If you light a candle and hold the film over the flame it will shrink much quicker and give you the same effect. You can also use alcohol markers and color the film before you melt it. I have only added different colored stripes or squiggles to the film, never colored it solid. It's definitely lots of fun!
LOVE iridescent film! Those "stringy things" are called shreds. 😁 Hey, if you're worried about the thinness, can you double it, then heat it, maybe? Oooh, WOW, pretty effects, Dan! There are tons of colors! I honestly like ALL the materials you used, and would happily use any of them! Thanks again, Dan, for a great demo! Three days in a row is GREAT, and I am NEVER bored with your videos. 👍🤗💕
After seeing some videos using the fantasy film I went on the hunt for it but it was either out of stock or seriously expensive so I gave up.. soooo happy to see this and know I can get the similar effect for cheap ❤
What a great video! Great idea using the heat gun to force ripples into the material. Looks so much cooler than the hand crinkling effect. And yay! Cheap holo film!
Silly man, you could never bore us! I ADORE your videos and your experiments, they inspire me to try my own hand at them! Though it makes you quite the bad influence on my poor bank account 😅. These remind me of abalone shells and turned out absolutely gorgeous! I will sefinitely have to purchase some of this iridescent film for myself and finally give my heat gun some proper use!
@@daniel..cooper You're welcome. I just made it today and the two people I showed it to HAD to have the link to this tute. New converts on the way!!!💖💖💖
❤ these. Stunning. This is the stuff I was talking about that I bought in numerous rolls and colors. Now I have to figure out which closet I stuck it in. Great ideas. ❤ the video.
These look gorgeous as did the ones you did yesterday. I’m glad you tried the cheaper version as I bought some, not as much as you though. But I haven’t tried it yet, but I will try it out soon now I’ve seen you use a cheaper one. Thanks for sharing Daniel.
This technique is a gamechanger you can mix some cellophane flakes of this kind of film they sell at the dollar store in little pots in the art section. I layer these different color flakes on the surface of the iridescent film and it works amazingly .
Hi Daniel great video, love how they turned out 😍, i tried this on Monday with just some film i had for wrapping, i got some good results too, video will be up tomorrow , thanks for sharing ❤ xx
Daniel!! I saw this somewhere else and ended up using something similar- BUT I was so worried it wouldn’t work the same- this video was awesome!made a set of coasters and a GORGEOUS tray!! Thank you for all the tips and great ideas!
That heart 💖👌🫶😉 akd that last piece amazing. I've got the original film I don't rate it as all that yes you get different colours but it's a fiddle and patience and a good heat proof area as you need gentle but constant heat 😉👌👍💪
😹defiantly not board that’s for sure, I love it with the black backing it really made the colours pop🤗🤗🤗🤗i have a huge roll of that stuff bought it 15 years ago for a project that never got done, found it the other day and been wondering what to do with it 😹😹😹50 metres of the suff 😹😹😹🙈🙈
I think they came out lovely. Your experiments are very enlightening. The work you put in is very appreciated. I have always used Angelina. I get sheets and fibers. You have shown some excellent alternatives for the sheets. Thank you.
Try checking out your local dollar store. I got a large roll for $1.25. Thank you so much for this video inspired me to go buy some. you’re a master at this.
After watching your video with the vinyl, I had to try using my cellophane. I tried out different colors and heated some together. They made really cool colors. I backed some with white and where it went under the cellophane it made neat effects. Love all your videos 😍
I have learnt so much from you. Am about to sell some of my pieces and am working in conjunction with a fandom shop online. All down to your tutorials!
Thanks for another great experiment. I’m so happy you tried all these alternatives because I was so shocked at the price of the Angelina film when I looked a couple of years ago (for something else) & like you said it’s out of stock all the time. I have a similar “table cloth” 🤷🏼♀️ I bought instead of the Angelina film and it worked for what I wanted at the time but it’s mahoussive so a ton left -might give this a try. Your videos are always an interesting and inspirational adventure. I don’t think I’ll ever tire of them.
Angelina film is different from cello wrap but, there is still so much you cane do with cello wrap. And you will go through color loss and back again and it can go back to color loss if not careful. I love using this with tack it over and over. Also try wadding it up and pull back out. You can use that way or then heat it up. It’s lots of fun if you use a stick incense to melt holes in it also. Angelina is fun putting holes in too. When I used to do polymer clay work I used both for many projects and loved it most for fairy wings. If you scrunch the cello and then cover a thin piece of resin then put tack it over and over on the piece, let it dry and then put the scrunched cello on it while creating creases where you want then cover with resin you are golden. Angelina just provides more color variety. And the resin does help bring the cello colors back out some.
