The response to this video has been unreal! Thank you! I never in a millions years thought I would be on KZbin. This was my very first video (I am sure you can tell) and I get a lot of the same questions asked. To help answer those, I am going to pin this here: *After the glitter is dry I use epoxy to seal the glitter. *I use Allumilite epoxy resin. *These are hand wash only after the epoxy is cured. *This video was to show how I do my ombre technique. It is not a completed project at this point. Thanks again!!

Violet Doodles Boutique Thank you! This look awesome!! Quick question- did you put on a layer of epoxy, THEN apply the decal, THEN another layer of epoxy or is the decal on the very outside??

[@ZenFuLTouchofPassion]

No, thank you so much for sharing.🙏🏽💘

[@VioletDoodlesBoutique]

You got it! after the glitter, epoxy until smooth, vinyl. epoxy.

[@1NitaJAustin]

You are a natural to say this was your first video. Very simple and able to follow along. Subscribing to you're channel just in case you decide to do another video 😉

[@sharonbotelho1590]

This might sound silly, but thank you for filming the entire process and not altering the video to make it shorter. ☺️

[@VioletDoodlesBoutique]

You are welcome!

[@michelewalburn4376]

I'm glad she does too so we know how much time to allot for the craft.

[@VioletDoodlesBoutique]

They are very time consuming.

[@missysledge2244]

Agreed! It's nice to really be able to see the in's and out's of a process when you are trying to learn a technique

[@VioletDoodlesBoutique]

You're welcome. I try to include all of the process if I can.

[@jubileesisters9711]

I almost never comment but had to after reading all the questions and replies. You answered EVERY SINGLE ONE, even when the same question was asked of you 50 times. You are truly a patient soul, which is why you are such a good crafter. Please don’t even take one second to respond to me! Just want to say you did great video, and TIP Of THE DAY to everyone else out there: IF YOU WILL READ THE QUESTIONS AND REPLIES FIRST, you will not only most likely have your question answered but learn even more little extras from Violet Doodles and other crafters as well. Great job and beautiful project!

[@VioletDoodlesBoutique]

You are my favorite! :) It does get repetitive, and on my grumpy days frustrating, but I am fairly patient. I taught Special Ed for a while and I think that is part of why it usually doesn't bother me. I am just so used to breaking steps down and repeat, repeat, repeat. Thanks so much for the comment! It truly made my day!

[@AlmostHeaven]

Can I be second favourite pleeeeease?! 😊

[@KeautyDesigns]

And if you watch the video, she also gives the name of the glitter she's using, so I'd like to add to your comment, @JubileeSisters, don't ask a question that was answered in the video! LOL My own pet peeve...

[@VioletDoodlesBoutique]

Thanks for noticing!

Thanks!

[@oneofabind1472]

Wow! That was mesmerizing to watch. I stumbled upon your video and although I was not looking for glittered cups, decided to click on it because I'm curious to know how they're made. I would go crazy with all the glitter flying around, but I find it super satisfying to watch. Your cups look amazing.

[@VioletDoodlesBoutique]

THANK YOU! I won't lie; I have glitter everywhere! But I do love making them!

[@tjreyer7281]

I find that doing the glitter application in a cardboard box lined with a garbage bag helps to keep the glitter storm under control, and while it’s amazing to watch-it’s even more mesmerizing to create! Give it a try! I made everyone in my family one for Christmas a couple years ago and they were a big hit! ❤️

[@susanlentini7840]

I'm so going to try ombre next. I'm new to this art and you are amazing about explaining but not over board. Thank you.

Those are beautiful!!!! Love the colors. Thank you for showing me how to do the ombré!

[@VioletDoodlesBoutique]

Thank you!

[@oclashes6922]

Thanks for your tips! So far this is the best method that I have seen as far as blending the colors without it looking like strips versus the "ombre" effect. I can appreciate the chatter given I'm a newbie to this. Thanks again!

[@VioletDoodlesBoutique]

Thank you! Some people like it... some would rather have it zoom through.

[@aliciaydiego2536]

Do u do makeup glass holders also or do u even sell this ??? Nice ideas so creative

[@VioletDoodlesBoutique]

That's awesome! Thanks for sharing!

[@kecialarkins-austin5696]

Violet Doodles Boutique do you recommend applying lock tite or some form of adhesive in between the first and second coat or is waiting an hour in between before applying the second coat of mod podge sufficient?

[@VioletDoodlesBoutique]

I apply the second coat with mod podge just like the first coat. I dry brush any extra loose glitter off first and its good to go. I will seal between coats if it is more than 2 colors or a specific design.

[@mirandabernal102]

Angela Sanchez does the glitter come off with washing or use? Did you seal it with some kind of clear after??

[@VioletDoodlesBoutique]

This tutorial was only showing the glitter application. These have to be finished with epoxy.

I apply the second coat exactly the same way as the first. I will consider an epoxy tutorial in the future.

Great video, love this effect, never knew there was food grade epoxy, this is why I never tried these. What kind of white paint did you use before glittering. So nice that you care what products you use. Thanks for sharing.

[@VioletDoodlesBoutique]

Thanks! I used flat white spray paint. I have been looking into lots of resins. Not all have gone through the FDA testing to make sure it is safe to come in contact with food, although many more probably are safe. I have had a hard time finding one that is slow to yellow, FDA compliant, and has a high heat rating. The search continues...

[@corasisguerrero7989]

@@VioletDoodlesBoutique do you do it before or after?

[@VioletDoodlesBoutique]

After the glitter.

[@sorenwashere]

Does the second layer make a big difference from when it just the first like shown on the video? Please answer as soon as possible. Thank you

[@VioletDoodlesBoutique]

It really depends on the type of glitter and the base color. These were a transparent type of glitter on a white base, so I could still see a little white after the first coat. If you match your base to your glitter, you are less likely to need two coats. I usually answer questions at night after all of my mom duties are finished. Good luck.

On the first cup, around the lip area there was a place that the glitter missed...how do you go back and touch that up?

[@VioletDoodlesBoutique]

I just went back over that spot lightly with my MP on my brush and added the glitter. It is at 15:14 in the video if you want to rewatch it.

[@sharronwells1912]

This may have already been asked but, once you've applied your first coat of glitter what do you do to prep for your second coat of glitter? Do you brush the loose glitter off then apply another coat of mod podge then glitter again? Thank you.

[@VioletDoodlesBoutique]

Yes, exactly that! Lightly dry brush, MP, glitter. Wait until fully dry between coats!! After second coat, lightly dry brush, tape and epoxy.
