How to Epoxy a Tumbler Full tutorial For Beginners

[@mechellegutierrez266]

Thank you! Your tutorial is definitely more detailed then any other. As a person who is trying to learn I find it interesting that most tutorials do not tell you how to prep the tumbler in the beginning. No its not widely known if you've never done this... like me😂 thanks!!❤

[@MileyonDisney]

Great tutorial. Your artwork is always beautiful. I went from resin shakers to making molds (which I still do and have great sales) to making tumblers, to sublimation printing, and now just sell my designs online (sales are crazy good). I think that in my crafts, I mainly just like buying the equipment. I still have 200 tumbler blanks sitting by my front door, and a house full of craft stuff. It's always there when I want to do something, so it's all good.

[@sherivegasartist]

I very much like buy equipment and art supplies myself too. I have a double garage just full of supplies.

[@willeesplace5282]

Thank you so much , I’m now not as afraid to mess it up lol, as a beginner I’ll be back to check out more of your tutorials 🙃

[@karenstrong8887]

Thank you Sheri. I needed this one before I try. My husband is an Electrical Engineer and he just gave me 4 different reasons why your turner was never going to keep working here. Amazon should refund your money because they know better and a converter plug will work on something like a phone but it will not work on a turner. It also could have hurt you or caused a fire. The insulation to the plug and over the wires is only safe for 110 volts. We have 220 to 240 volts so it would have wanted to turn slower but our power wasn’t letting it.❤

what"s the best resin to use for the tumblers

[@lynnlaverack7334]

Absolutely beautiful

[@CarolynStAmand]

I love it and can’t wait to get started

[@adeledavis495]

Sheri, Thankyou it is wonderful to find an Aussie doing youTubes. I live in WA and it very hard to find people in Aussie to share their art. In WA we are so limited. Please share what paints you use and your mixes. Would love to know more.

Beautiful tumbler

[@CerraehLaykin]

Does it matter what speed the tumblers rotate at? And what if I’m working on Glass? Do I need to prep the glass in any particular way?

[@ms.trujillo8898]

❤ Amazing 🎉❤ I am excited to make my own tumblers ❤🎉

[@lindyohare-wardingham3199]

Is it just an normal every day spray paint ?

[@jaimelongo10]

Awesome video, thanks heaps! Do you have the link for the turner in Australia? Your Aussie link in the description doesn't seem to work, thanks

[@fayewallace1643]

I put epoxy on my tumbler and there are rough spots on it after it dried. How long before I can lightly sand and add clear epoxy to make the tumbler smooth?

[@lauriechiasson4783]

They’re beautiful!

[@sherivegasartist]

thank you

[@BrandyS-ml4pr]

Hi Sheri I was wondering how I can make my final coat smooth and not keep getting fish eyes. I sanded before hand and I put my resin on but it doesn’t work for me. Is there a step Im missing. Thank Brandy

[@mykidsusethischannel]

Thank you this was the best tutorial I've ever seen, very informative I used to be intimidated to do this now I feel ready 🙂

[@tamiburling3530]

I just discovered resin art but have yet to do any projects. I've ordered some supplies and waiting for them to show up. Your tutorials are the best and help me feel confident that I, too, can do this. One question I have, are these dishwasher safe?

[@tiffanysmith5234]

Bought steel tumbler mug and have glossy photo made from Walmart how put it on so look like one from Snapfish or shutterfly

[@CerraehLaykin]

Does it matter what speed the tumblers rotate at? And what if I’m working on Glass? Do I need to prep the glass in any particular way? oh and what kind of epoxy resin are you using? Casting or doming? And Does brand matter?

[@sthomasson1128]

What was the flame burner you used and why did you use it? Your tutorials are very good!

[@judykritikos2953]

HI Sheri: 3 Questions: (1) I used the same wine tumbler as you showed, and the resin pooled on the bottom of the cup, so I have 2 lumps opposite each other on the very bottom. Can I put it on a belt sander to sand it off and make it level... clean it off, then use Iso Alc and then do my final resin coat? and (2) Can I add glitter to the bottom AFTER it's had the resin/color put on? I did the color first and then decided I wanted the bottom to have the bold glitter in the lower 1" section. Is that possible to add after the fact? And (3) the very top seems to have had the color slide down, so that part of the very top is missing any color - maybe 1/16" of an inch - so very small, but noticeable. How might I fix that??? Thank you SO MUCH.

[@susansparke6347]

how would you go about adding stickers instead of glitter?

[@tahliawalsh7568]

Is using your hands the most effective way to apply it ?

[@sarahmcleod-e9r]

Do you let the 1st level of epoxy to spin 4 to 6 hours to dry?

[@carycumming1675]

I tried my first tumbler cup but during curing on the turner the resin has pulled away from the top and bottom and made the middle too thick, any idea why?

[@annspencer3087]

If I want to add a personalised sticker ( such as a name) when wouldni do that

[@tor615]

What type paint do uou use for base coat x

[@QueenDivaStar]

I am guessing this is an "outside" project but, for tumblers, about how much space should I reckon on needing? Loved your video, thank you!

[@andreacarter4864]

How many voltage does it have to be I live in America

[@Hannahposton-k7f]

How do you cure the resin?

[@margaretowens1749]

How do you make them into sports cups like a U of K cup

Thank you so much for the videos

Hi what size are they & also what is oz of size the top of the lids

[@AllisonMason-g7l]

What’s the best way to get started. Where can I buy the equipment I’m in uk x

[@tor615]

How much is your tumbler turner I'm in uk

[@gaillockey946]

Your cup tumbler seems to have different speeds ? Please can you tell me what brand it is ? The one I just received from Amazon is way tooooooo slow - it’s like your slowest speed but has no other options to go quicker !! Please can you help xx

[@penniehardy4216]

Do you not rim them? Can you tell me why?

