[@olliesartspace]

i love the mylar pieces added and the tip to tap the mold on the counter to remove bubbles !

[@IAmMe1910]

Thank you for posting. I just got my kit and will be trying resin for the first time.

[@SuperBrowndog1]

I love the pink glittery, fancy look of these keychains. They would make beautiful purse charms. Thank you for the ideas.

I just bought this mold so I'm so excited that you did this video!!

[@FlynnSistersBoutique]

Awesome! Thank you for watching ☺️

[@stephaniedial5336]

Great tutorial. Your explanation on making sure the eyelet loop doesn't break off while screwing it in makes perfect sense, especially if you are experienced with breaking them off when screwing them in, like I am! LOL!

[@dawnprater4102]

I always use a power drill with a tiny drill bit and a little super glue...this looks way easier! Thank you!

[@FlynnSistersBoutique]

thank you :-)

[@brittanysinclair932]

Thank you so much for the tip on epoxying the top of the keychain after the epoxy in the mold had cure for a smooth top! I made a bangle and totally never thought about doing that. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

Pretty alphabet keychains!! I wasn't succesful getting the eye screw in and the hole I drilled was tiny but a bit too large. I plan on filling it in with resin and insert the screw.

[@sianeewilliam821]

When do you screw the eye hooks in? Mine keep cracking a few hours after screwing in the hooks /: I don't know what I'm doing wrong

[@FlynnSistersBoutique]

The epoxy is cracking? What kind of epoxy are you using and how thick are you pouring

[@janclimo2284]

Merry Christmas!! 🎄🎄🎄

[@joseyfetters985]

There is some molds that have the holes pre made to make it a keychain

[@FlynnSistersBoutique]

Cool! I didn’t have those when I filmed this years ago.

[@craftersepoxy8884]

Amazing! Beautiful work

[@FlynnSistersBoutique]

So glad you enjoyed it 🤩🙌

[@joanngarcia7498]

I have 1 to 1 ratio resin and I don't know how resin and how much hardener to put in separate cups

[@FlynnSistersBoutique]

Equal parts. Example, if you put 10ml of part a in one measuring cup you put 10ml of part b in the other and then mix them together. Equal parts of a and b.

[@Thecraftergirlboutique1]

How do you clean the molds

[@FlynnSistersBoutique]

Play doh works well to remove glitter. You can use tape also.

[@pgreene62]

Thank you, love making theses and giving to First Responders . Great Job. Can you also do a video in cleaning supplies.🌹

[@AddictedNCali]

Love how these turned out! I think my eyelet screws might be too big, all my letters have split. Merry Christmas

[@maryrominger9224]

Do you use a different color eye screw and jump ring with different colored key rings?

[@wistlindixie]

Great video! Merry Christmas

[@joseyfetters985]

Does resin need special glitter or can you use regular store bought glitter??

[@FlynnSistersBoutique]

Store bought is fine!

[@yuselinmartin3502]

Omg loved the torch idea to make the hole on the key chain I struggle a bit with the hand drill

[@yvettecastaneda704]

So cute! Love it! Every video you make I always learn something new. Merry Christmas to you and your family!😊🎄❤

[@katrinasmall4172]

I'm new at resin crafts. I make really nice pieces I use uv resin and it seems like some of my molds come out sticky. I let it sit u see the light for about 1- 2 minutes but they continue to be sticky sometimes not completely dry in a small spot. What am I doing wrong🤷🤷? Help ...🙏🙏

[@FlynnSistersBoutique]

Some UV resin can’t be poured that thick. Try a higher watt lamp and do it by thinner layers. Also, even with a good lamp and the best UV resin, 3-5 mins for the final cure is a pretty standard time for me

[@leticianakamura533]

MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎅 🎄 ❤

[@sabrinacaldwell696]

Do you wear a respirator when you do small little projects like this?

[@FlynnSistersBoutique]

I use PPE any time i work with epoxy

[@FlynnSistersBoutique]

Thank you! You too!

[@AzDesertSkyApparel]

So I just started doing these, my problem is, I can get the bubbles at the surface. But I can’t get the bubbles towards in the middle of the resin. How do I get all the bubbles out? I’ve used a heat gun and a lighter, the middle bubbles just won’t come out. What do you recommend?

[@FlynnSistersBoutique]

Warm your epoxy well before mixing. That will help prevent bubbles. Using a metal stir stir vs wood. Mix slowly. Wait a bit before you pore to allow any bubble to rise to the surface and pop.

[@AzDesertSkyApparel]

@@FlynnSistersBoutique I will try that! Thank you 😊

[@monicafrance5150]

I tried diy epoxy and I'm totally hooked! Have you tried the new fast set or are you planning on trying it?

[@FlynnSistersBoutique]

yes, my video on the 30th will feature it! I love it!

