Is It Possible to Make a Beautiful Resin Trinket Pot for Candles?

[@kristisparkman9007]

I have any idea for a video. You could run an experiment on using mica powders in alcohol. If your put them in small amounts of alcohol you can paint them on molds for fine details. They don't blow around or spread like it does when applied dry

[@lindaeastment4542]

HI Steve, Lovely little trinket pot I for one loved the colours u used 👍 thanks for sharing Lin, ✨

[@bubblemum]

You got a real laugh out loud from me when you said "And I reply "well then don't use that color"" LOL! The piece turned out beautifully as well. I admit to often being distressed at using a lot of resin in the lids when I would prefer for them to be hollowed out like the bases are. I am still working on methods to add a spacer to the tops so that less resin is used.

[@staceys9323]

I did a squidy widgy the other day and I could hear you saying it my head. It made me smile! Thanks for your great videos 😀

[@lynnesinclair35]

Good evening, hope you are well. Lovely to catch a video this early. Just chilling as waiting for resin to cure on an egg mould I got today. I’m the muckiest pup ever when crafting. Anything can be cleaned up after.

[@kerrividler6571]

I’m with you Steve, I do resin craft and have had a benign essential tremor since I was 14. Things sometimes don’t work out or are, like you say, messy but it doesn’t stop me, probably the opposite, drives me to do more rather than get too upset and stop trying

[@glorygloryholeallelujah]

AHHHHHH!!! I just got this mold, I’m so excited to see how beautiful it actually is, when made by a real person!❤️

[@glorygloryholeallelujah]

@@SteveMcDonaldArtsandCrafts No, no-thank YOU for always showing us new lovely things!😁 I was going to try and make the lid hollow (because of how much resin it takes)…but after seeing this, I really like how sturdy that heavy lid makes it! So I guess the only sensible solution is to make BOTH versions. 😜💖👍 Thank you again, for another delightful video!

[@ritabaker9502]

I really like the way this box came out. Very nice!!!

[@meowgicaltoast1082]

How beautiful! Kinda reminds me of little trinket boxes my grandma had, her's were Carnival Glass.

[@sampitonyak5943]

Wow so that's how it's done wow!!! It is so awesome I'm going to try it in the morning you make it look so easy Thank You always watching

[@vonnie4781]

This little jar turned out so cute! Thank you so much!!

[@Navybrat64]

BTW I get a kick out of how animated you're when you say ring that notification bell....lol ...I love your channel so much. ❤❤

[@hopeisevilloveisnot]

I swear.... it makes me do a lil side to side dance in my chair.... :D

[@marylouruss1087]

Beautiful as a candle holder..great job..Take care and have a great week.

[@karid1434]

For just grabbing colors and not really thinking about it they are absolutely stunning together. I would of never thought to use them together but I definitely will now.

[@jetleg60]

You are so clever. I love this candle holder. I have this mold and I am going to make one for myself. Thank you, Jeanette

[@tracyharper2121]

That’s pretty funky, Steve! Love it xx

[@AlpineArts]

Wow, that’s fantastic!! I think it would look really pretty if you add a crystal cabinet knob on the lid as sort of a handle. Super cool, thanks for the video!!

[@reisaduaburna1884]

I do a lot of painting the mica and I wasn't very happy with it because I was doing it with a normal paint brush. I seen your videos and got the micro brush. Now my stuff is much better. Thank you for that tip.

[@shaunacorrigan9372]

Ok, I have to go buy this mold RIGHT NOW. It's so pretty! And a great size, too! It's not easy finding these pot or dish molds that don't end up being teeny tiny, so I really appreciate that you link what you use as much as possible. Thank you!🤗

[@brian09989]

Loved this Steve, I was surprised at how big the trinket box was to be honest. Makes me giggle every time you say squidgy widgy and tappy wappy lol, and sing about the ,Notification Bell! Cheers me up watching you! Thanks for that😁😍.

[@dollybrown1993]

Awesome look for the lights!! I WOULD never have put burnt orange/ any orange with purple and pink!!!! They turned out to be so pretty together, so now I'm going to have to try them... Also, color shifting mica came to mind for all the different types of molds with a lot of detailing to them. Take care of you and yours. Ringy-dingy 🔔🔔🦋🦋

[@sharonkayboone7043]

Never thought of putting candles inside! Thanks for the tip!! Love your videos!!

[@markduggan3451]

That is stunning Steve.

[@LornaH2]

That turned out lovely...beautiful mold. Thanks Steve!

[@AwkwardBirb]

Gorgeous! I’ve found that no matter how carefully I turn these molds I end up leaving fingerprints in the mica, so I’ve just accepted it as being a unique feature 😂

[@OG_Beckie_Leigh]

When my finished items don’t go according to my original plans, I call the “mistakes” design elements. Always one-of-a-kind. 😂😂😂 ✌🏼💜🛼

[@laineykearns4506]

This piece turned out beautiful. Cool idea to put the tealights in too 👍

[@eclecticselections6242]

When can we see instant snow being tested in resin? Would be a really cool experiment.

[@leannegillette4667]

l think this is absoluley beautiful

[@paisleykitty7]

What a great mold! That turned out fantastic! Well done!

[@suesmith9202]

[@LiveSleepResin]

Beautiful Steve. Love the colours in this one.

