Don't worry about how you look! I think that this is a great video! LOL!! By the way.. another thing that you can do to use these beautiful glass rocks ..are use them either as a Rock to put on a gravestone..(in remembrance of that person who has passed)
You can also use it as a good luck stone or a "worry stone" too! There are also even things as "circle rocks" if you are creating a circle for a garden or for just a beautiful rock circle or a decorative rock circle(in a general sense)..and also for those who want to use it for "worship or to dress up a Wiccan Altar or whatever you like to do! I think that it's very very pretty!! Just thought I would share!!
I'm making some for some buttons to dazzle up some of my old coats!
HINT &. HELPFUL TIP: If you are using a glitter polish and want better glitter coverage (or a whole lotta glitter! :)) Get a cosmetic sponge (either latex ones or non-latex, it doesn't matter which) and paint a few strokes directly onto the cosmetic sponge. Then blot the sponge, where u put the glitter polish, directly onto the glass stone. Doing this will cut down on the clear polish that the glitter is in, so u get lots of glitter without having to paint 12,000 coats onto the glass stone! Plus doing this cuts down on the dry time too! If u want more info on how to sponge glitter then search for YTs SimplyNailogical - How to sponge glitter polish. You can also paint a layer of clear to coat onto the glass stone and immediately sprinkle actual loose glitter over the top coat. Give it a minute and then pat the glitter down onto the stone a little to help it adhere better. And last but not least, once that is dry, just paint a couple coats of top coat over the glitter! & ur done!!!
Kallan Dawn how do you write lot thing like that
Kallan Dawn holo
You are so right when you say this is addictive! I intended to just make one tonight to practice but I ended up making 11!! I put top coat on and let that dry, then another layer of top coat and put different colors of glitter on the stones and then I put a matching color nail polish to seal the glitter. I'm not sure what I'm going to do from here but I love just looking at them. They're so sparkly and pretty!

I am unsure why you are critical of this video, because personally I found it quite interesting. You did not talk too much & you showed what could be achieved.
You wrote somewhere you needed a manicure? I never even noticed your nails!
Relax - don't knock your efforts -- people like you!
;-D
MustaffaCuppa what
For one of mine, I put on rubber gloves and put a nail polish color on to a cheap toothbrush. Then I flicked on the color on to the rock. I did this over and over again with purples and blues and it looks FANTASTIC
OMG, thank you so much. For a week now that is all I have been making, when ever I got chance. There is so many designs that can be created. I am having a ball. Some I have made for house plants, some with magnets and some for rings. Again thank you.
I did this for paperweight for my coworkers this last Christmas, they LOVED them and many are still using them!
T Bacon That is very cool!
I made some with my BFF and we had so much fun thanks for making this video♡
Leah Steere Thank you Leah! I'm glad you made some had fun with it!!!
I'd like to know exactly what she did with the aluminum foil. wish she had shown that part. loved that ring.
From what I understand she stuck it on the bottom and lifted some of the polish off from it.

Thanks for sticking with it Bethany!
I think if you mixed different colors of glitter polish you could make them look like expensive opals. Great idea! Thanks.
This is excellent! Thank a lot for your channel :)
Thank you so much!
to make nail polish dry faster, put it in cold water. Don't worry, it doesn't wash the polish off, it freezes it on. ;) also no hate
I have been painting stones now for a few years. it is so much fun and you can do virtually any design on them, just remember to do it backwards. :)
Sorry for taking so long to answer Angie. I was out of town. I put a layer of colored polish on, then I put a piece of foil - crinkled is better - on the wet polish and pulled it up right away. That takes some of the polish off and leaves a cool texture/pattern! Then I followed up with other colors.
Thanks for making this video I love making these x
Your video is beautiful and your work is beautiful why? The answer may be simple because you are so beautiful
I have to admit, I am not a "craft person" but your videos are so entertaining AND they make me realize just how easy it is to make some of the things I love like glittery rings and the red glitter witch's shoes you made in a different video. I think I'm going to making these rings. :) Thank you for the inspiration!
I cant believe why would 400+ people not like this video. -_-
This would be a really fun project for young girls. Love the idea. Very innovative. :)
Krisselda Fan yo It would be so cute as like pebbles or you could make a stencil and do a bunny one like yours. xD or just like gems or charms!!
whoa nice o-o never thought of that xD you should make eeeeeeet
Wow thx me and my friend where making them are day 😀😀😀😀😀😀😃😃😃😃
me too
Thank you! If you glue a jewelry bail to the back of them, you can use them as pendants!
It's really cute when you add a picture first then paint the background I have one of my daughter. Love it. Thx for sharing.
you can so sell those and make money with them,alot of people would love to buy them,
Lol, i know right
Luna Sasami of courses Lol i agree
As rings?
This is really cool! Do you have a small company that you sell your crafts?
Thanks Cali. I don't.
