About my channel: Hey guys! I'm Heather, the crazy lady behind ArtsyMadwoman! I'm a resin artist & I preserve flowers in resin along with creating & testing out all kinds of fun crafty thangs! I hope you subscribe & stick around for the mad things we're going to do ;D - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
So - I got married a few weeks ago. While I was prepping for the wedding I heard that there were ways to preserve my flowers. On Etsy I saw that people cast flowers in resin for $200+ and thought, “I can do that myself!”
Fast forward to me YouTubing how to put a wedding bouquet in resin, and now I’m binge watching all your videos while waiting for all my resin supplies to come in the mail 😂
You’re the best Resin-ist on TH-cam by far. Your creativity, the way you work, the way you teach. And you’re super chill but simultaneously super fun attitude :)
Thank you for everything you do!!
You got me super interested in working with resin a while back. I love it so much and I am so excited because I just sold my first piece!! 🎉
Brianna Kay congrats!
Aww yaaass! That makes me so freakin happy!! Congrats on your first sale!! That’s so exciting 🎉💕
I have no need for this information, but I'm definitely going to watch it all. 😂 Me: "Mm hm, yes. I know some of those words."
Lmao!! Omg I love that hahaha thank you for watching!! ❤️❤️❤️
@@ArtsyMadwoman I just got this in a couple days ago and its GREAT! It's the biggest one I've gotten so far.. DEFINITELY a must for Resin working! Lol.... (Silicone Mat)

Ps. I LOOOVE your channel soooo much! XOXO 🥰❤🧡💛💚💙💜
I'm a brand new resin artist and your videos have been SO helpful to me. You've given me the info and the confidence to actually start making the art that I'd only been dreaming about making for months. Thank you for your wonderful videos!
Thank you for making me fall in love with resin. Your work is what inspired me to take up this art. As a beginner, I believe this video is really really helpful. You rock woman! Love from India.
Thank you for mentioning safety bc not a lot of big resin artists will mention it but it’s so important! I want to add that even if a resin says “low VOC” or “no odor” that doesn’t mean it’s totally safe. If you’re not sure what is in the resin you’re using, google “(your resin brand) safety data sheet” and it’ll give you all the information about protective gear and health hazards. Most resins will mention respirators, gloves, and ventilation. You should always be wearing a respirator and gloves for your health! thanks again 💙
Also, just because you can’t smell it doesn’t mean it’s safe. And just because you haven’t had a reaction to epoxy yet, it doesn’t mean you won’t in the future. (This is coming from somebody with a resin sensitivity from improper protection)
Thank you for explaining the casting resin/hard cast resin aspect. I didn’t know the difference 😊
Instead of aiming your heat gun at your cup while mixing, get yourself a candle warming plate from Walmart and sit your cup or whatever you’re mixing in on it for a minute or two before mixing. It works so amazing! I used to warm my epoxy in warm water before pouring into my measuring cup but like you said it’s so messy and so much unnecessary work! The candle warming plate is a game changer!
Hi so I’m definitely intrigued but I hope you see this because I’m wondering when you say “sit your cup or whatever you’re mixing in on it for a minute or two before mixing“ is that the two parts together in the cup and then set it on the warmer before mixing?
@@bigtimetorifan hi! I measure out a and b in 2 different medicine cups. Before I pour part a into part b I sit both cups on the warming plate. So I warm them separately. Hope that helps.
@@EmilyMineDesigns ohhh ok gotcha! Great idea. I’ll be giving it a try. Thanks for reply ☺️
@@EmilyMineDesigns can I ask what brand warmer you use that fits both cups on it at same time? Thank you
Thanks! I’m not sure how I haven't quit resin yet. I just wanted to save flowers from a memorial. After accidentally finding you again, I now see my oopsies and I’m so grateful! You have saved me a lot of anxiety and frustration! I had subscribed to you ages ago and now I remember why. Keep this up please! You are a great teacher and you realky helped ease my nerves about resin.
BEEN WAITING ON THIS SAFETY SECTION! thank you!!
watching your videos all night tonight before I go buy supplies! i plan on preserving roses and flowers from my grandfather's funeral.
