Egads, I'm speechless! Enjoyed this so very much, especially the little surprise at the end! I agree with Becky. The Northern lights would be an excellent one to do, if you're feeling like it.

I know what you mean! it's fun to find a new perspective on resin!

[@soulkandi679]

@@ResinAsYouWish it so is! I am enjoying my artistic side more than ever before. I just did my first ever Z Gallery inspired painting I have wanted to do my entire life and never felt capable, and a lady on KZbin made me think I could do it. I am in awe of myself lol. The resin and how it goes into so many other mediums is amazing. I am excited to try what you showed, I need to watch again to take notes, lol, the phosphorescent green is out of stock as are any good whites that i have been searching for. Lol. I spoke with one dealer who has a good one and hope to order a new white next week. Your ways are different tho, and I will try your techniques first! I am sooo excited. Thanks for sharing and replying!

[@WinterberryStudio]

Gorgeous work wow love it!! I noticed this was posted 2 years ago will you be continuing to create more?

[@margaretperry2015]

That’s just fantastic! Too much work for just a coaster, though, I’d have to be doing a tray or a wood round!

[@ResinAsYouWish]

I do the coasters for the KZbin videos, You can zoom in and focus easier. I have quite a few 18 inch trays in my shop. I love the work that goes into the resin :-)

[@ashleechan22]

There are much quicker ways to doing this. The perosn just did multiple layers to make it look more realistic.

[@firstkay]

hi simply stunning! when you put the top coat over the sanded piece how do you keep the back clean do you tape? thank you

[@caronstone4226]

WOW... NEXT LEVEL WAVES . Christy you take these waves to the next level!! So many tutorials on waves but yours come out so beautiful and it’s definitely because you take the time and do all your projects over days and not rush to get done in one sitting. And your craftsmanship shows in EVERY project you post! I’m a huge fan of all you do. 😘❤️?.. is anything on the q-tip like silicone oil or alcohol to stop the resin from going over those waves or is it slightly tilted?

[@ResinAsYouWish]

It's just a plain ole q-tip - I didn't have the coaster tilted, but there have been times when I used too much resin on this layer an😍d I had to tilt it because it all wanted to sink to the beach 😜 NOTE: I have gotten q-tip hair stuck in the waves before because I let the resin set up too long before I defined the wave - if that happens, use your finger and a napkin or spatula - as long as the resin is soft you can draw out the wave if it goes down too far. Thank you for all your encouragement and kind words! I love doing these but am still new to KZbin, the comments are really helpful!

[@caronstone4226]

Resin As You Wish I too am new to watching you tube and resin and love both. It’s fun doing some of your projects and some of my own my husband is just watching all this resin art with no place to go😂 I’m giving most away for birthday gifts etc but my grandchildren really love the galaxy look and glow part! Haven’t tried the beach wave yet but will thanks for the tip!

[@madeleinefloyd2956]

Sooo pretty, I'm very happy I found you! Where are your instructions? I want to practice what you do. Thanks!!!

[@janisbaker5873]

This is magnificent! With all the different steps you must have used a lot of resin! Was there a lot of unused left over each day?

[@ResinAsYouWish]

No, typically I’m making more than one at a time, but only show one or two, any excess resin I use to start the base layers in coaster molds

[@ginafeddersen8200]

Turned out really beautiful! 🌟😊🌟Dont understand why there are so many layers of resin😊

[@ResinAsYouWish]

Gina Feddersen the layers do two things for me 1. Gives me more control of the design 2. The more layers I do the better the 3D effect and I’m totally obsessed with the 3D effect 😍👍

[@mookzmom]

YES! OMG, I know I can't even see all of the effect on the video here, either, but you gave us a peek of how it should be. I love your layering.

Love your use of colours and depth. Could i ask what heat gun you used? If its a craft one or a paint stripper type thing. Agian, love your art.

[@ResinAsYouWish]

Hi thank you for the compliment,! My heat gun is from hardware store, I linked it at the bottom of the comments in this video if you want to look at the specs on it. I chose it because it had attachments and a bunch of different nozzles for the end to choose from

[@teresabunce6741]

Love your work, could you please show the products as you use them for a little longer, it would help the hard of sight a lot x x

[@ResinAsYouWish]

Ok, I do list everything I use in the comments along with a link to the item so you can see exactly what was used. Are you talking about the colors specifically?

[@teresabunce6741]

My omission, did not probe far enough, I was just aware that I kept trying to pause when you show the product (impossible, lol) xxx Thank you for sharing x

[@emily-fg9wt]

I love it! How do you keep the resin... day one and 2 you use so little I wouldn’t even begin to figure out the ratio since the amount it so small ... thanks

[@ResinAsYouWish]

Hi, it is definitely a challenge getting used to the ratios, typically I"m only filming one, but am actually doing 2 or 3, I also will use any excess resin to make a base layer in coaster molds for upcoming projects

[@conniefox8853]

@@ResinAsYouWish Thank you for only filming one - it makes it much easier to watch. So many people do 4-6 coasters at a time and I am constantly fast forwarding :-) Beautiful work by the way!

