[@lorriv9763]

This is a great video for people like me, just starting out. So informative. Thank you Tracey 👏💜

[@miniscenesgb]

Glad it was helpful!

[@chyanne101ify]

I would love to see how to trim, and debur. How to sand and polish or finish a piece

[@miniscenesgb]

Ok I'll make a video on that in the new year 😄

[@teresagoodman-walters7720]

Little-Windows Resin makes a safe, non-toxic resins and have wonderful molds and dychrofilms.

[@miniscenesgb]

O only use Apex. No resin is 100% safe once the parts are combined and the chemical reactions start. Many are safe before that reaction thjough

[@sudhagupta4458]

Loved all the coasters,all of them are gorgeous 😍😍,a very nice tutorial for beginners 😍💜💜

[@miniscenesgb]

Glad you liked it!!

[@RuthanneRaiche-w4h]

I apologize. I did not wait for the end of the video before I asked my question and then you demonstrated sanding. Thank you.

[@miniscenesgb]

You're welcome :)

[@Howrya4]

Thank you for not being perfect, it makes me feel better about myself! I’m new at this and have resin all over my room. It’s on the wood floor, my dresser, bathroom sink and sliding glass door handle and bedroom door handle. My room is sticky! I just found out and ordered some resin cleaner! I also liked seeing how you fixed your mistakes! Thank you! I’ll be watching your channel most of the time!

[@miniscenesgb]

Glad to know I'm not alone 😅 thanks so much for watching

[@NatalieSilen-Eastin]

I actually liked the gold spill! It looked cool.

[@miniscenesgb]

It did but it went everywhere and probably would have stopped the resin from curing as there was so much of it so sadly it had to go :(

[@resinartists]

Lovely set of coasters,Ms Tracey😍💜.Thank you so much for sharing step by step tutorial 💜💜💜

[@miniscenesgb]

You are so welcome

[@frogystal]

Omg. I actually loved how that happy accident looked! It was mixing with the top coat of resin and spreading really nicely!

[@miniscenesgb]

It was but it wouldn't have cured unfortunately so it had to go :(

[@Allaboardresincreations]

Excellent tutorial as always Tracey and they all came out beautiful. Love that colour 👌

[@miniscenesgb]

Thanks so much 😊

[@TeppyMeg]

I audibly gasped when I saw the pen cap explosion!! 😂

[@miniscenesgb]

Nightmare. I've never had that happen before. I killed the pen :(

[@AldreKatCrafts]

I absolutely love the way the one with the flowers came out! All of them came out so pretty. ❤🤗 😮 Oh no, sympathies about the gold pen!

[@miniscenesgb]

IKR, I killed the pen :(

[@adalavin8648]

Learned not to spray a top coat the hard way. 😳 😂 When the ink exploded out of the cap I was going.. Oh ah.. Tracy.. and fighting the urge to tap you on the hand. 😂 I love all of the designs you made but I really liked the back of the coaster with the silver flake more than the front. The foiling that you added was a great idea for that coaster. I need to get some of that. 😍 This is a wonderful video Tracey. It's a great reminder of things we may not have used for a while. 💗

[@miniscenesgb]

Thanks Ada, yeh I'm quite enjoying going through my beginners stuff with the newer materials and remembering all the basics. Healthy I think

[@normlchic]

This entire project came out beautiful 🤩

[@miniscenesgb]

Thanks :)

[@miniscenesgb]

I'm so glad!

[@GertCreates]

they are stunning Tracey ty for sharing your ideas and helping newbies

[@miniscenesgb]

Glad you like them Gert

[@roygarcia4176]

Really good informative video… Even if you’ve been doing this for a while, it never hurts to go back to basics… Thank-you for mentioning PPE, a just watched a video where there was no PPE, I mentioned it in the comments, and the KZbinr was very receptive, but apparently I triggered someone, and got told, to mind my own business and then called me nosey… lol I wish people took it more seriously… I got lazy and top coated two Christmas ornaments with UV, without PPE, now I’m paying for it with swollen eyes… (I did at least use gloves) Lesson learned… I was definitely screaming at you when the pen exploded…lol

[@miniscenesgb]

I've been victim of the swollen eyes things too, never again. Yeh I killed that pen :(

[@sarahfortune1170]

I've always had a problem with my coaster sticking to my glass or cup. Hot or cold, doesn't matter which. Plzzzz tell me what I'm doing wrong. Is there a length of time to wait bf using them? Even my older ones still do the same. You do beautiful work. Enjoy watching and learning from you.

[@miniscenesgb]

@@sarahfortune1170 a sounds like it’s probably not the right sort of resin for coasters. You need one with high heat tolerance, and a good quality one. I use mostly Apex, and if I know it’s going to be used for hot drinks, I’ll either make or top coat with Apex One Coat which is ideal. I must do a video on that sometime as it’s a very good question

[@diangallo]

You did a beautiful creation and I really love that color…it’s ‘spa like’…thank you!!!

[@miniscenesgb]

Thank you so much!

