[@Sulzie65]

No idea why people have to be critical or mean or rude and just make assumptions. It’s just so easy to be nice. Ignore those people. They probably do it for attention or out of misery. Love all your videos.

[@coraltherriault3384]

I love his videos too. He is very creative

[@dollybrown1993]

Definitely

[@lechatbotte.]

Some people are just unhappy that’s why the negative comments.

[@spectonkular7510]

Hear hear!! Very well said! It's so sad that some people feel the need bring others down. Keep doing what you're doing Steve! You are obviously doing something right!!😊

[@DeborahProvinzano]

Sometimes to make them feel better about themselves, or less insecure. Though I often fail at this, a good motto is to be slow to criticize & quick to praise.

[@lisathrasher9051]

I think a pearl bead would look neat sitting in the water part. Or a tiny mermaid 🧜‍♀️

[@maiaallman4635]

That would be adorable.

[@danaparsonsliquidcosmosart2669]

Not just about protecting yourself..but about protecting the people you are teaching. People that don't are so irresponsible and spread such misinformation and it's literally hurting others. But you have always been amazing about PPE Steve

[@nancybard8327]

Steve you are a lifesaver! My sister brought home shells and sand from the beach and wants me to do them in resin for Christmas. I haven't tried waves yet so I just ordered these. Thanks so much for this tutorial you saved me!👍😁🌲

[@ResinEssenceByCheri]

Bravo darling! You killed this one! I would love to have white resin. Gorgeous.

[@marilynhansen7881]

I love how you made a resin shell & made the sea scene in it. Brilliant! Very beautiful, Steve! ❤ I think I would love to try that myself. Have a great day!

[@theresah5813]

Wearing PPE is YOUR business- not anyone else's. Your videos are so helpful and I am often inspired by them. Thank you!

[@pammartin1514]

I agree! He's in his own home and his body is his own business 💯 and not anyone else's.

[@MarcysArtsyFartsyCreations]

Steve, never worry about what unhappy people say, they're just looking for attention. Those shells look fabulous 😊

[@dollybrown1993]

Those are SSSSOOO cute!! I'm thinking you can sell/gift them together as a set of trinket dishes..... Stay safe, you do you, protect yourself and stay crafty 👍👍🛎️🔔🦋🦋

[@wendymcd8219]

Beautiful job, love the transparent one a lot. 👍

[@melissakeller3628]

I really love the lighter blue one with the touch of darker blue in it. Both shells are beautiful. Darker blue is for night on the beach. Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful project. An I do wear the nitro gloves when I work with any resins.❤❤❤ Thank you again for this lovely project. Have an AWESOME day.😊

[@debranoble1077]

I love them both, they remind me of home, I grew up by the beach and at night the water looks dark

[@hollylowery26]

That is the first resin mold I bought! It looks beautiful if you brush mica power on the out side of the shell and a little on the front from the straight edge and fade it to nothing on the inside. For the resin I always use 2-3 shades of blue for my oceans. Using an deep blue for the deepest part and change to a transparent blue for the top and edge of your water.

[@gayletaira1763]

The darker water is indicative of deep water (maybe an atoll?) The lighter water is indicative of shallow water, maybe a lovely beach somewhere? I love both❤ Thank you for showing us these😊

[@witch1370]

wow i love it sea scene is beatiful i love te stickers

[@tinanewbould2899]

I love watching your videos, I've learned so much from you.

[@lizzie511958]

Love the sparkle 😊

[@lorrainestewart997]

Love these steve very pretty ❤❤❤❤

[@karlat7880]

Squidgy widgey is my favorite technical term

[@richiebricker]

Very cool mask. I always thought you were doing voiceovers. Sounds alright with it on. Ive been looking for a small wave pour like this. Ill get some shell molds and try it, thanks

[@Lemonie76]

When I first started playing with resin, yours were the first videos I watched and the second or third video was your one one PPE! You saved my bacon! I had no idea! Love the shells! I always use transparent blues/greens for seas! These look great! Xxx

[@dawnbozykowski1306]

I prefer the translucent blue but the dark blue looks like the ocean at night with the reflection of stars ❤

[@AK00777]

GORGEOUS!!