[@mykeechu]

I'm a new fan, but I really love your work! 💕 Your layering is awesome! 😊 Can I ask what the heat gun is that you use to blow the colors around? Is there an Amazon link where I could purchase one? Thank you! 🤗💖

Hi, I added a link to it in the comments (at the bottom) My gun is red and the red one is not in stock at the moment - but here is a green one -thank you for the compliments!

[@kelleyanderson3065]

Beautiful job!! May I ask how you put your logo/signature at the bottom? (I'm assuming that's what that was?!) Thank you in advance!! I have been doing paint pouring coasters and just did my first resin pours tonight - not sure how to sign them! Thanks!

[@ResinAsYouWish]

Hi. they are logo stickers I got on Etsy :-)

[@kelleyanderson3065]

That's what I was thinking they were! Thanks!

[@deboraition]

Its so beautifullllllll. Have you considered using real sand and checking how that turns out? Might be fun!

[@ResinAsYouWish]

I have tried it, and I didn't think it was ugly, but I just didn't care for how it looked - I may have been the color I chose but to me - it ended up looking like dirt in there LOL 😜 It was a while a go, I think I may check into some white sand 👍

[@deboraition]

@@ResinAsYouWish ive seen videos where the sand looks like dirt, so i definitely agree🤣some good quality sand goes a long way.

[@lindasnapp3453]

Are you using those acrylic paint for pigment in resin mix

[@ResinAsYouWish]

yes, it's acrylic paint

[@koconnell1444]

I would love to know the colors your using & how you mixed them...ty kathy fr Boston

[@ResinAsYouWish]

Hi, the video description has the entire list and links to everything I use in the video - I use 3oz cups to mix the color, 1 oz of resin mixed with a dime size bead of the paints/colors. The amount of paint used to color the resin shouldn’t be more than 2% of the amount of resin in your color cup. If the color your mix ends up transparent- add more color, or if it ends up too thick add more resin… sometimes you have to play with it a little

[@emilyschiebel114]

Can you still make the waves without Castin Craft?

[@ResinAsYouWish]

Yes, I am just showing what I specifically use in this video

[@theallisonandmariahshow9419]

Can you add a link for the cork backing if you used one?

[@ResinAsYouWish]

I did use cord, but i bought a roll cut out a circle with my cricut and glued it to the back. I also use the bumpers on these - scotch, little clear knobs work really well too. I do have a link for the cork on the bottom of the standard size coasters if you are interested.

[@cbell3965]

I can't seem to get definition on my waves, after a few minutes it all merges into one 😔

[@babiicakez9443]

Mine does the exact same thing! I only used acyrlic paint in my resin tho not this white pigment shown in the video

[@dottiewilson3858]

What color can I use in place of cobalt turquoise? Amazon is out of that color. Thank you!

[@ResinAsYouWish]

Hi, any light teal color would work, dark blue, green, light turquoise, or even a medium blue

[@dottiewilson3858]

@@ResinAsYouWish Thank you so much!!!

[@ormondbeachchiropractic1595]

can you do this with uv resin and just cure each layer?

[@ResinAsYouWish]

I don’t work with UV resin, so I’m not sure how the resin would react to blowing heat. But you could definitely do layers. If you want it to be used as a coaster I do not recommend UV resin because it would get dull with use fairly quickly - it would be fine as art or trivet

[@ormondbeachchiropractic1595]

@@ResinAsYouWish Got it! thank you!! Which type of Resin do you reccomend?

[@ResinAsYouWish]

@@ormondbeachchiropractic1595 I add links to the resin I use in the video description, basically - Countertop Resin, equal parts mix, with UV and scratch resistance. These typically take 3 days to fully cure, but you can pick it up and touch it within 12-24 hours

[@jodyandmerlin2767]

Did you let it dry each time?????

[@ResinAsYouWish]

Yes, not a full cure, but hard enough to tap on

[@annettethomas2285]

How much resin do you use for each layer for the coasters

[@ResinAsYouWish]

Hi, I usually mix 6oz of resin to do 2 of these 5.5 inch coasters at once - this includes the colors I mix

[@annettethomas2285]

@@ResinAsYouWish Is that 6 oz Total and 2oz each layer.

[@dentongamble8150]

How much does one of these cost to make, and how much can you sell it for?

[@ResinAsYouWish]

Hi, the cost of the resin is probably the most expensive, I list all items used in the video - so once you have all the paints, and equipment, it's just down to the resin and the time it takes to make the coasters. The project takes about a week. I sell these on Etsy for $40 each (this is a large coaster)

[@dentongamble8150]

@@ResinAsYouWish Thank you! I actually just decided to do resin coasters for a kind of side hustle, and I love your videos.

[@ResinAsYouWish]

Send to me, I have a Facebook page Christy Fraser , and a facebook group Resin As You Wish. I do have a video with tips on Cells and Lacing, one of the standard things I was doing wrong when I first started was continuing to work the resin, the cells wont form if you keep messing with it.