Omg I swear I started doing the same thing awhile back with what looks like the exact same paper you have I got it from Amazon one has like a pink issue in it when you hold it up and one has a purple I used alcohol inks to color mine and make stamping patterns as well this is so great and such a game changer LOL like you say. ❤ It!!!!
It's so beautiful! I made a video this afternoon with the same cellophane wrap! I've also got bubbles and resin flowing underneath.... If you do a white background, the colors are those of the cellophane sheet, with a black background you get other colors! It's really cool! But it's really tricky to work with! 😉
This video is my favourite so far, the texture and colors are amazing, i love purples with pinks and greens or blue, and they do make great pendents,ive tryed to get this but have been unable to get the proper AB film.the pendents are stunning.
I thank you for experimenting to find a cheaper solution for fantasy film. It's beautiful but outrageous in price. Have you thought about just catching the corners with some tape when heating it? Also I wonder if you crunch it up into a ball in your hand first or both hands..lol....if it would give you more wrinkles to start with? Hope that made sense! Lol Beautiful work. ❤
I could listen to your voice all day long. And I just subscribed but I am gonna attempt to get into the resin crafting. I very much think it would be something that could make me happy. Thank you for making these videos it makes women like me decide they wanna do it.
I've been crafty my whole life but I lost my drive to do it I was in an accident in 93 when I was 16 and broke my back in 6 places it ruined all my plans for the future and I ended up on pain meds for the better part of 23 years then the drs just cut me off. I didn't realize It made me function and a false sense of happiness. I've been sober about 4 years now in Oct. Went into a depression along with having to quarantine since my brain had to get all the chemicals right again. So now I'm hoping to get started in this I truly think I could excel and I have some of the best resin artists one now including you to help guide me
@darragarcia79 sorry to hear this but you are definitely changing things into positives after such a horrific past. Resin has helped me immensely, I'm certain it will help you too 😊😊😊
I saw a video once where they layered pieces over each other of the dychronic paper for different color and textures. I bet this cheaper stuff would do that affect also. 🤔
Hi Daniel . After a few failures I managed what for me is an awesome pendant as follows. 1. poured thin layer of UV into the mould. 2. Placed iridescent cellophane in resin and gently pressed down to remove bubbles. 3. Cured 4. `thin layer of UV made black with mica powder. 5 Cured. 6 Thin layer of UV 7. Repeated step 2. 8 Cured. 9. Final layer of clear UV and final cure. It's like having the drama of the black background on both sides. wee bit more work to do with the cellophane and probably cure the first UV on its own for a better lens effect on that side. Would be very time consuming with 1-1 but in batches I think the results would merit the effort. Thank's again and sorry for the "life history".
Hi Dan, I just came up with a tip you may find helpful, I got some iridescent floral films and I used a hot plate set between 180 to 200 degrees. I just laid it on the surface for a second, picked it up and moved it around and it It works beautifully, more textures with less chance of curling. I got more colours too, and who doesn't need more colour!?
If you light a candle and hold the film over the flame it will shrink much quicker and give you the same effect. You can also use alcohol markers and color the film before you melt it. I have only added different colored stripes or squiggles to the film, never colored it solid. It's definitely lots of fun!
You could never bore us I can't thank you enough for all your hard work making and sharing your videos
Thank you 😊
Daniel I really appreciate you trying different products to try and achieve similar results. ❤ Always an enjoyable experience, they turned out great❤
Thanks Maddie 😊 Not as colorful as I hoped but it's a great start 😊😊
I use "easter" grass alot. If you cut it super small it makes a beautiful opal effect.
Awesome, thank you 😊
_"It took me playing around with different hand motions..."_
Aaaaand he's back! 😂
Lovely result, Daniel. 💚
😂😂😂😂 I missed that one! 😂😂🤣🤣
You are never boring! Thanks for testing all this out and sharing your results!
Thanks Linda 😊
LOVE iridescent film! Those "stringy things" are called shreds. 😁 Hey, if you're worried about the thinness, can you double it, then heat it, maybe?

