I love your puppies SO MUCH. I miss my daisy so much, she passed in January, she was a dachshund. Their sweet little faces, they must bring you so much joy, you are very blessed in so many ways!

[@amethyst1826]

Oooooooo the dogs xx

[@angelatownsend3522]

Julie, I wish I had a quarter Every time you say "I dont know" lol... Love you just the way you are 😊And every time it comes out beautiful.

[@odinsdottir1]

Make a heck of a drinking game! 🤣

[@melissaphillis7247]

Black will look fabulous! These are magnificent Julie....cute pups.

[@carlabass7413]

I think I like the smaller pieces better than the big.. So pretty!!!

[@maddieadams75]

Very pretty, looking forward to black background.. ♥️ cute puppies

[@wilhat]

They look very real love to see a black one .

[@judyeuller7602]

In 1973 I visited Sydney-egads that's so long ago-anyway, I bought an opal ring while I was there and your pendants are very reminiscent of my ring. I too, like the smaller bits.

[@chriswilliams4195]

Hey Judy Judy

[@tatorh65]

Opal is my birthstone, very lovely. You do such a wonderful job!. ❤

[@ccorbin83]

Opal is not my birth stone, but I love them anyway.

[@amethyst1826]

Topaz is mine, but I love opals and amethysts.

[@lullysmommyify]

I get so excited whenever a new video pops up of yours. ❤❤❤

[@mookzmom]

Opals are my favorite stones, and I have long wanted to try this. Thank you!

[@rosebud6805]

I am 63 and remember when i was a kid we had a white pocket poodle that we go as an adult his name was Hoss and we also had and puppy that was an apricot toy poodle we named Pixie and when she was old enough she had 5 babies 2 where chocolate and the others where pixed and i remember we named 1 Panda because it looked a lot like a panda so i love when you show your fury children because it reminds me of my child hood,also love your videos,thank you. :)

[@ibbylearmont7813]

Think it's beautiful. Love watching you work

[@anarangel5627]

Can’t wait to see the black opal! ❤️

[@gillianlowton4133]

So pretty, these are so lovely. I’ve got the shaved ice and I have put it in clear and transparent colours but never thought of doing this. So gorgeous

[@Miss.Libby.]

Very pretty and certainly opal-like. See if you can find an orange/red and bright green fleck Julie. That would definitely look like opal. Can’t wait for when you start selling all your treasures. 🌺🌴

[@Stephanie_Hancock]

Very pretty. I like the added shimmer of the interference powder. However, I like both of the flakes. The larger flakes give them a mosaic look. As always, beautiful pieces, Julie.

[@novallasuter8197]

These are really pretty, Julie. I think I will try some for gifts for grandaughters.

[@juliesmith8426]

Love the pink ones the best but both are beautiful xx

[@vezhopkins714]

eeeee! my birth stone ! :) I like the blue one but the sizeof the pink one can't wait for the darker ones:)

[@abbynormal4740]

Very lovely! I'd be quite curious to see some cabs done with a mix of the shaved ice and the larger "blue" flakes. It would be fun to experiment with adding a bit more white to the resin and also mix in some the interference powders. 🙂

[@mywifetheartist]

These are so stunning. ❤❤❤

[@kellygallo1075]

Try mix both flakes and marabu rainbow coloring...pretty look of an opal..they turned georgous

[@mikeandbeverleygodfrey1907]

I just love them they look great!

[@bethboyer5368]

Very pretty Julie..❤

[@myutoobvids]

I have made pendants like these for years. I actually really like to stir the flakes in with the resin. You have to be much more careful about bubbles but it gives you a depth you cannot get when just brushing it on top. Either that or if you want to avoid bubbles you could continue your method and just pour a couple layers to get the layering. The mylar flakes are far more colorful if you allow them to layer and you'll see the new color blends. I have done some with black backgrounds exactly the same way. I stir them in with deep blue tinted resin. Not opaque dark blue. Just see through enough that I also get color variations from the layering Plus the dark blue. It's an interesting technique.

[@renee1503]

Love your Pups 💕💕💕.

[@Fibers-Art-Food-Fundamentals]

Lovely, I am so tempted by now to venture into the resin playground, too. As for making smaller pieces, rather than trying to chop them up, try a very clean/ new coffee bean/ spice grinder and add a tablespoon or so and whirl them at high speed for a few seconds or less--check often to avoid powdering them.