[@gtb200]

how long did you use the heat gun and was your resin fully cured before using it?

[@reneedwards5401]

I'm disabled and I'd live to kearn to do the tumblers I've come across some good stainless steel insulated tumblers. Is is expensive to create a cup?

[@Crafting.Virgo1]

Have you ever done a vinyl wrap for tumbler and then Apoxsee them??

[@tammydouglas1012]

Really pretty!

How to add decoration to the tumbler

So I want to do this with my hydro flask cup that I have stickers I want to do a clear epoxy coat to keep the stickers in good shape longer would this process damage the stickers?

I hope this helps me! I’m looking for a part time home job! 😎

[@SherryCicolino-uy1np]

How would you do pictures on the tumblers. Just starting to do them. Thanks

[@AutumnSM-x5h]

Get water slide paper, you can print your images cut them out, place on tumbler then resin coat them so they are permanent ❤️ I make baby feet tumblers this way

[@2Vibrant_souls]

What did the color come from?

[@janicevonubin5812]

I’d like to get started making my own tumblers. Can you give me info on start up products needs.

[@mae1813]

What tumblers do you use, I see only sublimation blanks are they the same

[@Courtney0424]

What does it cost to get started 😊

[@Margie2306]

I have been working with resin for 3 months and love it. Was thinking of trying tumblers, can you recommend where to buy the cups in bulk in Australia ? Thank you

[@sherivegasartist]

Kmart is a good place

[@Margie2306]

@@sherivegasartist another question if I may, can you do this on wine glasses?

[@sherivegasartist]

@@Margie2306 yes you can. Just tap off areas you don’t want the resin to go

[@kimdulaney7599]

My cup ended up having big dents all ! What did I do wrong?

How do you get the waves out???

[@tattedhomesteader6739]

Had to trust the process on that 2nd cup but it pulled together

[@michaelross5674]

I just ordered a kit gonna try.... Do you have to paint the cups or can you just rough them up

[@reign5426]

Very Beautiful

[@lilydennis1246]

Do I need to use a heat gun is there any other way for it to dry? X

[@tamerlietisdell733]

Heat gun is for bubbles. You can use a long lighter for the bubbles also

[@patriciajackson3883]

Hi this is my first time doing this my tumbler had a lot of lumps and uneven places when I finished it what can I do to smooth it out to look better

[@sworley1956]

sand down the cup and put a thin layer of resin

[@deannacarlock2731]

How long do I need to let the spray paint dry before applying the epoxy

[@sherivegasartist]

As long as it’s completely dry then you can use it

[@alaylaramirez3546]

I long take to dry?

[@debbielockett1433]

Why does my resin get lumpy?

[@leilanyalejandro1047]

Which spray paint did you use as a base. Not sure exactly which one you used.

[@sherivegasartist]

it's one that grips to metal surfaces.

[@laurenm2111]

Hi, love your videos!! Did you find a cup turner in Australia?

[@garnetgonzalez]

Hi Sheri, your work is beautiful. I want to start making it, but i dont know if the materials used are toxic. How can i be sure is safe to sell?

[@tiagorailes7896]

Good idea

[@auradawn7288]

I really like your artwork. What type of PPE do you use? I was told to be careful when working with epoxy resin. To use a mask, gloves (as you did), long sleeves, and eye cover glasses. Thank you! 😊

[@erinwilhiterealtor]

Hi, Aura Dawn. I'm a newbie at this. Doing my first one right now and it definitely looks amateurish. I get teased for being a safety girl: I count the steps to the emergency staircase in a hotel when I check in, but the ventilator mask seems necessary for those with breathing problems. Otherwise, I wear safety goggles over my contacts, or my glasses. Maybe they're working in a small unventilated space, but I set up my work area in the garage so there's plenty of ventilation with the garage door open and a box fan nearby. I always wear gloves.

[@dianamccleary2893]

I didn't understand the spray paint, what was that for?

[@gtb200]

for color

[@leilanyalejandro1047]

What spray paint do we use as a base? I’m not sure which one you used.

[@HeatherPrance-yl6od]

I was understanding that no resin is food safe. Please post the name of food safe resin.

[@susanpack3836]

Thankyou!

[@Smoknrhonda]

thank you.

[@crosscutofficial]

Never get resin near the mouth of the tumbler.

[@merriman420]

Once cured it's safe.

[@AuntLALA]

I made a MESS doing my first cup 😆 I just started trying to make these and set my tumbler upside down on the stand and the next morning I had a bunch of icicles dropping off. I'm currently working on getting it off lol

[@Boogie_the_cat]

​@@merriman420as long as you buy food safe epoxy it is safe after curing. I wouldn't buy (for instance) Temu no name brand resin and call it food safe. There is a reason companies selling potentially harmful chemical products wouldn't want the customer to know who produced it, and it's never for a good reason. So, for obvious safety reasons, I'd amend your statement by saying only resin marked as food safe is okay to put your mouth on. There is no logical reason to want to save money badly enough that you give yourself a risk of side effects, even if it's only 5%.

[@natashak1984]

That's why you use food safe resin

[@maikymadnesskreation8646]

There's food grade resin so totally safe to be there

[@erinrasch1118]

A lot of times my resin gives fish eyes… any tips or pointers as to how to avoid that?

[@jodeanlynn1]

Clean it better.

[@samanthaschultz6082]

Meaning it has small holes when dry? If so it's bc your A to B isn't mixed properly. I highly recommend getting a scale. After years of using resin on different projects I finally ordered a scale as resin is so expensive and I don't like making errors
