#90. Resin STAINED GLASS - NO SOLDER - ART DECO. A Tutorial by Daniel Cooper

Hi all,
All product links are further down 😊 ⬇️.
This is an experiment on a stained glass effect using copper wire alongside UV resin and liquid dyes. I know there are quicker ways of doing this without the copper, however, I wanted it to look authentic in design, I hope you like it 😊.

Mr. Cooper you are nothing but terrific. That is simply beautiful. Please don't under estimate your talent and skill. You rank right up there near the top of resin artists. You are inspirational to us newbies.

[@daniel..cooper]

Wow, thank you so much 😊😊

THIS! TRUTH! I'd give it a 1000 likes if I could! ❤❤❤

[@deniselovelace3075]

I love this one too!!! You have such creative ideas! Sometimes quite fiddly! 🤣. Love that word. Another I want to try! Thanks!!!!

Thanks Denise, yes, quite fiddly 😂😂

[@lesliespiers8407]

New fan here, I found out about you from Steve McDonald, he said you were fantastic @ artwork, & he was right...so glad I found your site :)

[@daniel..cooper]

Thanks Leslie 😊 Welcome 😊

[@cynthiacarr2093]

Here from Steve McDonald's channel! Beautiful Artistry you do indeed New Subscriber! Been wanting to do stained glass with resin and actually I used the flat wire also before I became familiar with your channel! I'm always wanting to learn new techniques! I'm so happy I was on the right track! Tyfs! I made coasters with the wire. I poured a light pour into mold let it cure enough to set the wire in to hold it in place and a wall piece using toilet roll cut out shapes same method! Its Beautiful!😁👏🏾👏🏾❤👍🏾

[@daniel..cooper]

Yay, welcome 😊 Thanks for popping over from Steve video! Oooh, coasters sound like a great idea! I have lots of different ideas from this video, can't wait to experiment more 😊😊

[@fairyspunfibers9098]

Why must it be "perfect"?! *We* don't care! 😊 Daniel! ... This is *COOL!* That actually looks like fun, because I *really don't like soldering!* 😅 I am very impressed with how nice it looks - very pretty and I'd wear it! Just put a flat bail on the back, pop on a chain; there ya go! Oh, that wee lantern is adorable! Just make your design ON the glass! Oh, I do that allll the time, Dan. It's called getting " tang-toungled". lol

[@daniel..cooper]

Thanks! 😃 I'm not a lover of soldering, should have seen my attempts 😂🤣

[@fairyspunfibers9098]

I guess it takes a lot of practice!

[@sallycartwright8386]

You’ve done it again, exactly what I had been imagining doing, using resin and wire together like stained glass! Thank you so much, you’ve given me a great place to start, I hadn’t thought about using UV resin to join the parts 👍😃 I can’t stop watching your videos!

[@JuliasCraftyChaos]

Daniel, I absolutely love your experiments!! And the "wonkiness" adds to the character of the piece. Perfection isn't a part of homemade pieces. I love it and am going to give this a try!! Thank you for your inspiration 🥰

Great work, Daniel. You've inspired my mother to want to try working with resin, which means I will have to tidy my work area..

[@daniel..cooper]

Thanks Andrew 😊 Best get tidying 😉😂

[@Asher5250]

Been researching how to do this for a while. There is a great product called Bondic that I think would be perfect for this.

[@daniel..cooper]

Thanks, will look it up 😊😊

[@katrinthorsdottir7514]

Perfect only exists in faerie tails. Personally I love this idea and how it came out. Well done. 😊❤ I could see damming tape helping to keep seepage to a minimum.

[@tammytoth5874]

Oh my GOODNESS YOU ARE SO TALENTED!! Make it look so easy

[@maddieadams75]

You did an excellent job, with a very small pattern. I used to work with stain glass. Soldering is a pain on small items, I had to give it up as the soldering compounds create lesions on my corneas. (And yes I wore high quality protective eye wear) ❤

[@daniel..cooper]

Wow, I really want to try real glass at some point

[@maddieadams75]

@@daniel..cooper you should try it, it’s very satisfying. The only thing that is truly expensive is the glass, and your time. The beauty of stain glass is none other. ♥️

[@joelledeman166]

This is actually really special to me. My grandad used to make tiffanies like these (but with the soldering ;) ). He died quite a while ago and sadly my grandma passed away the day before Christmas. I got some of the tiffanies they had hanging in front of the window and this inspires me to maybe try and make some of my own! So thanks Dan, your super creative and awesome ideas do more than you might think they would...

[@daniel..cooper]

Wow, thanks Joelle, it's comments like these which make the hard work so worthwhile 🥰. So sorry for your loss. Sending hugs.x

[@SaraHA2371]

I REALLY wanna see you redo all of the lantern glass with resin stained glass. Even if it's just a simple design.

[@daniel..cooper]

I will add it to my list 🥰🥰

[@irenerhynes6732]

Daniel you have done it again. I love this piece of work. You are truly talented.

[@daniel..cooper]

Thank you very much! 😊😊

It doesn’t have to be "perfect." It’s a beautiful piece! I make bezels out of flat wire myself… got tired of paying for ‘em… lol…

[@maladylis08]

Ohhh I love this ! I saw someone do this with heavier copper that was flat and made a bigger one. It would make a lovely pendant !

