Thank you for sharing. I found your video looking for causes of flash curing, due to some resin I got from a friend. I did research the resin I received before using it. Long story short I’ve used it a few times in same molds and when I’d use a darker color I noticed it want the resin getting hotter in the mold. And 2 of the 12 I’ve made flashed cured ! It’s actually only on mold doing it. Not as bad as your friends but still. Any ideas what might be causing this? I tried to post a photo with my comment but unfortunately that didn’t work out either! Again thanks and thank you for your thoughts.

Wipe off the excess paint immediately with a damp cloth or baby wipe. If the paint has dried, gently clean it off with a baby wipe or alcohol.. 🌟10. Is it necessary to seal the painted dots? Sealing isn’t required if the paint is durable and adhered well. However, applying a thin layer of clear resin or varnish over the dominoes will protect the design and give a glossy finish.

Here are some FAQ questions that I hope will help you more... Let me know! 🌟1. What materials do I need to make a resin clock? You’ll need resin and hardener, a clock resin mold, clock mechanism and hands, pigments or dyes, mixing cups, craft sticks, gloves, a heat gun or torch, and protective gear like a mask for ventilation. 🌟2. How do I mix resin and hardener properly? Follow the manufacturer’s instructions, usually a 1:1 or 2:1 ratio. Mix thoroughly for 3-5 minutes, scraping the sides and bottom of the cup to avoid unmixed resin, which can result in sticky spots. 🌟3. How do I prevent bubbles in my resin? Mix slowly to avoid introducing excess air. Use a heat gun or torch to pop bubbles after pouring the resin. Ensure your workspace is dust-free and at room temperature for the best results. 🌟4. What type of pigments or dyes can I use in resin? You can use mica powders, alcohol inks, resin dyes, or acrylic paints specifically labeled for resin use. Avoid water-based products as they can interfere with curing. 🌟5. How do I center the clock mechanism? Using the resin mold, you will see a hole in the center of the mold. Once demolded, you can use this hole to insert the clock mechanism. 🌟6. How long does it take for the resin to cure? Resin typically takes 24-48 hours to cure, depending on the brand and environmental factors like temperature and humidity. 🌟7. How do I secure the clock mechanism? Insert the mechanism through the drilled hole, attach the hands as per the instructions, and tighten the nut to hold it in place. Make sure the hands move freely and do not touch each other. 🌟8. Can I add embellishments like glitter or dried flowers to my resin clock? Yes! Add embellishments to the resin mix or layer them during the pouring process. Use a toothpick or stick to position them as desired. 🌟9. How do I ensure the resin is evenly spread across the clock surface? Pour the resin slowly in the center and spread it outward using a craft stick or spatula. A heat gun can help the resin self-level. 🌟10. Is it necessary to seal the finished resin clock? No, resin creates a glossy, durable finish once cured, so no additional sealer is needed. However, if the edges need smoothing, sand lightly and add a thin resin layer for a polished look.

Here are some FAQ questions that I hope will help you more... Let me know! 🌟What materials do I need to complete this project? To create the Paint Pour Christmas Bells, you’ll need Dollar Tree plastic Christmas bells, acrylic paints, a pouring medium (like Floetrol or another brand), disposable cups, craft sticks for mixing, a drop cloth or tray to catch excess paint, gloves, and a clean workspace for drying. 🌟Do I need to prime the Dollar Tree Christmas bells before painting? No, priming isn’t necessary. The plastic surface works well for paint pouring, but make sure the surface is clean and free of dust or grease for better adhesion. 🌟How do I mix the paint for pouring? Mix equal parts of acrylic paint and pouring medium in a disposable cup. Adjust the consistency by adding a small amount of water if needed-the mixture should flow easily but not be too runny. 🌟What is the correct consistency for the paint? The paint should have a consistency similar to warm honey or maple syrup. It should flow off the craft stick smoothly without clumps or being too watery. 🌟Can I use other items from Dollar Tree for similar projects? Absolutely! Items like plastic ornaments, trays, or even picture frames can work beautifully with paint pouring. Just make sure the surface is clean and stable. 🌟How do I set up my workspace for paint pouring? Use a drop cloth or large tray to protect your surface. Elevate the bells on small cups or jars so the paint can drip freely without pooling. Wear gloves to keep your hands clean, and have paper towels handy for spills. 🌟What’s the best way to let the bells dry after pouring? Allow the bells to dry on an elevated surface like small cups or sticks. Keep them in a dust-free area to avoid particles sticking to the wet paint. Drying typically takes 24-48 hours, depending on the thickness of the paint. 🌟How long does it take for the paint to dry completely? The paint will be touch-dry in about 24 hours, but for a fully cured finish, allow 48-72 hours. 🌟Can I add embellishments or decorations to the bells after the paint dries? Yes! Once the paint is dry, you can add glitter, ribbons, or small charms to enhance the festive look. 🌟Is it necessary to seal the painted bells, and what sealer do you recommend? Sealing is optional but recommended for durability. Use a clear spray sealer like Krylon Clear Gloss or a brush-on varnish for a shiny finish. 🌟Can I customize the colors to match my Christmas décor? Of course! Choose any color combination that complements your holiday theme, whether it’s traditional red and green or more modern metallics and pastels. 🌟What other shapes or ornaments work well with this technique? Other great options include plastic snowflakes, stars, or even larger ornaments like faux trees or wreaths. Let your creativity guide you!

Love them!! Great work Erika!

Thanks a Lot!!!

I love your experiments! Thank you!

I don't like the pure waste of color. You can do that with a little thicker and significantly less paint. Even better...

Wow! That's amazing - a dream is correct! 💕

So pretty!😊❤

What a beautiful & clever idea Erika! ❤I am so sorry about your Mom. I miss mine everyday, but I find comfort in warm memories, I wish this for you as well.

Love this Erika! ❤❤😊I can't wait to see all the gorgeously yummy art! Amazing suggested palettes!

Everything is not the overused "HACK"!

Seriously genius! I use the same grid and painstakingly hang them on hooks and constantly have to straighten them

Some good info here but I soon got sick of the shit music & had to hit the mute button.

Could I use the spray, then sprinkle with clear glitter (on ornaments)?

Great work!

How long do I need to wait before I start to clean the Domino’s do I clean it while the paint is still wet or do I wait until it dries?

That purple one on the bottom is gorgeous

Beautiful 🧚

I love the idea of using your palette knife! ❤
