Eco Resin Tips & Tricks That Will Change The Way You Craft

[@angiekepford6]

Take care of your mental health❤ Taking care of others can be very hard on the caregiver. We love your videos however we can be patient and wait for you to heal yourself.

[@Do-U-Know-me00]

Those were so well done. Hey, take care of yourself, and don't fret about YT. It isn't that important in the grand scheme of things..YOU are. Take it easy, and know you are cared about.

[@michelleellecreations2538]

One of the things I absolutely love about this channel is the fact that you are just as messy as I am when I create 🤭❤️

[@miniscenesgb]

Take care Steve - health and family are way more important than us viewers :)

[@Vsv1224]

Thank you, Steve, for all you do. I know dealing with family obligations and mental health issues is tough. You take care of yourself first!❤❤❤

[@jenniferkelley3777]

That sealer works very well! The colors are beautiful! After caring for a sick mom for a very long time, i definitely was burnt out in every way. Took months to get back to my normal. Be patient with yourself. Take care🥰

[@msanne40]

I TOTALLY understand the mental burnout that comes from caring for others. You and a few others on KZbin are my therapy. I watch what you'll create and it frees my mind of the mental stress. Find your "happy place" Steve. Some of us NEED you to keep us sane.

[@ZippedUpKitz]

KZbin will be here when you are ready to be here doing what you do best :) just take care of yourself and your loved ones! You and they come first!

[@darylpepper2256]

Have missed you. Had a feeling you were having something going on in your life. You mean so much to me with each video you share and are a highlight of my life. Thank you for the amazing tips in this video. ❤️

[@SteveMcDonaldArtsandCrafts]

Thank you so much!

[@eilish27]

Everyone should join the membership! It has been an invaluable source of information and support to me as well as everyone else in there. Thank you so much for another great video Steve. ❤

[@SylverZone]

100% agree!

[@kimclayton5814]

Take care of you! Love the fire lotus and the fish! So beautiful! We will always be here!

[@LisaVornhagen]

All of those are just fantastic! I love the marbling on the flower and the water! The fish look really amazing, too. I love them! Please take care of yourself. I know how hard that can be sometimes. We'll be here. 💜

[@kathrynseaman6482]

Take care of yourself, an empty vessel has nothing left to give. We sometimes need to slow down and breath to renew ourselves. Great tips for better results!

[@fairyspunfibers9098]

Absolutely wonderful video, Steve...thank you! These are just gorgeous! 😍💕😊 Yes, taking care of others is a total drain. It exhausts the body, mind, and spirit. As someone else remarked: an empty vessel has nothing left to give. So, take care of yourself, too! 😊👍

[@sunbeatrice2052]

You make beautiful pieces. Life is hard and take care of yourself. You always come first.

[@Stinkerbelle62]

As a family caretaker myself, I completely get your need to recharge. God bless you

[@ARTBYSPARKLE]

I love this and the colors are wonderful-the fish are stunning with the paint addition.

[@daricezdrazil7399]

Please take care of your health as that is the most important! Thank you for being you! I thought I was the only one who wore their work lol. That project is just beautiful! You also gave me a cool idea I want to try now! If my idea works I'll tag you in a video I will have to create! Keep smiling! You are awesome!

[@roygarcia4176]

Your mental health is way more important than anything else!!! Just so you know, you’ve been a great help with my mental health… I have anxiety, and with the recent hurricane and the one that is slated to hit us on Wednesday, I need all the distractions I can get!!! So thank you!! My husband thanks you also…😂

[@judyeuller7602]

Very helpful video, Steve. Thanks. Please take care of yourself. Your health is of paramount importance. 🤗

[@suzettelombard]

What beautiful projects! I love the tealight holder, and the fish are sooo cute! ❤ Never mind your viewers and YT, even if you don't post regularly we shall be here and waiting when you come back. Your well-being is more important! Take a break or take it easy and rest sooner rather than later. I love your content and hang onto every word you say. Take care of yourself like you take care of others, and you'll soon be better! ❤❤❤❤❤

[@carolekrischel7523]

Years ago I enjoyed watching the Carol Duvall Show. Entertaining, calming and fun just like you. Thank you. Love to you and yours.

[@rosemariereed2560]

Steve, I just want you to know that I absolutely love all of your videos and I’m always excited when a new one comes out. I have my own mental health issues and I know what a struggle it is and I really appreciate that you continuing to put out one week, your videos help me with my mental health issues. Thank you for being you.

[@genajones2823]

Love the flower and fish. Hope you feel better soon. Being a caregiver is a tough job. One day at a time.

[@maxineboot7805]

Hi Steve glad to see you on even once a week is better than none matey. You and your family is more important and comes first ❤. Anyway loving the fish especially you make wonderful crafts xxx 6:03

[@vegasmainiac7745]

This is a very cool product! I've heard of it but didn't think I needed another medium to take up space in my brain. It looks like fun! Thanks for the inspiration ❤

[@Sandi-om2tm]

Very informative. Thank you. Take care of YOU!❤

[@composing-chaos]

I’m right with you. Taking care of mom, forced retirement, finance issues, American politics, it’s been really hard to be motivated. I’m exhausted. I like watching your ideas and process.

[@tigerleearts1290]

You should never apologize for take care of yourself and your family. We would rather have you healthy and happy then you getting burned out and not being able to enjoy your crafts. You are in our prayers.

