Insane Resin Technique You Won't Want To Miss

Hi Everyone. This resin technique came out even better than I could hope for. The results were insane and I am so glad I tried this. I wouldn't want you to miss out on this method. I do like pushing the boundaries of resin and making it do things that it wouldn't normally be used for.

Love this project and the back of the red fish, it would make a very cool suncatcher or ornament.

[@LisaVornhagen]

Those are really cool and look pretty easy to do. My favorite is the front of the clown fish. It's one of my favorite fish and I love the colors you used.

[@ellishansen8115]

I like them both, but if I have to pick, I'll pick the Angel fish. Nice job, Steve!

[@Twiggymack48]

Hi Steve, I like the back of the clown fish and the front of the angel fish.

[@lindaeastment4542]

HI Steve, Super fishy 😀 liked them both a very clever idea my personal favourite was the red one Lin 👍✨🐠🐡

[@margaretzuelke9761]

This is a great idea that I'm going to have to try! I've always loved sun catchers, and I think this would be a great technique for them!

[@sandramissenden]

Love the angelfish

[@deniseshapiro7145]

❤ I like them both equally. They are both unique.❤

[@cindyfinn4845]

AMAZINGGGGGGG Steve that is a cool idea my list to try is so long

[@jcouch1993]

I like the angelfish, and I think if the string was black then it would be that much better. But I like the embossing on the clownfish

[@jeanettemiller9534]

I like them both but if was forced to pick one then it would be the red fish. Great idea. X

[@sandyeubanks4972]

That was so very very cool

[@julieashton8877]

Very cool, Steve!

[@gail66onutube]

Colour you try the Talc with Black Paint and Glue to make a black edge, they rolled up plastic to make a pen type icing bag, to draw the lines, then filled each space with resin.

[@SylverZone]

I think I like the embossed version, but only because I like the gold lines better. I tried this with PVA glue and it stuck much better than using UV resin. I've also now done this with the flat wire for my sun catchers. Much better result, I had to go round twice to make sure the seal was there, but it works better than UV and is easier to do as you can just paint the glue on.

[@katherinebourke171]

What is PVA glue?

[@SylverZone]

@@katherinebourke171 the white glue used by kids and schools, for paper mache, just about anything 😊

[@katherinebourke171]

Oh ok, I thought so bit wasn't sure. Thank you so much...you're the best😊💜

[@michellegclemens2910]

How do you do it with PVA glue and what is the item it’s done on? Can I use something else instead

[@SylverZone]

Steve has used string on acetate in the video. I do the same kind of technique using 3mm flat wire (end on) for the outlines and dividers. Paint around the edge with PVA glue to form a seal. Effectively making a custom shape bezel. Then filling with resin. Works very well. The other option I’ve tried is Clear silicone. Also seals well. Hope that helps.

[@markduggan3451]

I like both but the back of Nemo is my favourite.

[@sherrigriffin8891]

Turned out nice.wind chimes would be nice

[@janethastings193]

Steve I love your acent !!

[@shabbykat273]

I liked the Nemo fish best. You could try using double sided adhesive tape applied to the transparency in order to adhere the string.

[@monicaarrechea8911]

Hi, I loved both, they are amazing as all your art, love both channels. I would probably have dipped the string in black uv resin.

[@MsTruthseeker999]

I like the clown fish the most. Oh and if you love clown fish you should look up images of Mandarin Fish, they're so gorgeous and come in a variety of exquisite colours!

[@leeannascustomdesigns]

Awesome!

[@leeannascustomdesigns]

@@SteveMcDonaldArtsandCrafts your very welcome. It's always cool to learn so many new things!

[@belindagalle97]

Thank you 😊

[@rachy11051981]

I love the nemo fish

[@ruthvictorino8536]

Love this! I love for gold /metallic embossing!!! Though having the option to showcase coordinated string is great too.

[@donnastroud9294]

Love the fish

[@carolynmozzone412]

I like the one with gold lines😀. What a great idea!!!

[@velicad2905]

Definitely the backs are better my favorite was the fish until you turn the yellow and black one around but I enjoy them both thanks Steve

[@dulceteixeira9097]

They look good 😘

[@jeneiferthomas1036]

I definitely love the clown fish. You had a great idea for both.

[@vickicole2485]

Ahhhh i love them both but I think Nemo wins 💗

[@gabrielleschmidt1435]

🎉These are really cool 😎

[@yokading]

Thank you for sharing this with us. Have tried to "like" it, but that option is not working for some reason.