I think this project rocks! What a fun thing to do especially when it's a blahh day.its so simple even my daughter can do it. And she's NOT CRAFTY at all lol shell love this,I can't wait to share with her and we can make some together!! Yay thnks
You are right Tracy! It's perfect for using up that last bit of polish, or the polish you don't use anymore. Thanks for watching!!
Mona
I think these rings are really pretty so I am going to subscribe to your channel.
Guys sorry I was wrong I looked over it again and did learn something I was wrong but u don't have to keep yelling at me about it I'm only 11
they would make great pendants as well. just need to drill a small hole on one end. love this project.
Very pretty! Great way to use up that little bit of polish on the bottom of the bottle. Love the sparkles.
I'm not the only one that saw the marble move right???
The tray underneath moved. Not the marble.
(paused at 2:46) I just realized. Omfg! I can finally have my own DRAGON SCALE! (dragon tales)
.
Beautiful! It makes me think I am looking into another galaxy full of stars!
I have an old terrarium that I think some pretty stones would look really nice with, totally doing this to spice it up. Thank you for the awesome tutorial!
+kitsune mochalite Thanks for watching and I'm glad you like them! I think they would look beautiful in the terrarium!
I don't like her she doesn't even show how to put the ring on
you glue it on with the glue that she showed in the video -_-
you are rude
can I do this to my gf or is it politically wrong for a straight man to do this?
Its not wrong
You're fine go ahead
😂😂
I would LOVE if my boyfriend thought of something like this for me. :)
some people would judge but why live your life for them? Honestly, I wish there were more dude crafters.
Good for you! That is awesome! Thanks for watching!
Mona
These look like so much fun! I know this video is old but I am so glad to finally know how to make them.
I might give these a go soon.
nice work but u talk much more than my grandma !! -_-
khawla kaw Your grandma must be a wonderful person! :) That was an early video, be sure to check out my more recent stuff, I talk much less.
CraftKlatch ew cool ! dont get me wrong but i really hate it when someone who is as much talented as you are keep talking while making a DIY i sure watch all your videos ... love from Algeria . Kiss !
At first I was skeptical and wasn't sure how that was gonna work, but after watching this I am speechless! Just bought some glass stones at the dollar store last week but they are tinted and I have over 20 bottles of polish that I haven't used in forever. This is a great project for someone already making jewelry! Thx for sharing.
P.S. my favorites were the two purple glittery ones at the very end (7:03-7:06).
Thank you Sheila!!! I'm glad you liked it! I do put a topcoat on after all of the other coats for a little extra protection. How fun to do this with your granddaughters!!! Thanks for watching!!
Mona
What a great idea. I have purchased some of these in the past for craft projects, but was waiting for the right idea to come along.
If you are inclined to do this, you can find the glass marbles at a dollar store or in the floral craft area. I suggest the dollar store. You get a lot for a little. You can use crackle with these and they create a really cool effect. If you do any online shopping, there are a lot of the ring blanks at etsy.com. Basically you have a flat section that you glue onto and then the band itself is adjustable. You will want to be careful when selecting one because some are specifically geared toward children and will run small if you have a large finger like I do. I like to use the E6000 glue for my jewelry. I usually use sand paper and scratch the surface of the ring blank and then apply the E6000 directly to the ring pad. Let it dry for 24 hours. If you want a better quality of glass domes, you can also find them on etsy too.
These stones looks so bright!
I made a ring today where I drew the logo of my state's MLB team on the stone with Sharpie and then put glitter nail polish behind it! I had over 20 women ask me where I bought the ring!! Super fun technique to add to yours!!
If you are worried about the nail polish coming off, you could do a think coat of a glue, like Weldbond, on it first and then apply the polishes. That should give it a little more grip on the glass. Thanks for watching Tori!
Mona
I've been doing these for a while on smaller stones, just the clear decorative ones you can buy to put in vases and such, but I never thought of that foil trick! I'm going to have to try that! And maybe look for some larger stones to use this on. Great tutorial and beautiful outcomes!
wow that one you were showing with the purples, blues, and pinks that you used a piece of foil on --- that was really cool looking. you're making me wanna do this lol....
I love that Idea!! My nieces would love doing this with me!! I am always thinking of new craft ideas to do with them!!
You are awesome Katrina! Thank you!!
wow, this is really creative. never would have thought of using nail polish to create a craft. very cool.
I'm doing this tomorrow! Cuz it's night and everyone is asleep. Can't wait to start!
Inexpensive and it works like a charm!
I watched this a month ago and now I'm HOOKED!! :) you're right- it IS addicting! It'sy favorite craft to do in the afternoons!! I've made so many- probably about 60+ rings & pendants. I LOVE them!! thanks so much for the great idea! :D
katie cotten
Yay Megan! I'd love to see how they turned out! I'm glad you liked it and thanks for watching! Mona
They look like some magical,expensive, precious stone!!!
