Your planter turned out great!! Thank you for being so helpful and honest while you were working. I found out when working with resin I use 2 sets of gloves because of the mess it causes 😂 if I start getting sticky I can pull one set off and still have the other set on. Thank you again for your advice and beautiful planter

[@danarae-llcCRAFT]

Thank You 😊! I have never thought about putting on two sets of gloves! I am going to use that, because it really would have come in handy when I had my run over! Thank You again

[@redshedacres]

Thank you for pointing out some of the things that can go wrong. If you were perfect I would not know as much as I do now thanks to you. I always tell people when they seem upset about making mistakes that, that is how we learn. We have to make mistakes in life to learn to be humble and forgiving of ourselves and others. Vital for humans to learn to get along. Whoa, that sounded preachy. I love your project.

[@danarae-llcCRAFT]

Nooo not preachy at all! I thank you for your comments, they all help me grow and to do better next time. You have to crawl before you walk and during our walking we still stumble. I just always stay grounded and be myself!

Thank you for your comment and watching the video😊

[@bruce-le-smith]

thanks, this was great! the balloon looked like it had a smiley face at 5:45 because of the lights 0__0 p.s I bet Da Vinci didn't paint the mona lisa perfectly the first time, thanks for showing your creative process that's a big inspiration. better to just jump in and create and if at the end you think, 'huh I could do that better' then just do it again!

[@danarae-llcCRAFT]

Thank you so much for your words of encouragement! I will have to look back at the smiley face 😊. Yep sometimes you just have to go for it!

[@danarae-llcCRAFT]

Sorry if you’re getting this twice! Thank you for your encouragement! I will have to look back at the smiley face 😊. Yes sometimes you do have to just jump in and go for it!

[@lorrainea4185]

[@danarae-llcCRAFT]

Thank you so much for your encouragement and enjoying the video.

[@bethpeerenboom8316]

Looks nice ! I also watched Louise Singleton Creations first before your channel and learned alot of things that can happen. I think Total Boat tabletop resin that I'm going to use is thicker so we'll see. Crossing my fingers...Live and learn...

[@danarae-llcCRAFT]

Thank You for watching and YES go for it, have fun, and yes Live and Learn!

[@queencoker3179]

So pretty, I'd like to see it with a light in it, or it over a light...maybe one of those fake candles

[@danarae-llcCRAFT]

Thank You! I am going to be giving an update on how it has lasted and add a couple pictures, including with some lights.

Esta hermosa para una lampara colgante.

[@danarae-llcCRAFT]

Thank You! I am testing it out in different temps, to see how it holds up. You are the second person to express a hanging lamp!

[@s.714]

New subscriber here. I. LOVE.THIS! Going to have to try this now. Thanks for the inspiration.✌️ Would also make an awesome pendant light .. no?

[@danarae-llcCRAFT]

Thank You! Yes it would be a nice light, my wheels are always spinning when it comes to resin.

[@danarae-llcCRAFT]

I have been testing this one in different seasonal temps to see how it holds up. I will make another down the road with a closed bottom.

[@davedavem]

You're amazing! Keep up the good work! 🙌

[@danarae-llcCRAFT]

Thank You So Very Much!

[@carolwalters6469]

I love this! I just came across your channel and you have a new subscriber now. I loved your explanation of this planter and showed the issues that can happen. I've been wanting to try this for awhile but it always seemed so complicated. Your video was great!

[@danarae-llcCRAFT]

Thank You 🙏! I really appreciate your comment ♥️!

[@lindae7013]

It came out very nice, but I would say your issue was not the type of resin but the length of time . I’m familiar with the Ks resin and the setting time varies I’ve found. I would totally use this bowl for a dining room table. Great experiment with a good ending. 🫶🏽

[@danarae-llcCRAFT]

Thank you for your comment, when you say length of time, are you saying I should let it sit a little longer before trying to peel the balloon off? Thank you for the tips, I appreciate it!

[@lindae7013]

@@danarae-llcCRAFT , yes, if you’re sure your measurements of resin weren’t off then it’s entirely possible that it needed more than 12 hours for good measure I usually do 24 hours. I know it’s difficult to wait, I’m the same lol, but better to be safe than sorry. Sometimes if it’s not too messed up you can sand down the imperfections and cover with uv resin!

[@danarae-llcCRAFT]

@@lindae7013 Thank you, I do get impatient and excited and can’t wait for the next step! BUT I’m learning. Thank you again 🙏

This is so cute. I am a new subscriber and looking forward to your creations. ❤❤❤

[@danarae-llcCRAFT]

Thank You so happy you enjoyed it, my wheels are always turning I am working on a new project. I hope you will enjoy!

[@cmack3625]

next time torch the baloon off, or use an exacto knife with one quick stroke so when it contracts it does not have a chance to pull the resin out of shape. Alternately, leave the baloon in place, then at the end cut through the resin and all coats. Baloon, use a clear one, will not shrink in theory, because it has so much resin inside and out. Love the baloon idea, thanks, great video!