[@Shari311]

They’re so pretty!

[@nathaliepeignieux4349]

C'est vraiment magnifique j'adore ça scintille 🤩👍👏👏👏❤❤❤❤😘💋💋💋💋

[@toughtimes6596]

When I get my molds, I fill them with water and know exactly how much I need for them. I also brush on a top layer to save on resin when they are filled to top. Gorgeous💞💞💞

[@avismccolland70]

They are very pretty. I do like the pink ones best although the others are pretty too. Thanks for showing us how. Have a great evening.

[@NighthawkMeow]

Tortillas is Tor-tee-as lol I live in Colorado and we eat quite a lot of Mexican food here. Your lasagna sounds good! We get Mexican pizza, too. 🍲 Foods of the world all mixed up!

[@anarangel5627]

The pinky opal is beautiful! ❤️

[@nancyboivin600]

I think i prefer the pink ones Julie!

[@SamiSchultz1993]

Absolutely beautiful and they do look quite a lot like opals! Definitely trying this when I have time!

[@ccorbin83]

Me too.

[@joallawestervelt6918]

They are really pretty. Reminds me of opals. Good job. 😊💕🤗♥

[@sandrakeaton634]

They are really beautiful

[@ideasboutique]

Very similar to opal, nice job for a first try.

[@debjurski5978]

I wish you would list the brand and name of the glitters you used. I love opals and would like to try this.

[@cherylcleveland3529]

I love the pink!

[@janetaylor8635]

both gorgeous !

[@SC4RArt]

Amazing artwork! Thank you for sharing!!! ❤💥❤

[@SRDESIGNS1222]

Opal is my birthstone 💗💗

[@SkitchBean_aka_Christine_E]

Beautiful results. I prefer the shape of the oval, but I like the chameleon powder best. ❤

[@laurastoneking6278]

Very Pretty. Love that you try new stuff.

[@kittenboodle]

I think the chameleon powder is going to make a huge difference when you do the black background. You should definitely do some with and some without. Would be a very interesting experiment. Greeting from the UK by the way. love your tutorial videos, I have learned so much. :)

[@linda4422L]

Super Project 😃👍

[@christinebartleson3838]

That is absolutely so beautiful in the bezels. At first I thought it needed more white in the main mix but I’m in love with it in the bezels. Thank you so much for sharing ❤️

[@ellabaldwin7391]

Awe...Ella..That's my name👍😊😊

[@kidatheart55]

My birthstone is opal. My very favorite coastal town has real moonstones on the beach. I have one small moonstone but would love a ring with one in it.

[@globalfusion96]

cracking job well done love em

[@naomibarger5221]

Beautiful Julie!! Thank you for sharing with us!! Great work!!

[@funo6581]

They turned out beautiful. I made them using the Shaved ice but, I just did clear. I put too much in and wasn’t happy with the results. So far in a few different projects.. I’ve added too much glitter and also too much crushed crystal. 😂 Oh well.. ya can’t learn if ya don’t try. The color shift that you used in your crushed satin molds might be really pretty with the black backed opals. I can’t wait to see them! Thanks for sharing!

[@amethyst1826]

Beautiful!! I prefer the pinky. But the blue is nice.

[@janvining6301]

They are gorgeous

[@nancylevinson3353]

Love the smaller flakes

[@susangallon9432]

Stunning

[@marykjewels5516]

Love your molds

[@lindab424]

They are really pretty Julie. I am going to give resin a go and those will be something I have a go at doing. I prefer the smaller pinky ones rather than the larger bluish ones but both are gorgeous.

[@darlavris]

Beautiful!!

[@TheOldladyB]

They. Turned out awesome.

[@jessieback4891]

I think for that extra oopf a black background would really pop, especially with the chameleon powder 😍 I love them Julie

[@SouthernArtist77]

I wonder what black resin on the back would do? I bet they’d be gorgeous too.

[@4getnit]

Love opals, they are very beautiful

[@catcain5119]

They're beautiful. They look a little like an opal, but I just like the way they look, whether they look like opals, or not. Nice tutorial!

