Oh my gosh! I love, love, love them all❤ Have you ever made a suncatcher/chime using a large coaster on top and smaller on the bottom with tubes for sound. I think these pieces would ve so cool for that!❤❤❤

[@katheejacobs]

I really like these, they're very beautiful. I think I liked the one with the mica powder 😊

[@teaandart]

Thank you so much 💓 💗 💛

[@lwebester8551]

I Coloured the UV with the ink, not a lot, just a little, and I used clear silicone mold, hit it with a lamp, then epoxy coloured resin on top looked really awesome

[@teaandart]

Thankyou so much for your brilliant Idea will do that. for this particular one I wanted to have that coloured lines around the drops although it I got what I wanted but my mold got sacrificed lol .

[@fairyspunfibers9098]

It's the Polka Dot Effect! 😊❤

[@teaandart]

That's right! In my mid I had no name but love all the name coming for them now 😀😀

[@jerrycallender9352]

Greetings from Tucson, Arizona.. All are great - reminds me of the circus - think my fave is the one with the opal/pearl white background.

[@colleenbudde2366]

Pretty ❤

Thank you so much ❤️

[@beccajane9939]

My favourite was the big one 😍

[@teaandart]

Thank you so much 💓 💗 Its almost every ones favourite 😍 ❤️

[@Oonagh72]

You should try pouring colored resin around the drops, like half way up. Let that cure. Next color the raindrops with whatever and then pour another layer of whatever resin you choose. Just to see if it creates more depth. Or different depth.

[@teaandart]

Hi Oonagh I actually thought about this to try definitely on my list so many ideas are generating would really love to give it a go m Thank you so much for your useful words.

[@epoxym3that]

First of all, thx for your videos and sharing new ideas. At first I was like eeehhh nah and then you added the top coat to the biggest mold and OMG it is beautiful!!! My favorite is the one in the biggest mold.

[@teaandart]

Your very welcome sometimes I do wonder what I making until the last minute. I am glad you liked it .Experiments are sometime hit and sometimes miss 😊😊💗💗💗💗.Thank you for your kind words 🙏 😊 💕

[@sheilawolfe722]

What a fun look! I have been thinking,and I wonder what these raindrop techniques would look like if you top-coated them with UV resin just on the spots. I would love to see you try that. Keep up the good work!

[@mookzmom]

Great idea! I bet they'd look even more realistic!

[@teaandart]

Thank you so much Sheila now I am wondering too a must have to try now 😀. Will do it soon and share results. Thank you for watching 💗💗💗

[@teaandart]

You are so welcome! Thank you for watching just a tip please use a coaster that is not expensive as some time alcohol inks leave there marks. It do not effect the projects but mold get stained. ♥️

[@jofish420]

@@teaandart I did the one with the chameleon powder. It came out awesome! Now I need to just do a top coat. 🥰

[@carolstewart1704]

I am happy to see someone has stepped up this raindrop technique! I don't know if everyone thought that the technique was a new one?? 😅 It's been around for ages! 🤭 But I see lots of ppl doing it again! 🤷 So I was very excited that you came up with something new to add to it! 🥰 I love these! I think they look like colorful stained glass cobblestones!! 🤩💕 Beautiful!! Tysm for showing us!!

[@teaandart]

Hi Carol I think the reason why it got much viral is because how easy it is . I actually shared it in resin beginner's group so everyone there are new to resin world . The fact that everyone can make this and it will turn out same 100% results. Thank you so much for your kind appreciation I am trying to take this technique with different elements. 💗😊💗😊💗😊

[@BogArt1]

Adorable, I hope the inks didn’t hurt the mold.

I brushed on mica after drops were cured, then poured clear resin over them, but turned out flat looking!

Hi Are you taking about when you demold them they are flat if you like you can send the pictures on my Instagram so I can see the issue. @teaandart_14

[@juliechambers1037]

I LOVE the raindrop effect, I've had a go myself today, will have to wait until tomorrow to see if they have worked, can't wait to demould them 🥰 thank you sooo much for the fabulous idea x

[@miriamluskberry]

I love them all! I have a question about the top coat. Do you place it back in the mold with the top on top to apply the resin?

[@teaandart]

Thank you so much ☺️ no I just top coat it with out placing in mold.

@@teaandart Thank you!

Name this style, "Taste the Rainbow." They remind me of Skittles!!!! That is the catch phrase for the skittles candy…

Thats a brilliant name actually taste the rainbow I can so see it now 😀 😊

[@ZippedUpKitz]

@@teaandart glad you like it :)

[@kathydee76]

To prevent ruining molds could you do a thin layer of resin ( letting it cure) then add the raindrops and continue. Yes it’s a long process but would this prevent damage to molds from the alcohol inks

[@resinartbycatherine6314]

I'm absolutely loving this technique! 🤗 Thank you for sharing 🙌 I am most definitely going to try this specific technique and tag you on Instagram!😉💓

Thank you so much yes DIY sort of thing ☺️☺️☺️

[@janicehoch3218]

They remind me of a day at the circus.

[@teaandart]

O wow definitely that vibe lovely feedback. Thank you for watching 💗😊

[@ZippedUpKitz]

Also, I’m thinking if you were to use a translucent mold instead of a colored mold with the uv resin, you might not ruin the mold… im Thinking that the heat of the uv lamp and the prolonged time needed to cure the uv resin on the colored mold is what caused the accidental ruined mold… that would be my guess… I do think they turned out really neat though! I will try this tomorrow and see how it works… I have a trashed translucent coaster mold that to can use to see if duplicating your actions sans the colored mold, yields the same results on the translucent mold…

[@carolstewart1704]

The alcohol inks dye the molds 🥰 but they shouldn't transfer to new pieces so the mold is still ok to use😊 the only problem of the non translucent mold and the uv resin, is that the uv resin has a difficult time curing bc it cannot be touched all over with the uv light (if that makes sense? 😅) If it was a clear mold she could cure fm the bottom of the mold as well and they would've cured better.. I have also noticed.. even when I use a clear mold and cure dots of uv resin and then do a pour of epoxy, sometimes the uv resin gets soft (seemingly uncured) again.. so I try to use only clear molds so that once the epoxy is cured I can put the uv light on it again before demolding just to be sure everything is good to go! 🤗💕 Hopefully that has helped someone!! 🥰🥰

[@ZippedUpKitz]

@@carolstewart1704 yes, when I do uv resin I always hit it with the light again after I demold just to make sure the light gets everywhere… that was the problem the lady at pouring your heart out had… she didn’t cure the uv resin all the way through… she used a so,I’d mold and so the light didn’t get all the way through and when she poured the epoxy over the dots, the bottoms of the coasters dots were not fully cured of epoxy over them all-and instead of hitting he dots with the uv light, she just put a top coat over them all… uv resin is tricky and it has a steep learning curve to get it to cure correctly… it also had to do with what uv resin you are using…

[@carolstewart1704]

@@ZippedUpKitz I was talking about using a clear mold and hitting it with uv light again after the epoxy had cured but before demolding 😊💕 and yep, everything u said makes sense too 🥰

[@catmandoo956]

What do you mean by a top coat? Just a thin layer of resin in the mold?

Hi I top coat them mean adding a final layer of resin on top of my coasters.

[@catmandoo956]

@@teaandart I thought you were talking about a way to keep the inks from staining the mold.

You could color the UV resin with alcohol inks in individual little pots and then apply the drops.
