Thanks for making this video and for always being so patient in the groups, answering all 50-leven questions we throw at you!!! You've got a new subscriber! Can't wait to see what's next!!😍😍😍
I love your video, I have made 5 trays and love the information on how to measure for the epoxy and getting the bubbles out. I love all the details about your video. Thank you for sharing.
I love everything about this! thanks for sharing your process. that silicone makeup brush would be great for getting the epoxy all over the tray if you didn't want to use your finger. the kind they use to apply epoxy to the glitter tumblers. Those silicone makeup brushes are super helpful!
I didn't even notice it was that long. I made my first tray yesterday and I've been watching her and folding laundry trying to get some pointers. Love her!!
New subscriber here..thank you so much for sharing this. I follow you on black girl crafts and so happy your on youtube now!!! Love the tray and this video..have a blessed day and thanks again!!!
Hello, I was trying to find a video on how to glitter a TV tray and ran across your video. I absolutely love it!! Thanks so much for the detailed video and advice. I plan on trying a rolling tray instead. I'm new to crafting and some one told me about the Black Girls Craft page. I'm so impressed with all that I see. Thanks for sharing your talent.
Finally someone showing steps and materials you did a great job I love it I do have one question what was that in the beginning of the video is that a printer ? Is that the only one way to cut out custom designs
Monroee Cashh hey there!! Thanks for watching! In the beginning I was showing how I cut my vinyl decals for my trays using a silhouette cameo 2... there are several other machines out there but this is the one I have. You have so many options when it comes to decals, u can use stickers, or printouts as well.
Monroee Cashh don’t rush the decision! Make sure you do your research on the projects you would like to accomplish and make sure your machine accommodates that...
This was by far the best tutorial out for the rolling tray! Thank you so much. Although I had some bumps and bruises along the way (I’m new to the cricut family) they came out pretty good. Again thank you for answering the questions in the group as well as on this video I had in my mind.
I also make trays but was a little scared to try spray painting them and using epoxy for whatever reason but i'm going to give it a try after watching tir video. I love your work
I have a question, if I am unable to get a sticker or decal can I print my image onto any type of special paper and glue it on or would that cause problems with the epoxy?
Tasha Fedorsen hey there!! Thanks for watching!! I do that all the time!! I print images I like on regular printer paper and mod podge them down, at least 3 coats, letting each coat dry fully in between, that way the epoxy doesn’t seep under the image and damage it! Hope this helps!!
Evan Edwards hey there! Thanks for watching! Sticker paper would work as well, just make sure to coat it about 2 or three times with mod podge so the ink doesn’t run under the epoxy
Amber Steak hey there! Thanks for watching! I definitely use stickers on some of my trays, but make sure to coat the sticker with mod podge and let dry before applying epoxy.. it will protect the paper. Happy Crafting!!
Great video! Thanks a lot for taking the time to teach what you know👍 and the music makes me think of Mario bros style music for some reason and that’s a plus in my book lol
RayniaTABou what do you sit your trays on after you epoxy them??? Due to the epoxy loving to run it sticks to whatever I lay it on to epoxy it and once I pick it up its stuck and so now I have to peel it off and it chips my paint on the tray or it has extra epoxy spots that’s different than the whole tray.
honey562012 hey there! Thanks for watching! Yes! I leave the back untouched as it will be scraped and handled the most, it’s just less hassle that way!
Shemica Posey hey there! Thanks for watching! If your first layer of epoxy is being stubborn, i.e. indents, I recommend putting a second layer to see if it levels out evenly.
Thanks for the video! I noticed you only epoxy the bottom of the tray. Do you have any issues with the spray paint peeling or chipping off the edges where it's not epoxyed?
Hey there! Thanks for watching!!! Yes I do layer the decals, in the beginning of the video, you can see how I have the vinyl set up on my cutting mat, cutting out each color separately, once they are cut, I put all of the pieces together!
To help you save time and cups, get a small kitchen digital scale. You can place the cup and then zero out the weight of the cup. Now you can pour in resin to the desired amount, zero out the resin weight and then pour the same amount of hardener. Bam! One cup to use for mixing.
