*Brand new WOW* Resin Technique anyone can do

[@mookzmom]

I'm late to the party, but wanted to explain (in case you haven't already heard) about uv gel glue for foils. You just apply it smoothly over the area you want to have the foil. Then you cure the glue for between 15-30 seconds. Different gel glues have different cure times. When you take it out of the lamp, it should be quite sticky and will work well for adhering the foils. I hope this helps! Your projects again are lovely ❤

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

Thankyou sooooo much xxx a few have said this now but I still massively appreciate your advice 😍😍😍

[@cheriboone]

I'm later to the party 😅🎉❤. I loved this video. I love trying new things with epoxy resin etc. And what you did is gorgeous!!!

[@BattleReadyToaster..o_O]

Also take alcohol wipe and clean the back (plain side) of the foil. While the back of my foil is drying is when I put down my foil gel glue, cure it and it will be crazy sticky, put my foil down, smooth it out, rub it smooth, pull the foil off and boom pretty foiled resin piece

[@ginacable5376]

A quick fine spray of methylated spirits takes the bubbles out. X

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

Heyyyy lovelies, check out Sharon Lindleys channel here: youtube.com/@SharonLindleyVividDaysArt thank you so much for joining me in my new Ocean series. This is a brand new technique for me ...never used before. It is not new to the world. Let me know how you use your nail foils down in the comments. Any tips or tricks I could use please do let me know.

[@resinartists]

You already know all the things,Ms.Claire,I would share my method with you.I use Mod podge on the base resin layer,after almost drying I.e.aroumd 45 mins later,I apply the nail foil and press it down smoothly and evenly.Lastly slowly remove the foil to get the designs transferred to the piece

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

@resinartists Wow thankyou this is so so helpful 😍😍😍 you're a star for sharing thankyou xx

[@resinartists]

@@ClairesCraftyCorner much love and keep inspiring us🥰🙏

[@margiereichard3179]

Using a thin coat of Foil Gel will let you completely cover your piece with the Foil! I use it for nails but I also use it to make Initial Key Chains & other jewelry and some ornaments! I do a thin layer of my Foil Gel I cure it then put the Foil down rub it with a small silicone tool then I seal the foils in by doming my piece or some times I just use Diamond Thick or even another thin layer of resin just depends on the look I going for! Hope this helps glad to help if you have any questions about foil gel!!

[@Incredible43]

They came out beautifully I love the Whale. I do a beachy coastal Christmas tree this idea would be awesome for ornaments. Great video so exciting thank you for sharing 🎨

[@ResinRadiance-n5h]

They are so pretty. I love them simply beautiful and beautifully simple. 💕💕💕

[@lindalee5408]

These are absolutely fabulous...I love the semi abstract of it. Not having the nail foil totally fill the backgrounds gives it a beautiful artsy effect.

[@knitsewfancy]

I use a tooth brush to help transfer the foil to the surface. Also, if you will hit the white color with a tiny blast from a blow dryer, it makes perfect waves! Great video!

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

Thankyoooooo so much lovely ❤️❤️

[@Cindyo77]

I find using an eraser on the end of a pencil to rub down the foil works well or for the more transparent foils lay them on the resin as it cures with ends hanging off then use the hangy bit to peel it off when the resin has cured. I love the holo seafoam foil you use, its gorgeous, oh and nail stamping with gel polish on resin pendants is a lot of fun

[@angelortega7708]

Love all of them!!! The two color ones are my favorite!! Thank you for sharing Ms Claire!!!

[@witewickah]

I love these! Very creative! I'm new to resin too, and I am learning so much from you! With my resin tape, I fold the sides over so they're not sticky so I can put my fingers on it when filling bezels and I can hold them still, so much easier than tweezers!

