RESIN SAFETY
Please use resin with care. Any health and safety questions should be asked directly to the company of the resin you use. Read your product safety data sheet (SDS) before using, always wear PPE- nitrile gloves, respirator and goggles or a full-face respirator. Do it in an open, ventilated area- separate to your living spaces. Long sleeved clothing is also advised. Do some research into using resin safely so you can be as well informed as possible to the possible health risks of using it incorrectly.

Why, oh WHY didn't I watch this before messing around with resin today for the first time??? You just covered everything I struggled with. Thank you!

[@the.chronic.ironic]

the latex glue is GENIUS. i just started working with resin last year and have mostly just been experimenting a bunch and teaching myself through trial and error since it is just a hobby right now (though i do hope to start making and selling some pieces now that i’ve mostly gotten the hang of it!) but the one thing i’ve really never gotten down no matter how many times i’ve tried and different ways i’ve tried it is doming. id say it works about 75% of the time, but i’ve ruined really pretty pieces with poor doming jobs or overspill and trying to overcorrect it 😢 i’m so glad i found this video - let’s just say that not all youtube DIY videos are made equally 😂 so i never know what i’m going to get but this one was great - thank you!! i’m ordering liquid latex right now lol. will definitely check out your other videos if you have them!

[@sharonpragacz4768]

Haven’t used resin yet, know I want to dome. This video has had best instruction and tips I’ve seen in 2 weeks . Thank you

[@SeriouslyCreative]

That's very kind, I'm glad it was helpful, thank you! Sorry I only just saw this comment.

[@sheilajohnson3037]

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!! Doming ALWAYS spills to the backs of my projects. Now that I’ve seen your glue idea I don’t have to angrily hurl all my stuff out the window! I appreciate you!

[@SeriouslyCreative]

Doming is probably the most stressful part of using resin in my opinion, so I'm glad this is helpful 😊

[@lisacapers5853]

Thanks for the info. Lisa😮

[@MileyonDisney]

Excellent tutorial! You do a beautiful job of doming. I had trouble with it in the beginning, but I've gotten much better over time - especially with help from videos like yours. Thank you!

[@SeriouslyCreative]

Thank you lovely 💖

[@Shaun49ers]

Your videos are tremendously helpful!! Thank you!!

[@gaweluz3]

Thanks for the video. Helped me a lot with the overspill

[@miikoshka]

This is great. I just made my first pieces yesterday and was wondering how to go about doming them. Perfect timing!

[@SeriouslyCreative]

Yay thanks for watching! Good luck with your first doming 💖

[@missymojo]

This was a great video on doming! Thank you!😊

[@susanhank]

great video, you make it easy to understand and heaps of tips.

[@JelitaAndini]

This is helpful. Thankfully now I following the steps, after a year having a resin job thru diy 😅 except for latex/pva glue protection bcs I don’t have. I use isopropyl alcohol to clean the edge. But the rice surface is brilliant! I never had a thought even a little abt that So thanks! 🤘🏼

[@michellebare5972]

Thank you 💖

[@kyflymusic]

I love this so much! Seriously, liquid latex has saved so many of my pieces and it’s true that there will be some pieces that always spill on a certain area. For charms I do with a mica powdered dome, I actually add a second clear layer to make it that much more glossy!

[@SeriouslyCreative]

Ohhh thats a nice idea! I love using mica powder dome on the back of pieces, I've never thought about adding an extra clear layer though!

[@pinkyhc4130]

I love your content. I've ordered Halloween styled silicone molds to try some stuff out! Thanks for all the great education 🙂🧡

[@annettejamieson4489]

Thank you I’m off to get some PVA glue 👍

[@veroniquecagle4296]

Very informative video, thank you. I am wondering can I use the pva glue on the side of a piece that’s not yet been resined? Just in case drips do form from coating the first side with resin. I’ll be working on a painted wooden piece.

[@SeriouslyCreative]

You can give it a try! Whenever i use wood i would use painters tape to protect, i just find it a bit easier

[@jennifermarie1230]

What if you dome and dont want anything dripping down the sides? For instance I am trying to put resin on top of a side table and I don't want dripping down the sides. Should I put liquid latex around the edge(rim) of the table?

[@charholmes6760]

Thank you! This tutorial was really helpful! How do you dome a resin earring that already has the hole pierced through? The resin often spills through the hole and onto the silicone mat :(

[@SeriouslyCreative]

You're welcome thanks for watching 😊 this can be tricky, you just have to let the resin thicken enough that the doming seal doesn't break and leak. A few of my keychains have holes already, you just have to be really careful.

