I bought alot of supplies from you .. can't wait!!! Thx for your tutorials♥️

[@lilianfox100]

I love this !!!!!!

[@kirstencorby8465]

Really nice job, TFS.

[@debralivesey2513]

Love, love, love this idea with the metallic paints, can't wait to try them tomorrow. I'm sure I am not the only one that waits for more creative ideas from you Fran!(yes, I have watched ALL of your videos, lol). I am completely sold on Little-Windows products. I only wish I had found them sooner!! So much wasted money on other resins!! I comment often in many different places on the internet, and I know I always sound like a commercial for you, but when you find a product that you love this much....well, you have to tell people!!! Your resin is unlike the others so you can do so much more with it, soooo.....not to be impatient, but more ideas....PLEASE??? Please with a cherry on top???

[@ShannonRathernotsay]

Thanks for narrating professionally and getting straight to the point. Great ideas!!!

[@colleenhamm4008]

What a great video. Thank you. It was so fun to watch. I am Inspired!

[@mycreations318]

Absolutely loving this idea… This is so easy for people to do and yet extremely creative and beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing

[@LittleWindowsResin]

Thank you! I love this one too, I've also done this with paint chips and it's amazing the results you can get with a few inexpensive (or free) supplies!

[@sarahdermody6665]

Really enjoyed this, very informative and inspiring x

[@chelleweatherspoon2226]

This is a wonderful tutorial and I am inspired by this technique. I plan to use it for my earrings designs. Thanks for sharing.

[@LittleWindowsResin]

You are so welcome!

[@OrangeTabbyCat]

Best doming resin ever! And I love these ideas!! You got me with this big time. I love the shapes, I love metallic colors and I got about a million ides in my head now. I think I'd paint the backside too though. The paper punchers have been on my list forever. If only shipping to Europe wasn't that expensive...no wait....if only my cats wouldn't have to go to the vet for one months for one silly thing another. Then I could spend my money on resin things again 😃

[@LittleWindowsResin]

+OrangeTabbyCat Ha! I've got kitty love too, so I know what you mean. Be sure to use your 10% OFF coupon LW1016, to help offset shipping. Have lots of fun creating, and send me pics of your punched creations :) [e-mail]

[@helkatww6186]

I wish I had even a fraction of your creativity, Fran! I'm so impressed and inspired by the ideas you come up with! :)

[@LittleWindowsResin]

Why thank you!! I hope you get a chance to make some of these, these techniques are addictive!

[@adeloach]

Outstanding tutorial! And thank you for the care you bring to your videography.

[@antardrishtiwelfareforum270]

Superb

[@HouseScraper]

I really enjoy this video I have made my own love it

[@inspiredcaroline24]

Absolutely amazing! You make it look so easy. I did my 1st resin mix & putting it into molds, in last 48 hours. They didn't turn out to be that great. I measured, mixed, covered & waited correctly. I suppose it'll take a LOT of failed attempts, lol. Particularly tricky was pouring resin & hardener, without spilling. Anyway, I just realised you made this video a long time ago. Silly me. Tyfs. 😊

[@pepethepatriot7524]

You should try UV resin, no mixing and instant results

[@CherrylMaree]

These a gorgeous. Thank you for the great video and idea.

[@marwamokhtar7823]

So beautiful Fran

[@lexxikang]

Such a beautiful piece

[@angelbuttons1957]

Great ideas for me to make some great buttons!

[@LittleWindowsResin]

+AHB Thanks! Be sure to send us some photos of your creations to [e-mail] I LOVE seeing what others are making :)

[@maymax2]

Amazing, so creative, I told my sister and friends in India about ur videos... they loved !!! Thanks for sharing such creative video.. keep posting :)

[@carolquick3979]

It's amazing this is only paper! It looks like metal! I wish I had such steady hands. Doming is my weakness. I usually bump a piece or my hand shakes and I pour too much. I'll get the hang of it eventually.

[@LittleWindowsResin]

+Carol Quick Keep creating Carol, it's just a matter of finding an application technique that's easiest for you. Often I'll touch my mixing wand to the actual piece and let the resin run down, that steadies things for me - not so practical when you're working on frames or thin pieces, but worth another try for solid ones :)

[@w50mf1f]

Carol Quick I have the same problem!

[@LeaRama]

I LOVE those!!!! Beautiful!

[@cassandramangrum8522]

I really enjoyed your tutorial

[@lsd9287]

I love this video, fromn Mexico

[@LittleWindowsResin]

Gracias!