[@danarae-llcCRAFT]

Thank you so much for the comments, your advice is great, and I will definitely be using it. It was a crazy first time and I know there was a better way to get that balloon off! Thank you again for your comments and help so when I try to do it again it will go a little smoother!

[@makemesing714]

I wonder if this could be done with a blown up latex glove?

[@danarae-llcCRAFT]

I bet you could, the balloon is latex also, just a different shape! Good luck, I’m sure it will be beautiful!

[@fuzznickers]

You are so patient, I think I would have given up as soon as the balloon started squishing it. This turned out amazing!

[@danarae-llcCRAFT]

Thank You! I had my moments of “What are you doing Dana!” But I kept on pushing, Thank You again for watching!

[@emiliorodriguez70]

Really really awesome. I’ve used Epoxy in the past and it can be hard to work with especially against gravity.

[@danarae-llcCRAFT]

Thank You, yes it is very hard to work with and I am ALWAYS learning. But it’s also an amazing product to work with!

[@lonnibaird8018]

That is beautiful!!! I'm not familiar with the terms you were using regarding what kind of resin you were using, and don't know what you mean by lickety split, but i love the finished project. The colours are so pretty! TFS 😊

[@danarae-llcCRAFT]

Thank You! Liquidy Split is a type of resin by the company KSRESIN. It has a faster curing time, instead of waiting 24 hours hardening, it cures in 6 hours. Making it easier if you want to add decal or other decorations. Thank you for your comment.

[@TheArtRoom68]

I tried the same experiment and each time the balloon exploded. Is the reason the quality of the balloon, or is there something else? Note that I used crystal resin. and I used baby oil iinsted of the craft mold release

[@danarae-llcCRAFT]

Thank You! That is very interesting, I hope you didn’t get any resin on you. I have never used baby oil. My balloon came from the local dollar store. Not sure why it would explode, just be careful and I also have never used Crystal Resin. I’m learning everyday. Don’t give up, maybe you can contact your resin supplier and ask.

[@babujaan18]

Hello from mumbai, india. Just came across this video. Very interesting concept will definitely try. May i ask how much resin you used for a balloon that size?? Thank you.

[@danarae-llcCRAFT]

Hi, so my resin is a two part resin. So it really depends on how big you make your balloon. I used a half cup for each part. Hope this helps!

[@babujaan18]

@@danarae-llcCRAFT thank you for your reply. Will definitely give it some shot. Have a nice day.

[@mpv9866]

Good video, looking forward to trying this project! Did you do anything special to create a flat bottom for the bowl? (Sorry, if it was in the video and i didnt see it.... the video kept pausing while audio kept going 🤔)

[@danarae-llcCRAFT]

In the video I would flip the balloon every 10 to 15 minutes to coat the inside. There will come a time, probably a hour later after the flipping of the balloon you will notice the resin starting to settle on the sides and flipping it is no longer useful because the inside is pretty well coated. So when you sit the ballon on your choice of stand (I used a tap roll with a pad on-top) so the resin can cure. All the resin that doesn’t settle on the sides will settle on the bottom. Make sure when you sit it to cure you place the bottom side where the balloon tie is. I hope this helps. Thank You for watching. Any questions are welcome.

[@Tom_Samad]

Do you use a pressure pot to get rid of bubbles?

[@danarae-llcCRAFT]

I have not had the pleasure of using one YET. I have watched several videos on them but haven’t made that jump to get one yet.

[@VelserHerrie]

Awesome Ben! Question for you and other experts, what filters you recommend for the half mask/respirator?

[@danarae-llcCRAFT]

Thank You! I have attached a link to the respirator that I use, with filter info. This mask is also available at Menards if you see the weight, ask more questions, and all that good stuff. Hope this helped. Amazon: amzn.to/3FDyUZW

ive been doing a mosaic, and worked iwth resin a lot in the past.. id say buy. huge box of surgical or food service gloves and WEAR THEM EVERY TIME YOU WORK ON SOMETHING POTENTIALLY MESSY. esp resin. my hands look like horrible man hands becuase imalways cleaining off glue and paint and grout... protect yourself !

[@danarae-llcCRAFT]

Thank You, yes I have learned to invest in so many gloves now! They are a life saver!

[@Brightsupernova]

You can put x marks on your table to make sure you’re on camera! And definitely don’t put the warning thing again, lots of us watch these videos to relax, not to have a panic attack. I hate to be that person lol but if you do a softer voice, make the experience soothing, and you’ll get a lot of traffic

[@danarae-llcCRAFT]

Thank you for your feedback it is very helpful, thank you again for watching!

I agree I watch these vids at bedtime n I jumped with the loud noise n I thought something on my phone went wrong. It was really loud.
