A little tip i picked up from another resin crafter (can't remember who).... if you fill your molds with water when you get them, and then measure it, you can write on your mold with permanent marker how much it holds for future pours! Helps for bigger pieces. Just make sure your mold is completely dry before pouring resin.
I’m by no means an expert on your videos or certainly your craft, but this was my favorite video of yours to date. You showed various techniques and the reasons why. You showed your studio and how complex your work is. You showed the finished product. It’s not perfect in appearing how you imagined it, but showing that as the artistic process is amazing. Thanks for the video!
Just a tip, I tie mine to flower or other objects prior to putting it into the resin to paddle pop stick etc. I also put resin into flowers in a cup and let it cure. Helps to stop the floating
I love watching your videos, Julie. You never disappoint. I did notice at the beginning when you were pouring the resin into the petals that the red was getting darker. I was thinking maybe if you had a darker pink rose, it would do the same thing, and the rose would appear to be more red. Just a thought. And what if instead of adding glitter to the resin, you lined the edges of the petals with uv resin and sprinkled a fine red glitter on them.
Very pretty. Julie I watch a lot of wood turners who use pressure pots on the regular. They run duck tape across to bottom of tray and up the sides fold the tape over on itself leaving about about 5 inches on each sides for handles to raise and lower the resin wood pour trays into the pressure pot. Or the use a bucket with a handle that fits inside your pressure pot to lower and raise resin pours. ❤❤❤
I didn't think the black would effect it that much. With the lighting in the photo, it is beautiful. Looks so real in the photo. Thanks Dave for showing is the pressure pot. 😊
That was really neat to have Dave show us to use the pressure pot for resin.Your rose turned out Very Beautiful . You might have to put it on your outside table different times. ❤
Just an FYI. If you are going to continue to do deep pours, keep a close eye on your depth. Because you can't see what is happening, you run the risk of thermal cracking when using the pressure pot. Sprague Woodturning is an excellent reference on the subject.
@@monicas310no- the moisture in the flower reacts with the resin, and it won't turn out. You'll get a nasty brown mess, that often won't cure properly! It really is necessary to be fully dry. There are great ways to dry a flower that keeps them looking good- lots of great videos!
I love that Dave is in this video with her! So sweet! ❤❤❤ I would LOVE to have tea with this couple! I think they would be a great bunch to be with! Love it! 😊
Thank you for the trial and error. I will watch them all. I love how your mind works. Oh I love the flower I think it is beautiful. I have wanting to see how a flower would look in resign. Have a blessed day 🥰🥰🥰
Ha! That pressure pot looks so very much like my American™ pressure cooker! Don't have to put air into a cooker, so no compressor, but same wingnut arrangement, pressure gauge, and pressure release rocker (instead of a release valve). Thanks for the demo, Dave!! 👍 Oooh, those red glitters are gorgeous! 😍 The rose is sooo pretty! ❤ It tirned oit really well. @PouringYourHeartOut IDEA: spray artificial - and dyed! - flowers with hairspray or varnish to prevent dye-bleed. I don't think the black base is making it that dark. Would love to see you do this again! 😊❤👍
I love this. Julie! On Temu they have holographic roses. All different colors. They're beautiful. I did one in a small sphere, and forgot to pull it away from the bottom but you could do an amazing one.
Hi Dave 👋. Thank you for your help Dave. This did turn out beautifully. You'll just have to keep it outside when possible lol. This was fun to watch. ✌️❤️🤣 peace, love and happiness
great project video, thank you, beautiful result, imagine any color rose is a candidate, yellow, white, orange, the black bottom as you say might have been clear for more light let into the resin ball, thanks again, that took teamwork , but wow what a result, its gotta weigh 5 lbs, little bit larger than a softball
Awww, I love that Dave helps you with the pressure pot, so sweet. My goodness, this is a chore. Interesting how dark it is. The photo looks great. xoxoxooxoxoxo
I think you should give it another go & since the flower is so large. Try doing it in the larger mold & of course don’t use the black. As always I did enjoy your video. Have a wonderful day 💐
That last pic shows it off beautifully! I’d love to get a pressure pot. Especially for pours like this, those petals can hide a lot of bubbles. I do know for safety reasons it’s important to clamp the lid down very tightly the way Dave did. When I do get one, I’m going to be asking for my hubbies help too, I just don’t have the strength to do that properly. I recently discovered an easier way to de-mold large pieces. If you set the mold resin side down on a silicone oven pad.. ya know the kind with the waffle texture? It won’t slip and the mold can just be peeled off. Thanks for the pressure pot demo and a great project!❤
Very pretty. Ms Julie I’ve bought one of your molds and didn’t received a puffy heart😢😂. Love your vids and ideas. You always give me a smile. Best wishes from South Africa.❤
It's really pretty, I love flowers in resin. A thought, maybe you can drill a hole in the bottom and put a small light in. Don't know the logistics of that idea but worth thinking about 😅
Turned out really pretty despite being a bit too dark of a base. 😅 ...Maybe you can get Dave to help you drill some holes from the bottom all the way up through the black layer and either add LED or fairy lights or just fill the holes with plain clear resin so the light from a light-up base can get through? 🤔 Using the wireless LED lights that need the special wire base to glow might work best for that (Evan & Katelyn used them with the official copper charge wire in a base for game dice but Daniel Cooper recently used one on a Rudolph pendant with a wireless phone charger which you might be able to hide in a pretty resin base too) because you can just drop them in drilled holes around the base of the rose, fill with clear (and maybe a bit more black) resin and it should light up when placed on the appropriate base. 😉👍🏼
Perhaps two lolly sticks and cloths peg the stem lay across the sticks. A stone either side of the peg for stability. The rose is beautiful🤩! I love it! Puffy hearts were an added bonus.❤❤
I love this because it was a learning adventure.i also loved it because it was a happy accident and we learned together not to use black on this type of pour
Beautiful piece! I liked the suggestion to drill into the base&put a light into it, not sure how that'd affect the resin but u cud easily fit a LED or3 into a tiny hole.. if u went far enuf in 2get past the black layer..oooh..i bet it wud b SUPER COOL as an accent/night lite!🤩🥰🌹 wish i had mats 2try a hibiscus(brought 1in 4winter&it bloomed-x8!!-mayb someday I'll hav enuf$$ 4craft materials as sparkly&neat as urs lol..doubt I'll find such a good helper💞dave!💘) Love ur cheerful videos-&ur🩷❤️🧡💛💚💙💜💖!! &thank u 4always makin me smile🤗🫶🤍🩶🤎🖤🫶🖖may u b 4evr blessed 😇
Hi Julie, I have been watching your videos since August when I started resining. You have inspired me in so many ways. Thanks for that. I was watching your video with the rose in a silicone ball. I thought if you used a darning needle through the stem of the rose it should hold it up so the face of the rose wont touch the bottom of the mold. Anyway was just a thought and I would love it if I helped you in any way as you have helped me so much. Thanks again xx.
Have you considered using Chamelion Powder to punch up the flower before putting in the clear? Just make sure you remove loose powder as much as possible. You could tip the flowers with the powder or even with an acryllic or metallic pen, too. Just a couple of ideas I had when you demolded the piece. The black background might not have been the best idea, eh? 😆I wonder if using a silver or even a pearl shade would make things pop even more. I love watching your work, and am a beginning resin artist who also works with precious metal clays and polymer clays for making jewelry. I wish I could afford to get your molds, but I am, alas, in the United States. The shipping is killer! 🤑
Thanks for the tutorial on the pressure pot. Is it for removing bubbles? Why did the rose have to sit inside the pot for 2 days> Is the pot also for curing as well as bubble removal? That rose is just gorgeous!
A rubber band around a popsicle stick will hold the stem exactly where you want it. I wonder if spraying a sealant lightly before-hand on the rose will hold the color better?
It's interesting that you are the 2nd channel I follow who has a husband named Dave, and she is in Australia as well. If the rose was floating, you could have just not filled the mold all the way, then add a top coat after. (Edit: I guess you did use a top coat).
I'm new to all this...but can you please explain why you have to use Resin A and a Resin B? I follow you all the time and I love what you create. You have some creative talent Chica. Love what you do, keep on Glowing. ❤🎉😊.
I just thought u could use a big clothes pin (that clamps) to hold the flower up...if u ever see any at a store..or even the kind that just has a slit thru it...a stem would fit perfectly
I'm wondering if you do a dried rose the same way ? I was glad to see that you were doing a rose sense this turned out so dark can you do another rose ?

