RESIN SAFETY
Please use resin with care. Any health and safety questions should be asked directly to the company of the resin you use. Read your product safety data sheet (SDS) before using, always wear PPE- nitrile gloves, respirator and goggles or a full-face respirator. Do it in an open, ventilated area- separate to your living spaces. Long sleeved clothing is also advised. Do some research into using resin safely so you can be as well informed as possible to the possible health risks of using it incorrectly.

[@heidibiscan6148]

Thank you so much for sharing your tips with us!..I was going purchase some latex, but I already have some glue, so I'll definitely try that first! 🌻💖🌻

[@yumkikko]

I don't get why people downvote a video 🙄, especially when it's full of GREAT TIPS! Also when one considers that there is no actual single comprehensive guide to resin crafting, I feel it's rude to downvote a video and not advise the reason. (Assuming the downvote was about content and not something else like videography, audio, etc.)

[@LatinaGem856]

Completely agree. I rarely down vote a video. And if I got something out of it (even if 3 out of the 4 I already knew) I always like the video. Everyone does things differently. Just because you don't do it the same way doesn't mean the video isn't useful or deserves a down vote.

[@SeriouslyCreative]

Haha thank you.

[@kyflymusic]

Your tutorial videos are perfect! I’ve also found that using popsicle sticks to level pieces help as well! Toothpicks can also be a really helpful tool to dome intricate pieces! 😍💖

[@SeriouslyCreative]

Yes i love using toothpicks for tiny corners 😊

[@AyeshaShaSha]

Gurl if I see you using my beloved rice like that one more time... 😂😂😂😂 🍚😍🍚😍🍚 Thank you for this though because we all know the struggle is REAL!!

[@SeriouslyCreative]

😂😂😂 if only it wasn't so useful i wouldn't keep using it like that!!! Thanks lovely, resin overspill can be such a struggle!!!

[@Kreative_Rainbow]

Hahaha!! 😂🤣 Rice- it's not just for eating any more. 🙀😉 I suppose you could use split peas or some kind of lentil!! 🥰🥰

[@erindowling8540]

Finally…a good use for rice ;)

[@marshakrska5304]

Totally love your work and videos. Please keep them coming. My question is scratches on resin. I am new to resin art. Is there a way to remove them? Accidental scratches on surface during sanding edges.

[@Kreative_Rainbow]

Very well done and informative!! 👏👏 I wish I had known this years ago when I started!! 😉 Very frustrating without this step!! 🥰

[@SeriouslyCreative]

Thank you! I know me too! I had many meltdowns and tears over wrecked pieces

[@suegore5929]

Thank you, this was a good video. I never thought of not using latex because of allergies, I almost bought some. Good catch!

[@SeriouslyCreative]

I'm not 100% sure if residue would affect those with an allergy, but better to be safe 💖

[@lauradorling7693]

Can I ask where you get the bits you put in your shakers? I just watched a video of yours and you had a bag of gorgeous pinks and purple bits like shells etc. x

[@v.mishrasart43]

Good morning🌞👍

[@purplementhol3388]

I usually use tape. But I also try with PVA glue after I watched your videos. After many months I don't do resin, the first resin video I watched was your video again. It's so relaxing as your process is clear & clean.. I wish success for you~

[@SeriouslyCreative]

Thank you i appreciate that 💖

[@purplementhol3388]

@@SeriouslyCreative I just wanna tell you that my favourite is the Pastel Goth & Sunset videos 💯 I was tried fee times to make exactly like your results (colours), but it's hard to have exact colours especially all the sunset ones haha

[@SeriouslyCreative]

@@purplementhol3388 haha thank you! I love the sunset colours too! Try the miniature sweet pigments in my description, they are my absolute favourite!

[@erindowling8540]

Why did you quit doing resin? I’m afraid I won’t be able to quit now that I have finally started, and I really don’t need another hobby ;)

[@purplementhol3388]

@@SeriouslyCreative oh you bought it from Miniature Sweet?? The one that also selling molds???

[@divyasonkar7563]

Hey, thanks for the information.. I want to know whether I can use any glue, like Fevicol (available in India)?

[@prempremglamourz1]

The tips are very good and useful. I wish have known this when I started my resin work a year ago where after demolding and excited have to ruin the front during doming - most of my first work had to be thrown away (tip number 4). Do you use cold or warm soapy water to wash the finished products? Thanks so much for sharing this video 👍🏽

[@SeriouslyCreative]

Thanks so much watching! Ruining a piece after doming is heartbreaking isn't it?! Yes i just use warm soapy water to wash them 😊

[@amalgalal8964]

Thanks for the tip 👍 😀 will the PVA affect the shiny of the resin

[@SeriouslyCreative]

Nope doesn't after the shine at all 😊

[@boojeecloset]

Wow i never thought to wash my pieces after i used the liquid latex

[@maryrust569]

How I cleen my molds is with packing tape and baby' wipes them out in soupy worm water and dry

[@bubblyyip]

What is that blue mat that you placed your pieces when doming them??

[@misstricksmix]

Nice sharing

[@SeriouslyCreative]

Thank you 💖

[@ankj4138]

Hi there this was a really nice tutorial. Well I have a doubt regarding disposal of cures resin...like these spill over once, cups & wetwipe used for cleaning the.. is there a video on disposal if yes plz do share them

[@SeriouslyCreative]

I will do some research and I'll let you know. As far as i know it can go in the normal rubbish (landfill)

[@ankj4138]

@@SeriouslyCreative oo thank you for the reply. ❤️ If you do find a proper disposal do share them. We can't burn the wipes & cups used for mixing cuz it is toxic right. So should we dig it in. How do you dispose it. It will really be helpful if u could do a video about this too ☺️

[@user-dn9vd9xg9p]

Can i use the liquid latex on the back of wooden earrings when i am resining the front.? Thanks. 😊😊

[@SeriouslyCreative]

I'm not sure how it would work as I've never tried on wood. An educated guess would be no, as I'd worry about not being able to peel it off due to the wood being porous...

[@erindowling8540]

I’m just starting to use resin and have leaned a lot from you. Do you dome both sides? If only one, then which side? I’m thinking the back side, because the front is already shiny and smooth, but I saw someone paint the resin over the front to make it even more shiny. Some tips please!

[@SeriouslyCreative]

I have a video on doming! It is really up to you which side/sides you dome. Some people don't dome at all.

[@els9893]

How do you clean these mats? I have a few from Kmart and with overspill they just look so gross, even if I try and clean it it takes forever or I just can’t get everything off

[@SeriouslyCreative]

I usually just scrub them with an old nail brush in warm soapy water! They never look perfect though and they definitely look more worn over time

[@josephalbano5563]

have you tried hot glue?

[@jennifermarie1230]

But when using painters tape you have to pull the tape off at a certain time otherwise it will adhere to the piece if the resin starts to harden. When do you know that it is not too little time or too much time beacause if you touch the piece to take off the tape too early you're not gonna ruin it because it is still wet if that makes sense.

[@yuikechriz]

Hi, Can i cover the edges with PVA Glue? It can peel off easily right? I watch so many artist resin with pva glue but they only do the back not the edges

[@SeriouslyCreative]

Yes you can definitely do the edges if you want!

[@yuikechriz]

@@SeriouslyCreative i'll try right away, thank youu 😊😊
