These turned out lovely, love these green shades together, they're stunning 🤩

[@miniscenesgb]

Thanks so much 😊

[@patriciaharkin1571]

Fantastic results Tracy, I love the colours. Might I be so bold as to suggest 1: make a border around the crystals in the center with clear UV resin to prevent seepage, 2: when you pour your colours, keep a pencil width empty between them - the resin levels out and will then fill the voids without so much mixing of the colours. If you find that the resin is too thick and not moving enough to fill the gaps, just use a little heat on them and you can add a top coat when it's cured to give it more substance.

[@miniscenesgb]

Great tips thanks Patricia :)

Pausing after you painted both sides of the first one. I got a 10 pack of paint pyramids on temu - can't remember how much but not a lot of money - 2 quid maybe? They're for painting cabinet doors so you can paint one side, flip it over and paint the other. They're currently propping up 3 shelves that have the top coat drying on them in the kitchen. Handy wee things (and they are wee). You should check them out and then you can paint both sides all you want.

And also, these pieces are gorgeous 😍...just a thought...i often also watch the vids by resin crystal artists...they all add stuff on top after the initial base layers etc...if you're not 100percent happy with what you have already created, maybe add more, draw more, glue more etc ...but they are very pretty as is!

[@micah06v8]

I think the stones you're discussing at 7:40 might actually be variscite rather than adventurine. That would also explain why there's no sparkle.

[@miniscenesgb]

I found the reciept from when I bought them it is aventurine, just little sparkle as they are tumbled :)

I feel bad that I haven’t been watching for a while. I’m catching up now and see I’ve been missing quite a lot. Congratulations on hitting 10K, well now I think you have around 13K; but anyway congratulations! You certainly deserve the following that you have. I’m hitting my seasonal depression early this year due to my dad passing on August 9th, and then getting hit by COVID within a few days of his passing. I’m finally getting over COVID, but it’s going to take a lot longer to get through grieving my dad. I haven’t even kept up on posting videos to my own channel, and should probably post an apology video when I can get the energy up. Good on you for being a little sneaky with your giveaways. I’ve heard there are people out there who will sign up to any channel just to join the giveaways and then unsubscribe once the giveaways are done. I think that’s a bit sad truthfully. Anyway here I am nattering on about nothing. Again, congratulations on your subscriber count, you absolutely deserve every follower you get.

[@jaykb6587]

Maybe it's just me, but I had trouble understanding you. Possibly speak just a little bit slower? I had to have my volume as high as possible. Since I am totally not a green person, this didn't work for me. Also, the "tumble stones" you used first and called them crystals... Having done lapidary work, there is a large difference between the two. Although crystals can be tumbled, what you were working with weren't technically crystals. But then, I do nitpick my work too much. 😊

[@miniscenesgb]

Over 500 watch hours in the first 23 hours on this video representing over 2,100 views. No one else has had trouble hearing me so I won't be changing it. The crystals are tumbled aventurine crystals - I found the receipt from The Lodestone crystal shop in Boughton On The Water. A crystal is a crystal, shape is irrelevant. Aventurine is a form of quartzite

[@c.a.chambers68]

Wow I’ve never thought much about geodes but both of these make me think I’ll give them a go (amongst all the other ideas I keep saying I’ll get too) not enough hrs in my evenings 😂 I really liked the Kermit at the end too 💚🩶💚
