Love the dragons, they work super with mug. Love your work

[@pearlsullivan5725]

It came out beautiful!😍 Woodes Goodies has a great selection of flakes that are really reasonably priced & you get a decent amount. Plus you get them really fast.

Oh! Thanks I have to check them out!

[@Oonagh72]

Such a beautiful cup. The thumbnail immediately drew me in!

[@crystaluv3313]

Thank you!

I love this technique it is so cool. Instead of placing those teardrop looking individual pieces takes forever to do for pretty much the same outcome. Came out gorgeous! Thanks for sharing

[@michellegibson6440]

When you put the uv light on with your brush in the pan I just knew..well there went the brush 😂

[@becky6069]

Gorgeous cup. I love the technique and I am going to give it a try myself. Thanks for sharing.

Wow that is a lot of work. It turned out beautiful. 😘

[@crystaluv3313]

Thanks!

[@Drakescreationsshop]

WOW! This is incredible. I made a dragon skin cup a few months ago and I liked it, but I am going to try your version because it is so awesome! Thanks for sharing.

[@crystaluv3313]

Thank you!

[@Oonagh72]

I only use these great cups I get from the dollar store for five bucks. They’re great.

[@cherylburkitt9722]

It's great...lovely n unique.well done!

[@crystaluv3313]

Thanks!

[@discord1317]

Absolutely Brilliant technique!!!! Gorgeous tumbler, this will happen as soon as I get my tumblers in. Thank you for sharing!

[@crystaluv3313]

Thank you!

[@sanditubia5061]

This came out beautiful! I've done Dragon cups and they're definitely not of work. You did great!

[@crystaluv3313]

Thank you!

[@tovahhandley2721]

This is beautiful. I also want to thank you for not putting the music so loud it scares you when it comes on lol.

[@brigittefagan3495]

Turned out gorgeous! I love dragons and dragon skin/scales are my favorite to make. Never thought about doing a galaxy one that way. Now my brain is thinking.....lol If you really like the tiny bubbles. Fill a large bowl in the sink. You will get the small bubbles (my husband gave me that idea).

[@crystaluv3313]

Great idea! Thanks!

[@tippetsm]

I love this! I also live the dragons. I know you wouldnt have put them on but I think they are stunning!!!! I wish this could be done with regular epoxy.

[@crystaluv3313]

I saw a tutorial of an artist using quick set epoxy with the bubbles on a banvas and it worked, but it was a flat surface

[@mercury3440]

Can you do a video on how to sand a pre painted cup. It will be very helpful

[@crystaluv3313]

Yes, I can do that!

[@mercury3440]

@@crystaluv3313 thank you!

[@scentuousbazaar4072]

The flakes are foil flakes

[@melissasampson961]

Have you considered using the dawn dish soap spray rather then blowing the bubbles?

[@crystaluv3313]

I bet that would work for small bubbles

[@vonellevanzant237]

Let me guess which farm store. LOLOL. Do you mind listing the brand(s) of the alliexpress products. There are thousands. Lol. I've seen Chamleon powders for sale, too. However, they come in tiny, tiny jars, also. Wow! That stainless side is nearly blinding....blindingly beautiful! I do believe this is my favorite dragon cup!! What a beautiful use of this technique! Those are very nice dragons! Why are we always our own worst critics? Don't second guess yourself. This cup is amazing! As an aside, don't breathe too much mica. It's so fine it just floats everywhere. I use a mask, just to make sure I'm not overdosing in it.

[@crystaluv3313]

Thank you so much! I will try to look up the Aliexpress stores and let you know. Yes, mica and those flakes get EVERYWHERE! wear a mask for sure!

[@PTVforever3221]

If you use a smaller open mouth straw the bubbles would have come out smaller.

[@crystaluv3313]

Thanks!

[@discord1317]

I saw you put the brush under the UV light, how did that not cure the brush hard? Is it a special brush? did you clean it somehow? inquiring minds must know! Please lol

[@discord1317]

Nevermind, I'm a Spaz!!! I didn't catch what kind of brush it was the first time. I'm guessing the resin comes right off with the silicone brush. Do you remember where you got the brush?

[@crystaluv3313]

I bought the silicone brush at the Dollar Tree, but you can also find them on Amazon!

[@discord1317]

@@crystaluv3313 That works really well for a dollar store brush. Thank you so much for getting back to me. Wish you luck in all you do.

[@natashafinneran2179]

Do you have to use UV resin?

[@crystaluv3313]

I dont think this technique would work with regular resin as it takes so long to cure. I haven't tried it with other medium however

[@jessicajrollo]

Gorgeous cup! Can you tell me where you got your cup stand? It seems very sturdy, and I'd love to get a few. Thank you so much!
