"Not an artist unless you create a mess" never thought of myself as an artist, but I seem to meet your definition. Boy am I good as messes. Love the looks you got.

[@daniel..cooper]

😂😂😂 Of course you are an artist Bob! 😊😊😊

[@dawnr714]

Haha! Me too! My resin room is quite messy!! 😃

[@judithvanrooyen8410]

That's the wonderful thing of art it does not have to look exactly alike the earrings cane out stunning

[@michaelpinreno]

As a person who wears lots of turquoise from the Southwest, while not spot on Daniel, it looks somewhat like "stabilized" turquoise, which only means that they have crushed it up and reconstituted the actual stone. I think that it is a fair "faux" turquoise and kudos to you my friend for having the fun of experimenting and coming off well. Great trial!!!

[@daniel..cooper]

Wow, thank you so much 🥰

[@mylaschorsch7516]

The nice thing about tourqois is it comes in a variety of colors. Love the one too!

[@daniel..cooper]

Thanks Myla 😊 Yes, I looked it up, can look very different in many ways 😀

TEACH: Thanks for the twisting trick on the bottom of the earring attachment. I won’t discuss how many times I took the hook out to turn it the right way. Just know this I truly appreciate this channel and am glad I am a member. Sharan Nixon (Baltimore)

It would be neat to see the frost effect that was dyed black on top of the blue, too. They turned out super pretty and very striking.

@@daniel..cooper I would love to see that too, great idea Janice

[@gabrielleschmidt1435]

🎉Love 💝 this one! Next time try silver instead of gold. Most of my 'real' turquoise has a silver matrix in it. I really like this technique. 😊

[@terribailey228]

been trying to get that sort of look for a very long time! And your little tips are truly helpful!! Just giving that little hook at the end of the earring part a twist? Yup. I actually never thought of that!! Kind of laughed at myself for struggling with making sure jump rings are on right etc. Thank you Daniel!!

[@daniel..cooper]

Yay, very welcome Terri 😊😊

If you did one in a cream colour, but without the gold, it would look like a moon!

@@daniel..cooper so many I’ve lost count to be totally honest. Here in Connecticut we have garnet mines. Around the entrance you can pick up some nice rough ones. Occasionally, I drive to NY and hit the diamond mine there. Especially when it’s nasty humid hot. Inside the kind need a jacket. Lol

[@G.Lollie]

Thank you Daniel. I would like to say if you are using acetone make sure you clean any of it up right away because acetone eats through everything except metal even the safer polish removers with acetone will cause damage it just may take longer than the industrial strength.. I know because i worked with the product as a license nail tech a lot. It will eat through wood, paper, rubber, and silicone. I am not sure if it will continue to eat through the resin or if the curing it will stop the process. Acetone is what is used to take off acrylic nails that is how strong it is.

[@daniel..cooper]

Thanks for that, I wasn't aware 😅

I kept my small empty uv resin bottles so I could fill them up with that giant 1000g bottle… easier to handle that way… I use the big bottle when I need to pour large amounts of it into the little,cups… just a suggestion 😊

[@daniel..cooper]

I did think this but the company said the viscocity between my large and small was slightly different so I didn't want to risk it 😊

[@ZippedUpKitz]

@@daniel..cooper yeah, that’s why you use an empty bottle! I used up my small bottle and the. When it was empty, I cleaned it out… I would never mix uv resins from one bottle to another one… not even the same brand! Right now, I have 2 100g bottles of let's resin uv resin and a bottle of their High Viscosity UV resin… one of the 100g bottles has the SAME viscosity as their high viscosity and the other 100g bottle is thinner…l those two 100g bottles obviously came from different batches … All that being said, you can clean out one of the smaller bottles and transfers some of the resin out of he large bottle! Just don’t ever mix em lol….

I heard a great tip for curing UV resin today, if you're using a translucent mould, pop it on a mirror then cure, the reflection helps cure the bottom! Wiked tip I thought!

I have tried this but need to be very careful as the light can damage your eyes, it does work great though 😊😊

[@ginrincreates]

Dan, could you give me tips on how to not have tacky UV resin after it's cured? Even after repeated curing, my pieces always have a very slightly tacky surface.

[@daniel..cooper]

Sure, it's more than likely Cure Inhibition, the best thing to try is straight after curing, pop into a small dish of water and cure under the uv light for a couple of minutes.

[@ginrincreates]