Thanks for sharing. Question do u have to spray the tray white before adding the color u want. Im trying to do a gold one and forgot to buy white spray paint and do u have to use the triple glaze as well
Nina Alvarado hey there! Thanks for watching! Just do light even coats of whatever color you want... let dry and repeat, do this as many times as needed for full coverage... you should be fine without the white paint, I feel the white just make the color brighter, and triple glaze is recommended but do what works for you. It’s mainly a trial and error project
Annette Becker hey there! Thanks for watching! I applied mod podge directly over the top of the decal and not the transfer tape... that was just for added security to the lighter and the jar and to keep the paint from chipping!
Jessica Urban hey there! Thanks for watching! No, you don’t have to use epoxy but keep in mind the use for the tray. The epoxy acts as a smooth surface with no crevices or room for buildup.. it makes its functionality so much better.
G Grizzly hey there! Thanks for watching... no problems with that have been reported yet, sooo I guess I don’t have a real answer... the clear coat should make it hard for that to happen tho unless it’s being dragged or thrown around.. I always tell people, if it’s handmade with care, then it deserves extra care... take care of it and it should take care of you🤗
Question. Can you use Modge Podge on the inside of the tray instead of the epoxy? I have never used expo yet before and have only used Modge Podge maybe once or twice.
LaTonya Mozee hey there!! Thanks for watching!! Using mod podge would not give you the same glass like finish on the bottom of the tray... you will still be able to feel the vinyl which could be an issue for the user, also it wouldn’t last as long. Epoxy is sooo easy to use! Follow the box instructions and you are golden! Hope this helps🤗
Julissa Medina hey there! Thanks for watching! I cut the sticker decal using my silhouette cameo 3 cutting machine. But cricut is perfect for this as well...
amekablackyedwardsae hey there! Thanks for watching! I don’t epoxy the edges. For me that’s just too much hassle. I instead use the krylon triple thick clear coat spray paint before I epoxy the middle of the tray.
Thank you so much I been looking for a video for a while now. So if I wanted to put a sticker inside the bowl should I color the inside then mod lodge it then sticker?
Thanks so much for watching! I never really put anything in the bowls, I only color the outside. A small sticker in the middle shouldn’t need anything extra on the inside
Sue Thompson hey there! Thanks for watching!! The only time I would sand it is to get a major bubble out, but other than that, no I wouldn’t sand it...
Hey, thanks for sharing this tutorial with us. I have a question. When you’re doing a glitter set do you epoxy the bowls and the lid to the container as well? If so how to you set them aside to dry?
Vicky Mulann hey there!! Thanks for watching!!! I don’t epoxy them but I would imagine you would just sit them on a flat surface as well to dry but only use a super thin layer to avoid dripping.
Shaniqua Peterson hey there! Thanks for watching! I personally don’t apply around the rim but I know several people who do, you can probably just use your gloved finger and apply a small layer so that it doesn’t run...
CRhea00 hey there! Thanks for watching! I have before out of habit but there has been times when I haven’t! Black is black to me, lol... you should be fine without it!
Hey there! Thanks for watching! The trays are about 12x8 but I only use epoxy on the middle so I can probably get about 12-13 trays from that size bottle...
NIKKI W hey there! Thanks for watching! I’ve only ever used spray but never the glitter kind.. I say Go For It!!! I’m very interested in the result, it will probably be so nice! Happy Crafting🤗
Thanks for responding....I'm definitely gonna try the glitter spray paint...and they have a glitter clear coat too to seal...I can't wait to see the outcome of it 😍🤗🤗
KeiVa' Giles hey there!! Thank you soooo much and thanks for watching!! Once I’ve cut each individual color, I just layer them one on top of the other according to the pieces... once you separate it in your design space, you will know how to put it back on top of each other
Can I spray the clear coat on the other items to give them the shine like the tray ? And using permanent vinyl they won’t ever come off without them being sealed ?
Chelsea DeJoie hey there! Thanks for watching!! Of course you can spray the other items!! And I haven’t had any of the vinyl come off with no seal on the accessories, however I don’t recommend not sealing the tray itself!!
Hello, I'm a new subscriber. I just wanted to know does the color show up that vibrant on sticker paper or what kind of paper did you use to make it show up like that
Love the video. Thank you! Did you cut your decal using sticker paper? Sorry if you answered this before. I tried to read through all the comments and questions but there were so many lol
Wonderful video! Have you ever used poly acrylic for the layer instead of epoxy? Also, have you ever sealed the inside of an ashtray with a decal when not using the bowl in a set? TIA
Fahamesha Cephas hey there! Thanks for watching!! There are so many methods to the glitter madness but when I do it, I apply mod podge first then glitter, repeat, then epoxy... hope this helps!
