Definitely the egg but the diamond turned out really well too, at least on video

This is a very captivating video. I am not at all interested in resins, but I still found myself engrossed in this video. I loved watching your epoxy resin shenanigans.

Thank you! I find resin fascinating but also incredibly frustrating, haha! It's something I want to be better at, which is why I make occasional videos on the subject, lol. And totally fine if it's not your cup of tea. I appreciate you watching this one 😊

The egg!! The egg is the best one, at least that is what I think 😊.

Thanks Becky. I've only tried resin once when I was a kid (well technically my Dad tried it) as I got a kit for my birthday one year. We only tried it once and the very top layer of pendant didn't set well. It ended up with fingerprints all over it where we kept testing it to see if we could unmold it yet or not. Took weeks to finally cure fully. The rest of that kit solidified in the bottle and my parents bought me beads i could enjoy instead! 😂🤣

It is definitely one of those things that people make look easy but it's actually really difficult and finicky. If that ratio isn't exactly right, it ain't setting! 😂

Really nice creations! I like everything, but I love how the dragons and the egg came out. Gorgeous colors! Looking forward to seeing the chessboard and pieces.👍

Thank you! Hopefully I learn from my mistake with that first chess piece, haha!

Haha it was a bit long, this video! It always takes me forever to film resin projects. But I'm glad you enjoyed it. 🙂

Ooh i better check my resins. I got some for Christmas the last two years and haven’t tried them yet.

@dominiqueg.4403 4 ай бұрын

oh nooo! i also have left overs, it now yellow, but if i add opaque colors to it, it should do, but I wonder if it still hardens?

@BeckyTregear 4 ай бұрын

Ah yes, I think it tends to go yellow over time with bottles that have already been opened? Sealed ones probably will last much longer. I guess the only thing to do is to mix in some colours, and hope it sets! I think it would still set, but honestly my knowledge of resin in general is still quite limited. Fingers crossed for success!

Oh! I love your resin shenanigans! In my watch later list, but definitely looking forward to this!👍😊

Thank you! I'm just happy I have finally had some success with resin art, lol! 😂

I loved watching you do these! That egg certainly catches your eye, but I loved the little dragons too! you'll have to use the same powder that you used on the egg for the chess set, omg how stunning would that be!! Beautiful resin pieces Becky!! :D

@BeckyTregear 4 ай бұрын

Thank you, I'm very proud of these, haha! Chameleon chess pieces would look so awesome, but those flakes are driving me crazy so that may well be beyond my patience levels. 😂

These are so cute. Makes me want to watch Game of Thrones again! 😆 Have a great weekend, Becky!

Love having breakfast with you. Really interesting video but too fiddly for me 🤣

@BeckyTregear 4 ай бұрын

Resin is SO fiddly! Honestly the amount of failures I've had....lol. But I'm learning and improving with time and I was really happy with the dragons and egg! 😆

@dominiqueg.4403 4 ай бұрын

Nice job Becky, you have done well! I use to do resin myself, mostly coasters that i gave away as gifts, and small shells and crystals that i would include in polymer clay sculptures. I stopped making resin, cause is very expensive and soooo messy! But your video makes me want to make some more! Cant wait to see the chess game!

@BeckyTregear 4 ай бұрын

Thank you! I'm very glad to have been given an opportunity to try out some of their products, because yes resin gets very expensive! I have yet to make a good coaster, lol. I'll try to get this chess set done soon - I'm really hoping it turns out ok!

Your egg us beautiful and the blue dragon looks ok eith the gradient of clean to blue. With sticky moulds, you can use alcohol or acetone to clean them. acetone really breaks it down. In saying that sometimes the $5 mould isn't worth the effort. I've mentioned it before, I did a lot of resin work, when i was starting my art journey. I only stopped because it's so quick and yet very expensive. I moved to slower mediums, that i could work on over several days/weeks/months. I found with resin, each time I would used it, it would be $50-100 in product (both resin and the actual surfaces) and only 30 minutes of time/enjoyment. It's fun, but I went with slower mediums, which are also fun and much cheaper. Although I still have all my supplies, so technically it would now feel free. I don't really think it expires. I havent had issues. I bought mine in late 2020 or 2021 and it still is beautiful. I bought 10 liters so it would last. Maybe others have experienced issues with dates. I feel like they may also just want people to buy more product, so add used bys.

Thank you! I'll try using some alcohol as washing with soap and water didn't get very much off, lol. Resin making really is so expensive! It's also incredibly messy, lol. But I had a lot of fun with these, and that egg is my absolute favourite piece that I've ever made. I wondered about the expiry dates as surely the epoxy parts would be fine as long as they don't mix....but anyway, I guess I'll find out if I end up with any old resin in the future. 😊

Hi Becky - it looks like a lot of fun now that you know how it works. How did you 'clean out" the pouring cups??? Or is it one cup per pour??? I would like to see you make more... Jackie

@BeckyTregear 4 ай бұрын

The best way to clean out the silicone pouring cups is to let any leftover resin fully cure and set, then it can be peeled off quite easily. For standard plastic cups, I find that they're one use only and then they just have to be chucked out because that resin ain't coming off for anyone! 🤣 Trying to wipe off wet resin is also a bad idea; it's just too sticky!