[@charlenelesher1198]

Hey Steve, I think this string technic is very creative. The string can be manipulated and positioned in just about any shape. If the string on the angelfish was black, I would say to leave it. I'm sure it would look great. But I do like the embossed look on the clown fish. That would look good with black string too....but as you said, you make do with what you have on hand. Creativity just doesn't like to be kept waiting for you to run to the store! 😁🌺

[@pattibell7288]

Definitely will give it a try. I’m sure the string is much easier to form than the metal. Thanks for all your info and work.

[@hiddentidesgaming]

Side note, is there an update on your roof Steve? I remember you mentioned it in the past you were saving up for the repairs, but didn't recall hearing any updates since then.

[@christinaperson1168]

Very interesting technique! Love this and the implications for other projects ❤️! Thank you Steve 😊!!

[@tracytaplin2014]

Love it xx

[@bschupbach]

I love both techniques but I do think I favor the string one a little better❤️❤️

[@spongegirl7166]

they would be cool in a 3d painting

[@cweave02]

Love it

[@gloriarodriguez6527]

Hello Sir love ur projects . I'm from lower south Texas n I an elder widow, I'm also a chronic pain patient, crafting is my passion. But I need to know,why does ur resin look a little thick? Do you let it sit for a certain amount of time?

[@mandicoleman7433]

I luv them both! I would totally mess this up if I tried it. I've got my quilling paper ready to do some fun pictures in frames but haven't found anything simple that I want to try yet. I may try drawing something on the acetate n using the uv then transfer to a picture frame to finish 🤔

[@dollybrown1993]

Wow 😳😳 love the clown fish 🐠🐠🐠🐟🐟🐟!! The gold really sets it off for me. Don't see me doing this for a while, because I have orders all the way to the middle of May!!! Then I think 🤔🤔 I may take about a 2 week break to regroup and replace all the supplies.... MAYBE!!!! stay safe and stay crafty 👍👍🔔🔔🔔🛎️🦋🦋

[@dollybrown1993]

@@SteveMcDonaldArtsandCrafts thank you 💕💕 . I'm not sure if it's a good thing or not.... Having to get in 2 pours a day just to try to keep up. Starting at 6a.m. and doing a full pour of trays and additions... Then, another one starting at about 4:30p.m. Then do it all over again the next day!!! Everyone decided to get stuff for mothers day. Still thinking about a good break after.... 🛎️🔔🦋🦋😍😍😂😂

[@kimking2531]

The embossed one

[@carlycharlesworth1497]

I've never seen this done before. They came out really nicely. What do you do with all the things you make on the channel Steve? I never know what to do with the stuff I make. Family and friends are all 'home made gifted' out if you know what I mean! But I couldn't sell the things I make because they aren't that good. I think the clown fish was my favourite out of your two fish.

[@katherinebourke171]

I'm in the same boat as you Carly LOL

[@dalhousiekid]

Same…

[@hazeldavies6167]

Same

[@tammielewis9595]

The other fish is a butterfly fish, not an Angelfish. Heniochus butterfly fish to be exact. Being one who keeps saltwater fish I think these are absolutely beautiful!

[@kathyjones274]

Using wire in resin is something I really would like to know Steve.

[@toughtimes6596]

You can always dye the twine lol. I also tried this with rubber bands, wire, dental floss and bracelet string (kind that stretches). I made some awesome suncatchers. I also found a UV retarder to add to resin to slow the fading in the sun but haven't had them long enough to know if it's working yet. It didn't affect cure time on the uv resin either btw.

[@annmcdaniel1092]

Clown is best!😍

[@bloodycreekdesigns1419]

Savannah wants these fish hahaha 😆

[@lauramature7388]

Turn out cute

[@meaghanb9118]

Definitely dome both sides and make them a mobile!

[@lolameese]

When embossing with a heat gun doesn't the plastic curl up? I like the front better

[@TinaLouise528]

I like the front of clown fish

[@bloodycreekdesigns1419]

So cute

[@bloodycreekdesigns1419]

Savannah loves nemo ha

[@jeaniebee3657]

would a glue gun work like the string?

[@jbartsy1]

This looks tedious I hope it's amazing when it's done!

[@ZippedUpKitz]

Clown fish!

[@bobbibob3608]

kinda sucks actually.
