For 5 years, I have been collecting various molds, resins of all types, alcohol inks, metals, powders, etc, to start a new resin art hobby. I started making resin bookmarks, small molds for earrings, keychains, and pendants. I have big molds sitting here that I need to utilize. I think I'm intimidated, or I might like it too much and stray from the jewelry designing altogether. I even started wire weaving classes. Not to mention, I make natural medicine tinctures, and I want to make aloe vera soaps. I have many healthy aloe plants. I've gone through $30,000.00 for materials of everything. I have a little store here. materials sitting in a room with other inventory to design clay jewelry. 😢😮 I am retired and over ambitious, or I need a shrink! Lol😂 😮😅 during covid is when I learned I had this gift to create my workday corporate job and never really had time discover these gifts when I worked full-time I also taught aerobic classes the Jane Fonda routines remember those? Plus, I loved going dancing on my weekends if I had any off. Thank you so much I've been learning so much about resin from you. I am new to your Channel and enjoy the time.

[@rhodanorton6944]

You are not alone!!

[@Soifdesang9]

I hear that, I am a "Resinista" and could open a store or school at the very least!!!

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

Wow!!! You need to open a store or give lessons to use all that stuff!! You sound like you have many talents! Welcome to the channel, hopefully I can inspire you to create more resin pieces at least!

@@LorenasChesed1beads Wow I miss my Aloe plants I’ve made Aloe soap from the plant the soap is amazing feeling. When I moved I had to leave my plants behind it broke my heart I had them for 4 years plus all the pups I grew from them. I tried this year in the south my plant died. I couldn’t bring them inside

[@stsfuzzybear4613]

I have a suggestion for working with powders. Take a piece of cheap copy paper. Fold it in half. Wipe with a fabric dryer sheet. Put it under whatever you’re going to be putting your powder in. As long as no liquid gets onto the paper you can pick it up carefully with it partially folded and return the powder to its jar to use again. I’ve been rubber stamping for over 30 years and saved a ton of embossing powder and glitter this way. I usually use a brush to move the powder into the center of the fold for pouring and then to get the last off the paper. Which can be reused over and over. As can the dryer sheet if kept in a zip lock baggie. Static can be a pain which the sheets control. Felt bad watching you lose any of your favorite wheat powder.

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

Oh wow!! I hope I can remember this!

[@janicehetrick3]

Very cute projects. That is very interesting making your own pigment pastes, I've been watching a lot of your videos but have not watched the first one where you made pigment paste. Very educational video, thank you Michelle. That star fish is quite lovely. ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Oh my goodness ❤ ! Everything came out gorgeous ! Love the starfish keychain & the carousel 🎠. Actually I love 💕 it all !! The wheat color is so elegant looking & oh that blue -perfect ! Thank you for the refresher on making pigments. Fantastic learning video

[@Jacqy-b9o]

You mentioned about your earlier video so I found it and I have made black paste and made up a peach one too, they have both worked brilliantly. Thank you Michelle for all your tips and tricks ❤

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

Awesome!!

[@leetteduran4580]

Love the idea of using my leftover resin parts to make the pigment paste! And absolutely love all the items you finished off!

[@diangallo]

You totally impressed me! Love the carousel and the way you finished it! Thank you for the mica mixing demonstration, someday I will try it when I quit being lazy! 💕

[@georgianacairns145]

Thank you Michelle for this .

[@Tami-wo8le]

Cool to learn about pasteo making, I have heard rumors that you could, will give it a try! And of course your carousel and everything are beautiful . ❤

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

You are so welcome!

[@donnaselinger8602]

All turned out phenomenal. ❤❤❤ the⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ carousel.

[@tinamcleod4328]

Beautiful as always!! I wish I had half your creativity. I have seen someone else do the carousel, I can't for the life of me remember who though (sorry). They did turn it inside out and brush on the mica powder but they put on a paper tube around the centre to stop the powder making a mess on it. Hope this helps.😉

[@mollythorpe3545]

I make the large paws and hearts as Bag Tags with a large keychain to attach them to the bag.

[@jeanneanderson979]

That came beautiful, Thank you for teaching me❤❤❤

[@EmersonRising]

All of them are beautiful.

[@mayrarodz3325]

I loved how everything came out. Will definitely be trying out the mica pigment paste. Tks.

