Soo I have been told from a few people that the glycerin molds..Since this is the first time using it I haven’t experienced that myself BUT I will keep an eye on that and update you all as needed. I’m also going to test a few other mixtures🥰
It isn’t the glycerin that’s molds. It’s the water. You just need to make sure to use distilled water 💜
I added just a little alcohol to my mix to avoid any future mold
I've heard it's the water in the mixture also, so you have to use distilled. I use distilled in all my artwork, so I always have it on hand.
Hi did your cup ever mold? I’m curious because I just bought the one you recommended before finding out that it can mold.
@@priscillay713 you will be fine as long as you use distilled water.
For the glitter I use a frosting tip. It goes in a lot quicker. I get it done in less that a minute 😊
Thank you, I’ll give that a try next!
How do you use the frosting tip?
I just bought the same brand of glycerine! If you use purified or distilled water and fill the cup with the solution there shouldn't be any mold or clouding issue with the glycerine.
Hi, are you talking about the vegetable glycerin? I know there’s two kinds, the food grade one and other.
@@annon3485 Food grade. If you use distilled water and seal it properly there should not be any mold.
Thanks so much!😊
So I also make these cups and use the glue method. You need to add more liquid to the glue one, your getting bubbles because if you shake it, it sloshes around making bubbles. Also its much faster using condiment bottles to fill, so much faster than pippets.
My cups liquid flow slower and suspends the glitter longer.
All my glitter is getting sticks at the top of my tumblers. Has this ever happened? Should I just use chunky glitter?? I know this is old but if you read this I’d love your advice
@@sasha7173 what I do is pour some liquid 1st. I use 1/2 water 1/2 clear Elmer's glue. Then put the glitter then finish putting the rest of the liquid till you fill it up. That happened to me the 1st time.
22:50 Baby Oil + Water (Flows slowly, 2nd favorite)
24:03 Glycerin + Water (Flows smoothly, favorite)
25:05 Glue + Water (Clumpy, least favorite)
26:17 Contact Solution (Flows fast like slowglobe, 3rd favorite)
27:16 Product Info
What is fast set
This needs to be the top comment
@@shawntezdavis1735 its resin (part A and part B) that sets in 2hrs to the touch - I think :-)
Thanks
Have you tried baby oil with contact solution?
I did my first one! It turned out so cool. I used my favorite iridescent glitter and threw in some holographic stars as well as some glow in the dark stars! ❤
That sounds gorgeous!
Which solution did you use?
I have been wondering what to use and I am so happy you did this video. Now I know glycerin it will be with the tips from the other designers❤️
Your video was very thorough and informative. It helped me figure out which one I would like to use for my cups. I never heard of using glycerin and that will be the one I use. It does have a neat flow to it and the glitter didn't sink. I did like the contact solution as well. Thank you so much for your time with making this video 🥰
Glycerin is my favorite. I have never used anything other than glycerin. I just love the flo!!!!
How much glycerine did you use?
@@stephaniegonzalez5672 Yes, what is the ratio?
This and the first video Best for beginners. I can't wait to start. Getting my supplies asap. Thank you
When I use a funnel, I found it works faster when I poke the glitter down with a toothpick. I swivel it around the bottom part and goes much quicker.
Thanks for taking the time to make this video. I haven’t made I’ve of these yet but it’s been in my head to do. Just didn’t know what to use for the liquid. Glycerine for sure. Blessings.
It seems if someone wanted the same effect as the contact solution they could just use distilled water? cheaper.
I just ordered some cups to start making these. Thanks for doing these videos, makes for good research as I get set up
What was the mixture measurements? Please for an update on your cups.
Thank you! Not gonna lie... I started to panic hoping I had not bought the wrong stuff to try my first one. I didn't. I bought vegetable glycerin 🙂
Awesome! I love it!
Thank you so much!! I’m just starting to create the tumblers and this was so helpful!!
I love the video, thanks for experimenting for us. One suggestion, the lighting is great for you, but so much glare on your cups we can’t see them clearly.
For some reason I’ve never heard of this happening to anybody else but when I use the glycerin for my Starbucks snowglobe and Tumblrs because I have a small business and I sell them I let one sit for a few months before I actually ended up starting my business and the glycerin ended up molding which was really weird because I’ve never heard that happen to anyone else or maybe just people don’t talk about it but I thought it was so odd, now I use like 80% water and 20% glue but I just don’t know how I feel about it I want that super pretty slow flowing make sure without it being bubbly or molding
I’m so sorry that happened to you. It’s actually pretty common from what I’ve heard but I personally have not have it happen to me. I would try again using distilled water and glycerin and see if that helps. I’ve also head of some people adding a small amount of alcohol to their water. I can’t confirm for sure if it will work for you but those are some methods I’ve seen others talking about.
