I have never done resin before, just received my kit today. I have a tiny handwritten note my Mom wrote for me before she passed, I was starting a new project in my life and she wrote something wishing me the best and giving me her support. I treasure that little piece of paper like nothing else! And I thought of doing a bookmark in resin, and put the note there so I could have it with me always and preserve it, your video helped me avoid messing up!!! Thank you! I will practice first with something else though! 😄
@@analiaf.j.6131 I'm sorry I didn't see this. As the other comment said I would photocopy it and put that in resin. Even with practice sometimes resin is a fickle beast. I personally would never put something so important in resin. All resins will go yellow over time, years and years for some but still. It's not a great medium for preserving important documents.
This is one of the most helpful resin tutorials I have seen in a long time. Thank you for showing us first how to heat the print to set the ink, then to seal it up to embed in the resin. I am most pleased with this tutorial. Blessings to you and yours with health always.
Two years later and you are still helping. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I cant afford a cricut right now and can I tell you. All my inkjet pics for my coasters, keychains and others are all beautiful due to your technique. Thank you, I really appreciate it.
I have a Cricut and regret it. It, I, and my computer are not compatible. If I hadn't been given it by my sister, I would really resent it. Spending over $500... I can't see many people getting that back in sales. So don't feel bad about not having one!
I haven't started resin crafting YET, but I have to say when u began unfolding the first coaster, I felt like a child on Christmas morning 😀 THANK YOU!!! ❤
I've done resins for a few months now but always wanted to do cutouts. Your tutorial showed me so much, I was held back until watching it! Really very good.
thank you, thank you, THANK YOUU so much for this! putting foil pieces into my projects has been my new challenge & it’s been exactly that. 😩 so many folks don’t share their resin tips, so it’s appreciated.
Just when I was on the verge of giving up!! thank you so much for the trick! This is the easiest and most efficient way that I used to stop resin from leaking
Glad I decided to watch this! I wanted to use a picture in my resin tray. I thought of using modge podge. I have tacky glue so I will be using that! Thank you for sharing!
I actually love everything about this video. From the way you’ve taught how to transfer an image to resin to the color combination you’ve used. Everything’s lovely
Instead of sealing the printout, I paint the back of my printout with two layers of white acrylic paint (dry between layers). So despite the resin soaking into the paper, the printout does not get that grey look from light going right though it. The white acrylic on the back helps reflect the light. The photo ends up looking like it didn't soak up any resin.
THIS IS THE ABSOLUTELY THE BEST VIDEO! Compared to all the videos that I've seen. Kudos to your fine work and fantastic job. I wish I could attach a pic of how fine my work turned out. Thank you again.
@@alexandragarciabaudrit5835 This is on my list to try, lol! I know that using laminating paper has been successful for me. I’ll let you know as soon as I try this!
This is by far the most insightful video I have ever watched. I love your soothing tone and deep explanation of the Do's and Don'ts of this project. I am going to create a memorial for my grandson and wanted to get the best step by step explanation of how to seal pictures with resin. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your tutorial for this project. Wish me luck and I pray that my grandson's picture looks as beautiful as your coaters.
Those are adorable. I just happened across this video at the same time I was getting ready to experiment with putting paper under resin. This was a God send and has save me days of having to work this out on my own. Thank you for sharing this!
Wow thank you so much for all the helpful tips. I need to make a pair of earrings for a cousin with her business logo and I will try to method and see how it turns out.
Ooh, thanks for the tips. I was watching this at work due to one of my customers wanting to do something like this, but I'm thinking of doing this myself too as Christmas presents.
Oh my God thank you so much u just saved all my next projects from being thrown out, I have put sticky back printed decals on projects n they all FADED 😢. Thanks for the video.
Thank you so much for this video. I was using sticker paper n laminate over the top of it which isn't very cost effective. Plus, I would still get some resin seeping thru at some edges. This was very easy to follow and the colors are still bright after the glue dried. Just awesome! Can't wait to try this method
Thank you so much! You have no idea how you saved my life from frustration and stress as well as my small startup business! You're the very first video I've watched and wanted to subscribe to as well as pay for! So thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
My fave method is glossy photo paper, with the resin I use it doesn’t bleed, or wrinkle. I massage some resin onto it before adding to a tacky layer of resin.
