Love your snails. I had similar problems when I made mine :)
😀😀 we live and learn don’t we 😀😀👍❤️
@@Toonpish yes, I always seem to learn the hard way :)
We all do that from time to time and I think sometimes it’s the best way 😂😂😂
Hi Wendy! I’ve been eyeballing this mold for awhile. It’s nice to see it other than in an advertisement. Cute little guy! TFS❣️
I’m glad you found it useful 😀😀 apparently there are two sizes and this is the large one. But I only saw one 🤷♀️
Brian is stunning. I love how you show things that don't always go right first time. I've learnt to treat first time with a new mold as practice to see how it works.
Exactly Sharon. You always need to try it out first and see how things look and work out. Thank you 😊 👍❤️
Isn't it funny that we can see things like snails, spiders, etc.outside in our yards and think, 'Eww' - but when we make resin projects depicting them it's very cool! Fantastic job on Brian!
😀😀😀 you are so right 😀😀 I must admit when I was a child I used to play with snails 😂😂😂 I thought they were so cute 😀😀👍❤️ I know I’m strange 🤷♀️
I used to play with snails too! They are cute even if a little drooly!😂😂❤
Yes 👌😀❤️
Brian is beautiful and in red my favorite color. Please keep inspiring.
I don’t plan on stopping 😀😀😀 thanks so much AChinnery ❤️😀
Hi Wendy! What can I say: wonderful work! I like both snails. The red snail is fantastic, but so is the one with clear glass stones! Very, very good. Thank you Sabina 🐌💞
Thank you Sabina 😀😀😀 they both have an appeal for me too 😀😀👍❤️
There were some great tips in this video! Thanks for including the "fails"! I have smaller snail molds and those antenna-eyes are a real battle! Thanks Wendy!
Thank you so much Robyn 😀😀😀 I think it’s important for people to see the good and the bad things 😂😂 and it’s great to learn from others mistakes too 👍❤️
Hi Wendy! I am absolutely certain that all of us have had that “oh man” moment in our resin creations. I love that you share yours with us! I am soooo in love with Brian!!! So much so I went straight away and ordered my mold so I could make a “Brian” of my own.. Thanks again for sharing your creative world with us!!! Blessed day to you!
Oh wow that’s such a compliment for sure 😀😀😀 I hope you enjoy your Brian as much as I love mine 👍❤️ have a great week 👍❤️😀
Loving that vivid pop of red
It’s gorgeous right 😀😀😀 thanks Chrissy 😀👍❤️
These two are just brilliant Wendy, I remember Brian from the magic roundabout and Zebedee and Dougal 🤣. Thank you for sharing 💕
Dougal was cool 😀😀😀 thanks Jan 😀😀❤️❤️
Hello again Wendy, hope all is well with you and yours. One of the best lessons you have given is that it is OK to mess up now and again. I think it's great that you are not afraid or try to hide your little goofs. I thoroughly enjoy the work you do and your channel to me is one of the best. Be well my friend across the pond.
Hello Forest 👋👋👋
I do mess up like everybody does and I learn from it so it’s good to show. I really think it’s important for people to know that messing up is part of the fun and it’s good 👍 perfection is only achieved when everything that could go wrong is avoided and that takes a lot of learning.
One day I might get there 😂😂😂
But I’m not bothered if I don’t 😂😂 it’s all about the fun for me 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️
I just love these snails, Brian is fabulous
Thank you so much Susan 😀😀👍❤️
I love them both but Brian's colors are my favorite 😍
Thanks Natasja 😀😀 I love Brian 😀😀❤️
Hi Wendy, Honestly if you didn’t say about your mistake on number 1 snail 🐌 you definitely Wouldn’t know I thought they both turned out super cute 👍 thanks for sharing 🐌🐌👍❤️
Thank you so much Linda 😀😀👍❤️
Wow they both look stunning I absolutely love them both !! Another fabulous resin project Wendy !! X
Aww thank you so much 😀😀 you are very kind indeed 😀❤️
Eewww snails lol, these are great Wendy! I love the red and blue best though x As always, I love watching your videos, full of information and tips x Debs
So glad you enjoyed it Debs 😀😀👍❤️
Love love love Brian. The transition of colour from the front to back is fab & the little red specks add something really cool to him. Fabulous work as always.
Thank you Joe 😀😀 I actually really like his freckles 😂😂
Loved these snails Wendy, especially the ‘Brian’ like one! They are great moulds 😊
Thanks so much Dawn 😀😀 definitely a fun thing to make 👍❤️
Oh Wendy Brian is just so darn cute, I love him. The other one is cool too though 👍🏻👍🏻
Aww thank you honey 😀😀👍❤️
Adorable snails, Wendy! 👏🏻 That red is stunning, you’re right. Thanks so much for the tips. 😁Stay safe.