I’m tempted to see what would happen if you combined contactless fluid with glycerin?
Same! I came to the comments to see if anyone has haha
i’ve never seen that happen with the clear glue. i love using it maybe it’s bc it’s the amazon brand 😂 thanks for the comparison though !
I was told I needed to warm up the water a bit 🥴
I like the contact solution but wonder if you added like 20% glycerin if that would make a perfect solution.
Has anyone tried making these tumblers with mineral oil? I'm looking to make one of these tumblers, and I'm wondering what would be the best solution for the liquid. Thanks!
With watching this tutorial, I can see that I'm going to try using a syringe to insert the liquid in the tumbler. I think it would be easier. You have to have EXTREME patience. That glue would have driven me batty! 😂 I would also use distilled Water and possibly a preservative that can be used in water. Any time you use water, it can mold, and with all the work that goes into these, I don't want mold. 😳
Baby oil is mineral oil with fragrance- so your results would be like her example with baby oil+water.
@@sommerwelling6441 Oh, ok. Thank you!
I know you probably answer this question before but what solution can I use to slow down/suspend the glitter
Can you put this in barrels of those fillable pens? Also do they clay sprinkles hold up in any of these liquid combos?
So when using clear glue it’s 1TBS to 1 cup of hot water. I’ve never seen an issue like what you had and I don’t know how much you used bc I skipped to the end for the results lol but if you didn’t use hot water and on top of that using too much glue would have definitely resulted in the glitter not moving. Hope that’s helpful to anyone who was wanting to try the glue method 🙂
Ive seen 1:1 ratio and it didnt move. How is the flow of the glitter?
No i did not use hot water so that was my issue. Thank you!
Can't you mix the glitter with the liquid to make it easier to getting cup and keep it from sticking to thr sides of cup?
I just watched another video where the glue was 2T to 4c water. When they used 4T to 4c(small snow globes) and it took the glitter 23sec to completely fall and looked clear. How much glue did you use?
Thank you for showing a comparison of each solution ! This is so cool and I’m adding it to my list of projects, personally I like how fluid the glycerin is.
I’m interested in creating a “milky” look with the glycerin solution. Would you happen to know which ingredients will give that effect?
You’re welcome, I’m glad you enjoyed the video
You need acrylic paint for that! You can mix like a drop of white and some pink and mix just a bit though!
Or mica powder maybe?
@@mz__jehhh mica is good as well. It does give a pearlescent reflect, it really is based on preference.
very helpful - thank you!
You’re welcome
i made a cup with water and glycerin and the glitter either stays at the top or at the bottom. i have a clear space in the middle while it sits. the only time the glitter moves is when i shake it. obviously im not going to shake the cup with drink in it. what should i do?
I actually like the Saline for anything Beach 🏝️
I use Elmers glue two part water one part glue and I have no bubbles at all. I think you get bubbles doe to the brand of glue you used. I will my cups all the way to the top.
The baby oil is Target's Up & Up brand
If your want a lava lamp look. Try glycerin with baby oil is the most amazing combination. I made a blood drip tumbler look awesome. Try it and let me know how much you love it !!
I definitely have a new video coming soon using some new solutions!🥰
I have a question…my cups are leaking from the top rim of the tumbler…how do I seal that? So that I don’t lose liquid while sealing the bottom…thanks in advance
What is the facet?and can you use all double wall tumblers . Can you put the name of facet and silicon on a list. They were beautiful. I like the glycerin one the best
Wished I saw this vide b4 making mine. Great vid
Hi this is a awesome video can I use the epoxy risin instead of the fast set
what did you use to close the hole of the cup. im struggling so hard to get mine to not leak !!
Hi, how do you avoid mold growing with the glycerin mixture ?
I was told distilled water can help to prevent molding. Since this video non of my cups have not molded and I did not use distilled water.
What brand of rotator motor do you have?
Can you use a tervis tumbler do this? My boyfriend loves Tervis and I wanna make a custom one for him but I can’t find anyone that’s used one the tervis tumbler
Do you have to use distilled water or just regular water?
Love it thank you!
Whats the glycerin to water ratio?
Thank You For This Video!!
I wonder what would happen if you replaced the water with the contact solution in the other mixes.
What cups are those and what are the measurements for the glycerin
Do you fill the cup all the way with fluid ???
I bought a cup to try, but didn’t work :(. It started leaking from the side of the top where the lid goes :(
What fast set did you use on the bottom?
What size drill bit did you use?
Can you do part 2
Please help I used fine glitter and the half and half glycerin and water mix but all my glitter clumped at the top. What did I do wrong?
I’m sorry that happened to you! Using fine glitter is the problem, it usually does get clumpy. Next time you want to use chunky glitter instead.
So what are the measurements for water and glycerin?