+Hawwa Sultan They do! There are so many beautiful nail polishes out there.
I have seen these rings a few times now and I love them. Made them myself and I like the idea of the foil one!!! Great to try out.
Yes. As long as you protect the back, so that it doesnt was off. Like do art on the glass and use a nail polish as background. This will protect your acrylic design. Or apply resin backing
Hi Jeanine - That sounds like a fun idea too! I'll add it to my list! I've put pictures and Mod Podge on the back of them, but haven't tried the acrylic paint. Thanks for watching! Mona
Thanks so much Lauryn! Hope you keep watching! Mona
soft stencils could be used to design the stones, I love the idea of decoupage Piper Tudhope suggested, vintage style decoupage would look great as well.
craft stores, ebay, etsy have them. Even your local garden center will have some Glass stones. Might even find some at poundland/ dollarstores, they will be in lots of 100 g (or more) often used for decorating around candles... Depends on the size you want the glass stones to be. You could also get resin and moulds and make em how ever you want them to look.
Yay! How fun! Thanks for watching!
the one with the foil looks like a mini galaxy! Thank you for sharing your designs and ideas :)
Kathos Prime Thank you for watching!
Very pretty. Who woulda guessed, nail polish. Thanks!
This is so beautiful! i tried to make it but i cant get the glass stone and even though I cant make it i keep watching it all over and over again
I can not wait to try this with my daughter and nieces for my wedding decorations,this is what I needed for my final touch!! Great idea! Thank you. :)
Good! I hope you all have fun making them!
Thank you
Love this idea. Great way of using up polish you perhaps no longer use or the last of a bottle. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Tracy.
nice
my daughter will love this
the blue one looked like an opal
I have loads of clear stones so that is a good idea to make it not look so plain!! Thx so much for inspiring me
LOVE IT!!!! Definitely gonna try, I think I'm just going make a bunch & use it as decorative stones in the family room.
I always want to do an easy craft project that isn't too hard. And i found this really easy but affective pendant. I am definitely gonna try this. I also think that it is great for ages 8+
+Gwenno15 Gwenno15 I think you find that you will really like it.
These would also make great fridge magnets by just glueing a magnet to the back so pretty!
+Ruth Duncan You are right! They would make very pretty fridge magnets!
Another great paint to use is Pebeo Fantasy Moon and Fantasy Prisme paints. When dry the effects are amazing!
Good! I hope she does enjoy it. Thanks for watching.
if you add some ribbon to the back and lots of sparkle these would make really great decorations for the christmas tree .
now i can make pretty locker magnets!! thank you so much! ive been looking EVERYWHERE for magnets like these!!
Such a great idea!
thanks! i love crafting, and especially neat personalized jewelry
Thanks Astrid! I'm glad you liked it! Mona
I really like the purple one that you used the foil on....very cool !!! Must try this....
Hi Julie - You asked a reasonable question and you weren't the only one who asked. Yes you only paint the back side so the glass magnifies the polish. If you have any other questions let me know. I'm glad you liked it and thanks for watching. Mona
Thanks so much for watching. I'm glad you liked it. Mona
i tried and i have millions of glass beads and i love it!
These are so pretty! Loved the one that you took foil to.
Yes. Twice actually. If you look up Magnetic Tic Tac Toe Craft Klatch one will come up, otherwise look up Crackle nail polish Craft Klatch and more will come up! Hope that helps!
Very pretty! Always good to see how to use nail polish in other ways. I have so many and such pretty colors but I'll never ware them all and all of the bottles. TY for your tutorial.
felinekj Thank you for watching and commenting!
These are very versatile! Looks like fun. Thanks for sharing.
Ive made so many of these....they come out so beautiful!!!
They would! I bet your friends would love them!
You can get them at Hobby Lobby, or online. Michaels carries some too.
Pressing the stones into a blob of clay (the super cheap, never dries out, kindergarten variety) will hold them in place on your work surface so they aren't skittering around and we don't have to worry about fumbling them (I can't seem to hold on to anything). Makes it easier to set them aside safely while working on other projects, if you dedicate one tray or plate to the the project, too.
These stone are beautiful and you can use them to decorate your back yard
Awesome! I've always thought there was SOMETHING I could do with these glass pieces...you've given me tons of ideas! Thx!
Best Use of nail polish for creativity.....
This is awesome! Endless possibilities. I have to try this out^^
Brooklyn - That is a great cause. I hope it helps out! Thanks for watching!
Mona
Thanks for sharing your thoughts Nichole.
They don't have the wear and tear like your nails do, but eventually it would probably peel off. That's just an excuse to make another one! Or, if you put on a layer of a clear drying glue that is made to stick to glass, like a Weldbond, or something similar, then do the polish, it should last a lot longer! Hope that helps! Thanks for watching. Mona
