6 pkts Knox Gelatin? In my place there is no Knox, but there is some other. How much gr is 6pkts?

do it. show it.

Even on temu plates of any size are about 50 dollars!!!

Hi my plate worked well but it turns back to liquid. What am I doing wrong?

Thank you for the quick summary! I’ve wanted to make gel plates but every tutorial seems to to complicate the process where as you have simplified it for my neurodiverse brain and now I can actually do it. Thanks again!!

So I found if you want to make a gel plate A4 size it's total cost is about fourteen pounds +. A bought gel plate same size is about twenty six pounds however the bought gel plate can produce better results. The interesting thing is the homemade plate isn't permanent and will start to breakdown after a month or so, the nice thing is you can chop it up and put it back in a pan to melt and make a new plate. The homemade Gel plate will darken with use.

Do you have more videos about that? What is the measure and thickness of this plate?

has anyone tried this with fish gelatine? X

Thanks for the recipe. Could I have the amounts in grams and mIligrams please ?

Thanks for the quick and simple instructions!

Can you helpe find a sloth silkscreen????

that isnt silk screening. Thats just using a stencil.

💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Can I do this on pottery?

Hi. You mention printing on ceramics with this technique. Can I have the link to that Video?? Many thanks in advance. Neshan Balian

👍👍🌹

A LOT less expensive. I made mine with alcohol.

this is a bit cheaper than what they sell for glass artist

Great video! I knew someone would figure this out. Thank you for "cutting to the chase" and not falling in love with your voice. It is MUCH appreciated!!!

Instead of turning the stenciled image face down to fire, can I put a clear glass on top of the stenciled side and just fire it that way ? Many thanks for the great tutorial 💜

I made a bunch of these 6 years ago for a class and they're still holding up great! I recently re-melted/re-molded them, and they look new again! There is no mildew or funky odors. I'm so thrilled these homemade Gellie plates can last for years instead of a couple of weeks or months. Definitely worth the time and $$$ savings to make them yourself!

Gelatin is about 7g a package (FYI for all those asking)

Can you used vege gelatine?

First off, a Permanent Gel Plate never needs to be refrigerated. As Lindsay says, the addition of Glycerin to the mix plasticizes the gel plate. Second, Lindsay suggests 7 packs of gelatin, not 6. I've been using my Hectograph, via her recipe, for around 4 years, & have never put it into the fridge, & I have never had a speck of mold on it. If it gets scratched or becomes embedded with glitter, plant matter, fibers, etc, it's a simple matter of cutting the plate up & melting it by heating it in a microwave safe bowl for a minute or three. Watch it carefully as it is a big mess to clean up if you let it boil over. Guess how I know this. After it's melted, line a small strainer with several layers of damp cheesecloth, to strain the bits out. Then check to see if there are any bubbles on the top. If so, run a few strips of newspaper across it to remove the bubbles. Leave the gel plate out on the counter, or another level surface, for 6 to 8 hours for it to set up. No refrigeration required, & in fact, it's not good to store it in the refrigerator as it can collect moisture on the surface which can then harm the gel plate. If, after a year of play & remelting, you may experience some shrinkage. No problem. Put a few Tablespoons of water in the mix when you melt it again. After several years of use & remaking, I've added a half recipe to my 9" x 13" gel plate that I originally made with a double recipe. The other half of the mix gave me enough to make a smaller gel plate that I made by using a small Corning Ware round dish. Since the very beginning, I've made different sized gel plates & use them for different sized papers. Definitely cheaper than the commercial plates! I LOVE all of my gel plates & will forever be grateful to Lindsay for sharing her recipe with us!

Hi there, just watched ur video on making a gelli plate, I'm In the uk and we dont have the knox gelatin, so I've ordered some its 100gms of glycerin and i want to make a A4 plate, could you tell me the measurements I would need to make a plate useing the 100gm of gelatin I have and how much glycerin and water I would need, thank you and hope you dont mind me asking xx

Can you add Gum Tex to Glassline paints? Also, where do you get your silk screen stencils?

Do you need to cap the back or the front or can you just fuse it with no cap at all if you need it to be thin?

This is great and I'd say more is saved than just a few $$! This looks like all that I need in the way of a quick tut. Seems to have done a great job for you. Don't think I'd need to watch something longer. Thanks so much!

"A little less expensive"? --- A LOT LESS EXPENSIVE - have you seen the ripoff prices they charge? I saw one for $60 the other day!

Knox Gelatine Is Made from Factory Farm Animals. Gelatin is made from the bones, skins, and connective tissues of animals.

How much glycerin are you using for 6 gelatin.

Great video! I've just ordered some of the paint. I already have a lot of CMC powder - could I use that instead of the Gum Tex please?

Can you uses any colored paint at a hardware store meant for glass to get the same results or do you need special glass paint? With glass powder or recycled glass you don't have to worry about all this but when it comes to paint it opens up one additional issue type of paint that works question?

so you can color glass and heat it so it embeds in the object.. i thought you had to uses a glass powder painted on for glaze. I wasn't sure that paint colors/dyes retained there colors and location when you fired the glass. Great video still trying to figure out the paint transfer ramifications can it do the same as glass powder glazes. Can you get the same breath of color ranges???

I think your recipe is a little off. You have to mix it real good on the glycerin 1st using a mixing bowl and not in the mold itself because the mold is too shallow for mixing. Not trying to be rude. I don't want for someone ruin it. Thank you for your video.

Whether you're cooking or crafting and you have to mix a powder and a liquid, add the powder to the liquid in small amounts and stir after each addition. It really really helps to avoid lumps. So, rather than pouring the glycerin over the gelatin, I'd probably pour the glycerin in first then sprinkle with a packet of the gelatin, stir it up then another and stir. In a wide shallow pan like this it might not make any difference at all, but if you're mixing in a jar or even a bowl it really helps. How I remember is "it snows on the lake, it doesn't lake on the snow".

Can this be done with any color? Thanks!

Hi, I know this is an old video but I would like to know what the quantity of gelatine is for each sachet as I can’t get sachets in Australia. Thanks so much. Great video!

Total different recipe and instructions from the Frugal Crafter

How many grams is in each packet? I live in England which doesn't stock that particular brand. Would be very grateful for any help!

congratulations for ur video. what kind of "gum" is that? and what is it made of? do you know?

In India v get gelatine in grams,not sold in packets so was confused how to go about it.Cud u plz help me in the ingredients required. i am making 10"×8" plate so how much grams of gelatine to b used with the proportion of glycerine, water and alcohol (in ml). hope to hear from u soon.m so excited.. Thanx Suravi Kumar

Nice short and to the point vid. My question is... How do you store it? Do you keep it in the fridge or out? I know you put it back in the mold you made it in and cover it with wrap but I'm unclear on where. Thank you!

Thanks. I have just seen a you tube on an art journal page and she had used geli printed tissue paper. I decided then to look up and yours was the first and quickest one to watch. Now to find out how to use them.

A show what to do with it once make it

what is the firing schedule

Can you use Agar Agar instead of gelatin?

I love the video! Do you have to fire face down? Can you just clear cap it then fuse?

Awesome! Gelli Plates are quite expensive in Sweden so this is awesome!

where did you get the plastic "tray" you mentioned. I googled "stepping stone tray" & didn't find anything like it.