Hey there! Thanks for watching! I used Rustoleum brand from Walmart.. dark grey and white... the clear coat is Krylon triple thick clear spray paint.. also from Walmart! Hope this helps!
This was a great video i truly learn a lot with this i will share what i learn with all my friends u r the best with all ur information this was the best you can teach me any day and where do you live
Excellent tutorial. You are a very good teacher. Very easy to understand and you did a bang up job on this tray set! Can’t wait to try it! One question. When you spray the sides of the tray with triple thick, do you tape it off? Or is it ok if there is some over spray on the flat part of the tray? Thank you for your amazing tutorial!! I’m going to make these for some Christmas gifts!
Hey there! Thanks for watching! The epoxy gives the tray a shiny acrylic-like finish.. a smooth surface! And I cut my vinyl using Oracle 651 vinyl and my silhouette cameo
When you make a glitter rolling tray do you put anything on it before putting the mod podge because i just put the mod podge and the next day the white glitter had brown spots here and there
Hey there, thanks for watching! I don’t put anything on it, maybe you can cover the spot with more glitter... try rubbing alcohol before mod lodging the next tray and see if that changes the result
Julissa Medina hey there! Thanks for watching! Of course, I didn’t really have primer so I just used a light colored paint but multiple light coats of your color should do the trick too!
RayniaTABou I tried it for the first time yesterday and I can see when the spray dried there was some areas where I sprayed too much and it dried that way. Do you have any tips on how to get even coats and it dries evenly? Thank you so much.
Julissa Medina the way I get even coats is to spray at least 8-12 inches away, back and forth light coats.. I do that as many times as needed for maximum coverage, letting each coat dry thoroughly
Hi! Great tutorial! Question for you- have you ever done glitter trays? If so, how do you get the epoxy to seal the edges? I haven't tried one yet, but am anxious to! :)
How do you stop the permanent vinyl from wrinkling under the epoxy. The edges of the image kind of shribbles like yours did on the Patriots hat? Or is this going to happen anyways because of the epoxy?
Beautifully Unique Occasions by Tacanya Thomas hey there! Thanks for watching... my epoxy did not cause the vinyl to shribble, it may appear that way in the pic but the hat is not cut in straight lines, it’s actually a squiggle line because of the shape of the face on the logo. Epoxy shouldn’t cause the vinyl to do anything. It has to be laid right with no air bubbles... if the edges aren’t layed flat, then epoxy will seep under it, so just make sure you are laying the image down flat pressing the edges... hope this helps!
Hey there! Thanks for watching! When I bought mine, I kept in mind the specific crafts I like doing, vinyl work, paper crafts, so the silhouette was perfect for me. If you want to cut much more than you should probably look into cricut. Just figure out your goals with the machine and decide based on that! Hope this helps...
Carrie Rembert you are so very welcome! Thank you for watching! I get my epoxy from michaels with coupons but you can get it from any craft store and even on amazon.. the brand I use is envirotex lite
Did you epoxy up the sides of the tray or did I miss it? I have a tray I'm about to epoxy and I'm confused on how to get it on the slanted sides without it it just sliding down...
Man, Black women are always making me proud!!!! I love us 😍
**I know this is a craft video and has nothing to do with race. Don't @ me.

Thank you sooo much for watching!!!
Where do you get the trays
ronalea05 dollar tree
Do you spray paint the front and back or just front? And if its front/back how do u keep from getting fingerprint?
Brianna Ward hey there! I only spray paint the front, it’s too much fuss to paint the back too! There’s no way to keep it from scratching
I love everything about this! thanks for sharing your process. that silicone makeup brush would be great for getting the epoxy all over the tray if you didn't want to use your finger. the kind they use to apply epoxy to the glitter tumblers. Those silicone makeup brushes are super helpful!
Breana Hobson thanks soooo much for watching!! And thanks for that great tip! I will be buying one soon!!

RayniaTABou thank you so much I’ll be looking into buying one soon would the cameo be mostly used for your custom designs ?
Monroee Cashh yes, I make my decals using the cameo the most
RayniaTABou I’m going out Tomorrow I’m just stuck on which one to buy 😔
Monroee Cashh don’t rush the decision! Make sure you do your research on the projects you would like to accomplish and make sure your machine accommodates that...