[@Linda-zd4ec]

So pretty!

[@bloodycreekdesigns1419]

Love these colors looks fab

[@Oonagh72]

Oh it is beautiful.

[@JustCallMeMeghan]

Beautiful Steve!

[@Navybrat64]

That is so pretty. I would like you to do windchime molds and show how to string them. Plssss.

[@designsbyrdw907daphnejwalker]

I love how it turned out

[@stephgaldos1744]

This is a great technique turns beautifully .And idk why I didn't ask this sooner could you please Make a video of how to store resin projects I have put mine in a specific drawer with baking soda but not sure if there a way better way since thy still smell even tough are fully cured

[@rondaedinger7912]

I love the colors

[@johannessordfarne4553]

Perfect result!

[@sarahelliott5790]

These are lovely.

[@Kathy61954]

I LOVE that !!!!!!!!!!!!

[@tishmoore2732]

You nicked my mold 🤣 and then you did a much better job than I did. I like the way you decorated the pot. I like the idea of painting the molds with mica powder and have done it a couple of times successfully. Unfortunately, I did it again with a different mold and the end result was very dull, not sure what happened there, but it put me off doing it again. Having seen your results on this video, think I will try again

[@karenmorris5847]

Just beautiful Steve, good job 🤗

[@catherinedavis1690]

It’s very very pretty!!! The colors you chose look great together! You do make it look soooo easy. lol I think it would make a very nice gift too.

[@richardbriansmith8562]

Awesome steve McDonald

[@dawncoleman470]

Love these pots. One day I'll get to try one or two for myself ❤

[@marciaamos8351]

I have this exact mold and what I do is I put a ball on top or sphere to add a little more to it

[@robinmckenzie4142]

beautiful!!! thank you !!!

[@lizzie511958]

Beautiful

[@hfranke07]

Great vodeo.... thanks. If you would like to buy a low cost presure pot, you could look after a waterfilter housing. These cost 20 USD and can take a 125 PSI of presure..... this will remove all bobles from your cast.

[@ravynalexander1895]

Beautiful ❤

[@tlcshandmadehayloft1448]

its beautiful

[@zamnelna]

I really like this!!

[@marywaspe]

[@raquelreyes8573]

Hi RAQUEL here from Puerto Rico wow i just love how easy you make it look i am still new i haven gotten the hang of the amount of resin to pour in the mode i just made a trinket pot as you call it the bottom piece came out good but the top has not cure yet its still sticky and its been 24 hours can you please tell me how to cure the top or cover i am not sure if i use epoxy pigment coloring or resin dye the are both Lets Resin please tell me if the amount of resin that i pour was wrong i use two part resin A and B you have a great talent god blessing to you

[@maryellenrichards391]

Love it

[@ssue4q]

Really pretty color choices Steve. But I don't understand why you did not use Mica on that third row? And I of course would have appreciated some glitter to go with the mica powder. Absolutely beautiful though

[@pattyharrison6386]

Steve, Another pretty piece, what ever do you do with all of these goodies? You've gotta have gobs & gobs of resin thingys... LOL

[@beckypartain4237]

This is a question for an older video. When making jewels to but in the holder you painted something black on the holder for the stone. What was this and do you pour resin on the top? Thanks love your videos.

[@karid1434]

Can I ask what mica powders you used? That purple is absolutely gorgeous

[@dulceteixeira9097]

Beautiful mood! Look gorgeous! How deep is it? 🥰

[@tanyabroeckx2583]

Hi Steve! Thank you for this video. I have seen these molds and have never bought one, I wasn't sure how it would work. And now I know it does 😀 you mentioned casting resin, as apposed to jewellery resin. The only difference between those is uv light to cure the jewelery resin and over night cure for the casting resin? I'm really new to this type of craft. Do you have a video for the difference between those two?

[@Spellbound987]

How much resin did you make for both the lid and base please Steve? Yours came out so beautifully love, i hope mine will come out as beautiful too. ☺️

[@daniellecaparulo8557]

What did you use to put the mica on the mold with ?? Love your videos

[@farhadnaraghi281]

Dear sir.could you please tell me how do u make so tiny mold silicom

[@sunflowerdaisy9395]

What brand of resin can you use with a real candle

[@corema37]

What was that tool you used to apply the powder?

[@artcraft2893]

Its really hart to deal with baubles in lid mold.

[@samanthadeer9622]

How much resin did you use?? For both parts please??

[@denisebarrows9890]

It would be interesting to know what to do with nail polish bottles after the polish was all ussed up

[@sarahmallonee]

They would make really cool shaker key chains or the oil and water lava lamp look key chains and would be really easy to make

[@vickycleal7806]

Art deco look

[@raquelcentellas7195]

Question. Did you mix the power I resin to put on or did you just dust powder in cracks as is?

[@pattyharrison6386]

He dusted the cracks, lol

[@joecrypto2459]

Wait so epoxy candle holder with real candles don't work because of the heat makes the resin melt?

[@raquelreyes8573]

HI Raquel here from Puerto Rico i have send you message about 9 months ago but you have not reply yet if is at all possible can you tell me about the question of how much resin to use in the this trinket pot for candles i kow you are very busy so please when you can reply

[@tlcshandmadehayloft1448]

i tried this and still cant get all the color out!

[@genevafraser5859]

Love it
