#100

Hi all,
All product links are further down 😊 ⬇️.
***The UV Kit I used has slightly changed and does not include the smaller molds but does include a 250g UV resin (not 100g), I have included separate links for the smaller molds I used***
This is a video showing how you can make your own bezels/frames instead of using metal ones, I used UV resin for mine but you can use 2 part as mentioned. UV resin is just so much quicker to use.
You can now be a member of my channel which will give you access to comment badges and also wallpaper of my macro photography. You may need to save these to your device via a PC or screenshot and adjust the images.

Just watched a McDonald's foil video before your. When you said what you were doing, I thought about using the foil. Then you used foil. Guess we are thinking the same. I wished the foil would have looked better, it maybe would have been a cheaper alternative to the silver clay. Loved the video, headed down stairs to try this out right now. Thank you again.

[@merryharrison4841]

That would be beautiful with the white glitter bezel.

[@aras1742]

No matter if you keep going wrong, at the end you did right and you showing to us that the things need practice, good job don't worry 👍👍👍

You are so welcome 😊 thank you 😊

[@sonflowergems]

This is a very cute idea. I wouldn’t have thought of it. In case you are wondering, sparkalaophobia is the fear of glitter. Hope you’re doing better with that now. You know the best way to conquer it right? Exposure to it little by little. I enjoy your videos!

[@Dawns_Creative_Carousel]

That’s funny as soon as you used yellow I said with that gold though? You caught it! It’s still cute! Resin pieces are unique and every screw up is someone’s dream piece just remember that!

What a cool way to use the petri cabochons❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@daniel..cooper]

Thanks Kim 😊

[@fairyspunfibers9098]

You can definitely put foiling and micas right into a mold. Foil becomes a really cool, wrinkled lining, and micas look really cool, too. While glitters don't upset me, I *really* don't like working with them AT all. Messy! The only glitters I like are those gorgeous Marabu sparkling inks, like the unicorn ink. No mess, great sparkle. 😁 Well, look at that: the UV resin and foil didn't work! Good to know! I really appreciate this resin bezel idea, Daniel! Thank you for playing around with this for us!

[@RHG412]

Great idea Daniel definitely will be trying this technique love the pink next with the cabochon 🤗🤗🤗🤗

[@jo-jotabzjewelleryandresins]

I'm loving the mirror idea! I never thought of that 🤦‍♀️ but it's all learning

[@daniel..cooper]

I had a few viewers recommend it, it's a great tip 😊😊

[@SunshineSomeday]

I love this idea... endless possibilities. As you made the pink with the cabachon, I thought how cool to do a cabachon on BOTH sides.

[@daniel..cooper]

Thanks 😊 That's a great idea! You could use e6000 glue to bond the 2 pieces then uv them into the bezel 😊😊

[@SunshineSomeday]

I wasn't sure how, but I figured you would. I'm just getting started with resin. You are teaching me so much.

[@gothiccharms]

OMG! So I'm sitting here at my desk working on getting uv resin on to metal bands I'd put strips of vinyl into and watching this video. The next item on my desk to do was card up some bezels I'd made. Rings get cast aside and I grabbed a round bezel I'd made with gold mica. Just a tiny bit - makes it look like suspended gold. Using your technique in this video, this is what I did - 1 layer of uv resin and added some nail art foil in purple and cured. Thanks for that mirror trick! Worked a treat! Then I added two temporary tattoo butterflies and and another thin layer of uv. Next a layer of glitter in the resin and TADA! I just turned a $5 pendant that was mostly boring into an awesome $10 pendant! THANKS!!!

[@daniel..cooper]

Yay, well done 😊😊😊😊

[@Oonagh72]

Those are so cute!! You can try brushing the gel in the bottom and up the sides of the frame. Let it sit a minute for it to level then cure it. It will make a smooth bottom quickly and seal it up. You can take an old nail polish bottle and clean it out. Put black electrical tape around it and pour some of your UV resin in it to make the brushing easier.

[@daniel..cooper]

[@naudiaangelica6925]

Call me crazy.. Could you pour in the bezels, then turn over the mold and make the insides? It will have that small gap from the silicone, but that could be a really cool effect, too! Also, in my experience, with those super thin jewelry molds, P.U. resin is tougher than epoxy or U.V. resin (most of them). Now you're filling it in with more resin, so it might not matter as much, but just throwing some info out there, for you to use as you wish. For example, Steve Mcdonald did a great video on cold casting with P.U. resin. Seems like a great technique for bezels.

[@daniel..cooper]

Good thinking! The only problem would be the gaps as the thickness of the silicone but you could always fill that! Love your thinking, I will try 😊😊

[@teedee478]

I've done this. I xant post a pic here but I used the round one and then turned it over and did the inner circle. I even put a butterfly tattoo in the center. It fit snugly and I used uv to set it. It did not sit flat..that is to say the inner circle was thicker. I could have sanded it flat but I liked it as it was so yes. It's just a tight fit so don't over fill.

[@dianeg63]

Laying the gold flake first to bond is a good idea but it does need sealing as it rubs off with use

[@daniel..cooper]

Had to try 😂, may work better with 2 part I think then sealing as you mentioned, probably just easier to add to the resin.

Daniel… don't use a mirror with the uv/led lamp … that light reflect out and can damage your eyes… get yourself a piece of clear acrylic like the pieces that come in those polymer clay kits with the rolling pins…you can sit that directly on the lamp flipped upside down and the your item to cure on the acrylic … just don’t put your mold directly on the lamp… it can melt …also, when using the uv lamp upside down, place something over it to keep the UVlight from your eyes… I use a piece of aluminum foil that I have fashioned into a "lid" … the foil will also reflect the light back down on the piece you are curing… :)

I watched this to see how you used the resin tape. In every video I watch, after the tape is cut, it is very flat, which makes it easy to set the bezel on. When I cut my "Let's Resin" tape, its curled so when I set my bezel on it, it's not flat. Any suggetions?

[@daniel..cooper]

Cut it shorter maybe 😊

Where can I purchase the uv lamp you use? What are the time settings? Thank you.

[@daniel..cooper]

Mine came in the Let's Resin kit, it has 1min or 2min settings 😊

[@PurpleStar-bq2up]

To be honest I have never found using mica powder very successful in uv resin. I find it often appears to have set but only on the part exposed to the uv light. The uv light just does not seem to be able to penetrate all the way through the mica if you squeeze it or stab it with a pin the unset resin oozes out so I avoid using it in this way.

[@daniel..cooper]

It took some getting used to but if done with the correct ratios, it works wonders 😊