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

ohhhhh my goodness ... that is absolutely genius thank you so so much xx A real game changer lol I am forever sticking to it I really appreciate your help on that thank yoo xx

[@JenniferPallone-nl8ul]

Claire, I too am rather new to UV resin but have found if you place the resin in your bezel, affix the foil to top where you want it, and cure for 1 full minute before removing the foil, it meshes wonderfully to the resin without need of the foil glue ( which I also purchased). This method has worked the best for me instead of only tiny bits adhering, all of the foil sticks where you placed it.

[@barbarameriton4818]

I use foil glue on set resin then press nail foil down & dome. Works a treat.

[@charmainelouw1175]

Love watching you perform your MAGIC!!! I must still get the courage to play with resin.

[@Kathy-Carr]

You have such a good imagination! Thank you for the ideas. ❣️🌻

Oooo, love them! You need to get some tiny silicone dish things. They are great for mixing small amounts of uv resin!

This is super cute! I like the shark bezel the best. I think I like that one not only for the shark, but because there is slightly less white in it. This is a …new to me… technique. Thank you for sharing!

Oh these are stunning!! I had to rush over and watching this one immediately after seeing your haul video and it did not disappoint! I really am interested in those nail foils now too!! Might be a whole other hobby of supplies I can start collecting! Lol

[@elisashue5086]

I think they turned out adorable! Thank you. 😊😊

[@calliemyers9469]

I do nails as well and have used foils a lot, you might want to fill it up more and cure it so it's more flat and doesn't go up the sides as much. Paint on the glue and cure it for 1 minute or whatever the bottle says, wipe it gently/briefly with alcohol and transpose the foil on with a stick/tool very thoroughly and check it, scrape more, check it etc.

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

Thankyooooooo so much 😍😍😍😍

[@castaway132]

I was using nail foils just only for the back side and then I am doming it with uv resin. I never used it inside the bezel.... so I have to try it how it comes out if I use the nail foil inside....thank you for sharing ❤

Claire, thank you so much for sharing this with us! I'm so happy you got these & im excited to see how else you might use them. I work mostly with polymer clay (btw, i loved your poly clay projects, so beautiful!) & got a bunch of nail foils to use with it. I also love resin but im just not creative enough in either medium to come up with good ideas, so i have tons of beautiful foils that im dying to use in/with clay & resin but i just can't figure out how. This video is already so helpful, thank you!

I just came to watch this directly from your haul video, and I'm not sure if it's irresponsible to tell you there are all kinds of aquatic animals in nail decals and stickers, too?

I have also used a very thin layer of Aleene's Tack-It glue since it dries "tacky"

[@loriwargo9271]

there are foil glues that air dry if you are worried about curing the gel foil glue. apply thinly to the area you want the foil to stick to then let it air dry until clear. lay the foil onto the area then use a silicone tool to gently rub the design onto the area. it should stick well to the glue and you just tap and pull the foil until you have it covered. i hope this helps. love your videos.

[@sherryleggett1612]

Now that the fronts are done you could turn them over and add a colour to the back,white,blue,black,silver,whatever looks best from the front. Then another layer of uv resin to coat the back, domed a bit if you wanted to. You may want to check up Daniel Cooper. He does absolutely amazing things with UV resin jewelry. He has cost me a fortune because everything he does I want to do too. Just what I needed, more molds and colours and Mica. Prepare to spend the evening watching. He is amazing. That’s where I got the idea for the backs. Enjoy your new toys.

Hi claire just wanted to mention I am not sure but I have wood floors which have polyurethane on it and I must say this does go yellow over time and gives a ting colour so wondering if this will be the same as uv resin ?

Heyyyyyyy lovely .... as far as I know every resin will yellow over time if its clear. However ... I have yet to see a 5 years later or 10 years later video ... so im not sure about UV at this stage xx

I stick the nail transfers/foils onto the wet resin and cure all together then remove when cured and pull off the backing from the foil it gives all fuller image stick rather than bits here and there

How about using a silicone stick? Whether it be a pointed one or a slanted one. I think you might be able to get a small bit at a time.