You are right about the warm tub of water , it’s a hassle but it does work. If you guys live in colder climates I suggest you give you bottle of resin a warm bath for suggest amount of time . It works great
You are legit one of the only people I watch the FULL ads for!!!! Thank you for all you do!!!!
Awe you’re in your new space! I love it and love how you love it♥️
I know this video is 2 years old, but I am just getting started in Resin and Thank you so much for this!! and I adore you!! I have been binge watching you for days and I love how informative your videos are. So Please keep making more
Heather here is a TIP for you! Get a small & Large LINT ROLLER for clean-up! I use a Largerone for my silicone Mat! ( I have a LoliVefe Mat) and the small one for larger molds!
Thank you so much for this video! It was so super helpful! I’m just getting into resin art and I love it! You are truly an inspiration and a joy to watch 🤩🥰
Literally love you ❤️
Thank you for being so positive and all your info. I'm fairly new with resin and adding this into my my art background & honestly nervous! You made me feel so much better. 😘💕
Thank you for being so thorough. I had nearly given up resin - but you've inspired me to try again.
thank you so much for this video! I've just discovered your channel and I'm completely obsessed with resin's art
I use a large and x large dog food mat. Has a great edge to catch spills. Good for paint pouring too!
That’s a great idea! Thank u! Genius!
I go to the dollar store and buy like 5 placemat settings....oh and also serving trays for parties for putting filled molds on to transport to my drying table
I've started working with resin a couple months ago and your videos helped me learn so many things. I love that you also go into detail into the mistakes and share everything with us. Thanks :)
I wish I knew some of these when I was doing resin 10 years ago hahaha. Now I live vicariously through you :)
So excited- flowers are “ ma thing “ too. 🌹
Some of the tips are things I have recently learned myself experimenting, but you explain it all beautifully! This is a perfect video! Thank you so much ♥️
🤗 Thank you for this video! I am already on my 3rd resin project. All thanks to your tips!! I make faux leather earrings and wanted add resin ones as well. Congratulations on 100k💜
Thank you for your videos. I so enjoy watching and learning from your experiences, and you always make me smile! Have a very Merry Christmas!
Congratulations on 100k I use the heat gun technique after seeing you doing it and it works brilliantly. I have only been working with resin for a few months, you have taught me so much and I thank you for that. Your new space is amazing 😍
Omg I love you I found you a couple of days ago and since then I have watched every single one of your videos and I have invested into resin supplies and now I am obsessed 🤩
Edit I’m first for the first time
I’ve been pouring for about three weeks and I appreciate all these helpful hints so much!
I just did my first resin pour today into some pendant molds! Your videos have really got me inspired to just go for it and try things out so thank you! I can't wait to see how my stuff comes out tomorrow :D
You seem so happy in your new space! 🌺🌺💖💖 Love this video as I am just getting started and it provided answers to a lot of questions I've had that were holding me back. Thank you for all that you do to help us! 🤗😍🌺💖🌺
I was looking for this video and these answers a couple months ago when I started working with resin. 😅 I eventually found all the answers myself but this is great because it confirms what I learned is correct and I can share with friends when they have questions. Thank you so much!
First off, I don’t do comments, it’s not really my thing, but on this occasion I just felt I had to. I have only just found your channel and I have to say I love it. ❤ You are so engaging that yours is my go to channel for anything resin. I love your down to earth, get stuck in attitude, and evident passion for your crafts. ❤
Thank you for so much for all the invaluable information and fun demonstrations which you have a knack of achieving without boring the literal pants off me 😂 well done and thank you again.
I look forward to your next resin workshop., until then wishing you lots of happiness in your new home.and the most perfect day 😊
you're so amazing I usually do not comment on videos but this one gave me such a boost to go for it. How you explained things was so great! you go girlll
This is AMAZING, thank you!! I made my very first resin work today after weeks of reading up and purchasing all the bits. But of course in practice alot more questions popped up, and you have solved them in this one video!! The Duct tape for cleaning molds 🙌 reusable mixing jugs and stirrers also a great tip. Thank you!!
