Homemade Jewelry Tips and Tricks?

[@MrsLisaCrow]

I'm a grower of stuff and I can tell you that putting mirrors only reflects the light from a single point, like a death ray. It doesn't scatter it. This is why we paint the walls white instead of lining them with mirrors.

[@wipjenni]

My UV light came with a mirrored 'base plate' and it seems to inhibit the cure. Placing my molds on a gloss-glazed white ceramic tile works really well.

Steve, I love the way you are always prepared and get right to the procedure but are unfailingly friendly too. These turned out really lovely and time effective.

[@Leena79]

The ones with the bezels look like stained glass. They are really pretty. The free-form method looks fun, too.

Always enjoy all your videos

When using the tape, I always fold a corner over so that it doesn’t stick to your fingers. It was a big game changer for me, also stops your gloves sticking to it

[@carlycharlesworth1497]

@vikkiharris3158 oh that's a great idea, thanks for sharing it. Have a great weekend!

[@OnlyJalenPhd]

This looks really fun!

[@cheryllewis7017]

So glad to see you back!!!❤

[@beaswingle9065]

I love them Steve very Beautiful ❤

[@barbseed4434]

❤ can't wait to get these colored resins. Beautiful, fun pieces.

[@teresa6775]

Good grief....took me 5 minutes to figure out you were talking about DAMMING TAPE, not DAMNING TAPE. But I often yell when trying to work with tape...DAMN TAPE !!! Love the idea of colored resin...THANKS !!!

[@judieloux3610]

Thanks for showing the colored uv resin. They turned out great! Hope you are feeling better!

[@patriciahayes1237]

Love them❤❤

[@pookysgirl7535]

One tape trick I learned is to get two strips of packing tape (I cut one strip lengthwise) ready, unroll a little bit of the UV resin tape over your mat, tape down one end, unroll and cut the rest, and tape that end down. That way, the tape stays in place, you're not brushing the sticky part of the tape (too much) with your gloves, and it stays flush with the mat.

Beautiful ❤❤❤

[@milagrosmendez77]

Beautiful!!!

[@lisathrasher9051]

There is also UV resin with glitter in them too.

[@jackiepena1541]

I love all of it I would have never thought about the mirror part excellent idea. Hope your move went well & all settled 😊

[@maxineboot7805]

Beautiful loving them ❤. You make me laugh Steve loving the earrings you have on 😂😂xx

[@miniscenesgb]

Ah the mirror trick. Works well doesn't it :) That tape looks good

[@carlycharlesworth1497]

Oh I do like those pendants you made! Those resins are such bright and bold colours and putting them in pendants like that is a brilliant way to use them. That tip of using a mirror was a good one. I think those earrings suited you! God bless, have a great weekend!

[@offairhead]

The two larger bezels look like stained glass, very nice.

[@twoflower7621]

wow Steve! i went to buy those bezels and you got them all sold out! lol

[@LisaVornhagen]

Those look so great! I really love the moon and the circle! They look like stained glass! That tape is a great size, too. I've seen someone fold over the ends so you have somewhere not sticky to hold to move them around. Can't remember who that was, though. Hope you're having a great day!

[@doreenvillanueva2365]

I think he suggested one the dog mold he did in your other video on the plastic you can make that into a picture frame right in the middle suggestion to let all your viewers know that they can zoom in real close what you’re doing as much as they want

[@marthaalvarez214]

Great video! Beautiful work!

[@denniscoddington1701]

I just received the same colored resin today! Anxious to try it on some things I engraved with my laser. Thanks for the tips Steve.

[@mandicoleman7433]

This look fantastic! 😍 ❤

[@margaretmathis4775]

I want to make Freeform snowflakes.

[@maiaallman4635]

So pretty!

[@karonjohnson5099]

Hi Steve , love all your tips and your experiments. Can you tell me when the coloured uv resin is available in the UK please x

[@GeorgeWolfe-ri2ck]

I am looking for your video that you showed the Steve McDonald blue mat.

[@artistpw]

À crumpled piece of aluminum foil works great. Try to grow moringa because it is a real light hog!

[@bluebear1218]

Hi Steve, could you share the link to the wipes you use please - Think you mentioned them in the video and thought the link was in the 'more section''. Thank you for your fab video's too xx

[@anonymousanonymous8518]

[@57janp]

Steve, has J. Diction given you any idea how long we’re going to have to wait in UK for the coloured resins?

[@LisaBale62]

🥰

[@JohnSCrank]

I bought a set of the J Dickson UV resin and was somewhat disappointed because the colors are considerably weaker that what show.

[@TheRavenBlack1-cw1sr]

[@mgshubin]

With the tape, if you turn over one of the corners, you can use that to prevent your finger from getting stuck. 🙂