To adhere smaller things to the trays you can also use something with less tack like scotch tape. Keeps the alignment and doesn't tear the paint away.
Thank you for showing step by step. Everything was nice 💜💜
Pretty Penny thank you sooo much for watching!
This was by far the best tutorial out for the rolling tray! Thank you so much. Although I had some bumps and bruises along the way (I’m new to the cricut family) they came out pretty good. Again thank you for answering the questions in the group as well as on this video I had in my mind.

Thank you so much for watching!! Go for it!

Hey what kind of decal paper do u use? I have circuit brand vinyl sticker paper and was wondering would that work?
@@RayniaTABou do you put mod podge on the top of my paper as well
Evan Edwards hey there! Thanks for watching! Sticker paper would work as well, just make sure to coat it about 2 or three times with mod podge so the ink doesn’t run under the epoxy
Carly Cervantes hey there! Thanks for watching! Yes, I mod podge anything that’s not vinyl adjust to be safe
Can I use stickers instead ? Or is it basically the same thing ?
Amber Steak hey there! Thanks for watching! I definitely use stickers on some of my trays, but make sure to coat the sticker with mod podge and let dry before applying epoxy.. it will protect the paper. Happy Crafting!!
Hello love I enjoyed the video but what kind vinyl did you use or does it matter
Great video! Thanks a lot for taking the time to teach what you know👍 and the music makes me think of Mario bros style music for some reason and that’s a plus in my book lol
What did you use to print your Patriots decal
Hey there! Thanks for watching! I used my silhouette cameo to cut the Oracle 651 vinyl
RayniaTABou oh ok. So u layered before you did the video👍🏾 thanks
where do you buy the trays from to start the process? Im new to all this.
Making one for my girl for Christmas. Thanks for the tutorial!
Ekron b hey there! Thanks so much for watching! She will love it! Merry Christmas!
Awesome video. I had just bought some trays from DT a day or two ago to give this a go so this is right on time!
Lilac Jade awesome! Glad to be of service🤗 Thanks for watching!!

So the traus are at dollar tree? And for the question about what to set the tray on i saw some silicone mats on amazon that might work
This was dope! You killed this step by step! 💯❤️
Beau Dotty hey there!! Thanks so much for watching!
Great job on the tray, but my question possibly obvious since you didn't show it but do you leave your back of the trays silver? Thanks for sharing.
honey562012 hey there! Thanks for watching! Yes! I leave the back untouched as it will be scraped and handled the most, it’s just less hassle that way!
Great job.. if you mess up & have Lil indentions in your epoxy , can this be fixed ?
Shemica Posey hey there! Thanks for watching! If your first layer of epoxy is being stubborn, i.e. indents, I recommend putting a second layer to see if it levels out evenly.
Thank you for that info
Love how u explain the details
Hey there!! Thanks so much for watching!
Thanks for the video! I noticed you only epoxy the bottom of the tray. Do you have any issues with the spray paint peeling or chipping off the edges where it's not epoxyed?
Ashley Loduca hey there! Thanks for watching! I don’t have problems with chipping or peeling because I use a clear coat on the edges...
RayniaTABou Do you use the clear coat on the edges before or after you use the epoxy on the bottom?
Rezna Webb hey there! Thanks for watching, before!
Does the clear glaze spray seal the spray paint on the back and sides?
GIA’s Life hey there again! I don’t paint the back. But I do make sure to over spray the sides to lock it on...
For the stickers, did you have to layer the Patriots sticker to get your 2 colors or how does that work?
Hey there! Thanks for watching!!! Yes I do layer the decals, in the beginning of the video, you can see how I have the vinyl set up on my cutting mat, cutting out each color separately, once they are cut, I put all of the pieces together!

Did you mod podge the transfer tape of the decals? Can you make a tray with waterslide after you paint it?
Annette Becker hey there! Thanks for watching! I applied mod podge directly over the top of the decal and not the transfer tape... that was just for added security to the lighter and the jar and to keep the paint from chipping!
How could i do a small tin box 8"x8" with a lid?
Very nice thanks for sharing, you did the Louis Vuitton on your silhouette also
Yes! Thanks for watching
You’re very welcome now I’m going to try because everyone calls my son Louie V
Do I have to use epoxy? For example if I just want to put a name on it and not a picture would my Oracal 651 be good enough without epoxy?
