Had left a comment in another glass project of yours I absolutely fell in love with (in it I also mentioned I'm making a table top with Swatch watches and then resin). I'm definitely working on smaller projects now to practice and am working up to the table. Meanwhile I'm having lots of fun with resin and molds - this butterfly may very well be my first step to get closer to the table top. I have a family member who adores butterflies and moths and this project, though small, will launch my next steps all the while getting me closer to the table pour. I'm so excited because it's all going so well. Wish I could show you and learn faster from your great videos. I watch them all and love each one. You are so super clever and explain everything well. So glad I found you.
I'm still agonizing over the resin pour. Finished the design with the watches, and added many small jewelry turtles. The basic table is white. I also picked up some soft colored broken glass but have not added it yet. I love this project and know I'm onto something unique and one of a kind. My fear is ruining it by applying resin. The more I looked into resin, the more I became afraid of ruining the table. I've watched your videos for months now; even joined your FB group. You inspire me and I'm struck by your ease with resin. But I'm still stuck. Love the fact that you remembered and asked about this project.
@@crazyglasslady Lovely to hear back from you, thanks so much. I do stained glass both with solder and also grout. Did a floor and an entire kitchen in glass and tile. So I'm very comfortable with grout. Unfortunately, the table has some depth to it and it would probably be considered a deep pour. I'd have to do it in stages. That means I'd need specific resin and the size of the table top together with the depth is causing my worries. I'd be so bummed if I had tons of bubbles or if it became icky yellow. Yes, I've been learning all about resin. Worse yet, if I did not have the correct temperature in the house it might also not harden properly. Then I thought of finding someone to do the pour that is in the business. Haven't looked hard enough to find a place. Anyway, you've put my mind on this project again and I really really do want to complete this thing. Thanks a lot!
Beautiful Love ❤️ it! Continue to do your beautiful work. I’m very proud of you. Love it.! I’m gonna send this video to my daughter Marianna and my Grandson jomar she loves butterflies.God bless you. Love ❤️. Luz
I do the resin in a back room but I use art resin which has no VOC you don't need to wear a respirator even though I do. I used to use other resins before I realized how dangerous some can be if not done using a respirator or outdoors. They have there own UA-cam channel called Art resin (of course) Lol the have a video on it about safety and resins and how you can tell how safe various resin are
When you put the rain stone chains around it it may be possible to keep the resin within the boundaries of the rhinestone chain the thinner the resin is the more it will run. If you let it sit for about 20 minutes or more depending on your work time with the resin you may be able to keep it from spreading onto the glass but once it gets onto the glass, you will be able to see where it starts and stops so you might want to just put a thin layer on all of the Glass.
I did 3 butterflies in a row the one on canvas is with mod Podge ua-cam.com/video/EwCxjIANVww/v-deo.html. but you could do that one with Mod Podge. Have you seen any of my Mod Podge on glass Videos? ua-cam.com/video/q5fTzXRcIg8/v-deo.html
So the rhinestone chain is held down with glue Elmer's glue . In this one I used regular elmers glue but now I use the clear elmers glue because it dries perfectly clear and will not show under resin. Then the glass was held down with resin. Watch the video I explain everything step by steo.
In this video I use the kitchen torch but in earlier videos I do use a heat gun and in some more recent videos I use an embosser which is smaller and is also a heat gun that puts out less air and you can control the area the heat goes to more easily then the big heat guns. I stopped using the big heat gun because it's cumbersome and it blows the glass around . I actually prefer the kitchen torch which I used in this video.
Love how quick and to the point and informative you are.
Thank you, I try.
love how the butterfly came out.🙋♀
Thank you

I am so happy that I am able to help. You can send photos to my email at lberman6079@gmail.com I would love to see what you are making!
Did you ever make your watch table?

Have you ever watched how people do mosaics with the grout if you’re afraid of the resin that might be the way to go

Do you do the resin work in your garage?
I worry about the odor indoors but my garage isn’t heated
I do the resin in a back room but I use art resin which has no VOC you don't need to wear a respirator even though I do. I used to use other resins before I realized how dangerous some can be if not done using a respirator or outdoors.

Beautiful 💙💙💙
Thank you! 😊
Love it thank you
Thank you!
Please use clear Elmer's glue it will dry clear!!!!
Can someone tell me if you have to cover the whole window with resin or can you just drizzle over glass flowers
When you put the rain stone chains around it it may be possible to keep the resin within the boundaries of the rhinestone chain the thinner the resin is the more it will run. If you let it sit for about 20 minutes or more depending on your work time with the resin you may be able to keep it from spreading onto the glass but once it gets onto the glass, you will be able to see where it starts and stops so you might want to just put a thin layer on all of the Glass.
Curious if you've tried this with Mod Podge yet? Thanks!

How did you get the glass to stick
So the rhinestone chain is held down with glue Elmer's glue . In this one I used regular elmers glue but now I use the clear elmers glue because it dries perfectly clear and will not show under resin. Then the glass was held down with resin. Watch the video I explain everything step by steo.
Could you show using the heat gun to remove bubbles??
In this video I use the kitchen torch but in earlier videos I do use a heat gun and in some more recent videos I use an embosser which is smaller and is also a heat gun that puts out less air and you can control the area the heat goes to more easily then the big heat guns. I stopped using the big heat gun because it's cumbersome and it blows the glass around . I actually prefer the kitchen torch which I used in this video.
@@crazyglasslady So helpful- can’t wait to try doing some projects- I just retired from Nursing- so can do new things now!
@@carlas6168 Wonderful. I am also a retired nurse. Did you work during covid? I can't imagine it!
@@crazyglasslady yes- was so difficult and frightening- but a new chapter now🌹
@@carlas6168 Wow give you a lot of credit! Yes a new chapter. Enjoy!
Stan thinks you must be talking to him 😻
LOL I was trying to figure out who Stan was. Thats Sam the cat.
@@crazyglasslady 🤩😂🤣thought u said Stan. I thought that was a very good name for a cat 😹
Can you show the resin box?
I am not sure what you are asking there was not a resin box in this video?
How did you attach the antenna
So after I poured the resin I set it in the resin and used a toothpick to straighten them. I show you toward the end of the video.
Sam !