[@knusprigeschuhsohle7939]

Great tutorial, thank you! Do you also protect the sides of the piece with glue? Doesnt overspill run down the sides and stick to the sides even if the front is protected?

[@SeriouslyCreative]

Thank you! I don't protect the sides, for some reason I've never had issues with the resin sticking to the sides? It will usually just run to the front

[@bettyclaggett2011]

Where can find the mold you got in your video on KZbin?

[@wendyjulianaarroyocanahui5233]

Me gusta los llaveros

[@MariaRivera-rl9wj]

Do you have to dome both sides?

[@bdbear10]

I tried making shakers a few years back. I kept having trouble putting the first layer of resin on over the plastic "top" and with the mineral oil leaking a bit from the hole or edges. It got me very frustrated! You make it look very easy in comparison!

[@SeriouslyCreative]

Making shakers is indeed very frustrating sometimes. I still ruin some of mine. I will hopefully be working on an updated shaker tutorial soon 💖 but thank you for watching 😊

[@craftyqueen7880]

In which resin ur doming

[@misstricksmix]

Nice

[@SeriouslyCreative]

💖😊

[@sarahrutgers4043]

How/where can I buy that exact mat?

[@jennifermarie1230]

Cant you put the latex on the sides or edge so it doesn't drip

[@carolp251]

if you dont mind me asking, where can I purchase the star mold that you show on time 4:36?

[@SeriouslyCreative]

Its in the description 💖

[@mamabtinytreasures]

Question for anyone. If I dome one side how can I be sure when I turn it over it is level? Won’t the side that is domed possibly be uneven?

[@SeriouslyCreative]

An uneven dome will cause overspill. If you do it properly, once turned over, it will be even.

[@michellemitchell1493]

Which resin from Justresin did you use. The links don’t work for me.

[@Monikas_Handmade_Compendium]

Hi. Great information. Thank you. Good to know about the protection of the opposite side with glue. Do you think Mod Podge glue would work instead of PVA and latex glue. Just getting back into resin making again and love to protect when doming. Always struggled with the back drips. I’m glad you made this video I’m excited to try. 😀💜🙏

[@FansyBLK]

Mod podge works 100%

[@SeriouslyCreative]

I think mid podge is the same/similar to pva 😊

[@Monikas_Handmade_Compendium]

@@FansyBLK Thank you 🙏. Will try.

[@Monikas_Handmade_Compendium]

@@SeriouslyCreative Thank you 🙏 Will give it a go. Thank you for replying 😀💜🙏

[@kaytaylor2365]

What is PVA glue?

[@jericahull7001]

Where do you get the little heart shaped silver pieces you glue on for the keychains?? I am obsessed!! ❤️

[@SeriouslyCreative]

Ebay 😊 they're called bails

[@ClayBum]

Awesome! Tho I wonder how about the sides? Don’t it drip? Do you put glue on the sides too? Sorry for the newbie question I’m just curious.

[@SeriouslyCreative]

That's ok! No the resin seems to just run to the front. If you're worried feel free to use the glue on the sides too 😊

[@ClayBum]

@@SeriouslyCreative i see. Thank you so much for answering! Your works are amazing! You’re amazing!

[@awatt6088]

Do you have a mixing tutorial for those using epoxy instead of uv resin?

[@SeriouslyCreative]

I use epoxy resin! Unfortunately I do not have a tutorial, my reducing bubble video is probably the closest one I have to a mixing tutorial 😊

[@brabrabra2139]

when im doming theres like a oil or something on it and then ended up its not smooth and perfect… bc theres oil blemish on it 🥺

[@PebbleProductionz]

Ive been having some trouble with my doming :( i either add too much or too little, ive been having a hard time trying to figure out what the right level is 😅

[@SeriouslyCreative]

Doming is the hardest part of doing resin in my opinion! you will find something that works for you 😊

[@kailanicapelouto2686]

What brand of resin do you recommend for doming?

[@SeriouslyCreative]

I love Just Resin 😊 there's a discount code on my instagram if you want to try it

[@jordymcginnis1181]

Can you use uv resin to do this?

[@SeriouslyCreative]

If you like, its not my preference though. I feel like uv resin doesn't cure as hard

[@BeatitudeSoul]

Hi! Great video. May I have the name of the metal finding that you attached at the top?

[@karenmclaughlan9128]

Metal bail

[@karenmclaughlan9128]

Or keyring bail

[@BeatitudeSoul]

Thank you!

[@nicolecodegirl]

There’s only big bottles of liquid latex online

[@PsychoMantisss]

I dome with UV resin, that way I don’t have to worry about dust getting in the piece.

[@SeriouslyCreative]

What brand do you use? All the UV resin I've used i hate lol