Jessica Urban hey there! Thanks for watching! No, you don’t have to use epoxy but keep in mind the use for the tray. The epoxy acts as a smooth surface with no crevices or room for buildup.. it makes its functionality so much better.
Thank you for this video I've been searching for one for weeks. Can't wait for your glitter tutorial.
Thanks so much for watching!!!🤗
Ik this is a little late but can the spray paint chip off overtime onto my bud and possibly contaminate it?
G Grizzly hey there! Thanks for watching... no problems with that have been reported yet, sooo I guess I don’t have a real answer... the clear coat should make it hard for that to happen tho unless it’s being dragged or thrown around.. I always tell people, if it’s handmade with care, then it deserves extra care... take care of it and it should take care of you🤗
Omg these are so good!! I can’t find those lil lighters I’ll try using the regular ones..... ty for step by step instructions
Claudia Diaz hey there!! Thanks so much for watching!! Happy crafting 🤗
U can always get them lighter at family Dollar or dollar general have them at by check out line
Tacara Woods yes, mine come from Dollar Tree!
Question. Can you use Modge Podge on the inside of the tray instead of the epoxy? I have never used expo yet before and have only used Modge Podge maybe once or twice.

How u get the colors on the cut out do u layer the cut outside I have a cricut and u have to do separate cuts it u change colors
lisa Falor hey there! Thanks for watching. That’s exactly what I did.. cut each color and layered it.
Where can I get this sticker decal? Did you cut it using a cricut machine?
Julissa Medina hey there! Thanks for watching! I cut the sticker decal using my silhouette cameo 3 cutting machine. But cricut is perfect for this as well...
Love the video. Do you have any tips for epoxying the edge of the tray?

Do you paint the bottom of the trays ?
Very well put together tutorial. If you need an additional cost of epoxy do you have to sand first for the next coat to adhere?
Sue Thompson hey there! Thanks for watching!! The only time I would sand it is to get a major bubble out, but other than that, no I wouldn’t sand it...
Hey, thanks for sharing this tutorial with us. I have a question. When you’re doing a glitter set do you epoxy the bowls and the lid to the container as well? If so how to you set them aside to dry?
Vicky Mulann hey there!! Thanks for watching!!! I don’t epoxy them but I would imagine you would just sit them on a flat surface as well to dry but only use a super thin layer to avoid dripping.
Great project I love it
Can you apply the epoxy around the rim also? Will that work or is it only good to apply to the center of the tray?
Shaniqua Peterson hey there! Thanks for watching! I personally don’t apply around the rim but I know several people who do, you can probably just use your gloved finger and apply a small layer so that it doesn’t run...
I love this set. You made this look so easy! Thank you for sharing! 👍
fiftyfine health hey there! Thanks so much for watching!
Quick question, do I still use white as a primer if I'm doing black ?
CRhea00 hey there! Thanks for watching! I have before out of habit but there has been times when I haven’t! Black is black to me, lol... you should be fine without it!
Thank you finally someone willing to share the information. New Subbie.
melaninlioness kish thank you sooo much for watching❤️
@@RayniaTABou you're welcome. You did such an amazing job.
How many trays can you with that sized bottle of epoxy kit? What size are you using?
Hey there! Thanks for watching! The trays are about 12x8 but I only use epoxy on the middle so I can probably get about 12-13 trays from that size bottle...
You are awesome! This was a great and thorough tutorial. First time watching your channel, definitely subscribing!
Bri S. Hey there!! They sooo much for watching!! 🤗
if a plant leave was used how would i prepare it.
Great video is that a plastic tray you use? and where can I get one In that size?
AVIS BROWN hey there! Thanks for watching!! It’s a metal tray and I get them from Dollar Tree!
Hi, do you spray the whole tray with triple thick spray before epoxy or just the sides
Elexica Patrick hey there! Thanks for watching! Just the sides
What if you can’t find this EnviroTex resin ? What’s the next best resin to use ?
Hey there! Thanks for watching! I also use the “Amazing” brand.. I’m sure any clear cast two part resin would work though...
What type of machine are you using to make your lables?
Hi....could I use spray paint instead of painting the tray 🤔 I wanna do one using the glitter spray paint and a color spray paint 🤔
NIKKI W hey there! Thanks for watching! I’ve only ever used spray but never the glitter kind.. I say Go For It!!! I’m very interested in the result, it will probably be so nice! Happy Crafting🤗
Thanks for responding....I'm definitely gonna try the glitter spray paint...and they have a glitter clear coat too to seal...I can't wait to see the outcome of it 😍🤗🤗
How do have no bubbles? I have tried everything!