Thank you 😊 I often go brain dead when trying to explain things whilst filming 😂
Believe me, you are NEVER boring!!
I have a suggestion. Lay it on bubble wrap and then put the heat to it. You'll love the results, I promise
Dude, you are not boring! You are hilarious… I adore your Tik Tok vids lol….
Thank you 😊 🫂
Those all look really amazing! You are never boring! I always find everything you do very interesting. I always look forward to what's next!
Thanks Lisa 😊
Daniel, you NEVER bore me. I learn so much from you. Thank you for sharing your ideas, your experiments, your expertise and your humor.
After seeing some videos using the fantasy film I went on the hunt for it but it was either out of stock or seriously expensive so I gave up.. soooo happy to see this and know I can get the similar effect for cheap ❤
Thanks 😊 Yes, it's crazy how things are more expensive if labelled for resin or nail art 😂
Not at all bored. Thank you for the great ideas.
Thanks Laurie 😊 🫂
What a great video! Great idea using the heat gun to force ripples into the material. Looks so much cooler than the hand crinkling effect. And yay! Cheap holo film!
Thank you 😊 Just have to be careful not to melt it 😂
You are in no way boring. I love your creativity, and for sharing your methods with us. Thank you so very much!! 🙏🙏
Thank you so much! 😊

Thank you 😊 And sorry 🙈😂
You're NEVER boring by the way! I did a photocopy of my cabochon mold, its really easy now to get right sizes for film etc xxx
Thank you, what a brilliant idea! I may try this! Thanks 😊
Wow! Not boring at all! ❤ them.
Thanks Sue 😊
I love all your alternatives and all your determination in all your videos
Thanks Kim 😊 It's good to have options 😊
Wow love how they all turned out! 😍 thank you for doing all the hard work for all of us! Your experimentation is always appreciated. 💙
Thank you! 😊
Never a bore! It's great to have different ways to do something, especially if there is a cheaper way!
Far from boring this is exciting!!!! some folks do the same ole videos over and over that is boring!!!!
love all that you do!!!!!
Thank you 😊 I was just worried as has been 3 days of similar vids 😂
You will never bore us. Thank you so much for sharing all that you share with us. Awesome video. Thank you again.
Thanks Angel 😊😊
Bellissimi, sembrano effetto Velvet, grande idea! 😍
Thanks Gulma 😊 🫂
Never ever bored! ☺️💕💕💕💕
If you did bore us, we wouldn't be here? I like the effect this film had. Very pretty.
Thanks Anita 😊
Wow. I love this and I'm sure the patient's families are going to love it. Greetings from Chattanooga Tennessee USA
Beautiful results 👌👌✨️🤩
Thank you 😊
These are the best! Please show us other ways to use this magic!

Never a bore. Thank you for showing alternatives.
Thank you Daniel. I never get bored with your experiments. A lot is learned from them.
Thank you Irene 😊
You come up with some of the most amazing techniques!
Thanks Trish 😊
They turned out beautiful, just like your previous ones, just cheaper, can’t beat that!
Thanks Donna 😊
❤ these. Stunning. This is the stuff I was talking about that I bought in numerous rolls and colors. Now I have to figure out which closet I stuck it in. Great ideas. ❤ the video.
Thank you 😊 Oops, hope you find it 😂
@@daniel..cooper it’s in one of 3 closets. Eventually I’ll find them. Grins
That’s AWESOME!! I have tons of that laying around Thank you for all your experiments

Well Daniel, now I can't decide which of these 3 videos I like the most!! Honestly I like them all!! Thank you!!! 😩😂 Sabina
Thanks Sabina 😊 I'm preferring the vinyl at the moment 😊
I have a ton of the stringy cellophane, used it in a space hula costume, lol, but couldn’t throw it way!
I will find a use for it, not sure what for, maybe trying gifts up with the miles of film I now have 😂😂😂
WOW! I absolutely love these! I may check out the Dollar Store to see if they carry this floral wrap! THANK YOU DANIEL 💥😊💥😊💥. You never bore me!
Thanks Deb, good thinking 😊 Could probably find this much cheaper than Amazon 😊😊
You are fab and I prefer these ones xx
Thank you 😊
This is awesome! Thank you so much for this video! As I said on FB, you are my Resin Rock Star!
Awesome! Thank you! 😊
Thank you for your ingenuity and your eternally happy videos Daniel. I look forward to them every day.

I've been spending loads on buying diochroic film. This is a game changer!!!
Yay, glad it helps Laura 😊

Yay, well done 😊😊 Glad you experimented 😊😊
I use blue/ white tack on each corner. Start from high up & bring down slowly bit by bit.. A-m-a-z-i-n-g results 🤩🤩
Supercool! xx 🎉
Thanks Fran 😊
That’s so weird that you did this today as I was wondering if this would work. Thank you for experimenting on this.

Beautiful, thank you Daniel .
Great tip about the soldering mat!
Thanks! 👍😊😊
I love the green/blue colors in this film.
Hey, I was wondering if you could use crisp bag the inside part, wether the eat gun would give you an alternative effect. Thanks for the 3 vids ❤
Hi Julie, it's possible, it may give a cool effect 😊
I saw a video once where they layered pieces over each other of the dychronic paper for different color and textures. I bet this cheaper stuff would do that affect also. 🤔
What fun!
Absolutely beautiful
Beautiful.

Awesome! Well done Greg! I will definitely try this, thanks for sharing 😊😊
I just found your site and love it!
Welcome aboard! Thank you 😊
Hi Dan, I just came up with a tip you may find helpful, I got some iridescent floral films and I used a hot plate set between 180 to 200 degrees. I just laid it on the surface for a second, picked it up and moved it around and it It works beautifully, more textures with less chance of curling. I got more colours too, and who doesn't need more colour!?