[@jksmith818]

The smaller one's are my favorite. But the blue glitter is really pretty to 💙. I like your suggestion about making them smaller. Maybe in a blinder.

[@Jfletcherart3642]

Love them!

[@settimo123]

The black background will POP!

[@robinpinkham9398]

I'd try mixing both the small and larger pieces together😁

[@elizabeththomas8395]

I thought that too. But just a touch of each.

[@rebeccazephyrin8114]

I was thinking that too.

[@lindatrayler9539]

Very pretty

[@janetalvarez144]

I have a big fiery white opal you needed one more drop of white,in the blue I would make that the black opal, I love opals. Yes add the white background.

[@carolnichols2869]

Always beautiful!

[@JessicaO81]

I love opals and have had a go at making them as well. I’ve been looking forward to see how you do them. I think a little less glitter (the finer one) and maybe just a bit more white in with the glitter layer.

[@lesliespiers8407]

do you ever leave your resin sit for 5-10 minutes to thicken then pour??? Very pretty, but Id use a different chain, or ribbon..

[@disneygal200016]

You could also spray the backs lightly with hairspray. That will seal it.

[@erniedevries2356]

Love these. Would you be so kind to list what you used, the glitters and the pendeltray and where you bought it, please?

[@barbieturner3251]

Beauty! You'll have to give this another go when you get the Let's Resin Opal chunky glitter I sent you... Hopefully arrives soon 😊

[@christineingram55]

They are beautiful 🥰

[@karencusick2540]

Beautiful

[@kj7238]

beautiful!

[@lisae3663]

They’re all very pretty. If opal look is what you’re looking for I’d stick with the pink.

[@wrmmilk]

You are the greatest teacher out there What do you do with all the items? I hope you sell them

[@debchristian5223]

So pretty!💞

[@cherachapin3826]

Can you mix the chameleon powder with clear resin? Would it still act like its supposed to? What if you put like a tiny bit of clear in the base (to keep some of the little glitters off the base) then poured a tiny bit of the resin with the sparkles, a tiny bit of resin with the chameleon powder and topped it with white? Would that be too many layers? Would you even still need the white, I wonder? 🤔 They are lovely. I was thinking that blue sparkle will look especially lovely when you go to pour with the black

[@sandyeubanks4972]

I like them all

[@graciekitty6213]

awesome....double pour half size cabachons/earrings pink first then a light layer of blue and try the black background for sure..check the fire and ice opal 120 grand..maybe a royal navy background and maybe pieces of coloured resin in them to 3d them more.....oh ammonites like copper paper and dragon scales would be nice also for another experiment

[@arlisshuston4203]

i agree that there is too much,maybe more of the white pigment and cut the glitter more,but they are very pretty,i love opals

[@lornacy]

The "chameleon" doesn't show up at all on my screen. I can imagine that it gives some depth in person. These are fun and pretty! I love opals :)

[@alyssahunley8074]

What if you put the interference in the white without the glitter? Wonder how that would look?

[@sallypoultney4331]

So beautiful. I love the smaller pieces better and maybe a slight less. I looked online for the necklaces you were using but could not find the ones like you use with the ball chain. Can you put a link in the description or in reply comment. You do amazing work.

[@amyr2710]

If I remember correctly. the flakes are called Mylar. Like the balloon material. These are really pretty!

[@paulinebradford4823]

The pink ones look like opals, but the larger pieces remind me more of glass shards. Both types are lovely, but I have to admit to preferring the smaller , opaline pieces.

[@escapingreality1997]

Wondering if UV resin would be good in a situation like this, where you can brush it on and cure it instantly

[@cindyskavland6185]

Awesome!

[@pamcolechadwell1302]

TurtleSoupBeads made opal beads a while back maybe you can check her video out on opals.

[@WendyS996]

Beautiful...for the large pieces..you can put them in a glass and stick some scissors inside and cut them with your scissors

[@punkyfeathers1639]

I’ve learned so much from you! Thanks so much. I’m making a tray for my son. What method do you think would work for something shallow? I want it to be interesting.

[@jaleinegreen7411]

Your opals are so beautiful 💓I love your adorable fur babies 🐶🐶🐶 what breed are they?

[@peggyfowler7286]

Is the material you're using safe to breathe? Does it have a strong odor?