Can you do same in a wood tray?
Do you epoxy the sides and top of the tray as well?
JoAnne Rhode hey there! Thanks for watching! No I don’t... the clear coat seems to be enough protection for the sides
I love this video!!!! You did an excellent job!! Keep up the great work. Question how did you put your Patriot Logo together once it was cut?
KeiVa' Giles hey there!! Thank you soooo much and thanks for watching!! Once I’ve cut each individual color, I just layer them one on top of the other according to the pieces... once you separate it in your design space, you will know how to put it back on top of each other
Can I spray the clear coat on the other items to give them the shine like the tray ? And using permanent vinyl they won’t ever come off without them being sealed ?
Chelsea I was wondering the same ?
Chelsea DeJoie hey there! Thanks for watching!! Of course you can spray the other items!! And I haven’t had any of the vinyl come off with no seal on the accessories, however I don’t recommend not sealing the tray itself!!

Wonderful video! Have you ever used poly acrylic for the layer instead of epoxy? Also, have you ever sealed the inside of an ashtray with a decal when not using the bowl in a set? TIA
Very nice do you use a circuit machine
Loretta Williams hey there! Thanks for watching! I use a silhouette.
I'm just getting into real crafting, and I found you! Thanks for this video I'm following you!
MsprettyBrnGrl hey there!!! Thanks so much for watching!
what type sticker paper did you use that let's you peel the decal off
Terri Sylvester hey there! Thanks for watching, I use Oracle 651 vinyl...
Great video! How would I apply glitter on the tray ?
Fahamesha Cephas hey there! Thanks for watching!! There are so many methods to the glitter madness but when I do it, I apply mod podge first then glitter, repeat, then epoxy... hope this helps!
Thank You will you make a video of that method ?
Fahamesha Cephas I would like to... I just have to find the time😂
Gm!!! I love how you did this video... I have one question can you name all the spray paint you use??? Thank you 🙏
Hey there! Thanks for watching! I used Rustoleum brand from Walmart.. dark grey and white... the clear coat is Krylon triple thick clear spray paint.. also from Walmart! Hope this helps!
I love this and it’s very inspirational. But where do you get the trays from ?
Jada Marie hey there! Thanks for watching... the trays are from Dollar Tree
Great video!! Thanks I needed a good tutorial to see if it's something that I can possibly do I'm new to the crafting world
Hey there! Thanks for watching!!!
Im loving the attention to detail.💕🙌🏻
Mariana Juarez hey there!! Thanks for watching!! 🤗
Could you use clear glue or something else as a substitute for epoxy?
Anthony and Autumn hey there! Thanks for watching! I don’t recommend using a glue but if you must, try a decoupage medium such as mod podge.
Did you make your decal? If so what type of vinyl did you use?
Nyeisha Taylor hey there! Thanks for watching! I did! I used oracle 651 vinyl
This was a great video i truly learn a lot with this i will share what i learn with all my friends u r the best with all ur information this was the best you can teach me any day and where do you live
wynema sanders hey there!!! Thanks so much for watching🤗
So when you do a glitter tray do you bring ur epoxy to the edge or do u also use clear glaze stray on edges
AlexCrafts&Creations hey there! Thanks for watching! I bring mod podge all the way to the edge, I don’t use spray on my glitter trays...
@@RayniaTABou but you still do the resin on the glitter trays? Or just mod podge? Could you do a tutorial!? Please!
Hello! Do you do the edges first or epoxy the bottom first if that makes sense
lenna valenzuela hey there! Thanks for watching! I don’t epoxy the edges... I do spray them first before I epoxy. Hope this helps.
Excellent tutorial. You are a very good teacher. Very easy to understand and you did a bang up job on this tray set! Can’t wait to try it! One question. When you spray the sides of the tray with triple thick, do you tape it off? Or is it ok if there is some over spray on the flat part of the tray? Thank you for your amazing tutorial!! I’m going to make these for some Christmas gifts!
723mash Hey there!! Thanks so much for watching!! I don’t tape it, a little over spray is fine, lol!! Happy Crafting!
Does the epoxy have to "cure" for so many days before it can be used
Valerie Riddley hey there!! Thanks for watching! yes! I like it to cure for at least 48 hours...