Thanks so much Diana 😀😀❤️
While I think the first snail looks more natural, Brian is stunning! I absolutely love that red!!! As usual Wendy, another great video. I don't have the snail, but I have a turtle, lizard, and frog. I think the foils would look awesome in my turtle. I'm going to give it a try. Thankyou so very much for all you show us. Without you and a few others, I would never have given resin a try a year and a half ago. I'm completely and happily hooked!!! 💜💜💜
Oh I do hope you enjoy your turtle foils it sounds awesome 😀😀😀 and I’m truly happy that you enjoy your resin craft 😀😀❤️👍 happy crafting 👍
I love BOTH of these Wendy! They are absolutely amazing!
Thank you so much Lori 😀😀👍❤️
Another stunning creation. I’ve been after a snail mould for a while and when you called him Brian it was a sign I had to get it as by hubby is Brian. 🤣 unfortunately amazon have sold out but will keep a look out for it. Thanks Wendy, you’re so talented x
Brian is a good name 😀😀 thanks Dorien 😀 you will love it when you get it 👍❤️
Love the red foil in the shell.. these are so cute!
Thank you so much Pam 😀❤️
That red foil looks stunning , love your videos you explain every little bit
Tfs xxx
Aww thank you so much honey 😀😀❤️👍
Ooh these would make great garden or plant pot ornaments. Great job as always Wendy.
They would 😀😀😀 all my plants don’t survive I’m afraid 😱 I don’t have green fingers 😳😞
@@Toonpish Lol me either, I have fake plants 🤣🤣
😂😂😂
I have that same mold. Thank you for sharing your ideas with us. I now know how to get my "Brian" out when I make him.
Have fun with Your Brian 😀😀 glad you enjoyed it 👍❤️
I love the red one.
Me too 😀😀❤️
Hi Wendy love your snails 🐌 that red is beautiful 😍 great work thanks for sharing ❤️ xx
Thank you so much Michelle 😀😀❤️
Both are awesome, but I love love the red!
That red is stunning 😀😀 thanks Jo 👍❤️
Love them both! That red is spectacular!
Thank you so much Karen 😀😀
I love them. I've been doing the frog and gecko molds a lot. If I'm using flakes, foils or mica dusting, I fill the molds about 3/4 the way and drop pebbles in as filler. It raises the volume, you can't see them, and it gives it some weight.
That’s a great idea 💡 😀😀 thanks Lisa 👍❤️
I love this snail. He is actually my next pour after I get the glass. So 😍
😀😀 enjoy your pour 😀😀👍❤️ thanks Gail ❤️
@@Toonpish thank you 😊 and you're welcome Wendy 💞
Wow, these are gorgeous Wendy 😍
Thank you Mary 😀😀❤️👍
They both turned out great. That red is so vibrant and gorgeous. I loved your idea of adding the flakes to the glass, I thought it would show through too. Adding multi colored glass pebbles to the shell might be cute too? I always enjoy your videos! Thanks for sharing all of your fun designs.❤
That does sound a great idea Funo. 😀😀 thanks so much 😀😀 I guess the glass was just too thick for it 🤷♀️ live n learn though 😀😀 it’s all good fun 👍❤️
@@Toonpish Now you’ve got me wondering if holographic film would reflect up through the glass pebbles.😆 That’s one of the most exciting aspects of working with resin.. experimenting, de-molding is either a happy surprise or.. a regrettable one.🤣 But, like you say, you don’t know until you try and the upside is.. either way it’s always a learning moment.
Absolutely 😀😀😀 I love it too and trying new things just makes my heart sing even if it’s a failure 😀😀❤️👍
Absolutely beautiful
Thank you Effie 😀😀👍❤️
Absolutely gorgeous 😍 ❤️
Thank you so much Dale 😀😀❤️👍
They both look great Wendy.
Thank you so much David 😀😀👍❤️
Love these snails, great video- so helpful. Not seen red foil before, it’s stunning 😍
Thank you so much Liz 😀😀💜👍
Great job. They both look beautiful!!! Thanks for sharing. 😊
Thanks for watching and commenting Anita 👍❤️
I love the way these turned out. ❤️
Thank you Sandy 😀😀❤️
These are Absolutely Beautiful they turned out so good!
