- Hi Everyone. I have been trying to make some giant open bezels for a while and I think I have finally hit on an awesome way to not only make them, but to make the giant open backed bezels without the resin leaking out when they are filled.

This would work great as a faux stained glass project
I was thinking the same thing
Oh yes.
Did you know that you can use black threads instead of drawing those lines in, to make a more delicate effect of veining in the petals? It also works well for insect and butterfly wings
Wow! When you put the flower bezel on the blue piece it really popped! Enjoy your coffee ;)
I've done a lot of tracing pictures with wire. I love the idea of adding resin to what I do as well. This is a great idea to use up the flat wire I have. I do have a tip to pass on. Tape a clear plastic sheet (like a sheet protector) on top of what you are tracing, then as you are tracing, use tape on the wire to keep it in place. It helps a lot, especially with more intricate pieces. Once it is finished, just take off all of the tape. Plus, you can use both the picture and the plastic sheet again. Great for those of us that make multiples to sell! Or if you don't want to wreck the picture.
A fun project to get the creative juices flowing - I do have one teensy tiny little tip to throw in - instead of using tape to connect the wire ends, I’ve had great success using sculpy clay. You would use the flush cutters to get a nice straight cut, line the ends up together and connect on your contact paper, then fasten a small chunk of sculpy to block any resin from leaking out. When finished, remove the sculpy and it can be used again.
Just a note to keep wire straight: take two small blocks of wood and run the wire in between them (while holding wood with slight pressure) 😬👍🏼
This looks fantastic! Another project to add to my ever growing list 😅 I was looking for a way to create a stained glass style piece without acetate stuck to the back of it and this technique looks perfect for that!
Have you tried nail polish stamping on resin? IT WORKS and it's amazing! Especially with metallic polish, you can make some incredible effects that way!
Absolutely amazing... I see butterflies and so many other things that can be done with this!! You did a video some time ago where you made smaller bezals for jewelry and I thought then that if you could make small ones why not any size?? Love that you proved my thinking to be right.
As always stay safe and stay crafty👍👍🔔🔔🦋🦋
Aussie fan here..very inspiring thank you! The idea has so much potential..
Just came back and rewatched this as I couldn't remember how you stuck the bezel down - thought it was glued to acetate, but clearly not! Need to get some clear vinyl. :-) Did you find the 'sticky' side was a matt finish though?
That's really cool! Very pretty. I'm going to have to get some of the wire!
Ohh I'm thinking a flower with a fine glitter in the petals. That blue board you had would look really nice with that moon/resin lamp you made stuck to it. Or the galaxies you made with acitate plastic.
Great idea Steve! Looking forward to seeing more! Thank you.☺️👍🇬🇧
Looks awesome, you could make a template from your x cutter and then bend the wire round it?
I bet this would work using the transfer paper I use with my cricket!
Look fantastic good job ❤️ you got telet God bless you wish you many many more 🎇🎈🎊🎇🎆🎉🎊
Awesome! Thank you so much for showing us this
Trying this. Love the end result.
It’s brilliant Steve TY x
What a great idea! Turned out beautiful. Thanks for sharing!
Great job I watch you all the time, love your ideals!!!
What a smart idea!
Cool!💕 Thanks Steve
That is lovely 😊 beautiful
Thanks steven another fabulous video makes me what to try this too 😃
Really simple and inspiering! I coud do a lot from this? Thanks
Great job! Love the ideas!
Hi Steven! I couldn't find the link for the sticky backed roll of paper. Could you help me with that, please? Your project opens the door for a wide variety of other things. Thank you!!!
You could do different parts to a buid a "stained glass" piece and put in your window, coudn't you? The metal being the "led" and in the end put it all together and pour resin in between the parts to make it all the same level? Maybe you have done that in another video (sorry if I missed that!).
I have made bezels from paperclips. You would be amazed at how easy it is to make cute little hearts🤣
Thank you Steve for giving me way too many ideas now! Lol. My brain just might explode now 😳!!! Such great tutorials and loads of projects.
What a great idea! Love the colours against your other project. Looking forward to seeing any update on the flower if you add one ❤
HI Steve, loved your idea lovely flower I think it would look so nice on the big blue board thanks for sharing. All the best Lin 👍✨
Another great idea.
I didn't see a link for the paper you backed bezel with. Thanks 😀
Do you think that you could still the ends of the wire together with a dot of uv resin? Just a thought. Looks really pretty! Would make good sun catcher! Great tutorial!
Great idea,, thanks
I love this!!! I remember Steve making jewelry shapes with this flat wire!!
So much could be done with this concept! Very cool! Thanks for another great idea and project!
Love it as allways xx
This is brilliant. I fricken love love love it!!! Thanks for the great idea!! Is that jewelry wire wrap wire? It looked wider and flatter than that but it’s not a kind of wire I am familiar with. I am going to have to try this!!!
I sometimes find my "Yank" reverts to yours. YOU are my New Bob Ross 💋💖
Good job
Love your ideas
Great idea !👏👏👏 I have this flat wire so I'll probably try this ! Thank you 💕💕
Kinda reminds me of stained glass! That would be a fun project for a future video!
Perfect timing Steve. I saw you use this wire in another video and gave just sourced some to try. I have it in mind to make a door hanging ‘bead’ type fly curtain and want to make different shapes. I think this wire would be great.
I am going to live my resi dream through you Steve xx
Hi Steve I watched a YT video with another resin DIY and they used a clear plastic sleeve and put resin on the besel and let it cure to the plastic 1st then complete their resin project obviously it takes a bit if using epoxy but just sharing the tricks if your going to do alot of besels xx you inspire me to try new things love your vids
Awesome!!!
That's so cool 😎 😍
Love this, be nice to do a su catcher hanging thing if that make sense
Hi STEVE. I purchased some acetate stickers and was wondering how to use in resin. Do you have a vid on this topic?
Once the resin has cured can it be removed from the resin? I'm looking for an easy way to make flat acrylic shapes.
Sent a bit of cheer👍
I will try a polka doted petals
Love it
Amazing, always make me smile 😀
I didn’t see a link to the large sticky roll you used. (USA)
Do you think the UV resin would have held the flower shut better I'm just wondering maybe it wouldn't have held it at all but the UV resin would have sucked to the regular resin and if you're trying to pop it out afterwards it might not work so well but anyways I'm just blabber and I'm only a couple minutes into the video
Would this be ok for the garden
What about if you 🔨 the metal to make it flat ???
I think I would but it in the garden
I have done this with UV-resin and find that the wire breaks away from the resin. Is there any way to stop this from happing?
We call that contact paper in the United States.
I've tried this method, but the paper came away and the resin leaked when I blasted it with the hot air gun to pop the bubbles. I'll try again with a lighter. Thanks!
Looooovvvveeee
Hey Steve…where did you link the sticky backing for the flower? Very informative and lovely…thank you❤️
I’d like to know too please xx
I believe it is in the description part above. Click where it says more and it will give you more details like where you can purchase the items he has used. The link takes you to Amazon.
@@donnaedwards1698 thank you, I’ve looked there and there doesn’t seem to be a link for this particular item xx
I don’t see it either.
It's probably contact paper as it's known in the US. You can of course find it on Amazon.
Pretty poosey.
