I've been binge watching you tonight... Found you by accident... Enjoying your channel... You said there are no mistakes.... I always say there are no mistakes, just new creative avenues available... Thank you for sharing your videos with us...
You are amazing! Ive been wanting to do one of these for so long but Im not talented. LOL I overthink and mess things up. Hearing you say to just let things fall there they do helped so much. I didnt stress about anything and my cup turned out so pretty! I cant believe I was able to make something I didnt want to throw away on the first try. Thanks so much!
I absolutely love this tutorial. By far, my favorite technique! I have tried Mod Podge and spray adhesives, but the epoxy method works the best for me as well. This video inspired me to start making tumblers!
I love how it turned out. Glittery but no outrageous color combination. Just got myself a cup turner from Homeproshop on Amazon and now looking for tumbler projects that uses glitters. Thanks!
You’re like the bob Ross of glitter tumblers lol “Happy iridescent pink” “I’m gonna let it fall where it lands” “There are no mistakes in my studio” 🤣 Thank you for these amazing tutorials !!
I just watched all 3 parts and this is an amazing tutorial! Thank you so much for sharing your insight and talent so those of us who are (thinking of) starting this adventure have some inspiration and direction.
I love how you explain everything as your doing it, I love your video’s and have learned a lot by watching you so I wanted to thank you for that 🥰🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️
I think it would be cool if you added some text to your videos detailing each step and the products because it’s cool to be able to know what they are for beginners but great video and great tumbler!!!
I am do going to try this method soon! Thank you for sharing! I plan on getting mica but currently have some Tim holts metallic mixatives? Would those work at all?!
Good morning from Egypt 🇪🇬 😀 ☺ ❤ Can you please tell me what is the name of this spinning machine you're using?? 😊 thanks in advance.. lots of love ❤ 😍 💖
so sorry for the late reply! This is a rotisserie cup turner :) You can find them all over Etsy and for the one I use now www.etsy.com/listing/1066423425/the-cupinator-mini-ultimate?click_key=030f5caaf06303aaabac89f1cd622fe90e6024f2%3A1066423425&click_sum=32bf6995&ref=shop_home_feat_3&frs=1&sts=1
You should sand prior to painting to allow the paint to properly adhere. From there, you will coat the painted tumbler in epoxy and glitter the epoxy while it is wet.
I know this is gonna be a silly question... well, 2 actually. How do you know what colors and glitters to use together? And do you ever do the Milky Way with a glitter swirl base?
Such a difficult question to answer! LOL I simply choose a base color (say pink, for example) and then narrow my selections for complimentary colors and such from there based on whatever I'm feeling for the project in the moment...Definitely not a science. LOL Glitter Swirl bases are also a very common match with the Milky Way technique!
Just watched and am curious. After priming the cup and you’re adding the epoxy with the rose gold why is the rose gold added when it gets hidden under all of the glitter? Could instead it be spray painted to have a different color as the base coat (instead of a white) to prevent the metal from peaking through?
Toryn Robison this is a great question! I do extra color and sheen under the glitter to bring the sparkle of the glitter out even more. Plain white can take away and dull the sparkle. Sometimes you can even see the white poke through the chunky bits and you see the base of the cup :) ta- da!!!! ✨
Truly a difference of artist preference. I personally find that using the epoxy method to apply my glitter assists in a better lie for the glitter (keeps my chunky glitters flatter) as well as better overall coverage.
Is there any way you can remember where you bought your heart silicon mold from? It looks like it already has a pre-made hole but it is hard to tell from the video. :)
You have to know the pot time of the epoxy. The longer the pot time, the longer it stays "wet" and usable. But you can sometimes hit it with the heat gun and that might loosen it up.
@@MrsQueKnightWilliams It is the amount of time you are able to use the epoxy before it starts curing and is too thick and hardened to do anything with. Before tumblers, I was in the resin jewelry world. Resin and epoxy are interchangeable terms. So I knew about pot time from that craft. Every bottle of epoxy resin must state pot time so you will know just how long you've got before it becomes unworkable. Hope this helps.
Omg you should NEVER touch epoxyresin without gloves, a face mask, open air ventilated room. It’s very dangerous!!! It causes lung problems, cancer, skin rashes... Just look it up! It’s extremely dangerous, and people have died using it!
While you should only truly handle epoxy with a gloved hand, things do happen sometimes, and we find it in a whole host of places it doesn't belong (including our hair occasionally! LOL). To remove epoxy from my skin or hair, I simply wipe it off with alcohol then thoroughly wash the area with warm water and soap.
I don't do exact measurements, and there is no 'right' answer. I recommend starting small and building upon it until the desired opacity and color are achieved. Remember - You can always add more, but once it's there, you cannot take it back out. :)
Yes - The glitters I used on this particular project were all chunky glitters. It is 100% artist preference, though. You may use any type of glitter you like. :)
Nicole, do your cups turn out smooth everytime? I've made a few cups and theres always tiny bumps (not too bad). I am wondering if this is pretty normal since these cups are hand made. Ty
I just listened to her podcast about glitter and I know nothing about making a glitter epoxy cup but they mentioned that the better (poly) glitter lays flat... They also mentioned sanding it after one point and the cheap glitter sometimes losing color. Hope this helps!
Often times - Especially when using a chunkier glitter - more than one coat of epoxy will be needed to achieve a fully smooth coat. I will typically use an Exacto knife to shave off those sharp bits, then sand the cup to an even finish and apply a final coat. :)
I use many different suppliers for my tumbler needs. A list of preferred vendors for all sorts of products can be found in my Facebook group: NMO Resin Society (facebook.com/groups/TumblerMagic)
Pricing art can be very tricky indeed. The answer to your question will be different for everyone who makes it. Things to consider are: Your market, the cost of your products (many folks will gladly pay more for 'name brand' bases), your time, your experience/expertise, and the difficulty of the technique. I'm sorry I cannot provide you a more specific answer - But what I would sell it for may not work in your own market.
I have since started using a new vendor for this glitter: Backfist Customs. So the name is different, but the product is the same. It is called Pink Bubbly with Backfist Customs. :)