I am going for it, been doing for a month now and a lot of your videos inspired me to do it! I have hallways been creative so went for it! Ur work is absolutely beautiful by the way!!
I love this video! I’ve been watching lots of different videos and trying to learn as much as I can. You’re just so awesome!
So much fun. New to resin and having so much fun
Great video- I just started doing the deep pour resins. I’ve used resin in the past to seal my acrylic paintings- but this is a whole new world for me! 😀your videos are awesome and so is your work. ❤️
You have helped me so much to really try things. I learned several new things from this video. Thank you for sharing your passion.
I’m so glad you did this video I do tumblers and have a bunch of molds and was looking for a different resin
Thank you for all the tips, I really want to start working with resin. This is the 1st video i've seen that made me aware to wear a respirator. It is now on the list of supply items. I found you about a month ago and I love your channel.
I’m 65 and I love watching you. You are a breath of fresh air. Favorite resin TH-camr
Literally was looking for something like this in your channel yesterday. Thanks for reading my mind!!!
I am preparing to work with molds and your video has been cray helpful!!!! Thank you!!!!
U are soo informative and encouraging!!! Thank u for being ur wonderful self and blessing us with the knowledge!! Love from a soul sister!! 💞💞💞
Hey Girl! You just popped up on my TH-cam list so of COURSE I had to watch your vids! Thanx SO much for all you fo, your tips/tricks & most importantly, your encouragement! I appreciate you & you now have a new subscriber! Keep it up...i LOVE your vibes! 🥰
No thank you! Love watching you happily talk about your crafts and giving us tips, tricks, and inspiration to keep crafting! Keep up the good work! :D
Thank you so much for tip #10!! I watched a video recently that freaked me out and killed my excitement to try working with resin and now this is helping me to just start my first project 💞
You are still so amazing and thank-you for all the tips. Love your own place.
The rolled up tape trick is a godsend for cleaning up glitter ANYWHERE. Spilled it on the table? The floor? Yourself? TAPE.
Your videos have helped me out in so many ways. Thank you ❤️❤️
What an awesome video! Some of these things I learned the hard way, like ruining molds by using a torch, but you had so much good info that I never knew, especially about using different types of resin for casting, top coating, etc. I'm now a subscriber and will probably spend the weekend catching up on all of your videos. Thank you! :)
I have Alumilite amazing cast resin I’m going to try to make some pieces with, BUT for the future I’m going to be investing in Counter Culture now that I’ve watched dozens of videos of you using it. It is so crystal clear and I want to me able to make as beautiful pieces as you do. 💜
Thank You So Very Much For All Of The Effort You Placed On Safety! You Singlehandedly Brought Me To My Senses About These Issues! Thank You Thank You Thank You!
I just started resin last night....thank you so much for your vid ....iv been binge watching all ut stuff.....beauyifull art u do!!!!💞

Had a really tough day today so when I realised it was Wednesday, I got excited for the first time all day. And came on to TH-cam to see you.

"the wet look" ... instead of juicy? LOVE all your videos! Never miss any!
I loved “juicy”!
Glossy?
Juicy was perfect lol
Happy 100k! Congratulations on your creative space as well. When I started resin recently I bought silicone cups and reusable sticks to save the earth. Thanks to the stick in the cup and tape it’s doable. Just need to find me a proper mask hopefully reasonable price with this pandemic. Can’t wait to see what create next! I’ve been having fun working with resin and my rare houseplant blooms! 💚
Love your videos always!!!❤️❤️
Thank you Heather , do you know that because of you I start buying resin to start working and have fun . Your personality is sweet and you let me watch your videos again and again . Wish you the best my dear
Awww! Yay! Thank you soo much! ❤️
I'm a "Beginner" at this, and your advice is great!
Hello, I just started using resin. I love it so much. The only thing i was having a problem with was cleaning my molds and cups. I can't believe i didn't think about tape!! What a great idea!!!! Thank you so much!!! I just started watching your videos and i love you!!! You are such a beautiful person inside and out. Thank you for the tips!!! They are very helpful!!!
