Welcome to my channel! I haven't worked with Jesmonite in over a year, but I purchased some exciting new molds and wanted to test them out. Jesmonite is not cheap (especially here in Toronto) so I didn't want to throw away my old product. However, I realized that there is a shelf life and it becomes harder to combine the base and liquid. Watch and learn some mistakes I've made this time around :)

Thanks!

[@joolieshome]

Thank you so much for supporting my channel! 💗

[@Infinityinternity]

I appreciate that you shared your mistakes.I am making so many of them😊.I realize that time,patience and the consistency is the key.I just have a hard time to find a sealer.I used spray sealer looked horrible😢

[@joolieshome]

I made so many mistakes with jesmonite 🫣 but I agree! Patience and consistency make it better. Is it the wet spots from the spray sealer you’re having issues with? I use the mod podge spray sealer and sometimes it looks amazing and sometimes I get wet spots depending on how it decides to come out😅 so I always test the spray can before each use. it can be frustrating when the sealer ruins your piece after perfecting everything else!

I’ve been working with white cement the past couple of months and I never got the marble effect that I wanted. When I bought jesmonite today and I’m still struggling with the air bubbles and the marbling 😭 good luck to all of us 😂❤️❤️

[@joolieshome]

hahaha yes good luck to all of us! I definitely need to keep practising. I'd love to try white cement, I just don't know where to get it. Is there a specific brand you're using that you can recommend?

[@abrarnori]

@@joolieshome I have a small market that sells it in 2kg bags but no specific brand 😓 it just says white cement but it’s all clumpy i have to sift it.

[@joolieshome]

ohhh ok maybe i'll try to sift my jesmonite as well! Learn from each other 🫶

[@lucywhyman042]

Thanks for the tips :) I’m sure I read somewhere not to wash up the jesmonite as it’s bad for the environment to go down the pipes and can also set inside your pipes, but to use silicone tools and put waste in the bin.

[@joolieshome]

Hi Lucy! Thanks for letting me know, I'll be sure to look into that :) Thank you for watching 🤍

[@21_f_aus]

Or you can put the dried up jesmonite into a box for another project, why waste it when it can be used in other ways.... I've only just ordered a jesmonite starter kit the other day because of seeing another youtuber sharing about jesmonite... it's all trial and error, keep any excess jesmonite for future uses, even look on youtube

[@joanadarcvianaborges1504]

I tried to mix read, yellow and brown but it's not work well 😢

[@joolieshome]

try yellow blue and red! add tiny amounts at a time :) Thanks for watching!

[@joanadarcvianaborges1504]

Hello!! how did you get the beige color? Did you mix blue, white and red?

[@joolieshome]

Hi! I used a mix of yellow blue and red. I added a tiny amount of each colour into the liquid until I achieved the shade I wanted. I don’t remember the exact amount of each pigment, but add them one at a time and you should be able to build a nice beige colour!

[@joanadarcvianaborges1504]

Thank you very much 😊

[@Samalkab]

Hello dear can I ask you is it possible to use if to create a perfume cap/ cover ? I will use a sealer ! Would the alcohol in the perfume effect the jesmonite and melt it down ?

[@joolieshome]

hello! It sounds like a beautiful idea, but I'm not entirely sure how the alcohol would react with the sealer or the Jesmonite. I recommend reaching out to the company for more information. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful. Thank you so much for watching!

[@Nana-cl7ez]

I’m a new user as well and came across your video! What pigment did you use? Jesmonite pigment is so expensive so I’m just thinking on just using acrylic paint? Have you tried that yet? Thank you!

[@joolieshome]

Hi! Thanks for coming by my channel and watching! I use Jesmonite pigment and yes I agree, they are expensive. I have a ton left and wish I could share! but they're also more than 2 years old 🫣 I tried acrylic paint once, but just white paint because I wanted to lighten the color. It worked fine, but I'll try to make a video on that in the future!

[@Nana-cl7ez]

@@joolieshome thank you for the feedback! :) looking forward to more tutorial videos 💗

[@Owa24]

What did you seal it with thanks

[@joolieshome]

Hi! I used Mod Podge clear acrylic sealer (amzn.to/3zLTAf6) which works well and doesn't streak, but I am testing out a new natural sealer :) Thanks for watching!

[@anasophie6029]

Comparing jesmonite with paris powder what is better ?

[@joolieshome]

Based on strength and durability, I’d lean towards Jesmonite for jars and coasters. Resin Crete and Boowanite feel lighter and can achieve beautiful colors, but they are more brittle. I dropped one of my candle holders and it shattered :(

[@kennedyraine]

Hi where can I get jesmonite?

[@joolieshome]

Hi! I'm in Canada and I purchased my Jesmonite from fibertek.ca. I believe there's a company called mad mayker that also sells it online, but I haven't purchased from them before. I found this link helpful: jesmonite.com/distributors/ Hope that helps!

[@melevonne]

Oh no.... I have Jesmonite from a LONG time ago that I haven't started using yet....

[@joolieshome]

I didn’t know either until I looked it up, but tbh I’ve used it for over 2 years without a problem. I think if you store it correctly (air tight, dry conditions, correct temp) you’ll be ok! I’m going to sift it and see if I can save the rest of it :)

와우 한국어 자막 고마워요☺️

[@joolieshome]

영상 봐주셔서 감사합니다! I hope youtube translates the subtitles correctly 🤍 Hope to hear from you again :)

[@canadaverydry]

For all these reasons, I gave up! : (

[@joolieshome]

I knowww :( It's a learning curve, but I promise it gets better :)
