How To Make a Plaster Base for a Resin Geode. Must See!

[@Maria-ym1cc]

I've watched your video twice and I'm not even ready to start a project! You have created an amazing technique that allows the design of natural-looking geodes, rather than a geode made on a piece of wood. Fabulous! Thank you for sharing your talents.

[@usherl250]

Very pretty Louis, love your experiments. I would have never thought to make a geode surface with clay. This turned out beautiful. I have some tiny shells, I was thinking about doing a geode with some of those to be different. You beat me to the experiment. 🤣🤣🤣

[@mikeerikashanuntedworldcre589]

Thank u for putting every detail on the subscription. my resin kept peeling off the plaster. Now I can fix the problem. Thank u 😍😍😍

[@alexserra9605]

Wow the shell gave it a stunning effect in your right the black line makes it look like it's another layer literally like it's sitting on top of the layer below almost like stairs I love it

[@LouiseSingletonCreations]

Thank you so much ❤️

[@kathysausen6493]

I’m speechless!!! If you knew me you’d chuckle🤣😂 I absolutely adore you & your ART! Your inspiration & tutorial are spot on! I could keep on but you get the ‘gist’ you’re Fabulous!!! 💕💕💕🧜‍♀️

Actually Kathy, I think YOU are the one who is fabulous. It is people like you that keep me creating. Thank you xx

Your videos are wonderful. Thank you for your ideas and advise. You are so talented

[@ramonadavis3411]

Thank you so much for showing how easy it is to make your own mold and not need expensive silicon. This came out just beautiful.

[@alisonmary1443]

I agree different shapes every time.

[@LouiseSingletonCreations]

Thank you, that’s great to hear because I was concerned that other people wouldn’t see how easy it actually is.

[@angelahyde7133]

another wonderful tutorial and learnt so much ,,you explain everything and I thank you for that

[@Dawn24Michele]

Amazing!!! Beautiful! Don't worry about taking to people as if they were seven years old. Most seven year olds are more emotionally stable and capable of figuring things out without being told every step of the way. These people think I'd they use the same brand of paint, brush, etc that you have used it will suddenly make them an artist too. I can only imagine how many times a day you are asked, what type of this did you use? What brand of that did you use? How long did you wait. As if there aren't instructions on the boxes etc. Most people need to be spoken to as if they were two. Anyway, it looks beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

It all makes sense..So Gorgeous!!

[@MLee1777]

You must have spent a lot of time perfecting this method Louise. It looks fantastic 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😍

[@LEDewey_MD]

Just brilliant and beautiful!

[@heidigokkenheim6957]

The most beautyful geode I have seen 😍😍 Xxx

[@LouiseSingletonCreations]

Wow! That is a compliment indeed! Thank you so much xx

[@linnykeeble1619]

Wow! this is just beautiful, and full of interest. It is a piece that you could look at for years and still see something new each time you looked at it. Thank you so much, it is a wonderful tutorial, not only do you make it easy to understand what to do, but why things need to be done at different stages. Last but not least, I want to have a go at making one right now! only problem - waiting for delivery of resin. xxxx😊💖

[@LouiseSingletonCreations]

Thank you Linny, as ever you have made me smile. Please do have a go and let me know how it went xx

[@wendysanders781]

Such a beautiful piece

[@kasie680]

I love those shells at first I thought they were crystal pieces

[@LouiseSingletonCreations]

I think I could have an addiction to abalone shell. I just can’t get enough of it!

[@alisonmary1443]

Great idea, the edging is perfect. Loved watching the resin and colours do their thing when you moved the paper over it, the shell is the cherry on the cake. nothing like looking at layers of resin with colour and bits in it. It is freezing here 3 pairs of fluffy socks and a wool scarf on while watching this 😄 Thank you 🌸

[@LouiseSingletonCreations]

Thank you, yes those shell pieces did transform it. It was the first time I had used them and I really do love them now. Roll on summer! Or even spring would be acceptable!

[@lindafrier1615]

Beautiful 🤩like the addition of the abalone!

[@annagravante3884]

Love this geode absolutley beautiful it looks so realist well done your just amazing your so talentedand what a fabulous artist you are your so inspirational great tutorial really enjoyed watching you create thank you so much for sharing xx

[@EdnaWargon]

Ooooooh Louise, fabulous idea! Love, love , love! Thanks for the inspiration 💋

[@dovespaligrino8312]

It's really beautiful...you know you could have made one with Silicone. I made mine that way, super easy!!

[@alexserra9605]

Thank you such an informative video honestly the best one I've ever seen. This piece came out absolutely stunning. You know what else I noticed all the texturing techniques you used would be great for a tree trunk If you look at the outside of the geode that texture if it was a lot thicker would look just like a tree trunk I'm definitely going to try this geode piece but I'm also going to try to make a tree trunk.

[@LouiseSingletonCreations]

Thank you for such kind words and I love your tree trunk idea! This video was made a long time ago and you’ve encouraged me to remember what I did and how. ❤️❤️❤️

Lovely geode and interesting method. 💜

[@bushbosh]

OMG it’s amazing this is a chocolate geode , I like everything in this video from your voice to the materials that you use to the instructions to the presentation that is not boring like some other people do. I do crafts with glass and mirror and i would like to make a video for what i am doing but don’t know how to make a video by adding my instruction after doing the project so can you help me with that please?🙏🏻

[@LouiseSingletonCreations]

What a lovely comment, thank you so much. It’s very easy to narrate your voiceover afterwards. All you need is a microphone and some video editing software. Do you have a video editing programme yet? I have two, on my iPad I use LumaFusion (it’s very good) and on my pc I use adobe premiere pro but there are some decent free downloads available. Once you have the software you will see a microphone icon so you simply click and speak. I hope that helps. Thank you for watching and good luck with your videos x

[@barbaramargosio3732]

WOW! I can't find words but WOW !!! You're so very much creative! Just a question: you used polyurethane varnish to seal the plaster. Do you think a water based varnish (such as Mod Podge, for example) could work as well? Thank you for your kindness!

[@lisawhite3974]

I love all your videos Such an inspiration You inspire me to create beautiful art Have you got classes I could join? Thanks Louise :)

[@LouiseSingletonCreations]

Thank you so much Lisa, it means a lot to me to know that I make a difference. I don’t do any classes but I am considering it xx

[@tinamariemalinowski2745]

just beautiful on the MDF board is that like contact paper

[@LouiseSingletonCreations]

Thank you. I think it must be contact paper because it came off so easily. When I ordered it I thought it was adhesive but maybe not lol.

[@margaretperry2015]

Thank you so much for the video. Your geode is lovely. I wonder if you could just use the clay as the substrate for the geode. What do you think?

[@LouiseSingletonCreations]

Thank you. You could do that but it takes longer to dry and I think for a piece that size it will be more fragile.

[@manisha-colorcreativityartwork]

beautiful ! usually base is resin or mdf wood for geode resin. you have added one more base to resin. A query pls, can POP plaster be made as a mould for geode resin ? for example, after you remove modelling clay, is it possible to remove POP plaster from resin after resin set? else can you experiment on making POP mould , maybe for a simple resin charm etc ? pls

[@LouiseSingletonCreations]

Thank you. I haven’t tried to use POP for moulding but my thoughts (though I could be wrong) are that it wouldn’t work well. There may be something you could coat the POP with so that it would release from the resin but I think it would be difficult to separate the two pieces without causing damage.

[@manisha-colorcreativityartwork]

@@LouiseSingletonCreations I see. Probably right.
