Jesmonite and Epoxy Resin Pendants

#JesmoniteandEpoxyResin
Heyyyy my lovies . In this video, I am creating some Jesmonite and Epoxy Resin pendants or keyrings. I have not tried Epoxy and Jesmonite together in flat work. I did try some pots you may remember but they popped apart. Jesmonite and Epoxy Resin together is something I really want to push to see what I can create. My heart is taking me back down the Botanical route .. What do you think ? I hope you enjoy my Jesmonite and Epoxy video please don't forget to thumbs up if you like it and leave me a comment xx

These are so pretty. I think for me, I would probably put down a very thin clear epoxy layer and then put the jesminite in then fill with the colored so see how they came out. Lol

[@pammipayne3334]

I love the colours, I think the seepage is something that adds to it. (no I am not lying). I'd pop them on a cord or chain and wear with 80's pride. It's art, art isn't about perfection. it's about fun and loving what has been created. If you was to say tell me what is best I'd say more breakage/pieces the better. Can you imagine a bolt of lightning and then resin around it, it would look amazing. Thanks for another great video.

[@debrajol3585]

Sorry to say I’m not a fan of the ‘seepages’ 😂😂 I’d put a tiny bit of clear resin in the mold and place the pieces in. Let them cure a couple hours and then add the colored resin to fill. Love your videos Claire & thanks for sharing this. I always learn something 🌹💯💯💯🌹

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

thank you so much my lovely .. Yes this was suggested by others too .. it would be worth having a go at that x

[@mattersofthehartbynat8815]

They turned out looking really cool!! I can’t work out if I love the seepage or not!! I think I’d go with weighing the jesmonite down before pouring the resin! Love the colour combo tho!! ♥️♥️

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

heyyyy lovely ... Yeh I totally hear you .. they are so different it is hard to grasp the love or hate concept of them .. weighing them down definitely helps .. I just didnt do a great job at that haaaa

[@malliganathan4175]

I might dome the backs rather than sanding them back. That way there is a thicker layer on the back that might hold it all together and protect that thin layer from peeling off. I do resin and cant wait to try jesmonite! Thank you for all your helpful videos! This is how I learn so many techniques!

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

heyyyy Malliga thank yooo that definitely sounds like a great idea xx

[@Toonpish]

Yes Claire I would sand 😂😂😂 But if you poured the tiniest resin first then put the jes in you would cover the base in resin and would be a uniform amount underneath 😀 Then as long as you are careful and don’t over pour the tops would be the contrast 😀😀😀😀😀 Absolutely love the experiment hun 😀😀😀 Very bright colours too ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Happy belated Valentine’s 😍

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

thankyooooooo girl xx yeh that would work for sure !! yessss Happy Belated :)

[@tazminmoore455]

Really interesting video 😀. I liked the extra depth from not sanding and the quirkiness of the irregular shaped bits. I'm sure they will look fab with some decals, as you mentioned 😀 I discovered that Hydroflow doesn't stick to resin as well. I made some dried flower coasters using Master Cast resin 😍 and decided that a Hydroflow backing would look good. And it did!! I liked the ceramic effect. However ..... A week later I started sanding the Hydroflow with wet sandpaper and realised water was seeping in between the layers. Closely followed by the Hydroflow just falling off and breaking apart a 🙄. I haven't got around to remaking the coasters yet, probably next week or so as all my heat pads are full up. I will be doing the Hydroflow backing first this time. Maybe that's something you might like to experiment with?? 😀

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

ahhhh Yes Tazmin it is pretty much the same product .. water based acrylic compound that cures so fast it just wont stick xxx

[@mizzuzie3338]

Lovely colours for Valentine's day! If I wanted to try the same I think I would make the jesmonite part thinner. Then coat the bottom with resin and let it get a bit tacky before putting back the jesmonite parts and filling the rest with more resin.

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

thank you so much Mizz xx a few have mentioned this .. definitely worth having a go xx

[@mizzuzie3338]

@@ClairesCraftyCorner The more I think of it I realise it would be very hard to get such a smooth surface as you had with these. One would probably have to make the jesmonite part thin enough to have a tiny bit of resin at the bottom to lock it in place and then enough room to cover it as well.

[@tiapierce3393]

If you hate sanding try Ecrylimer! It looks exactly the same as Jesmonite - but doesn’t need sanding

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

heyyyy Tia ... thank you so much Jesmonite doesnt need sanding either thankfully xxx only sharp edges and Terrazzo x

[@wallywaffles1333]

One benefit of sanding them is that if you use a nice fine grained sander, you could get a nice seaglass milky/matte look for the resin, which could be lovely.

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

heyyyy Wally .. ohhh that is such a good idea .. combine the sea glass look with the matte Jesmonite .. I think that would be beautiful thank you so much xx

[@ellishansen8115]

Hi Claire. They all look cool. I like the multiple pieces ( 2 pieces of Jesmonite, 1 resin) more as well. I don't mind the over spill. I'm thinking if you use more contrasting colors, it will look even better!. I hate sanding as well. You should try making a pendent with both liquids in a straw or cylinder. That would look cool as well. Beautiful work, thanks!

I'm totally a fan of them being 100% glossy, maybe you could top coat or do a thin layer of resin first and the add the jesmonite? I would only sand if you want to keep the mix of matte and shiny! ☺️

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

heyyyy lovely .. yes a few have suggested this .. you totally could top coat them all on Resin for sure x someone also suggested sanding them all down to give that sea glass effect with the Jesmonite that would look great .. but for shiny yes Resin all the way ! xx

To try it also Clare what jesmonite do you prefer to use as I would love to try this effect Xx

[@lesleywilliams5877]

I must admit, I don't love the seepage. Maybe put a little resin in the mould, then add jesmonite pieces so that all the jesmonite pieces are covered by resin?

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

Ohhhh yes that could totally work too 😍😍😍 there's a chance the jesmonite would kinda float... but worth a go 😍😍

[@OG_Beckie_Leigh]

@@ClairesCraftyCorner These are so lovely! I also agree with Lesley about putting a little resin in the mould first. Maybe it won’t float if you just pour the smallest possible amount only in the area that you will be placing the Jesmonite piece. 🤔

[@kimclayton5814]

If jesmonite was fully dry speaking of coasters. If you completely coated in resin ..front,back and side edge....would it fail or separate?

[@valentinakostova8033]

Maybe you can add liquid silicone on the jesmonite part so the resin doesnt stain it? I would not sand them :)

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

heyyyy lovely .. Ohhh that could be possible :) xx

[@genettejennings5537]

I would not sand them down, I would fear that they would fall apart. With that said, they are still cool.

Hi. I really love watching your videos. Thank you very much for sharing them. May I just ask how to prevent white discoloration in my pots. Im using 3:2 ratio plaster of paris and acrylic paint for colorant (5% of mold capacity) mixed in water I usually work at night, demold after an 1 hour and cure for 24 hours. My apologies as this question is not related with this video. Thanks for the help.

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

heyyy lovely thank you .. White discolouration is possibly due to powder clumps .. perhaps get a mixing blade ? also if you are adding White pigment add it to the liquid first to get an even coverage x

Not with these no ... I have tried. However they will fall apart on their own ... if you add Jesmonite to cured resin ❤❤

I think it will be easier to top coat over the seepage than sand back the resin.. jesmonite far easier to sand back than the resin 😊