[@BlackCat_2]

This is really neat! I don't have any paper punches (yet) but I do have polymer clay and all kinds of clay cutters in different shapes and sizes so I figure I can use those. I have 3 packages of resin too so no shortage there. :) I do plan to check Hobby Lobby next week for some paper cutters though. :p I recycle my aluminum and then go spend the money at Hobby Lobby. :) 5 bags gets me about $6 so saving up to bring 10 bags next time and also a 40% coupon. The Recycle center is right behind Hobby Lobby so it is convenient. - Heidi

[@LittleWindowsResin]

+BlackCat2 Wow, that's a good system! Have fun creating :)

[@BlackCat_2]

LittleWindowsResin It works out well. :) I have made a bunch of polymer clay shapes after rolling out a sheet paper thin with my pasta machine. I have baked them but haven't yet added any resin. I will be doing that shortly when it warms up a little bit.

[@MichellesHandmadeCreations]

Good to know the resin and paint work well together. Love the effect you got with the paints and brushing technique. The resin really accentuates how pretty the paint looks. BTW, not sure I have the patience or steady hand to apply the resin to the tiny punched frames, but will give it a whirl. TFS!

[@judittoth4527]

Beautiful and clever 😀

[@brencarna10]

amazing, gorgeous, love it

[@Aquagirl-wf5ur]

Love This!

[@hkreations5108]

Just beautiful and so creative! Could you please tell me is it the double-sided photo paper that you sell? Do you have to seal the edges once they're cut?

[@kimjohnston615]

great video!

[@Rendosian]

Loved this! Can't wait to try this! (Was someone vacuuming? Send them my way, lol!)

[@LittleWindowsResin]

+Jacob Pranski Ha, yes they were!! They were in the next studio and I didn't realize the audio was picking them up until I was editing. I'm thrilled you were paying such close attention :)

[@BlackCat_2]

+Jacob Pranski Ha ha ha. I vacuum daily this time of year. I have pets and it helps to keep the fleas under control. - Heidi

[@annagray6491]

These are beautiful! Could you please tell me how you made that wonderful butterfly?

[@LittleWindowsResin]

Thank you Anna! I'm not sure which butterfly you mean, but if it's the one I'm thinking of here's a link to the tutorial and more photos: www.little-windows.com/blogs/project-center/7836931-brilliant-3-d-butterflies

[@carmencamino9040]

Gorgeous results. I have a question, did you paint the film the white or plastic of the film? Tks

[@LittleWindowsResin]

Hello again Carmen! I actually painted on a sheet of our double-sided Special Photo Paper for Resin, but you can use any paper that can be painted without warping, and that can be easily and cleanly punched after painting. Here's a link to our papers: www.little-windows.com/collections/special-papers [e-mail]

[@angelamarshall1819]

i love it..what are the colors of the hearts?

[@LittleWindowsResin]

Hi Angela! I'm so glad you like this vid, the possibilities are literally endless with this technique. The lighting is a little weird on some shots, the hearts on the right are made by painting the paper silver, and the ombre ones are copper and aqua paint blended. I hope that helps :)

[@angelamarshall1819]

LittleWindowsResin yes it does thankyou.i looked for the paper punchers on the site and only found one can you provide a link to all of them or maybe just give me the sizes?i want them all even the hearts.

[@patriciaruanova2138]

I love it. Should you make something with aquarium topic. For a bathroom wall decoration. Thank you.

[@maryheycock1]

I so wish I could get your products in the UK. Postage is just too expensive from USA to here!

[@LittleWindowsResin]

Hi Mary! Be on the lookout for promotions coming up in our e-newsletter :)

[@fromfloridawithlove253]

wow! how easy! So,you actually don¨t make your pendants from the filling the molds,just with the painted paper!! How genius simple! And may you say which kind of the paper do you use for this?

[@LittleWindowsResin]

Thank you! These are lots of fun to make and since we use the Silicone Doming Tray instead of molds, you can make them any size or shape. I painted on the Thinner Special Photo Paper from little-windows.com, because it doesn't soak up the paint, stays flat, and is really easy to punch and to cut. You can try other papers but you'll need to experiment. Have fun creating :)

[@crafty_gem6563]

Beautiful

[@LittleWindowsResin]

Thank you! There are endless possibilities with this technique, I hope you have a chance to make some :)

[@chapissosa2532]

Parece papel lustre. Pero te lo investigo con mucho gusto, porque éste se ve un poco rígido, sólo dame la oportunidad de ir a la papelería o a Office Depot. Saludos

[@breens1973]

Hey Fran. Just wondering about your clear photo film. I have printed off a picture and have done the first layer of resin on the front. Do I have to do the back too??? Thanks Kim

[@LittleWindowsResin]

Hi Kim! Oooh, that sounds wonderful! Yes, I would always recommend doming both sides of the Clear Photo Film, since it's so thin. This will give it more dimension, more of a glass-like look, and a bit more substance. Hope that helps :)

[@morrisdancer11]

Love all your work the end result is great., but. As soon as I saw the amount of supplies I let it go. No way can I afford all this Good luck to those who can and great crafting.

