Just come across your resin videos, Paula and loving them! Have just started with resin and am finding them incredibly interesting and helpful. Hope to see more when you have time ❤
Thanks so much Lolly! I'm so glad they help x I have more videos in the works and a few shorts to answer more UV Resin questions. I've already filmed these, so just need to find the time to edit them :)
My hubby and son suffer from epileptic seizures, so I really appreciate the flashing light warning. Thank you. I’m just thinking of trying to this particular craft, so again thank you for such wonderful educational videos!
It is SO GOOD to see you back! Glad I was already subscribed so this new video came up for me to view. You look really great. Please do another quilting series!!
Hi Janet, Thanks so much, I am doing so much better than the last few years. I have a few ideas for quilting videos, but if there's anything in particular that you'd like to see, please let me know. Your ideas help me so much. Thanks so much for commenting! Paula xxx
On the previous video you said you would tell us a great way to deal with the leftover resin in the silicon mixing cup. You never did. And please just add a link to this "follow up" video to the first. Thank you so much for the interesting content. I think you did your duty by telling us about ppe :) I was wondering the same. Thanks!
I love your tutorials. In one of your tutorial tips, you mentioned you were going to show what you could foo with the resin scraps that gets removed from your silicone cups. I don’t know if I missed that part of the video or it wasn’t included. Anyways if you have that video, I would love the info. Thank you 🙏🏼
New Year! Let's sew! How about jumping in to a sew a long? Loooove your previous quilting content... it was beautiful and intricate. But simpler scale would also be well received.
I saw a video using hairspray in resin. The result was beautiful .... it looked like it glowed. Strange but awesome looking , but is it safe? Not sure if they used epoxy or uv resin however. What are your thoughts on this?
Dearest Paula, I have just started doing UV resin projects, and would like to know about 3D molds, what you think of them, do you use them and how hard are they to cure?
Hi Edith, First up, thanks so much for commenting! I really appreciate you taking the time. To your question, in this video my BBQ Lighter was almost out of gas so I had trouble getting the flame down to the bottom of the mould. A new lighter with a stronger flame would make this much easier! Another thing you can do that I didn't mention in the video is to try and remove the bubbles in the cup/bowl before you even pour it into your mould. So after mixing in your pigment or additives leave the resin to settle for 5 minutes or so (make sure its away from a window/uv rays) and burst as many bubbles as you can. As you pour the settled resin into your mould, try to pour it in an even slow stream. Without a lighter, I recommend using a toothpick to get down to the bottom and get the bubbles up to the top. Finally making sure your mould is clean and dry helps immensely with reducing the bubbles sticking to the sides of the mould. I hope that helps, Paula xxx

Just come across your vid and while I enjoyed most of the information you provide, your comments on PPE masks has me tutting VERY loudly - it's a common misconception. A surgical mask is not designed to protect its wearer from unpleasant vapours (the word you were looking for). It's purpose is to provide a layer of protection for the patient from any germs etc or spittal carried on the breath of the surgeon, nurses doctors etc. The vapour from resin will pass straight through a surgical mask. You need a proper respiratory mask like those sold by 3M, preferably full faced. They are relatively cheap and more importantly, keep you safe. Please stop recommending or using surgical masks as protection during vaporous tasks. Apologies for the sermon, but your recommendation could cause someone harm.😢

@@PaulaStorm thank you so much! You are the best. Good night
I can't find your link at Sophie and toffee.
Also is UV resin safer than the part a and part b resin?
