I can hear you just fine and furthermore look at the tiny baby footprint in the middle of the screen ❤❤❤awwweee

[@miniscenesgb]

Thanks I did get worried about the sound as someone said it was too quiet. Recently someone said my videos were too dark too. I do worry and try to keep improving so feedback is great

[@bexcraftdesigns]

Really pretty they look like ice cubes to me hehe 😊

[@miniscenesgb]

they do a bit lol. Glad you like it

[@christines2451]

What a great idea. Love this

[@miniscenesgb]

Thank you! 😊

[@mmummacreations7675]

Hi Tracey a little too when pouring silicone is to put a piece of paper or cardboard underneath you work that you are pouring into then you don’t have to stress about your mat too much x

[@miniscenesgb]

Yes, I have over 40 mats so I don't stress over them - I don't like waste so wherever possible I just use the cleanable silicone mats and look after them :) I do put old card and paper under some things as they are recyclable but when I am filming that is impractical :)

[@mmummacreations7675]

@@miniscenesgb yeah I’m the same sorry I’m super new to your channel and I’m loving all the videos.

[@miniscenesgb]

@@mmummacreations7675 thank you so much for subscribing and I do appreciate suggestions and ideas very much. Always something to learn :) Thanks for your support

[@traceyshenton1920]

Good job 😊

[@miniscenesgb]

Thanks Tracey :)

[@Ali-H3444]

It's gorgeous and I like the idea of putting smaller crystals in with the larger ones. I actually have the smaller ones but I don't have the size you have lol.😊

[@miniscenesgb]

Go for it! It's crying out to have the size variations in there, it'd look more natural. I'd love to see what you do if you try it

[@resinartists]

It made beautiful clusters of crystals 😍

[@miniscenesgb]

It did. I'll have another try sometime but in the meantime I thought it was good to get this idea out there so people could try it :)

[@maddieadams75]

Very informative tutorial❤

[@miniscenesgb]

Thank you 😊

[@JuliasCraftyChaos]

Not "perfect" but I love the idea and instructions!!! Thank you!!😊

[@miniscenesgb]

Yes, I will try it again sometime but it was good enough to show it has potential I think. Let me know if you try it and if so how it goes :)

[@JuliasCraftyChaos]

@@miniscenesgb I def will!! I might be able to try this weekend

[@Quill._]

Maybe not perfect but your tutorial is great. I appreciate the info.

[@miniscenesgb]

Glad it was helpful!

[@julieparker6038]

Great job ❤

[@miniscenesgb]

Thanks :)

[@michelle_resinrebel]

Hi Tracey love this idea 💡 I'm sure your next one will be perfect 🥰 thanks for sharing ❤❤❤ xxx

[@miniscenesgb]

Thanks Michelle

[@dalemaclaren7576]

Very pretty Tracey. Looking forward to seeing your next video soon ❤

[@miniscenesgb]

Thanks so much 😊 I have a few short ones scheduled up already for the next few days.

[@bobswihart]

It turned out wonderful. 😊

[@miniscenesgb]

Thanks :) This was a fun one

[@EnchantedHuesPress]

Hi Tracey! Really enjoying your videos. You mentioned in this one that you have a lot of allergy problems with different resins. I do too, and I have only been using UV resin because it doesn't bother me. You mentioned you would attach a video of some safety info but I don't see the link. could you send that to me. Thanks for all your work and sharing with us!

[@miniscenesgb]

Good point - I meant to add it to all my videos. I was going to make one myself but this guy's advice exactly corresponds with the advice of my chemical compliance expert friend. So I just share this kzbin.info/www/bejne/o6OUdmyslJ6Zrdk. I'll make sure the link is in all future video descriptions. It scares me when I hear people recommend reusing gloves, things like that. It's just one brand of resin I'm allergic to - and the rest of their product line i'm fine with. The chemical data sheet , when I finally managed to get it from them, isn't very compliant but does show a high level of one of the components more than other brands so I think that must be it. Nowadays I just avoid that brand and I'm fine. So it's worth trying other brands, and of course going crazy with PPE. All the best

We can barely hear you, might need a microphone.

[@miniscenesgb]

I am using a microphone and others hear me ok? No one has ever mentioned that being an issue. Just played it back, i hear me fine - I have a respirator on but i hear me fine