[@LittleWindowsResin]

Hi Vera! Thanks for the feedback. There are so many ways you can modify each project we show to minimize expense, or to utilize materials you have in your stash already. If you have some scrapbook punches or don't mind cutting by hand, and you have some pretty papers or greeting cards, all you'd need is a little Brilliant Resin and a Doming Tray. I hope that helps, keep creating :)

[@denverdazzle5131]

Where can you find the mat for resin pouring and button backs?

[@amenab.studio]

What kind of paper did you use for this project? Thanks

[@gracijelamalisa9008]

it's great! thank you

[@LittleWindowsResin]

Thank you Gracijela! I hope you have a chance to make some too, it's so much fun, they're lightweight and comfortable to wear too!

[@zohayazdani00]

Are these breakable? Do the resin yellow?? Thank you.

[@irinam6808]

Hi, Fran! I love love love the way you teach. I got the Little Windows resin about a month ago and it's so easy to work with! love it! I'm buying more :) I have a problem though. After I sand the edges of my pieces, they become dull and ugly. I don't know what to use to make them shiny again. Any suggestions? Thank you so so much!

[@LittleWindowsResin]

Hello Irina, I'm so glad you're loving Little Windows Brilliant Resin! There are ways to deal with sand-dulling, can you send a photo or two to me at [e-mail] so I can have a look at your pieces? I'm sure I'll have some fitting suggestions once I know how they look :)

[@angelamarshall1819]

LittleWindowsResin hi can you share what you recommended for the dull edges?

[@pandorade8828]

gorgeous! What kind of colours do you use?

[@zibakhan9867]

Is this paper though? Looks like thin sheets of white plastic to me?

[@LittleWindowsResin]

Hi there! It's our Special Photo Paper for Resin, you can find some here, but you can also use other materials as long as they grip onto the paints you're using and don't chip off as you punch out your shapes. Thanks for asking :). www.little-windows.com/collections/special-papers/products/8-1-2-x-11-6-pack

[@cynv2808]

Quick question, how do you clean your mixing cup and wand?

[@w50mf1f]

Fran Valera I purchased a silicone measuring cup and when I’m done pouring from it and scraping every last bit of resin, I put the stick against the inside side of it and let it dry. Once dry just tug on the stick and it comes out easily , usually in one piece! I just wish I could find a bigger version of it, it’s only a 4 ounce measure.

[@Panafico]

Hi, time ago i watched a video where you use a bottle of parfum to make a print, and then drop coulored resine csn you please send me the link please i cant found it anymore cheers larry

[@LittleWindowsResin]

Hello Laurent! I think you mean our old Dichro-ISH video, we used to offer a black powder that looked like it was in a little wine bottle, that product has been improved and now looks like the one used in this tutorial: www.little-windows.com/blogs/project-center/7836943-dichro-ish-resin

[@OrangeTabbyCat]

How do you spell that brand name of the acrylics?

[@LittleWindowsResin]

+OrangeTabbyCat Hi! The ones shown in the video are Viva Precious Metal Colors (made in Germany but available in the US - Hobby Lobby has some), Lumiere by Jacquard (fabric paints, but they work well for this because they are flexible and don't get brittle or chip off the edges when dry), the gold one is just a DecoArt Metallic, which you can get at any craft store. Have lots of fun creating!

[@dorob123]

Awesome work ! I wrote the colors on the little-windows.com ,but didn't find it . Will you direct us to the page by giving us the URL, here , please.

[@LittleWindowsResin]

Hello! I'll be happy to help, do you mean the paints I used on the papers? Feel free to email me [e-mail] if you prefer :)

Ive looked on little windows for the med square hole punch and i can only see small .