[@melaniereisner8375]

I really like the lighter blue one.

[@user-vp4qq4it7i]

That cackle sounds like Charles Nelson Reilly, lol!

[@catt4570]

hadn't thought about making a scene in the shell. I've only ever made the shells in various colors. I'll have to try this out. Thank you.

[@Aednat85]

You are hands down my favourite resin creator to watch! I love how you still get super excited when demoulding XD

[@pammcmillan8842]

The lighter blue is my favorite

[@artistpw]

Very nice. I do prefer the more transparent blue.

[@ruthkilcullen1498]

Considering you are THE biggest advocate for PPE, I'm gobsmacked that people would suggest you're not kitting up with it. I mean... really? Love the spaceman vibes with your mask. 😂

[@RBLACKPEARL7]

I Love them too 😊

[@debbieklatt9823]

Love watching your videos.. seen you on fb first,then found you here.

[@SteveMcDonaldCrafting]

Thank you 😀

[@marthal2581]

Beautiful ❤

[@gabrielleschmidt1435]

🎉These are great!😊

[@paisleykitty7]

Those turned out fabulous!

[@dustinjolicoeur6138]

I loved this

[@DAsAngel1960]

I do love your work Steve 😊

[@joycepugh5347]

These are awesome TYVM

[@lechatbotte.]

Steve your a gem. I was so intrigued when I found your channels. Outside of the box, interesting projects. Of course I’m addicted to squidgy widgey lol.

[@mandicoleman7433]

These r adorable 😍 ❤️

[@lovice43]

Great video. Thanks 🙏🏾

[@missyb.623]

These are neat!

[@ann-mariewhiffen9881]

These are awesome I love them I love the transparent resin one

[@userDJCmomma]

I love these

[@karencamille7910]

Thanks!

[@tammytoth5874]

LOVELY ❤❤❤I love using those wave stickers

[@klairbaranek]

Awesome craft 🎉

[@SteveMcDonaldArtsandCrafts]

Thank you. ❤

[@glenda9651]

love these, I have trouble with waves, so the stickers are a great idea, thank you so much for sharing. 💙

[@jessicabaker541]

I literally just came across some real shells just like your mould yesterday, and had the same idea for them! I love the waves stickers! I find them so difficult to get right

[@colleenfraserdoggiekisses]

I drill 2 holes in the bottom of the slop of these and give them away as soap dishes, love this design!

[@thatsamazinggrace9512]

so pretty!! i think i love the lighter blue, clear resin better but both are gorgeous!

[@robinpullum8030]

They're both beautiful! I do like the lighter one a little better and the sticker idea is great!

[@LisaVornhagen]

The shells by themselves are beautiful! I love what you did with them! I didn't know those wave stickers were flexible like that. Good to know. I think I favor the one that is more translucent as well although both are awesome.

[@lindaeastment4542]

Hi Steve, Super Duper loved the way both turned out but like you my favourite was the light one 💖👍

[@miniscenesgb]

Great update on PPE Steve - well said. Interesting you're getting grief about PPE too - when people cant see us I have no idea why they think we're not using PPE. Nice work on those waves :)

[@bschupbach]

Can I ask where you get the shell mold? Don’t listen to any haters! Your awesome and I love watching your videos. I learn something from you everytime I watch you. Barb

[@suzanneimprota1800]

May I ask if you can possibly do a demonstration on how you would use wire as a border into a butterfly and add resin into the it making it look like stained glass ?❤

[@oslovejulie]

Steve love your channel where did you purchase your mask - I have glasses and use a half respirator. I love your mask. You are awesome 🤩

[@bubblemum]

Very impressive new mask you have there! Safety talks are always needed, thank you. I like the translucent best, but for both of them I don't really like the waves. I grew up by the Atlantic just down the street, and waves move in straight lines. they might have some curves to them in uneven shaped shores, but still, the basic shape of them is straight. Maybe also make some smaller ones further out to sea with white resin? Add a pebble or two to be a rock off shore. Oh, and the shells themselves are lovely!

