DIY How to MARBLE a GLITTER TUMBLER ACRYLIC SKIN

[@anna7b]

I’ve done a lot of paint pours with silicone and resin epoxy. If you gently wipe the paint pour down with warm water a few times you shouldn’t need to coat it with the clear coat, you can also add a tad drop of dawn. I also use floetrol in all the paints, not just one. Water can loosen the binders in acrylic paint so I never use it. It (the pouring medium) also makes all the paints more flexible and less likely to break. I’ve pulled large sheets of thin poured paint from the plastic trash bags I use, without breaking. 😀 I hope that helps.

[@hillcityvapors2151]

Agreed. That's what I do and it works great!

[@angiemaynard187]

what is pouring medium

[@anna7b]

Angie Maynard there are several out there, but I prefer floetrol which I buy in gallons from Lowe’s (it is a lot cheaper). If you look up paint pouring medium I’m sure you’ll find other alternatives if floetrol is not available for you. The way I would describe it is that it is chemically similar to acrylic paint so that when mixed with the paint it does not break it down (does not make it brittle) and the paint retains it’s elasticity and the vibrancy of the colors. I’ve also mixed floetrol with my acrylics when brush painting, and that can also produce some cool results.

Anna Maria if you use epoxy resin does it have to be spinning all night or for a long period of time???

Wow that’s amazing! I love purple. I can’t believe 6 people didn’t like this video. Thank you for explaining every step!

[@charlottelovell8184]

Absolutely gorgeous. Great tutorial video. I have been searching for videos on what to do with my skins besides jewelry. I found you. YAY! Thank you Summer. Subscribed.

I think I will be binge watching. I will have popcorn later.!! And I'm already having many many many ideas! I don't even care if it's been done already! Lol!!! This is alllll NEW to my world!!

[@donnabusic9785]

Cool! Just a bit of paint pour advice. Less is more with silicone. You don't even have to put it in all your colors if you are doing a dirty cup. The longer you let the paint dry the better off you are. 2 weeks is great. That's why your stock pile idea is great. Finally use baby wipes or facial wipes to clean away oils before putting on cup. Just some thoughts from someone who has delt with quite a few silicone holidays. Love your tutorials😁

omg!!! i totally love this - i want a sleeve tattooed of skull candy but this right here is the bomb diggittyyyyyy

[@Kimscrap]

Small tip, when you pull the paint from the sheet pull the sheet and not the paint. Then it doesnt rip as easily.

[@ginanichols8938]

This is absolutely GORGEOUS!!!! I am so thankful I found your channel!! I can't seem to say THANK YOU enough for sharing your talent.

Oh my gosh Summer! That’s one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen!!! Thank you so much for sharing. You’re such an amazing teacher ❤️ and so freakin talented!!! I’m beyond grateful to have found you, your videos and the group!

[@sunnybunny222]

Ok,....I am not a fan of day of the dead. But this is GORGEOUS!!! The technique you used is amazing..and your decal is perfect!! I just kept telling my husband I want to make one of these!! Your works is fabulous!! Thanks for the tutorials. I love when you do the details..LOVE it... Donna

[@andreawellman4461]

Just food for thought, saying you are not a fan of Day of the dead sounds insensitive, and could be hurtful in some people. And I really am saying this simply because I imagine you mean all of the sugar skull stuff isnt your style, (it isn't particularly mine either,) not that you dislike a culture's honored holiday... But again, this is meant as a gentle reminder. Not a hand slap.

[@heather0320]

Omg!!! I’m in LOVE with this tumbler

[@zairacalvo]

This one is pretty cool! I have seen this method on other surfaces but applying it to a tumbler is amazing! You did a very good job. Thanks for sharing this and all your creativity with the world.

OMG!!! You are SOOOOOOOO talented and such a GREAT teacher!!! Thank you so much!!! 💕 💕 💕

[@juneribbons5196]

You can store these in a notebook too Thank you so much. I had asked some of the pourartists to just make a skin like you've done here. There was only one who responded positively to my inquiry, but she was just using the drips from her pours. Yours is the first one I've seen applied to something. Its so pretty with the face added

[@angelsandfaes]

very pretty. You might want to try using the plastic chopping mats from dollar tree. I use them under my epoxy and I am pretty sure I poured an acrylic skin some time back. pour on the shiny side of course.

[@mizzvivian3413]

OMG I LOVE THE SKULL

Love the tumbler. I've seen these acrylic skins cut in the shape of a finger nail and applied like polish. Myriams Nature's channel has a videl. Great job!

[@lorit.9978]

On our canvas pours we wash the canvas lightly with dawn dish soap, and/or add a little silicone to the resin/epoxy so it doesn’t fish eye. It might work with a cup as well. Beautiful cup!

[@robinhanff4248]

[@kimasp7482]

You can also use Elmers glue mixed with a little bit of water as pouring medium...it's MUCH cheaper and just as effective. Also do your pour on parchment paper.

[@katiejones9106]

A tip I thought of when applying the gorgeous decal: if you use transfer tape (clear contact paper - very inexpensive from any dollar store) you can do all pieces at the same time as well as see where the decal will lay before pressing it down.

[@LittleLeeandRose]

you don't want to use transfer tape with printable vinyl as it will remove some of the image

[@tanjacharles7131]

This is my favorite cup you have done !!!

[@jillianjoy3916]

Before you peeled it up it looked like a face. Eyes and mouth. Looked hauntingly beautiful

The dark blue were the eyes.
