    It is beautiful. Check your table top and make sure it doesn't have any little dips in it. That's all I can think of as they both have the same dipped area.

    Just a suggestion, but maybe just a solid layer of the polyurethane over the flower layer. That would eliminate the white and clear layers since polyurethane dries white anyway. It would also make your project extremely tough. Good luck! It still turned out very pretty.

    I think that it is from too much heat when the polyurethane is curing because it expands as it cures, and if your resin was not cured thoroughly it could have contributed to the heat as well. I love how it turned out!! I have this mold and still have not made it yet....LOL....I need to give it a go! Thanks for sharing -Beverly

    It’s so Beautiful ❤❤❤ I do think, like others that no alcohol should be used. I’m thinking make it in reverse. Polyurethane first (will be the back, then do your resin in a thin coat to add your embellishments. Then you can add your stickers then top coat. Just a thought. Steve McDonald on his latest video, showed making a phone stand with putting heavy duty wires between the card stock he used and resin. Was a great idea. Don’t give up my friend, you will figure it out as always ❤❤❤❤

    Hello my friend. I have that mold and have enjoyed watching you make yours. Simply gorgeous. I have not yet made mine but I brought some milled fiberglass from Amazon after watching a video (can’t remember who). They added it to epoxy to strengthen it in cases like this one. I have not tried the mold or the fiberglass yet but I wanted to at least give you the suggestion.
    Keep up the great work. Your channel is fantastic as are your crafts.
    Much love

  • @donnadlb1
    @donnadlb1 2 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

    You could try using eco resin but it needs to either be added when the epoxy is still soft but not enough for it to sink or make it face up because epoxy will bind to cured eco but the other way around. Eco resin is very strong and has no flexibility.

      @@epoxym3that I did just started working with resin. So far I’ve only been working with UV doing some smaller projects. I’ve bought some epoxy, Mix2Mold & tons of molds, but I’m just not ready for anything else yet. See I’m disabled & I live in chronic pain 24/7 from a car accident in 1986. It left me with nerve & blood vessel damage in my neck, shoulders & my left arm. So the more I move my arms the worse the pain gets. I try my best to ignore it, but there’s times I just can’t. So that’s why I’ve bought what I’ve bought. That way when I’m having a decent day & I want to try doing something I’ll have it. I also live in Louisiana & my house was just damaged by Hurricane Francine. So unfortunately I’m dealing with that too. Ok sorry for writing you a novel, but I just wanted to explain myself. Have a blessed day. 😊