[@joanstone4162]

That blue is amazing

[@tamianderson94]

OMG Michelle…that turned out absolutely fantastic!

[@atomicredhead]

Love the carousel mold. I used mica powder and colored my horses. It’s adorable and found a little flag for the top.

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

Great idea!!

[@atomicredhead]

@@glitznglitterbymichelle1 you're the best. Would love to see it.

[@melissaphillis7247]

❤❤🎉🎉 love the pigments pastes! The paw print was my favourite! And the Carousel? Oh my gosh!!❤❤❤❤

[@hollylowery26]

The mortar is the bowl, and the pastel is the mashing club. 😂 I love this video and experiment. I beat the blue would marble beautifully.

[@LarisaPivtorak]

Love the starfish and carousel, going to order the mold right away. And thank you for sharing the pigment paste recipe!

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

You are so welcome!🤗

[@craftycreationsbytrish]

That awesome! Now I know what to do with my super gritty glow on the dark powders ❤

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

Great idea!!!

[@lindahale9876]

I love that blue.

[@raquelromano5310]

I have that mold. Although it was time-consuming, I successfully painted the horses, etc. with mica powder. It did make a bit of a mess on the walls when I turned it back right-side in, though. I used q-tips and alcohol to get in there and clean it up. It worked really well. I had to touch it up in a couple of places after demolding, but it was minor. Because of the mica, I was not able to spritz the mold with alcohol before pouring the resin. I haven’t gotten to the lid yet (I ran out of resin and time), but I’ll try to remember to post it on your Facebook page so you can see it done that way. I think the next time I make it, I’ll cast it with an eco pour so I can paint it afterwards in greater detail.

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

I'm sure it's beautiful!! I wasn't prepared to spend that much time cleaning the parts I didn't want it on LOL

[@jimmyyork5660]

Beautiful. Love the paw print.

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

Thanks so much 😊

[@nilsafaga74]

Thanks for re-doing this video❤

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

Sure!!

[@LorenasChesed1beads]

Hello I was watching you make pigment paste and at Michael's I saw these cute little jars , different shapes and sizes sold in 12 packs. They would be perfect for storing different colors.

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

Wonderful!

[@susiehall4053]

Love learning from you! I need to find your top coating video. You're a great teacher!

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

Oh thank you!

Beautiful pieces. Thanks for the tips. Gonna try this! 😅💕💕💕💕

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

Everything came out amazing. Thank you so much showing how to make pigment paste. I have so much mica powder to choose from.

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

Get busy!! LOL

[@dianelefever3608]

Beautiful work!! I definitely will make pigment. Thank you

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

You’re welcome 😊

[@lisaenoch6703]

I use UV resin for making jewelry, I make my own pigment paste,(although I didn't know that's what it was called lol) but I use either baby powder or corn starch with a little bit of resin and that way it takes soooo much less of the mica powder. I will also use alcohol ink and even acrylic paint for my color in my paste. The baby powder and cornstarch work really well and it kinda keeps the color from sinking to the bottom of whatever mold I'm using so fast. I don't know if this helps anyone but I hope so. I'm really enjoying your video thank you.

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

Thanks for the tips!!!

[@rhodanorton6944]

I would love to see the carousel on one of those lighted stands that go around, I bet it would be awesome!

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

OH great idea!

[@JoAnnJones-v6e]

Just gorgeous! i Love to make my own paste!

[@dianescraftycreations]

[@chloeainsworth4334]

I have a order of mica powders coming in and now I know what to do with them. I also have the carousel mold and I am planning to make it for my granddaughters 1st birthday but I was intimidated by it. Thank you for doing it today

[@cathee_with_2_ees569]

Love the carousel. Everything else is pretty too, but (a little secret) I've been collecting carousels for 35 years, so I'm kind of partial. 💞

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

Wow! I love them too since I was a small child, I haven't collected them though. I bet yours are beautiful!

[@genajones2823]

Love all of it

[@rosemarywilliams5136]

Thank you!

[@Marjanna1966]

Yeah, that makes more sense, i tried painting the horses with mica before pouring... I'll have to do it again your way 😂

[@doreenyoung7175]

I am cheap cheap cheap I use a espresso tamper from Amazon and a marble tile from home depot in total about $7. Also hit the dollar store eyeshadow and blush for great cheap colors. I also use my broken or expired eyeshadow for pigments. Think outside the box!!