[@MizJaniceResinArt]

Very cute! I like the transparent best. I've tried the stickers and it still didn't look right 😂 Sigh. Someday my waves will look like waves

[@samarasoles2463]

That shell tray is everything! I don't see the source in the links though. Just the other supplies.

[@jamesbarlowjr.3762]

Hello Steve. Looks Amazing. I don’t see the mask or the shells in the description. Could you link them? Or am I missing them? Thanks

[@NailTimeWithLex]

I always use transparent blues in my shells. I make beaches in real shells. But when I do beaches on wood I tend to use opaque resin.

[@brucejacobs4026]

I would cover the sand with a layer of clear resin as well. If there is any chance these will be used for soap. The rough surface of the sand will retain traces of the soap and will be harder to clean.

[@andrewmedhurst680]

Hi Steve, I absolutely love these, but can you please provide a link for the shell moulds. Thanks

[@squigglove]

Temu has them for like $3

[@pink.penguin]

I have hunted high and low for these shell molds ... Please tell me where I can get them .. I'm in Canada if that helps

[@premdevigrytten7589]

Dear Steve. Thank you for all your tips about safety!!!! Can you tell me the name and number and where I can get the same mask you are using,please?

[@karencamille7910]

Steve...where did you get your face protection?

[@MsBioticGod]

Where is the link for the mask with air flow?

[@richiebricker]

Itseems you have links to everything but the shells

[@davidmarsh959]

hi steve i am new to your channel i love it lots have you got a shop and do you sell your dishes thanks xx debbie xxxx I am interested in buying a starter kit I know about JDiction and your lovely self have paired up so can you recommend a resin starter kit because I would love to have a go many thanks, I have joined your you tube and seen a LOT of your films and You are BRILLIANT so I would like to buy one of your kits please many thanks xxxxx Debbie xxxxx😬😬

[@karenlloyd16]

They look gorgeous ❤. I have some of those stickers so will definitely be trying this.

[@SteveMcDonaldCrafting]

I was really impressed by them

[@karenlloyd16]

@@SteveMcDonaldCrafting They are so cute. I might try and add a couple of tiny little shells to mine as well.

[@salemdog100]

Karen, how do you manage to get the stickers off the backing?? I have some flower stickers and there is no pre-cut border with the base extending beyond that border. I have a terrible time trying to separate the edge into sticker/backing!

[@johnnieswearingen283]

I must state that I personally know you use ppe because I've seen what resin had done to you in previous videos showing what can happen if you don't.

[@katherinemnusa]

I had to stop using resin because my basement is not warm enough, I wasted a lot of money! Now I have all this nail foil what can I use it for? Please reply.

[@ajnormandgroome]

I'm sad there wasn't a link to the mold. I understand completely, just sad I couldn't buy it from yoyr store

[@malenateves]

You look like a Minion from the movie, Despicable Me! So stinking cute! ;))

[@danaparsonsliquidcosmosart2669]

I use them for five. They are nail decals

[@kawaneehamilton4038]

I was using gloves for the past year but not a mask. There was no odor. This year the resin suddenly started giving me serious reactions even with a N95 mask. I dont know if they changed the formula or what. Im not sure I can keep doing resin

[@KitschyandCrafty]

Unfortunately N95 doesn’t filter VOC’s at all so won’t prevent resin reactions. You’ll need a respirator with organic vapor rated cartridges. Anything rated N or P will let it right in as if you weren’t wearing a mask at all.

[@Sciayam]

All but the wave stickers was fine, they spoiled it for me. Interesting protection you got there, much better for us too

[@sandramiller4522]

I love the lighter water, but would have made the sand go over the whole thing. More realistic, after all sand is under the water too.

[@Jellybean_Craftz]

Ignore those silly people and squidy widgy them out! 😜

[@fairyspunfibers9098]

People who accuse you of not using PPE don't know you at all, Steve! You are so allergic to all resins, you have to practically wear a fullbody Tyvek suit! Just because you don't announce your serious allergy on each and every video...sheesh! Ignore those judgemental poops! I do. I've got those waves, but haven't used them, yet. Love those cute shells! I like the lighter blue one, too. 💗😍

[@pattyharrison6386]

LoL, Asking which comes 1st sand or water is like Asking what came 1st chicken or the egg