Hi , If you dont mind me asking what exactly does the epoxy do? & with your vinyl did you like print out the logo on to the vinyl paper?
Hey there! Thanks for watching! The epoxy gives the tray a shiny acrylic-like finish.. a smooth surface! And I cut my vinyl using Oracle 651 vinyl and my silhouette cameo
So if I glitter a lighter. Do you suggest I epoxy it it seal it with something. Else
Atorian Whiteside hey there! Thanks for watching, when I glitter my lighters i only seal it with mod podge! Hope this helps!🤗
Thanks
When you make a glitter rolling tray do you put anything on it before putting the mod podge because i just put the mod podge and the next day the white glitter had brown spots here and there
Hey there, thanks for watching! I don’t put anything on it, maybe you can cover the spot with more glitter... try rubbing alcohol before mod lodging the next tray and see if that changes the result
@@RayniaTABou thank you 😊
What if we don’t have a primer? Can we still do the tray and add an extra coat of color?
Julissa Medina hey there! Thanks for watching! Of course, I didn’t really have primer so I just used a light colored paint but multiple light coats of your color should do the trick too!
RayniaTABou I tried it for the first time yesterday and I can see when the spray dried there was some areas where I sprayed too much and it dried that way. Do you have any tips on how to get even coats and it dries evenly? Thank you so much.
Julissa Medina the way I get even coats is to spray at least 8-12 inches away, back and forth light coats.. I do that as many times as needed for maximum coverage, letting each coat dry thoroughly
Hi! Great tutorial! Question for you- have you ever done glitter trays? If so, how do you get the epoxy to seal the edges? I haven't tried one yet, but am anxious to! :)
alyssa Mummey hey there! Thanks for watching! I have done glitter and I seal the edges with mod podge and not epoxy. It just works better for me.
Thank you so much for this and what kind of mod podge do you use for the edges?
Paloma Velazquez hey there! Thanks for watching! I use krylon triple thick spray paint on these edges...
How do you stop the permanent vinyl from wrinkling under the epoxy. The edges of the image kind of shribbles like yours did on the Patriots hat? Or is this going to happen anyways because of the epoxy?
Beautifully Unique Occasions by Tacanya Thomas hey there! Thanks for watching... my epoxy did not cause the vinyl to shribble, it may appear that way in the pic but the hat is not cut in straight lines, it’s actually a squiggle line because of the shape of the face on the logo. Epoxy shouldn’t cause the vinyl to do anything. It has to be laid right with no air bubbles... if the edges aren’t layed flat, then epoxy will seep under it, so just make sure you are laying the image down flat pressing the edges... hope this helps!
When you cut the decal was the contact paper attached to the vinyl or did you do that manually
Hey there! Thanks for watching! I manually applied the contact paper when I was layering the decals
You’re welcome I loved the tutorial btw.. is it possible for to make another video going over all the beginning steps with getting the design
Very possible! I will try to get a tutorial together for that...
Thanks so much😘
What do you look for when buying cutter
Hey there! Thanks for watching! When I bought mine, I kept in mind the specific crafts I like doing, vinyl work, paper crafts, so the silhouette was perfect for me. If you want to cut much more than you should probably look into cricut. Just figure out your goals with the machine and decide based on that! Hope this helps...
Do you use the cricut for your decals?
Sukeya Miller hey there! Thanks for watching! I use the silhouette cameo..
How did you make the sticker
Thank you thank you!!!! ❤❤❤ one question where can I get the epoxy from??
Carrie Rembert you are so very welcome! Thank you for watching! I get my epoxy from michaels with coupons but you can get it from any craft store and even on amazon.. the brand I use is envirotex lite
Did you epoxy up the sides of the tray or did I miss it? I have a tray I'm about to epoxy and I'm confused on how to get it on the slanted sides without it it just sliding down...
Hey there! Thanks for watching! I don’t epoxy the sides, that’s is what the krylon triple thick spray is for...
@@RayniaTABou oh, maybe I missed that part. 😅 thanks for the reply!!
Very well done! When do you spray the Clear krylon spray on the edges?...before or after you epoxy? Thanks!
Chevon Wiseman-Thomas hey there!! Thanks for watching, I spray the clear coat once the other paint dries, and I let the clear coat dry before epoxying
I had this question also thank you
Amber Kirk thanks for watching, hope my answer helped!