1/4 water 3/4 glycerin
The more water the more flow you will have
Hi, may i ask what size drill bit did you use? Also, can baby oil be used by itself (without water)? Thank you!!
I was wondering the same with the baby oil and just doing straight baby oil
I’ve done straight baby oil just fine!
I saw a video of yours awhile back. You used glue stick to cover the hole. Do you not use glue sticks anymore?
In a pinch I do but I like how the silicone sealed it better.
Hi, Do you have to mix the Glycerin with water, or can you just use it straight?
Hi, you want to mix it because the glycerin alone is too thick
Important‼️ It has to be distilled water so it doesn’t get mold.
Do they evaporate?
I personally love the way the glycerin one looks but I love the flow of the glue. To avoid the glitter sticking to the top has anyone add small amount of glue to the glycerin mix to get the glue flow? Not sure how it will turn out.
You can mix them together for slime, so I'd assume they should work fine in this also 😊
not her using the most expensive contact lenses liquid (at least in latin america) that I struggle every month to buy for my own contact lenses lmaoooo
Omg good I wasn't the only one that saw that lol
To get the bubbles out of the glue and water use alcohol the bubble will be gone in seconds.
I stopped using v. glycerin because people were saying it was molding.... I still have a cup that I made with it for myself... and it hasn't molded yet so idk...
Mine hasn’t molded either.
@@crissycreatesofficial I see the comments now about the distilled water... I think I just used bottled water... I guess we will see what happens :) thanks so much for the comparison though!!!! It was super informative.
Can someone please share the ratio for water/glycerin, thank you
how much glycerin do you put in each cup
Hi guys whats the amount of water and glycerin that goes into a cup like 8oz half and half
Also do i add alchol
50/50 ratio for your glycerin to water.
You don’t want to add alcohol.
So u do more water the oil and more water then glycerin? I've wasted 2 cups already cause the solution don't glow I did 3 parts glycerin and 1 part water for one cup and 1/4 glue 1/4 glycerin and half cup water and it still dont glow.. also how much to fill up to?
I did a few tumblers with 1c warm water to 1tbsp of clear glue. Helps the glue mix better and very few bubbles when adding it to the tumblers. They flowed really well.
Is that 1 Cup.warm Warter
What was the water to glycerin ratio?
I'm glad you did this...it saved me from having to do this experiment myself!!! I've been learning how to make these types of tumblers and I'm wondering if there is a reason you didn't fill the entire void with the different solutions? Is there a reason you left as much air-space as you did?
I was wondering this too. I know you have to allow space for the glitter to move but I thought it could have been filled more with the solutions.
Most people do after about a day or so, the solution needs some time to air out depending on which one you go with and typically from the videos I’ve seen, it takes at least 12-24 hours for any bubbles stuck in the glitter to come out to the top so when you come back to the cup the next day you’ll see it’s lower than how you filled it. Then you can add more to your liking. But I know some people like to have a lower amount of liquid like she did
Glue with water is my favorite! Also it's 1 part glue to 3 parts water. And you also have to let it de-gass for an hour.
How much of glue and water would you say? Maybe 3/4? 1 cup?
@@jocelynparedes2292Wouldn't it depend on the size of the jar you're using?
I love all your videos and this one was so helpful! I’ve been getting ready to start snow globe tumblers and out of all the videos I’ve watched on the different methods, nobody has done one video comparing all the different methods at once, so thank you for making this! And thank you for using the same cups and glitter for all the methods so we can really get a good comparison of how each method looks when finished, the perfect way to compare. Now I am off to make my own tumblers, thanks again for such a great video!
Thank you so so much!
I love how you added glitter to your resin to seal the bottom brilliant idea. Thank you for testing these out for me
Thank you so much for this. I have wanted to try snow globe tumblers next and was wondering what solution to try!! I think I’ll go with the glycerin! I loved the flow in it!! Awesome video!
Have you made one yet? How did you like the glycerin?
I like the comparisons. My favorite is contact solution mixed with glycerin for a great flow.
Omg! I’ll have to give that a try next lol! There’s just endless possibilities😄
What is the ratio you used for contact solution and glycerin?
@@draginlowpos I use 50/50 to start with. You can add more of either one as you go. If want better flow add extra glycerin and if you want more clarity add more contact solution.
This has been very helpful to see 4 at once instead of separate videos. Once you got the dixie cups and had them labeled I immediate thought this is just like a science fair experiment!!!
I’m so glad it was helpful! Yes it was definitely more of an experiment type video rather than a tutorial but I had a great time with it💖💖
Great presentation of comparative study. This is gold. Very professional.
Thank you! I’m so glad you enjoyed it🥰
This was so helpful! I've seen different tutorials, but no one has ever compared them side by side. So helpful! I really like the look of the glycerin best! Thank you!