Thank you so much 😀😀👍❤️
Love let's resin moulds I have the frog and lizard I did mine with crystals love Brian he is great xx
Crystal creatures sound amazing. 😀😀 thanks Julie 👍❤️
Absolutely stunning love "BRIAN " 🤗🤗🤗
Thank you Mary 😀😀❤️👍
Those are really great! I really love that red shell! That's another mold I'm going to have to put on my wish list!
It’s a lot bigger than I thought it would be and great detail 😀 thanks Lisa 😀😀👍❤️
@@Toonpish That is a really good price! I was expecting it to cost more.
These are beautiful! I am heartbroken to say that the mould is out of stock! I so wanted my own Brian!! Thank you for the ideas 💡
Perhaps more people wanted a Brian of their own than expected 😂😂 hopefully it will be back in stock soon. Thank you so much SoecTONKular 😀😀👍
Love that red! ❤
Me too 👍👍❤️
These are so cute ❤ love them Wendy 🎉
Thank you so much Mary 😀😀❤️👍
Same thing happened to me with the same mold...ugh! I used UV resin to glue mine back on. 😊 Both yours turned out so cute! Brian is adorable! His red shell is gorgeous! ❤😊.
I'm going to give this another go!
Have fun with it 😀😀 thanks Fairyspun 😀😀👍❤️
They both brilliant Wendy! 😃
Thank you so much hun 👍👍❤️😀
The snails are cool!
So are you John 👍💜❤️

Love them. They are so cute
Thank you so much Catherine 😀😀❤️
I bought the snail the big one and the one well I'm waiting for the small one to come I'm buying bit by bit xx
Oh I didn’t know there was a small one too 😳😀👍 thanks Julie 😀👍❤️
Beautiful 🐌 love both of them
Thank you so much Geneva 😀😀❤️👍
Amazing mould, thanks always for sharing 🙂
Thank you Dawn 😀😀😀
Lol I have 2 of the gecko ones but have not used them yet so between us we have the set 😂. Love how they have turned out Wendy and love that you called one Brian from the magic roundabout 🥰Thank you for this video as it also gives me an idea on how big it is 😄 Great work Wendy 🤩😍 Love seeing you crafts🤩😍
Thank you so much Lisa 😀😀😀 I love messing around and I guess I’m just a big kid at heart 😂😂
Lol I am the same Wendy 😂😂😁
Hi. I love them. Such fun. I watch u & I can skip the mistake you made & come up with a different mistake...You really need to check out the dragon mold that Pouring Your Heart Out channel just did. Dragon lover you will fall for it.
Oh I know about the mould 😂😂 one day 😀😀❤️❤️
Thank you Karen 👍👍
Absolutely love these. I need to get the mould. I've just ordered some of your inlays and I'm very excited for them to arrive
Oh that’s great 😀 everything has already gone in the post 😀💜👍
Looks like I have Togo buy a new mould lol fab Wendy I love them x
They are super cute 😀😀 thanks Shirley 👍❤️
Love them ❤️ I’ve got the frog mould, couldn’t bring myself to buy the snail because I spend so much time disposing of them in my garden 😜🇦🇺
😂😂😂 maybe a giant snail would chase the others away 🤷♀️😀😂
@@Toonpish 🤣 I’ll try it!
So cute love them both😊
Thank you Bex 😀😊
Both turned out gorgeous! I love your videos and always learn something. I would've never thought about the glue creating a barrier and it did make me laugh, but again, we all learned something! Thank you!! I always look forward to your videos 🐌
Aww that’s so great Rosanne 😀😀😀 I’m so happy to share my craft 👍❤️
Wow they look amazing! I really love the red shell 😍😍 Well done Wendy, another wonderful video 😊
Thank you so much Daegon 😀😀👍❤️
Very nice work
Thank you so much Palava 😀😀👍❤️
I have that mold but i do not have deep pour epoxy yet.. i can't wait to make one.. t want to make teal shell with black body.. hugs Sheryl 💙🎨💙
It’s a huge mould for sure 😳😳 have you seen the snow globe ones people are making on Instagram 😳😳😳 they look really cool. See you you can find them 😀💜
I took a Christmas bulb that you could fill and made a waterball with seashells in it. And then put that in my snail.
What a great idea 😀💜👍
Love Brian also you know how you have thought too just pop into your head lol what do you think about using some of your Drewse or how ever you spell those crazy things 🤣 sometimes my brain works too hard 🤣 love everything you do!