Have you ever tried this with a real rose? Does it work?

Pipe cleaner or needle and thread through does stem then tied on a pencil think the needle and thread idea is the best

Thanks Dave for showing is the pressure pot. 😊
Reminds me of those paperweights from years back!!
Hello, Dave! You have a lovely voice.

Love that you show your oops❣️🙏🏼🫶🏼🙏🏼👍🏼keeping it real ❤️🫶🏼❤️👍🏼
Yay! You finally got that third hand you needed. 😁. Keep that fellow. 😁.

Thermal cracking? Gonna go look that up!
I love sprague he is so informative
I love his creations!!! Absolutely mind blowing!!! Plus I love being able to support other Canadians!!!
Is it possible to do this with a living flower? As in a flower that hasn’t been dried?

Would love to see you do this again! 😊❤👍
8:30 stick a pin thru the stem at the depth and prop up on sticks
Oh wow looks fantastic Julie, if you done it with a blue rose that would look amazing, thank you Julie and hubby 😁😁
I love this. Julie! On Temu they have holographic roses. All different colors. They're beautiful. I did one in a small sphere, and forgot to pull it away from the bottom but you could do an amazing one.
Thanks for helping Dave and showing us the pressure pot. I would be like you Julie, not interested in learning to use that one😂

Love roses. Would like to see this.❤
It’s good having a handy man about the house! 😂 great job! Looks great!
I just love hearing your giggles while you are doing your beautiful art ! Hehehe
Awww, I love that Dave helps you with the pressure pot, so sweet. My goodness, this is a chore. Interesting how dark it is. The photo looks great. xoxoxooxoxoxo
Your right clear would be better with a light under it because the rose dose look very pretty and really makes it stand out.😊😊
I like it. I always wondered about a dark base! I'm so glad you did it. I wanted to see how it looked. Great video.
Commented to soon, the paper binder clip is a really good idea also!
I think you should give it another go & since the flower is so large. Try doing it in the larger mold & of course don’t use the black. As always I did enjoy your video. Have a wonderful day 💐
Gorgeous.

