[@jiteshbuch3396]

Wow, beautiful. Very nicely explained

[@stephaniejayne5185]

I love the colours in the donuts. I can see how they will get plenty of positive comments from people who will admire this eye catching fashion accessory. Thanks for show us how to do this...great result.

[@chrisharrison5974]

What an inspiring technique....love it xx

[@Debbio2222]

Caren you are so smart and creative.

[@sabrinabradley5010]

Thank you for sharing. Good information regarding the finish of your artwork, dull or shiny depending on your mold. Very nice pieces.

[@carengoodrich]

You are welcome!!

[@holbrookmusic3045]

Hi Caren, when I worked for Ford making mock-up logos and various dash components, we used denatured alcohol to get rid of resin bubbles. Some of our molds were rubber and plastic so that was the best option. You might give it a try and see how you like it. It's a safe alternative to flame if you're using molds that can melt.

[@leaderstakethereins]

Hi, so how would you use it in this application? Would you just add it to the resin before adding color? thanks

[@bluepandaman]

Awesome video!

[@lindajohnston759]

This triggered so many ideas for other uses! Thanks!

[@DarkFire1536]

Wow! Those are so cute!! Great video

[@ruthiek5340]

I don't know why, since I am a fellow resin artist, but I've never actually watched anyone do this technique until now. I knew about it, I just never took the time to watch how it's done. It's fascinating and I can't wait to try it out now! :)

[@carengoodrich]

thanks, Ruthie, it's a fun thing to do!

[@ariesgal88t79]

New follower...and wow..you are such a talented lady! Thank you for the demonstration and teaching, I will bite the bullet and try this..this evening finally! Blessings xx

They are so Fab! I am going to order through your link and make some :-) Cant wait to see this mystery product reveal....

[@Centannicocktails]

Super cool!! Now that it has been over a year, is there any other colore to use except for white? thanks!

[@carengoodrich]

Victoria no! It has to be Pinata white! Lol Even in 2019!

[@jillroy2161]

Awesome. Thanks so much for showing us!

[@7northgate7]

I have been making these, a lot of trial and error, you make it look easy!

[@carengoodrich]

msmcquade what’s the errors you’ve been having?

[@7northgate7]

It can't be snow cap for the white it has to be pinata white and some of the ranger inks don't drop for me, most actually. I can only get the petri effect with Pinata regardless of the type of resin I use.

[@mamaluigi8711]

So gorgeous! Thank u

[@MaxSMoke777]

I have been messing with resin for the last two weeks, and I love those Pinata paints. I've been pushing white through other colors for awhile. It works with the gold Pinata too! Never thought to try layering it though, cool idea! Also, you can dome the backside, protect the white on the back.

[@RosianePacheco]

OMG it is sooo beatiful!

[@fabricartUK]

Love this. Could you set a washer in the resin and then use these bad boys as pattern weights?

[@carengoodrich]

Helly Jenkins sure! You might want to pour a partial layer first, let it cure then put the washer in, and pour the rest.

[@92blckt]

God bless you for sharing your knowledge! beautiful art

[@DebraRobertslivinghi57]

These are beautiful, I am new to the alcohol ink, I see there are some that are "exciter packs" what is the difference in the that say that & that don't say exciter? Please

[@carengoodrich]

Debra Wilkes It’s just the way they group them together to sell. No difference in actual product.

I don’t usually make jewelry but I really like these. I ordered the mold from Amazon under your name.

Hello! I have just started using resin, I have a question for you. The project I worked on tonight when I used the paint, it didn’t drop to the bottom. How do I accomplish this?

How many times rounds of color/white do you recommend?

Pretty❤️👍🏻

[@MimiK95]

Can i make it with uv resin?

[@artistrobfuller]

can't wait for the news! Hope us UK pourers benefit too!

[@allabouteveshop]

Hi Caren my white pooled at the bottom of the donut, did I use too much white and not enough colour? Thank you.

[@carengoodrich]

allabouteveshop possibly. You have to experiment and even then it’s not foolproof. Also a thinner resin brand might cause the ink to drop too much. Art Resin brand worked pretty well for me.

[@allabouteveshop]

@@carengoodrich Thank you.

[@nancieblackburn3176]

I love these! Thank you for sharing!

[@CraftescapeTX]

Is the torch just to get rid of air bubbles? If so, all you have to do is be careful when mixing your resin and don't stir too aggressively (I've seen other videos on YT where aggressive stirring is for some odd reason recommended?). I've worked with resin for over 20 years and have never had issues with air bubbles. Even when one or two do show up, a little light tapping from under the table gets rid of them easily.

[@carengoodrich]

Craft Escape yes the torch is for air bubbles. Seems like if you’ve been using resin for 20 years you might be at least familiar with why people use a torch?