I use a torch to bring those pesky micro bubbles in the epoxy to the top to pop so I get a crystal clear finish. While it isn't technically a requirement, I do highly recommend it.
I absolutely love how laid back you are. I enjoyed watching this and now I want to make my own tumbler!

Please don't ask me how many times I have watched this series of videos. I lost count.
I am do going to try this method soon! Thank you for sharing! I plan on getting mica but currently have some Tim holts metallic mixatives? Would those work at all?!
Mixatives can absolutely be added to tint epoxy!

Thanks lovely😘🥀
New subscriber🙋
Hi Nicole where did you buy the rose gold mica
AWEsome...so, when you spray paint it, no sanding and you don't have to put resin over the cup first?
You should sand prior to painting to allow the paint to properly adhere. From there, you will coat the painted tumbler in epoxy and glitter the epoxy while it is wet.
LOVE your work & tutorials, thank you!! Can you please tell me which epoxy from FX do we purchase? thank you in advance!
I would like to know this as well .
I use the Premium FX Epoxy here.
Love your video and the glitter do you make it yourself and where can I get some love all of them, thanks so much, happy holiday
I love, love, love watching your video's 😁 Its become a Pagano Sunday family tradition 🥰
I’ve never seen that many GORGEOUS glitters, if my mom saw this, she’d burn down the house:( she cAlls glitter satan lol.
BlueBae 😂😂😂😂
Do you put something on the inside of the top to prevent epoxy from getting inside?
No, I do not. I will usually use an Exacto knife to peel out any epoxy that goes astray.
I know this is gonna be a silly question... well, 2 actually. How do you know what colors and glitters to use together? And do you ever do the Milky Way with a glitter swirl base?

LOL Glitter Swirl bases are also a very common match with the Milky Way technique!
What color and brand rose gold did you use?
Does anyone know if she uses all chunky glitters? Or are they mixed?
I use Chunky Mix glitter - So it has many different cuts and sizes in the one mix which allows for more full coverage. :)
I'm using an already colored plastic tumbler. I sanded it, so the resin sticks? Is that good enough?
Just watched and am curious. After priming the cup and you’re adding the epoxy with the rose gold why is the rose gold added when it gets hidden under all of the glitter? Could instead it be spray painted to have a different color as the base coat (instead of a white) to prevent the metal from peaking through?

Makes sense! Thank you!
Beautiful where did you get your heart mold from? I'm looking everywhere and I can't find that one
Is there a website for the glitters you used
Yes check out pdblanksandglitter.com
I need this!!!
Beautiful cup! I subscribed but can’t find part 2
hi Nicole, what's the difference between using spray adhesive or epoxy for the application of the glitter. xx
Truly a difference of artist preference. I personally find that using the epoxy method to apply my glitter assists in a better lie for the glitter (keeps my chunky glitters flatter) as well as better overall coverage.
Was the white due also mica powder? Can I use all mica powder or do I need Roger white pain too?
You can absolutely use all mica powders to tint your epoxy for this technique!
Is there any way you can remember where you bought your heart silicon mold from? It looks like it already has a pre-made hole but it is hard to tell from the video. :)
Brandi Pratt it’s a heart. pdblanksandglitter.com/collections/silicone-products
My question is how did the epoxy stay wet or workable where you can continue to put glitter on
You have to know the pot time of the epoxy. The longer the pot time, the longer it stays "wet" and usable. But you can sometimes hit it with the heat gun and that might loosen it up.
@@savagetwin52 never heard of the term" pot time"