Happy Sunday morning!

The rose is beautiful! It would look so pretty on a windowsill. Loved the puffy hearts, too!😍

This is gorgeous, tbat rose is so realistic 😍
Hi Dave 😂 that was cool!🎉
Love it, I use a pressure pot for almost everything. I've never used a Vacuum chamber before, I feel it's to complicated. Lol
Amazing❤🎉
This is a good idea. I like a lot. Thanks for the help Dave!🌹👍
Thanks Dave

You can use a peg, it works really well ❤
I wonder if a white base would make the rose stand out more
Hi Julie, I have been watching your videos since August when I started resining. You have inspired me in so many ways. Thanks for that. I was watching your video with the rose in a silicone ball.

Alligator clips work really well. That's what I use.
I hope you make another one!
Very pretty. You could drill up from the bottom a little and put a LED light inside
Hermosa ! Hay bases con luz para que la figura se aluce desde el fondo ❤
It's beautiful 😍
bubbles are so pretty on flowers looks like dew drops
I think in this case, since the opening is not so wide, you could just clip a wooden clothes pin on the stem
The bowling ball in king pin
Lovely Julie. I think it’s dark because the dye has come out of the rose not because of your black background. 😊
Have you considered using Chamelion Powder to punch up the flower before putting in the clear? Just make sure you remove loose powder as much as possible.

I have made many of those but yes need a clear bottom I even put lights in mine very nice though
You could use a big needle or wire to poke though the steam, where you want it to rest on the mold. Love your videos.
A rubber band around a popsicle stick will hold the stem exactly where you want it. I wonder if spraying a sealant lightly before-hand on the rose will hold the color better?
Pretty though but hard to see. I’ve a lot of roses I dried this year. Need to use them. This would work well. ❤ the concept. 💕
Thanks, Dave! I love this, Julie, I wonder if you just do a clear bottom with the iridescent crinkle paper?
You can use some wire.... Twist ties, jewelry wire to twist the end of the flower, then around the Popsicle sticks.
It's interesting that you are the 2nd channel I follow who has a husband named Dave, and she is in Australia as well. If the rose was floating, you could have just not filled the mold all the way, then add a top coat after. (Edit: I guess you did use a top coat).
I'm new to all this...but can you please explain why you have to use Resin A and a Resin B?
I follow you all the time and I love what you create. You have some creative talent Chica. Love what you do, keep on Glowing. ❤🎉😊.
Pretty
Very beautiful ❤
I just thought u could use a big clothes pin (that clamps) to hold the flower up...if u ever see any at a store..or even the kind that just has a slit thru it...a stem would fit perfectly
Very pretty x❤
The rose looks so nice in the sun. Maybe sand off the black so the inside reflection lightens up?
I'm wondering if you do a dried rose the same way ? I was glad to see that you were doing a rose sense this turned out so dark can you do another rose ?
Love it ❤ could you do this without a pressure pot?
Yes, but you wou would have lots of tiny bubbles 🫧
Sticks will be better with washing peg on top?
With the styrofoam as a frame for the stem, use a corsage pin through the stem to hold it at the desired location.
I would try putting it on a light just to see if a little light does come thru. Just a thought
Is it possible to cut or grind off the black base of the beautiful red rose globe then add a clear base instead?
This might help with colors running, use spray coating for ceramics or spray polyurethane finish!
😊this is a great idea. Could you drill a hole through the black and shine a light on your rose that way? Thanks for sharing this with us.
Hi, have you ever done an insect in resin, and do you have a video as I have a butterfly i have dried I want to use. But not sure how thanks
Maybe just the red glitter in clear resin.
Put it near a window with plenty of light coming in so it shines through it.
A close pin might be a good idea to hold it up
I just started watching and you are in the process of trying to suspend the rose, what about using a clothes pin to suspend it?
I use a clothes pin or chip clip to hold mine in place
I use clamps for so many things
Beautiful. I can see that as a paperweight
You could try to sand the dark resin off and clear coat it.
You could drill a hole up into the bottom and put a light into it?
Use a peg or a crocdile clip to hold the stem up on top of the polystyrene.
Maybe lowering arms on clamp will help hold it center
Will the flower rout since it's not dried before putting in resin?
It was a fake flower
@karenroberts4205 oh wow, it looked so real. I missed her saying it wasn't real. Thanks.
If you soak the rose first and let that cure, maybe the ball will not get stained?
Is a pressure pot required to make this? ❤
What about using a peg to hold it up
Just use a chip clip or a hair clip to keep the rose in place.
Maybe you can use the clothes pin on the stem