Thank you for this. I've been thinking about making pendants with pictures or drawings and I was worried about how the resin would affect the paper, so thanks again!
Love your intro music!! I usually skip past intros, but your music has the feeling of the opening of a 90’s family film. My heart is thoroughly warmed 😋
OMG I am so glad I came across your video! I have ruined a project I am currently working on twice simply because I did not seal my photo properly on the Resin! Perfect timing for me to see this as I am attempting the same project a 3rd time! I now Know what to do, Thank You!! Subscribed.
This is a well done tutorial. Thank you for your time and effort that you generously shared in order to impart this wonderful information. I know it will be very helpful for me.
This is a great technique I hadn't considered. Aleenes is great. I used it to seal some beads on a project, worked better than modpodge and kept shine. Thanks for sharing 😊
Omgosh I'm so glad I found your video! Just in time for doing 2 gifts that require paper to be used in them. Im going to be using actual pages from a book. Thank you!
I’m so happy I came across this video! I’ve been trying to figure out how to seal my pictures for Resin. I was told mod podge but this way looks better, just ordered the Tacky Glue 😂 thank you
secret squirrel tip from an ex teaching assistant who had to laminate a LOT of paper...always cut the paper shapes out first before laminating, you are less likely to have gaps as it complete encases that piece of paper, and it also means you can reuse the paper for other things so less paper waste too!
@@AstraRoseYT Hi ...I'm wondering if I laminate only 1 side of my pic/image, maybe I only have to glue the paper back side of pic to the set resin. Then I can pour new resin over top?
@@AstraRoseYT Yes you can. Watched Teatime N Dolls Channel... & Positively Papercraft Channel yesterday. They've done a number of items by putting 2 pieces of plain paper in between 2 sheets of patterned paper in a laminating pouch. It's fascinating. Bit of a game changer with the new matt pouches too. I've got the pouches but I have to borrow a laminater.
Question please .. when the tacky glue is only painted on the image and extends beyond the image not across the entire coaster where the image is.... does it not show the glue streaks on the completed project?
I don't see them when there is a color background. You may be able to see some texture when the item is completely clear but I'm not sure. I have done any on clear before
You can also seal your paper before adding it to your project after the sealant dries, so u don’t have to worry so much about getting a really good seal between the paper and the resin, since the images itself is pre-sealed.. I like Liquitex matte medium for sealing.
Thank you for adding your knowledge so everyone can try a different method. I have done it this way but have had trouble a few times when part of the paper floated and part didn't or it slid to one side while I wasn't watching lol. Slippery little things.
@@MileyonDisney I've always seen crafts as an area we can come together and just have fun. No need to inject politics. All that needed to be said was that your bottle from the Dollar Tree has 3 ounces. The bottle is small so it's not surprising that someone would think that it had less. I doubt they meant any harm.
I use amazing clear cast resin too ... what heat does it withstand because I couldn’t find it on the uk website Thanks for the tips! So far I’ve used my laminator for images and not had any problems with resin leaking in but I’ve seen others have problems with that. So it’s nice to have this as an a,tentative if the laminator stops working
Thank you so much!! I have never done anything with resin. I got interested when I saw a video of something someone made and I fell in love with the Final project. Thank you for showing a beginner how to do it.
Thank you for sharing your tips! I have been struggling with removing the white computer paper background that some images may have once I print them. Even if I cut the image out as best as I can there are still parts that my scissors cant reach leaving the white computer paper incorporated in my piece. Any tips from any resin artist would be much appreciated!!!