Thank you Cindy 😀😀😀 duzzies will be back at some point 😀😀 I do love them 👍❤️
Love, love, love the red shell!! I have the frog and the lizard and have been debating whether to get the snail. I think your video just talked me into it! For the frog mold I've been using chunky glitter with resin and putting it into the parts that will be "high" on the frog (his back, thighs, elbows, toes. My issue is that it runs out of the kegs and down on the belly. First time, I just babysat it for hours. Second time, I used air dry clay to block the resin from running into the body. However, the resin kind of stuck to some of the clay and then when getting it off, I pulled up the small layer of glitter and resin. Ughh! I used some UV resin. To "glue" those parts back in but then my "fill" resin went underneath the glitter portions (I hope this makes sense). I wonder if I use the glue you had an issue with if that would help some with the running. My other idea is to use UV resin and chunky glitter so I can angle the frog and not have it run before it cures in those spots. I just haven't mixed 2 part resin with UV resin. Will that cause any problems?
th-cam.com/video/da4zm1_OIUU/w-d-xo.html
I’ve linked a video that might ease your mind a little.
Uv resin can detach from epoxy resin by force so it’s not good for instance as glue for a plug. However if will sit inside epoxy resin happily.
You could try a plexiglass barrier held in with hot glue. That’s been used quite a bit.
Anyway. Good luck and I hope you achieve what you want 👍👍❤️
@@Toonpish I thought about using hot glue but didn't want to melt the mold. There's not really a good place to add a barrier out of plastic. I'll check out the video! Thanks!
They r so cute
They are 😀😀😀 thank you Mandi 👍❤️
😍🤩😍🤩😍🤩
Thank you Peggy ❤️❤️
I'm not a huge fan of snails but these I can live with. I'm not sure if the glass filled or the red shell was the best as one was very interesting and one was very shiny to look at.
Maybe I should do a combination one 😀😀 thanks Sussie. I sent you an email this morning by the way 😀❤️
@@Toonpish I've checked both my inbox and junkfolder and there is no mail 😔
😏🤔😞
I will send it again 🤷♀️
L I K E 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 😻 😻 😻 😻 💯 💯 💯 💯💯
Thank you 😀😀👍❤️
❤️🤩
😀😀💙
These are so Cute 😍
I had a question about using the guilding glue.... was the outside of the red snail shell still tacky? Did you seal it with anything after?
I didn’t use the glue for the outside red, it was the inside underneath the glass stones.
But it would be tacky if it was.
I hope that helps 😀😀❤️👍
@@Toonpish it does, thank you 😊
🐌👍
Thanks Maria 👍❤️
Snail and slug eyes are called eyestalks, or ommatophores.
Thank you Dawn 😀😀👍❤️
Beautiful snail 😍. I made one and the snail head and tail had deep lines in the resin . Do you have any advice to stop that?
Is there something in the mould creating the lines?🤔🤔🤔
@@Toonpish No it was a clean mould and I couldn't feel or see anything . I made a second one and it had the same lines 🤷
Must be the mould. If it’s twice in a row.
Contact your supplier
They should help you
@@Toonpish Thank you I will 😀
Brian turned out beautiful but so did Sophie 😉 Where do you get the Vuba Vista Black? I will be in England visiting family later this year and will be in the Nottingham area and will probably be traveling to the Whitby/Robinhoods Bay area too. I'd love to find something that is truly black!
Oh totally.
Sorry I must have missed the link for it. I’ll go pop it in now.
Im down south of uk 🇬🇧 but I believe it is a beautiful part of the country you are going to.
Thank you so much 👍❤️
@Toonpish Crafts Thank you, I was hoping I could order in the US but I can't
My husband grew up in Nottingham and we try to get there every two years, he's been back twice but I haven't been there in almost 6 since I take care of my mom. It is a lovely area that's for sure 💗
Happy travels then 😀😀 I bet you are looking forward to it 👍
@@Toonpish Very much so!!!
Wendy Brian is absolutely beautiful……👏👏👏👏
Thank you so much Annette 😀😀👍❤️
I love this project and tried to make it. My foil won't stick inside the shell. Is there a trick??
Is it definitely foil you are using ? It’s extremely thin and if you have it on your fingers it covers them too 😳
Foil clings to silicone.
There isn’t any trick to it 🧐
@@Toonpish it looks exactly like the ones you're using. No trouble sticking to me lol
And is it the same mould?
Okay so thinking about what you are saying, you need to gently cover the mould using a soft brush. If you keep going over the same area it will come off. But if there is residual powder on the mould it then won’t stick.
Turn the mould inside out and completely clean it. Tape will work and isopropyl alcohol will finish it off.
The silicone needs to be completely clean.
Maybe that’s the issue hear 😀
@@Toonpish It is the same mold. I'll try that. Thank you!
I hate snails all except for these.
😀😀 glad you like them June 😀😀❤️
