[@CindyMc007]

So beautiful! I love your art, as usual. I've dusted interference mica in my molds. It gives the resin a very ethereal appearance. I have the same feather mold. You have to treat it gently when cleaning. I plan to make a ton of the smaller feathers & dangle them from a chain bracelet. I'm glad you are well. I'm taking precautions & have managed to stay healthy. I'm in the southeastern US. Thank you for sharing your techniques. Watching & creating helps me stay sane. Stay safe!❤

Heyy Cindy .. thank you si much x glad you're safe .. crazy times ! It's definitely helping keep my mind off of everything .. the feathers are stunning arent they .. I just wish they were bigger !

[@mizzuzie3338]

Those turned out amazing! I haven't tried mica so much as I was afraid the powder wouldn't come out of the mould after but it stuck well with the resin. I'm ok by the way. We have quite a few restrictions here in Sweden against going out frivolously, sadly not everybody follow them. Most under 25 and some over 70 yrs olds seem to regard it as silly to stay home. I have to work as I drive trains for public transport.

Heyyyy lovely, UV resin would be suitable for small intricate pieces, I am afraid I do not get on very well with UV resin so I cannot advise.

Any suggestions on how to clean off the excess mica dusts where it’s not wanted ? For example I used a stencil on a coaster mold but got mica dust around the pattern where I didn’t want it.

I’m not sure what to do after going though all the trouble of stenciling 6 coaster molds ☹️
