Let's mold some pre-made cabochons. Helps save $$$.

TUTORIAL DESCRIPTION:
In this video I am going to make molds of some premade cabochons and try to duplicate the look of the original. First I pour clear resin using Lets Resin in the mold and then using nail film I cut out the shape of the cabochons and place that on top of the clear resin. let it cure. I then take a silver paint pen and cover the back to get the same effect. I also try a gold and black pen to see the effects they give.

[@denisestich8731]

Thank you Denise🌻❤

[@maddieadams75]

Thank for this valuable tutorial. Lots of options in colors by simply changing the background colors ❤

[@resinmeup]

Thank you Maddie❤🌻

[@HelenHywater]

I like your new intro

[@resinmeup]

Thank you Helen, I had music attached to it, through my editing software that I pay for, but YT said it was a copyright🤦 so had to mute it🤔

[@beverlytinsley-minniefield2434]

Very cool cabochons & molds Mary❤❤

Thank you Beverly❤🌻 Hey what's your channel name, I went looking for it today, couldn't remember if I subscribed and I can't find it.

[@ritaprovencher6048]

Great idea! I like experiments and who would know otherwise unless you try, right. You really make awesome videos. Thank you!

[@resinmeup]

Your right, I love experimenting, its how we learn new things. Thank you Rita, I'm glad you like them to🌻❤

[@AldreKatCrafts]

Very pretty! Love the shallow cab molds. ❤❤❤

[@resinmeup]

Thank you Kat❤🌻

[@AldreKatCrafts]

@@resinmeup you are very welcome. 🤗

[@ChibiChula]

Very nice experiment. 😄👍🏻 They all turned out very unique and pretty. ❤ That said, if you want the cabochons to look more like the kind you buy, you're going to need to buy mirror foil. (There's also mirror paint but that's meant for glass or acrylic sheets so I'm not sure if it would work for resin.) Basically, you need to add fake mirror to the back because that's what the store bought version does to make theirs so shiny. Mirrors reflect light back at you through them so they sparkle more. Some people use the cheap "silver leaf" sheets for that. However, you can somewhat imitate the effect on a budget with aluminum foil. It's not quite as shiny but it comes close. 😉 Thanks for sharing! 😁

These are wonderful!! Thank you. They would be a $$$ saver. ❤

Making a bunch of those for concrete stepping stones and make a walk way with them.

[@lisas.522]

Love it. Definitely worth the time. Maybe a hole puncher would be easier for mass production.

[@resinmeup]

Thank you Lisa🌻❤

[@jenniferr8195]

Very cool! A bit fiddly but still cool! It depends on what you need for whatever project you are working on, I guess.

[@resinmeup]

Thank you Jennifer🌻❤

[@jaquelinepaul7384]

Awesome as usual thank you❤😊

[@resinmeup]

Thank you Jaquline🌻❤

[@selene4621]

Oh wow these just turned out soo pretty. WTG in doing this and having as many as you want in what ever colour you want. I will definately have to invest in some rubber silicon at some point and make molds LOL. I found these ones and a bunch more LOL and was thinking oh the molds and colours i could make etc .

[@resinmeup]

Thank you Selene🌻❤

[@StaceyG57]

I love this idea Mary! I almost bought a mold on Etsy to make some of the cabochons but then had the same idea as you. I just keep forgetting to buy the cabochons to make a mold of them. 🙈🤣 I really like how you changed the background for different effects. ❤

[@resinmeup]

Thank you Stacey, the reason I did this was because I went looking for the mermaid scale ones and they didn't have them anymore. My clock was originally going to be with those but I didn't have enough. 💡💡💡Moment🤣🤣 plus so easy to make. Its a no brainer. ❤🌻

[@StaceyG57]

@@resinmeup You’re welcome Mary. I can’t believe they don’t have them anymore!!! That breaks my heart. ☹️

[@resinmeup]

@@StaceyG57 well Hobby Lobby didn't have them, they might have them elsewhere, I didn't look online.

[@StaceyG57]

@@resinmeup Mary, I checked Temu yesterday and they are still carrying them. Whew! 😅

[@paulinehiggins8239]

What a great idea, why didn’t I think of this, no imagination that’s why. Is that your fan or is it pouring with rain, please tell me rain, I love the sound of rain on the roof. 🥰

[@resinmeup]

Thank you Pauline🌻❤ wish I could tell you it was rain, but unfortunately that's my new fan...it started getting louder and louder so had to shut it off.

[@theresaciba632]

Very nice and very interesting but when you turned on that heat gun to blow dry those things all I could see was a bunch of little flying saucer flying everywhere😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😇😇😇

[@resinmeup]

Thank you Theresa🌻❤🤣

[@lindahamm193]

Mary, I love the different experiments. Each one is unique. May I ask what it is I hear running in the background of your videos ? Have a blessed day.

[@resinmeup]

Thank you Linda🌻❤ that is my fan, its a new fan that's supposed to be quiet, but its not🤣🤣

[@carolynmozzone412]

Was the pattern in the foil?

[@StaceyG57]

It’s on the original cabochons she made the mold of.

[@resinmeup]

As Stacey said, they were 3d Cabochons made of plastic I believe. Temu has a bunch of different styles and shapes, but you don't get very many.