[@daniel..cooper]

Thank you 😊

This is very interesting and it turned out nicely. I don’t do resin but I like watching creations with it. Thanks for the video. 🎉🎉🎉

Thank you 😊

[@susansilva2097]

Really....I bow to you Sir !!

[@VizardKusa]

Omg, I have followed you for ages and been in your Discord since it's beginning. But I missed this video! I wanted to try a stained glass after seeing stained glass wire frames available for purchase on Amazon. But.... I wanted to do one that was a bit more personal for Christmas gifts later this year. I wondered if I could use wire, a glass panel or something, UV resin for some securing before filling, etc, and do this myself. And here you are! Thank you and your brilliantly crafty mind!

[@Shines-On]

Wow!!! That is stunning!!! It came out perfect. And by that I mean, imperfections look better imo. It gives it a handmade look which makes it unique and special. Fantastic job! New subscriber. ❤

[@leemccluskey8522]

THAT IS REALLY PRETTY! AMAZING JOB! :)

[@funo6581]

That turned out great, especially for a first attempt. There’s a product called Pebeo that’s available on Amazon, it resembles lead lines and comes in different colors. You could put a sheet if Acetate on top of a pattern and trace the lines with the Pebeo, then after it sets up add the UV or 2 part. I love that you made it pendant sized. Soldering that wire would be difficult. I’m a retired Stained Glass artisan and I’ve yet to try any Stained Glass techniques in resin.😆 Great job Daniel!❤

[@fairyspunfibers9098]

I have the black and clear Pebeo, and lemme tell ya! That stuff does not want to come out nice and even. Oy! I'd stick with wire - square wire, for sure. 👍😊

[@daniel..cooper]

Yes, another viewer mentioned this, I'm definitely going to look it up 😊 thank you 😊

[@paulaskuse559]

Which pebeo product though as that seems to be the brand name as a few different items … I’m probably being thick though sorry lol😮😊

[@sheryltrevino7966]

I love this. Very creative. I have also heard that you can place your mold on a tile covered with aluminum foil and it’s supposed to help reflect to cure the bottom. I haven’t tried it and if you haven’t then it might not hurt to try it. Thanks for sharing.

[@daniel..cooper]

Thanks Sheryl, yes, I have heard this but still yet to try 😊😊

[@dianechrismas6055]

Love it so pretty especially when added to the tea light holder.

[@daniel..cooper]

[@joanneheley496]

As always Dan, beautiful xx

[@daniel..cooper]

Thanks Joanne 😊

[@xiaochi9022]

I fixed piece of cello tape between the wire and the printed image，instead of the silicon mold，it saves more time and it reduces leaking. I need to cure both sides together（with mirror underneath the tape）before pulling it off. otherwise part of the resin would be torn off together with the tape. I suggest adding some silver or gold glitters to the backside to make the resin shiny.

[@the.resintist]

Ooh my what an amazing idea. I have no ideal where you get these ideals but just so great I love it. You do inspire me and many others to try something new. I got loads of resin treats for Christmas. These pastes are awesome for the money but they were cheaper under £20 before Christmas but still red, blue, yellow, white, and black every essential colour you need to create any colour you need for under £30 and so much and opaque I don't think I'll ever need more. Just a toothpick dipped in lightly is enough to colour so much resin and great for bloom style art. As always your a 🌟 top art as always very informative and useful plus educational. Love what you do always 👌❤️👌🫶💪👍🫵 awesome 👊😊😃😉love to take you fishing 🎣 to show you another hobby 😉❤️😀

[@daniel..cooper]

Wow, yes, pastes go a loooong way! I still have some 3/4 full after 2yrs. I used to fish a lot, haven't done for many years now, I can't afford to start up again 😂

If you use a really small paint brush, a size 0 or 00, you can "paint" in your UV Resin in small pieces at a time… I mainly work with UV resin and when I make small jewelry pieces like this, that is what I use to control the amount of uv Resin needed… afterwards, go over the entire piece with clear uv resin to seal everything in! Great job for your first attempt at doing this!

Interesting to see other people’s techniques. I’ve been using this method to make suncatchers for the last year based on an original idea from Steve McDonald. I used an acetate sheet (glossy side up) as a base, 3mm wire and stuck it down with clear silicone. Rarely leaked. But I used epoxy as the areas were too big for UV really. I also found that once i’d shaped all the wire that a very thin clear layer first then ‘held’ all the other internal pieces. Approx 6 or 7”. Same principle though. Don’t think I can add a picture here.

Yep, put a piece of clear acrylic blank over the top of the lamp legs… laying your mold or bezel tape directly on the lights can melt the bezel tape and also ruin the mold… the blank I use came from one of my polymer clay kits that comes with an acrylic roller pin, two blanks to roll you clay out on and cutting devices… I found out the hard way that laying the pieces I was curing the underside of on the lamp melted the bezel tape and ruined the piece I was making…. I just happened to glance at that piece of clear acrylic I had and thought if it was long enough I could set it on the legs of the lamp and the. I could put the pieces to be cured on their underside on that clear acrylic piece… I hadn’t used this particular blank yet so it was crystal clear… so now, that piece of clear acrylic is only used for curing my uv pieces…