[@LittleWindowsResin]

So sorry Diesel Elmer, we will have the Medium 1" Square Punch back in stock in the next few weeks, if you've signed up for our email newsletter at little-windows.com I'll send out an announcement as soon as they arrive. Thanks so much for your patience :) - Fran

[@desirawnash2632]

Cant wait!! Ive been looking for it every where. I was thinking it didn't exist lol. I have a question, when i use the resin, after all is dried, some place on the resin has this spiral cloud?fog look. kinda looks like a bad water spot. any idea why?

[@chapissosa2532]

Espectaculares!! soy de México y no creo encontrar el cortador de papel, pero lo buscaré. O en línea buscaré y pediré me lo traigan a casa por envío. O tú no haces envíos de todo el material que ocupas? Gracias, un saludo y felicidades por todos tus trabajos.

[@chapissosa2532]

Ohhhh!!! eso es fantástico. Muchas gracias, muy pronto te pediré muchas cosas. Saludos desde México!!!! Un abrazo

[@patriciaarcr07]

Hola, una preguntita a ti que hablas español, sabes cuál papel es el que está usando Fran, es que se ve brillante pero no parece plástico. Cuál otro se podrá usar? Saludos y gracias.

[@LittleWindowsResin]

Hola Patricia! En este vídeo, puedo usar nuestro papel fotográfico especial de little-windows.com. Es agradable y suave, mantiene la pintura bien sin deformaciones y puñetazos limpiamente, pero puedes experimentar con otros papeles demasiado. Acaba de encontrar algo que sea lo suficientemente rígido (para mantener la pintura sin deformación), sin ser demasiado grueso para perforar. Espero que esto ayude, diviértase creando joyas y botones, o lo que quieras!

[@patriciaarcr07]

+LittleWindowsResin Muchas gracias por tu respuesta. Saludos.

[@hollemack7391]

What size were the punches you used?

[@LittleWindowsResin]

+Holle Mack You can see all of our punch sizes and shapes by clicking the following link, but for example the Medium Rounded-Corner Square Punch is 1", the Small Rounded-Corner Square Punch is 5/8" www.little-windows.com/collections/paper-punches-2

[@deborahnoble7361]

what sort of wax paper do you use

[@LittleWindowsResin]

Hello Deborah! If you mean the paper at the end of this tutorial, it's actually the back paper from a sheet of stickers, but you can also use any kitchen waxed paper, or palette paper. Thanks for asking :) - fran

[@DOLPHINGROUP]

you are very creative , what type of resin are you using ?

[@LittleWindowsResin]

Thank you DOLPHINGROUP! I only use Little Windows Brilliant Resin, it's perfectly formulated for safely making small shiny things. You can find different sizes, and more project ideas and free how-to's at little-windows.com Thanks for asking :)

[@sheylasouzamagalhaes7930]

Qual o papel que você usou?

[@LittleWindowsResin]

Hello! I'm using a sheet of our Special Photo Paper for Resin, but you can use anything that is 1) not warped by acrylic paint, and. 2) punchable when painted. I hope that helps :) [e-mail]

[@ElizabethKilbride]

Where did you find that tray?

[@ElizabethKilbride]

Never mind just found it on your website. Ordering now

[@nievesmartin755]

que bonito

[@joannaremson3657]

Will this work with UV resin?

[@LittleWindowsResin]

Hello Joanna! UV resin has a tendency to pull back from edges so you'd have to experiment with different substrates. Also the Brilliant Resin I use is not as brittle when cured as UV resin will be so keep that in mind. Let me know how how it goes :) [e-mail]

[@joannaremson3657]

LittleWindowsResin oh, ok. Thnx so much

[@adambadaoui2567]

what king of paper is it?

[@LittleWindowsResin]

Hello Juliette! You can use any stiff paper but I find our Special Photo Paper works best because it's stiff yet thin, and doesn't absorb the resin so it won't warp on you. Have fun :)

[@mariaelenaiorio6120]

I love all your work. But I have problems with spoken English. Is it possible to insert subtitles even in English to facilitate translation ?? Your videos not know why, do not have the youtube tool for translation. Congratulations and thank you

[@LittleWindowsResin]

+Mariaelena Iorio Thank you for your feedback Mariaelena, it really helps us improve. I will look into options for translations so you can more easily enjoy, and follow along in your own creativity. Best wishes :)

[@mariaelenaiorio6120]

+LittleWindowsResin Thanks Fran for your attention ... I would love to buy their kits but I'm in Brazil and will be very expensive for my pocket is clear kkkk ... you are my inspiration, but I tried it with epoxy resin and is not good now I will buy the crystal polyester resin, hope it works out.
