💜
Love this - it has totally inspired me to try something with stamps :) xxx
Brilliant 😀😀😀 looking forward to seeing your inspiration 😂😂💜
me too !

Wow that’s a great idea 😀😀😀 thank you for sharing your experience 👍💜
could you do something else with cold air? im allergic to those because of whatever they use to compress it
@@BlueSnowLeopard1 someone suggested cold water
They look like little coins or pocket charms. Cute and cost-effective. Hooray!
Definitely a cost effective lucky coin 😀😀💜
Those are so cute! The minute i saw the Dragon & Wizard ones you did, I immediately thought of a cute idea. I was thinking that you could make Checkers for a Checker Board, but themed for kids.
That does sound brilliant 😀😀💜👍
They came out amazing, like you. I like the transparent holographic look.
Thank you Rebecca 😀😀💜👍
Wire wrapping is very therapeutic for me. It's not hard at all.
I love your videos. Your voice is soothing and your projects are brilliant. You are an inspiration to me 😅 thank you❤
Thank you so much Ali 😀😀 maybe one day I will try it out 😀💜
I want to do wire and resin and these hot glue molds ! I need to spend too much to get started !! Afhh. Beautiful projects and ideas !

Thank you Roy 😀😀💜
So cool and gorgeous, Wendy!! You always come up with the most ingenious ideas!! Thank you for being you!! 🥰

Beautiful, with the black they stand out even more, the mask is gorgeous for me and the others too. ☺️ More and more ingenious. 😘❤️
Thank you so much Gulma 😀😀💜
I liked the mask too 😀😀💜
These are gorgeous love this idea. Thank you for sharing
You are so welcome! 😀😀💜
Thanks Wendy for a fun chat and great tutorial ❤❤
Thank you Jellybean 😀😀💜
Both are adorably cute but I actually prefer the black background ❤😊❤️
Your opinion is valid 😀😀💜 thank you 🥰
OK girl, let's learn some wire wrapping together! Love these resin coins!
Oh I might need a bigger house for more materials 😂😂😂
I hear 5minute crafts and usually cringe, i cant wait to see what a real artist does in 5mins ❤
Well actually me too 🤣 they are never 5 minutes and are usually not great. 👍
Exactly it takes me that long just to find moulds lol
@@suannrothacher4431 haha me too 😂

@Toonpish I LOVE this idea!! I do wax seals so i have lots of seals. Im planning on doing embossing powders with them on resin items as well!
Oh now that sounds great 😀😀😀😀 have fun 😀💜

Hi Wendy… they are so cute… I love the dragons🧡. Have you thought of soft soldering instead of wire wrapping??? I’m sure you could do it!!!

I’ve seen silicon moulds for wax stamps On Temu. They have from 6 to 30 Cavities for the wax if you need to do multiples at once. FYI
Oh really 🤔🤔 thank you for the info 😀😀💜👍
If you could heat up the stamp before putting on the hot glue, would that help the glue stay more fluid to get into the details, then put it in the mould of glue?
That is a possibility 😀😀 good idea 👍
this could be a cool way to make a custom Checkers set i know that Let Resin makes a chess set mold that could double as a checker set
Yes they do
And I think it comes with checkers moulds too??
Not sure of that but it would work 😀💜
They could be used in a travel checker set...
Oh that’s a fantastic idea 😀😀💜
this is such an amazing idea! whee did you get those frames from? i would love to try this. tyvm for showing this video.
They are on Ali express and Temu and probably other places too 😀😀 have fun 👍💜
Hi Wendy Iv been looking for a mask stamp for a while yours is perfect where is it from please😁
It’s from Ali express 😀💜 have fun 👍
I love all your videos! But whenever I've tried to use hot glue to make a mould, it dries totally solid and is completely unbendable so I couldn't get my resin out at all! What hot glue do you use?
It’s linked in my Amazon store front 😀😀💜 just a cheap brand, nothing special 😀💜👍
What would happen if you heat up the stamp first. Less bubbles??
That’s actually a good question 🤷♀️😀 maybe 😀💜
Quick question. Can you paint mica powder onto metal?
Yes but it won’t stick. You need to use metal leaf size glue first to get it to stick 😀💜👍
can you make inlays with paint stencils?
Only if you cover the back completely with something liquid proof 😀💜
I think if you used a darker color for the teddy bear it would show up better
You might be right 😀😀💜👍
Pour some alcohol around metal stamp and it may relase easily from the hot glue.
Thank you 😀👍
Usually when i use uv resin it comes out sticky. Got any advice for that? Thats why i honestly haven't used it in years.
Then you are in for a treat 😀😀 uv resin is much better these days. I had the same problem years ago and hated it. But the new formulas and better curing lamps, makes it easier and without sticky at the end.
Honestly it’s much better now 😀💜