So thankful for you making this video! I tried the glue and water and I think that with your mixture you may have added too much glue. I have yet to find a good ratio to mix but I've noticed that if I fill up the cups to the max with no room for air pockets, it is a better outcome for the glue mixture. Shaking glue and water is going to give you the bubbly mixture that you are getting here. When the glitter is stuck at the top of the cup I hold it in my palms and shimmy the cup back and fourth quickly and it disperses the liquid into the glitter better. Hope this helps! Thanks again for making this awesome comparison! I really enjoyed it!
Thank you for making this video. I was about to attempt to make a tumbler for my daughter and I appreciate the information. Keep the videos coming! You're doing an awesome job!! Peace and Blessings!!
The glue and water needed to be mixed with glitter first
I wish you would've shown how you drilled it?
I have used both the glycerin and water and glue and water and both work great! The key to the glue and water is using 1/4 glue to 3/4 water ratio, rather than the 50/50 like the glycerin.
Thank you! I will definitely try again using less glue and see if I like it better.
I also think mixing the glitter in the solution before can help keep it from clumping in the cup.
Water needs to be hot too
What brand do you use?
Can you add glitter with the glue and water?
For me , the glycerin clumped up my fine glitter and there were chunks and all of it rose to the top if it sat still . So basically there would be some glitter at the bottom, the middle would be clear and the top would be the glitter (turned into chunks) at the top .
The glue , for me that’s my favorite . I didn’t have any trouble putting the mixture into the cup using a syringe . I filled it up all the way to the top. As much as I possible could do there aren’t as many bubbles . ☺️
I agree!! I just tried the glue and water and I like it but I think I could have used more glue. I haven't found a legit ratio of glue to water so I'm testing waters. I also fill up my tumblers to the max, no room for air pockets whatsoever. I don't like that way they look half full of liquid. What ratio have you been successful with the glue and water mixture? thanks!!
@@tbpaslay try 1c warm water and 1 tbsp of clear glue!
I used the glycerin and it clumped as well. I’m super upset…
Thank you for this!
I like how you added glitter to the epoxy seal!
Thank you!!
@@crissycreatesofficial no issue with the epoxy lifting on top of the silicon seal?
With the glue, you need to put a few drops of 90% alcohol in with the mis to prevent bubbles. I'm not sure about any other solutions bc I haven't tried them. But personally the glue I have tried.
Woaaahh i have expired contact solution i think this is good way not to waste it..
Tried the glycerin last night. This was my first time doing this. This morning my tumbler appears to have less liquid and that creates an airy space at the top. Your presentation was great. I appreciate your effort to share your gifts so others can be blessed also.
I watched someone else do this and what they said was that there is a lot of air in the glitter so once you shake it up by putting your finger over the hole let it settle, add more liquid to top and repeat a few times until there is no more space for liquid
How much glysaring to how much glitter please?
what about baby oil by itself ? i’ve seen other shakers with just baby oil and seems to work good , but i haven’t seen straight baby oil on cups .
Thank you for taking the time to compare these. I like how you used glitter for the bottom in the fast set.
Thank you! I’m so glad you enjoyed the video!
Would you do a comparison of glitter types next? I am wondering if the problems I've been having with my glitter tumblers stem from the type of glitter I'm using. I'm using extra chunky but it is just sitting there and not falling.
I am really glad that you did this. thank you.. I was curious how they all flowed.. I have been looking for a slow-moving mixture.. I loved the glycerin flow.. But I am now nervous about the mold.. LOL I currently use glue and water.
Hello and Thank you for the amazing video. I like the oil also. How much of glycerin do add to water?
I think she said 1/2 and 1/2 or I saw that somewhere.
TY. This was hugely helpful for me. I’m new to crafting. New Nana needing an outlet when I’m here unable to get out.
Thank you for sharing this wonderful information. I’ve been struggling with the storyboard tumblers so I wanted to try these. So I purchased TERVIS tumblers, very similar to the Maars ones. I was wondering how to seal it when finished, love the silicone option. Can’t wait to make them. I loved the glycerin option as it clears up so nicely. Thank you.
I found if I use mineral oil instead of baby oil it doesn’t get cloudy.
Thank you! I’m going to have to make a part two with all the new solutions I’ve been hearing about🥰😄
Wow! I’m Gonna use the mineral oil to
Did you use water with it ?
Mineral oil is baby oil without the scent. No scent would probably be better with plastic.
Will the loctite drip in? I tried using Furntirue bumpers to plug, and they are too big or thick for the cups I use. Without it, my gorilla glue epoxy would drip in and it doesn’t work very well. Will loctite take care of this? Thanks in advance!
I like the glycerin also i use to make snow globes and that was the one i liked,Thank you for teaching us,
Glycerine is my favourite