[@monicafrance5150]

@@FlynnSistersBoutique I've heard good things! I think I'll get some!

[@mojoTx]

Get a small torch you have more control of the heat go look at my dominoes short I did to demonstrate taking out the bubbles with a torch

[@FlynnSistersBoutique]

Torches can damage the silicone molds. I use alcohol on these to prevent bubbles and avoid damage. I use a propane torch when not working with silicone.

[@iqrabandukra6240]

My letters keep cracking where the eyelet screw is. What am I doing wrong?

[@FlynnSistersBoutique]

are you heating up the eyelet screw first?? what kind of epoxy are you using?

[@iqrabandukra6240]

@@FlynnSistersBoutique no I've been using a drill then putting in the eyelet screws

[@megandeaven3529]

Where can I find the link for the materials?

[@FlynnSistersBoutique]

All my materials are linked in the videos description box

[@marissajovel3331]

would using a heat gun be fine instead of a blow torch ?

[@FlynnSistersBoutique]

yeah that'll work. you just can't keep the heat on it for too long

[@teachmrshh6169]

I don’t understand the doming part with clear epoxy. Are you just filling it in? Love your videos! Thank you!

[@FlynnSistersBoutique]

That is correct. so the back won't be completely smooth like the front is so the doming just smooths out the back for a more professional finish. thanks for watching!

[@Tru_Virgo]

I’ve seen this type of spoon stick being used. What is the name of it so I can use one? I heard it works better with mica powders and glitters?

[@sunshineschroderwfigsage8409]

Merry Christmas!!!!

[@mducre1431]

Why did you spray with the 91 percent alcohol ?

[@emilymontecalvo9068]

does the resin have to cure at any specific temperature?

[@FlynnSistersBoutique]

most have a temp range that they prefer. You'll want to reference your epoxy's data sheet for that info. Usually it's between 70-75 degrees

[@sheilasisk2029]

So cute!

[@claudialopez1493]

I'm new to this the only epoxy I have is the amazing clear cast part A AND B so would it be hard and half ?

[@FlynnSistersBoutique]

that is correct. Half B and Half A. Add side B to your measuring cup first then add equal amount of side A and mix until totally clear

[@kchar2199]

What is the name of the stuff you put on the keychain

[@FlynnSistersBoutique]

Resin?

[@lucimara3479]

Oi, parabéns pelo trabalho. Qual o nome do equipamento que você usou para acabamento? É um bisturi? Beijos

[@FlynnSistersBoutique]

Thank you. I'm not sure sure what equipment you are asking for. I used a blade to clean my edges and pliers to attach my harware. All of my materials are linked in the description box of my tutorial.

[@laurenvazquez5458]

Can you use a heat gun instead of a torch to pop the bubbles?

[@FlynnSistersBoutique]

yes, just don't apply too much heat.

[@maryrominger9224]

What size screw eye pins/ jump rings are you using for your Alphabet keychains. The link doesn't go through. Also do you match it to your key ring or are you just using silver? Thank you!!

[@vanessasummers8549]

Merry Christmas to you

[@lauraandrews8072]

Thanks for the tut. Question: you suggested to mix 20 ml...but you had lots left after doing the J...do you know how many letters you can do with 20mL? And can you use uv resin to dome coat the letter. Just making the finishing process quicker? Will the two resins hold together? How much would you sell this keychain for? Thanks so much.

[@FlynnSistersBoutique]

I do not know the exact measurement but you can test that by measuring water in there first and measuring the water. I mixed 20 to be on the safe side. You can use fast set for the finishing and it will bond fine to the regular. I don’t know how much I’d sell this for but I’d maybe check prices with similar products on Etsy and go from there

[@lauraandrews8072]

@@FlynnSistersBoutique Thank you...appreciate the great reply. HUGS

[@stunningshorts6420]

Do we need to add hardener in resin first ?

[@FlynnSistersBoutique]

This epoxy requires that you mix equal parts of the resin and hardener. Typically you’ll pour the thicker viscosity part into the thinner one so it’s easier to mix but you can mix it however you want to

[@Sageyoursoul]

Helpful! 🙏🏻

[@efyacutie9436]

Which epoxy did u buy from the alumilite.please

Hii. I’m new to the epoxy world and was wondering how long did you let the epoxy with glitter rest in the cup before pouring? All your videos are so professional and freakn amazing!

[@FlynnSistersBoutique]

I set a timer for 5 minutes usually. thanks!

[@jenniemariereads]

Merry Christmas to y’all!🎄🎅🏼 Yep totally used the crappy hardware that came in the kit, and I had 3 pieces break off in my letters.😂 Love the doming technique! I always feel like the back on my letters look so drab compared to the front. How long did you mix your epoxy for, I noticed you didn’t really have any bubbles?