[@jenniferr8195]

Thanks for sharing this! Good for beginners and more experienced alike! Love the colors to bring it together, but each one being different, too!

[@miniscenesgb]

You are so welcome!

[@CreateBloomCrafts]

Oh dear, can we call it a happy accident heheheeeee? A brilliant vid as always - such a winning combo :)

[@miniscenesgb]

lol, prob not I don;t think it would have cured with that much exploded pen juice on it :) Love your colours. another video out soon

[@LouSolCreations]

Thank you, Tracy for the great video. I guess this won’t be the best ad to buy those pens… Jeez Louise that was like the contents of the pen that came out wow anyway great work Tracy as usual thank you.❤❤

[@miniscenesgb]

Those pens are the best I have ever had. I broke it sadly, it wasn't down to t he pen. Glad you like this. I have another set of those pens on order as I use them a lot

[@villa_Super_fan]

I thought I heard a midlands twang nice to hear a local accent 😊❤

[@miniscenesgb]

North Worcestershire so yes, rather Midlands :)

[@SelenesCreationsByTheSea]

Oh wow what a gorgeous colour combination for these coasters. i think the flower one is my ultimate fav out of the 4 but i do LOVE all 4 of them. I did say *OH NO* and put my hand over my mouth, thats for sure. With me being a ultimate beginner this is awesome !!! thankyou for taking yoru time out to show us how all this is done and ideas etc

[@miniscenesgb]

You are so welcome!

[@NatalieSilen-Eastin]

[@miniscenesgb]

You are so welcome!

[@lesleyhenshaw2878]

Your coasters are all very pretty, love the dried flowers coaster, and the blue and holographic glitter are awesome. The water drops are fantastic, and the silver and blue is pretty. Your nails, though Tracey are absolutely stunning. Thank you for the video, have a super Sunday x❤

[@miniscenesgb]

Thank you so much Lesley!

Hi Tracey great set, love the colours 😍 thanks for sharing ❤❤❤ xxx

[@miniscenesgb]

Thanks Michelle

[@themoodyonejb]

lol I do that mold or one similar, along with about 62 other molds. I go overboard when I find a craft hobby I want to try. I look forward to trying some of these projects in your videos. New subby here, I’m glad I found your page.

[@miniscenesgb]

That is awesome! I'm glad I'm not the only one who goes crazy. Thanks for subbing

[@Coyo-Tea]

I groaned when all the gold poured out of the cap it was so unexpected. 😱😱

[@miniscenesgb]

I know. I totally killed that pen :(

[@snoopygirl40]

Oh Tracey, that pen, I know we have happy surprises but that was a total opposite. Years ago I had a pen do that when I was making Christmas cards. I didn't realise and I had Gold fingerprints over everything. I tried to salvage it by making then into fingerprint Robins but it was bad. At least yours was salvageable, phew!!! A really good beginners video.❤❤🎉

[@UniquelyCreated.by.Aleksa]

This is amazingly informative especially for someone like me who’s relatively new to resin and am trying to get my youtube channel up and running. I’m definitely subscribing to learn more tips from you. Thank you ❤

[@ginrincreates]

Gorgeous! It's a shame the gold spill would have hindered curing. It was a stunning result. That being said, I ADORE the geode effect!

[@miniscenesgb]

yes it's a shame that wouldn't have worked. More geodes coming up over the coming weeks by the way

[@PghFlip]

3:24 If you take your wooden sticks and give them a light seal with resin (uv or otherwise) they wont introduce bubbles.

[@miniscenesgb]

I just don;t use wooden sticks usually :) And with the resin I use, I don't really have bubble issues

[@PghFlip]

@@miniscenesgb sure, but a hint for anyone that might use them since they often come in kits, and you said you were focusing on beginners.

[@miniscenesgb]

I say that in many videos

[@PghFlip]

Great job hun

[@miniscenesgb]

Thanks Angel, trying to pack my videos with tips for beginners as I have a feeling there will be a lot of handmade gifts going out this christmas - and starter kits as gifts

[@barbarameriton4818]

Really great explanations Tracey. Wish this was out when I started with resin. Would you mind doing a dirty pour one day? I don’t know if you have to let colours sit 1st & how to best pour it. Thanks either way. ❤

[@miniscenesgb]

Great suggestion!I'll add that to my to do list

[@DianeHow-z8s]

32:40 my name is Ivy andI’m 8 years old. I would link to know if you can make butterflies in the resin mould.

[@miniscenesgb]

yes, you can get moulds that actually make butterflies :)

[@gunjansrivastava2313]

Beautiful but what did you put in the form of drops

[@miniscenesgb]

Thanks Lisa :)

[@RuthanneRaiche-w4h]

Thanks for making a video for beginners. I am actually starting with the same set of molds. At one point you talked about sanding the edges if you have a sharp edge. What would you use to sand them?

[@miniscenesgb]

Glad it was helpful! Would yo believe I usually use just a big nail file :)

[@karenbaldry8096]

I forgot to ask after putting on the relief stuff and gold foil do you need to top coat ?

[@miniscenesgb]

No, you can if you want but I find it's fixed solid without