I have a question.
Where can i find your pigment collection?
I can't find part two! Can you link it please?😁
How do I get the signature rose gold mica powder?
You can find my products at my shop: www.NMOShop.com
How do you make the turner?
I ordered this one from Glamour Tribe Customs on Etsy
What if the cup already has color and.you wanna.use it like that..would that work?... also...what if you don't have a spinner..do I really need it??
The tumbler spinner helps alot but you can do the drip method .
Thank you soooo much for this.... I learned so much!
Is there a substitute for epoxy that can be used? Love your videos 💕
Where do you get these spinners?
You can buy them in Amazon
Do you let it spin for the 5 hrs of drying?❤❤😄
do you mind link all the glitter you used in this video please?
Do you have somewhere on here everything you need ?
How do you clean the epoxy off of your fingers? This cup is so beautiful.
Omg you should NEVER touch epoxyresin without gloves, a face mask, open air ventilated room.
It’s very dangerous!!! It causes lung problems, cancer, skin rashes...
Just look it up! It’s extremely dangerous, and people have died using it!

To remove epoxy from my skin or hair, I simply wipe it off with alcohol then thoroughly wash the area with warm water and soap.
For the Milky Way cups do you only recommend using chunky glitters?
Nope, I use all kinds of cuts and sizes
Hi, new subscriber. What spinner tumbler do you use? (I’m not even sure if that is the right name.)
The rose gold mica you used as a base, is it from your iconic collection?
Trish Barrett yes ma’am!
When adding mica to epoxy, how much do you recommend putting in?
I don't do exact measurements, and there is no 'right' answer. I recommend starting small and building upon it until the desired opacity and color are achieved. Remember - You can always add more, but once it's there, you cannot take it back out. :)
Are these look like chunky glitters? Can you use fine glitter?
You may use anything you like! That is the beauty of art, after all!
Are all these glitters chunky glitters?
Yes - The glitters I used on this particular project were all chunky glitters. It is 100% artist preference, though. You may use any type of glitter you like. :)
what vendor is the penelope glitter from?
Do you half to sand it down your the first one I ever Hurd to sand it
It is a smart step to take to make sure your epoxy or paint adhere properly.
If I don't have mica what else can I use?
Alcohol inks or acrylic paint may also be used to tint your epoxy. :)
Nicole, do your cups turn out smooth everytime? I've made a few cups and theres always tiny bumps (not too bad). I am wondering if this is pretty normal since these cups are hand made. Ty

Wait until your epoxy is tacky take parchment paper or wax paper and press the glitter down.
Where do u get your tumblers? Thx you mentioned it but I can’t find it again,,,
I want to know this too .
I use many different suppliers for my tumbler needs. A list of preferred vendors for all sorts of products can be found in my Facebook group: NMO Resin Society (facebook.com/groups/TumblerMagic)
Where is the Penelope glitter from? I couldn’t understand
Peachy olive glitters... I believe
If I don't have mica can I use achool ink or achool paint?
Yes - Alcohol ink or acrylic paints may also be used to tint your epoxy. :)
Do you have to use a torch when you use micro powder?
The torch isn't for the Mica Powder. The torch is to pop all those pesky micro bubbles in your epoxy, and I highly recommend using one.
How can I buy a tumbler like this?
I list tumblers that I create on my site whenever I make a video or play around :)
No sealing when doing the epoxy method?
That’s what I wanna know lol
Michelle Horne Yup! Watch part 2 & 3
Does the cup actually need to be spinning for the drying process?
Yes for the epoxy to cure evenly
What spray paint did you use?
Pandora in stock NOW
Oh my goodness this tumblr cost 30 .... how much would you sell it for ?

No I am her big sister
What company did you say that pandora glitter is from??
I have since started using a new vendor for this glitter: Backfist Customs. So the name is different, but the product is the same. It is called Pink Bubbly with Backfist Customs. :)
What type of epoxy do you use? Mine I have to wear gloves and a ventilator mask😭
She uses FX black label . I saw that it’s a healthier brand but I haven’t heard many people talk about it .
You should wear mask & gloves with all epoxy
What is the name of your 3rd glitter I could not catch the name. TIA
which epoxy do you use?
For this project, I used Premium FX epoxy. :)
Do you sell or just make for friends and family
what brand of glitter is pandora?
PDB Blanks