Some ideas: use a craft knife instead of scissors. If your image is graphic and outlined, make a wider stroke so you can cut into it. If not, make a softer, faded edge on your image, maybe graduating it into the resin color, so the trim blends in. Or you could do that after printing, with a marker or pastel or something. :)
This video helped me so much. I’m a beginner resin artist, and I appreciate that your videos are so fun and simple to follow. Love your channel, & thank you! 🖤✨🕷
I watched this video a while back and last week I put it to use and this absolutely works..I've done it without before and always had the slick spot I'm guessing resin seeped through. I'm so glad I stumbled on your video. Thank you!
I personally found a few better ways to insert images. One includes using sticker paper and clear sheets and inserting it into the first layer of resin so that it has a more reliable seal.
You can use just about any glue but I have found this glue to work best. With other kinds of glue you will need to do some tests to see how many layers you will need to add for best results
This was an awesome tutorial, thanks so much for showing the process step by step. I wanted to use this to turn my stickers into keychains and charms and will be using this with my sticker paper and just higher quality printer paper. I have a question though. I see that you're mixing and handling resin without any safety equipment, and have been worried about using resin for the effects it might have on crafters with years of possible handling and inhalation. Have you run into this issue? You obvi are a pro at using the resin but for a beginner would you recommend using some PPE like gloves and a mask? I always worry and have heard other TH-camrs warn about the dangers of long time work with resin. Thanks again for the tutorial, it's awesome 😎
Hi, thanks for watching. I do recommend ppe. In some of my older videos I didn't wear gloves because of sensory issues and have since found latex free ones that work for me. Resin is not especially dangerous for your health in most cases but you can become sensitized to it over time so best to protect yourself and work in a well be ventilated area, mask up etc.
Say I am doing multiple things with paper can I paint with glue a few layers the top of the paper before I put it the project while I’m waiting for my mold to dry and then when my mold dry do it like that to ensure a good seal ?
Yes it's just regular printer paper and inkjet printer. When doing this technique it's pretty important to allow your print to dry thoroughly before you heat set it. Otherwise it's like sitting on a freshly painted bench. After it dries and it's heat set the glue will seal the ink so the resin doesn't soak in
@@ResinBelle I can use this process for actual photographs as well, yes? First time I used a varnish, painted on, and it worked perfectly! Second time, not so well. The ink just faded away within 2 minutes. I think I only put 2 coats, as opposed to the first time I put 3. But, I'm still a bit leary.. 😳 This seems sooo much easier!! Please help.. Lol, thank you in advance! 🙏

I personally found a few better ways to insert images. One includes using sticker paper and clear sheets and inserting it into the first layer of resin so that it has a more reliable seal.
Keena Rosh like laminating paper ?
@@meshabeyond its more like the old school projector sheets that teachers used to write on. clear single pages.
I tried that but it bubbles up really badly.
Printable vinyl works too and you don’t have to seal it 😉 but this method is great too if it’s an image you didn’t print on printable vinyl
It’s amazing I gonna try it for new project I love it👍👍👍
does it have to be that glue brand specifically ?
You can use just about any glue but I have found this glue to work best. With other kinds of glue you will need to do some tests to see how many layers you will need to add for best results

These look amazing😍. did you use normal printing paper ? I've tried using printed art in my resin before and it always made the ink run.
Yes it's just regular printer paper and inkjet printer. When doing this technique it's pretty important to allow your print to dry thoroughly before you heat set it. Otherwise it's like sitting on a freshly painted bench. After it dries and it's heat set the glue will seal the ink so the resin doesn't soak in
Thank you for asking this question
@@ResinBelle I can use this process for actual photographs as well, yes? First time I used a varnish, painted on, and it worked perfectly! Second time, not so well. The ink just faded away within 2 minutes. I think I only put 2 coats, as opposed to the first time I put 3. But, I'm still a bit leary.. 😳 This seems sooo much easier!! Please help.. Lol, thank you in advance! 🙏
@@annamarierotondo3394 you should be able to use this process for photos. Always good to do a small test before doing a big project to be sure.
@@ResinBelle Thank you so much for responding, I'm still sort of a newbie, lol, so I truly appreciate your help! 💖
Thank you, Resin Belle.