Very good info. You have really come along way especially when it comes to the safety aspect. Thanks. Blessings
CONGRATULATION!!! Thank you for this informative video! I'm just starting to get into using resin and for me, I thought all resins were created equal! Though, I did learn to use uv resin for very small projects and the 2 part resins for larger projects but now, with your video, I know that there is more to resin then meets the eye!
You are SO helpful! I'm wanting to preserve a rose from a funeral bouquet and I want to do a few "test" molds first. Love your channel!
Thanks, this helps a lot. I have everything except the respirator and your right. I just need to do it!
I am beyond excited to be early! So excited to learn about casting resin
Thank you for all that you share from your experience working with resin
The tape cleaning tip is wonderful, thanks!
I am a new fan of yours. I got here because I am getting married and was trying to think of a cool way to preserve my flowers. I have been trying to make coasters and patio stones using cement and obviously the material is not translucent and it was not giving me the results that I wanted (at least for coasters). I have seen people post vids on TikTok and I figured I would look resin up in TH-cam and found your channel. Watching you is helping me learn and has made me really think about trying resin as a medium.
You are the reason I got in to resin crafting. I love your videos. And thank you for all the info
Aww yayy! That makes me happy! Thank you so much! ❤️
Your tenth point was so encouraging for me. Thank you so much 💕😊
so glad I came across this video! thank you so much for your detailed information
you are so stinking adorable ! thanks for the tips! Im just starting with resin tomorrow and Im so excited !
I feel like I've grown as a resin artist because of your videos and willingness to share. And not just sharing the gorgeous pieces you make but sharing the "fails" too. That part is hard for me to rebound from and i think the first video i ever saw of yours was the first resin fails video you made and i remember thinking "wel heck, if she can have a bag fulla fails and still continue on to make gorgeous pieces, i can too!" I love how encouraging you are for people to [safely] just try it. A fail is still a great lesson for what not to do next time. And if you learn something from any situation, its not truly a fail, is it? Love you gal. love the studio. Keep the videos coming!!!!
Thank you so much. I got a lot of great information. I'm one of those people that have had some resin for a bit. Thanks to your encouragement I'm going to give it a shot!
So just getting organised for my first go at resin, and you are up to 178k subscribers, well done! 78k in less than a year. I loved your top ten and I subscribed and will be watching lots more. I think I can learn heaps from you!! no doubt, the biggest thing though, is your sense of fun just got me in. you smiled nearly all the way through this top 10 and you really do look like you love what you are doing, so I will be watching you enjoy and be learning at the same time. You are great encouragement!! thank you!!
I have been interested in working with resin for a few years now and after discovering you, I have filled my amazon cart with a few starting items to make my first few sets of DnD dice! I am so excited to dip my toes into this new hobby!!! I have loved your tips and thank you for sharing all the mistakes you've learned from, you are such a beautiful person!
I am so happy for your success! You so deserve it!
I need to start making pretty things 😊❤️
You are so awesome thank you for this video now I have to go get my notebook 🥰
Best tips video ive seen, answered some questions for me and solved some issues i was having thanks
Thank you !!! Definitely needed it ! Muah !!!!
Congrats on 100k heather! You deserve every one! Love your channel and your art ( resin and makeup both!) 🎈🎉❤️
Thank you soo much!! 😭❤️
I'm about to start using resin for very first time, so thank you for the helpful info!!!
Thank you for all this information! I am a newbie and this has been enlightening ! Alot of useful information!
this video was SOOOOOOO helpful
Thanks for explaining the different types of resin uses. Haven't gotten into it just yet. Only bought a geode mold. Don't want to have to buy a lot of stuff right now. I do have lots of craft paint.
I enjoy watching you!! I have yet to start a resin project. I have all my material so I will soon. This video was extremely helpful for me as a beginner. Thank you!
I put on this video to listen to while I torturously try and remove cured resin specks from all my measuring and mixing cups. And after struggling with one for the first few minutes, I switched to duct tape the moment you mentioned it, and finished more than half a dozen cups during the rest of the video. And still had time to start prepping my next project. THANK YOU!!! 😻❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
I love watching you! You’re adorable and I can’t wait to give resign art a try.
These tips are so helpful! Thanks 🌸