[@roku3216]

Your lotus flower is so bright and cheerful colored, nice effect.

[@juliarideout2844]

Look after yourself and don't worry about the video we will still be here when you're feeling better love you're video ❤😊

[@terrym1899]

Good information about resincrete. I love the fishes. Also I hope you feel better soon. It takes a tole on those of us who are taking care of others. Hugs

[@G.G.8GG]

Scrumptious colors!

[@Momnpop98]

Great top with the kitchen paper.

[@heidih.2465]

Love you, Steve!

[@dcruicks1]

Take care of you and your family. We will be here waiting for you. ❤

[@fraweggy]

I love this! Thank you Steve!

[@adrianagale1375]

Get well soon! Every super creative person is a bit mental. I am.❤

[@ajnormandgroome]

I appreciate your instructional videos

[@donnayount2094]

Beautiful just beautiful

[@storminight]

I’ve found wetting the molds with water helps stop the bubbles. I guess because it’s water based. 🤷‍♀️ Thanks for the video, take care of yourself first! Always! ❤

[@Marilyn-y9k]

❤ Love the gold fish, they look like they will swim away. The marbled tea lite holder was quite pretty but I'd use different colors for mine. Thanks for all the info and fun. M in USA

[@patriciaburt9365]

I love the way u painted the fish so beautiful

[@brendakatko8286]

I hope you feel better soon 🙏❤️

[@mandicoleman7433]

Luv these Steve! A new kitten luvs the fish lol

[@gailbrown8710]

Very pretty ❤

[@klairbaranek]

What I would recommend you do before you pour the resin Crete is have some mold release spray.

[@creativelygrowingcreativity]

❤ take care

[@franlewis8906]

Hello Steve! xx 🎉

[@LisaBale62]

You do you!!!!!

[@CyndiBall]

Prayers for you

[@CoffeeCakeCrumble]

Never think you're ever letting us down! We want YOU to take care of YOU😊 I love resincrete, an amazing material for just about everything. I do have a question about measuring. With one of my shipments there was an insert that tabled the mixing ratios as follows: 100g powder 30 ML water 200g powder 60 ML water 300g powder 90 ML water 400 g powder 120ML water 500g powder 150ML water I see you measure BOTH powder and water in grams as a measurement of mass and not weight. Which is more accurate......all in grams or split grams and ML?

[@donnastroud9294]

Very nice

[@monopoli62]

Could you put them in a warm oven to dry also?? Thanks for all you do!!😊😊

[@lindalatoza8334]

Thank you

[@cindybrienze8723]

These came out great, I like using resin Crete too. Take care of yourself first

[@bonny9680]

Hey Steve, quick question, you mentioned at the beginning of the video that you would show how to stick any pieces that break off during demoulding? I've just made a snail and broken off his eyes 😞

[@immawoop7261]

Hi Steve, I've never seen this product before and it's got me very curious. How well does it weather? Is it any good for small garden ornaments? Also the coating you put on it. Does it have to be applied via sponge or could you get a large vat and dip your pieces? Or perhaps does the coating atomize, I.e could it be sprayed?

[@ahuss80]

Take care of you! Which do you like better…epoxy resin or resin crete? Seems like resin crete has more versatility .

[@lindseyblackhurst5946]

I have sealer from Jesmonite, do you think I could use that until I get my hands on the jdiction one?

[@SteveMcDonaldArtsandCrafts]

I would give it a try

[@manqustitch]

where did you get your table cover? is it rubber?

[@SteveMcDonaldArtsandCrafts]

The silicone mat comes in my kit

[@ARTBYSPARKLE]

Steve- once the sealer dries, can you put food on it?

[@kesami123]

Steve how does Resincrete do in the curing machine you have?

[@CyndiBall]

Can you use any kind of ink? Or just the resincrete colors?

[@DDIVS1]

Can we use modpodge to seal it

[@barbpierce4399]

Can i use the same molds for resin and resin creat

[@bhronnyhill9354]

@@barbpierce4399 yes, but it’s a good idea to clean them in between.

[@ginalombardi2507]

Ok, I wanted to be specific in sending you a coffee because every month I see the same names on the top of each column. I wanted to see what would happen when I sent a coffee and not just money via thanks.

[@pwincessangelmouse]

steve im sorry to bother you but ive recently been crafting with resincrete but i cant seem to get it to go into the smaller bits of the mold, i have a strawberry trinket dish but i cant seem to get it to go into the leaves of the dish, is there anything i can do to help it go into them?

[@traceys2216]

steve, I hope you do not mind me asking but you never wore gloves is it with resincrete you don't need to.

[@craftydemon529]

Don't worry about not doing videos as frequently, you should take care of the things going on in your life before worrying about making videos. Also, mental health is no joke, and same for burnout. (In fact, I feel like having mental health issues can worsen burnout) I think I've had burnout last like a year before, and it's hard to push yourself to be creative during burnout. And I feel like I speak for most everyone when I say, if you feel like you need to step away from making videos all together to recover, please do. We want what's best for you.

[@dawnpearson4907]

Steve it is very stressful to care for others. Take time for you.

[@rhondagover9237]

Take care of yourself. Taking care of family is very stressful and hard on mental health. We don't want to add more stress to your life.❤

[@tracydonaldson1290]

Love your videos Steve but love you more… fit your oxygen mask first lovely xxx

[@libbyannbest1723]

You can just use tacky glue.