[@CraftescapeTX]

@@carengoodrich No, I only just started coming across it on YT videos in the last few months. I learned with jewelry resin from Rio Grande (I took a course from them way back when I first started) and they taught gentle "folding" instead of the vigorous stirring that I've seen lately, and light tapping from underneath or even on the sides of the table. Torching was never even once mentioned. That was my one and only class, and I've just used that technique ever since. I've also never had any air bubbles appear in my finished work, so I never had to go looking for other techniques. What I first learned works just fine for me.

[@ThReAdTeDsOnline]

Would the mixative snowcap work for white too? I can only find the Ranger ink.

[@carengoodrich]

ThReAdTeDs On-line I don’t think snow cap mixative works for this technique. I have the white alcohol ink on my Amazon shopping list. It can be hard to find. Http://www.amazon.com/shop/carengoodrich

[@illuminatedrose]

Lovely! Thanks Caren.

[@crissyblevins335]

I'm addicted!! Caren, how does your bottoms come out flat and with no lip?

[@carengoodrich]

Crissy Blevins they don’t, you have to sand a little.

[@crissyblevins335]

After you sand mine always look chalky. How do I make them stay shiny?

[@carengoodrich]

Crissy Blevins the only thing you can do is “repaint” the sanded area with a fresh coat of resin.

[@robbiewood391]

Love,love these. Thanks so much for sharing this. I am so excited to order the tray and try this. I’ve not done resin before but I do have some clearcast. :)

[@twrecks116]

that is Awesome!! Really Nice! Thanks for Sharing!!

[@elaineturpin1064]

Hi Caren great video. Do you ever find that the alcohol inks fade? I have seen several people say that they do and was wondering whether you have ever had any problems. Thanks

[@carengoodrich]

Hi Elaine, I haven’t had any fading but yes it seems to be a fact that alcohol inks (like many other types of inks) are not as lightfast as acrylics, etc. Over time I guess you have to assume some fading. But I do have some AI paintings that are over a year old and they still look great. Do not let it deter you from having fun with AI.

[@denisemanning4673]

Wow! This is wonderful. I shall be trying this. I have subscribed.🎨💕🇬🇧

[@georgiecollins2172]

Love the pendants. Can this be done with nail polish or spray inks instead of alcohol inks?

[@carengoodrich]

I don't know of anyone who has had any success with anything besides alcohol inks, but you might experiment and try it out.

[@ahmedbaset2705]

Well done! accept my respect and my appreciation

[@carlaszczuka5653]

I love this video, went and ordered everything from your page. Did my first batch - nicely surprised. Now I was not as neat as you and have droplets of white paint on the surface and on the edges of the cup. How do you clean your mold. Thank you.

[@carengoodrich]

Carla Szczuka I haven’t had any paint residue on my molds so I don’t know what to tell you to use for cleaning.

[@tamidecat]

Awesome statement pieces. How well does this mold hold up to the resin?

[@carengoodrich]

tamidecat it’s stronger and thicker than many silicone molds. So far it holds up well.

[@tamidecat]

Thank you so much for replying so quickly😁. Have a great day.

[@MintaBoggs]

Hi, can you use the Tim Holtz alcohol ink with the white of the pinata brand?

[@wendylamb8645]

Can you use any alcohol inks for this? Can you use any white?

[@carengoodrich]

Wendy Lamb any alcohol ink should work but you have to use the same white that I used in the video.

[@renaykilgore3434]

Hi Caren! These are awesome. I tried doing this and the white sank to the bottom past the colors :( any suggestions?

[@carengoodrich]

Renay Kilgore that happens a lot, I don’t have a solution besides practicing with your ratios of color to white.

[@coyotematt719]

Really awesome! Thanks, I'm going to try this. I've learned a lot watching you the past few days, I dig the paint pours you do as well.

[@deborahfreese8255]

It drys in a day or so I’ve just been wetsanding the back to clean it up mine don’t look as good as yours I’m going to try a different ink I have the same ones you have been using so I’ll go for it I’d order from your Amazon store can’t wait to get the mold how fun.

[@lisacapers2181]

Wow, l love colors, have made any keychain with these. If so pls list the video. Thanks 😊 Lisa

[@ericagelle7007]

To use the resin you have to mix equal parts of resin with the hardener? Can you use any clear epoxy?

[@carengoodrich]

Erica Gelle yes it is a 50/50 mix. I have another video about mixing resin if you have never done it, check out my resin playlist. I have found the Art Resin brand works really well with this technique. Your results may vary with different brands.

[@mariakeenan4908]

When I added white, after they cured for 24hrs the resin had set but the white was outside of the resin and was still wet/tacky. The other colours were fine.

[@mithrasoltani]

Hi thanks. What was the technique?
