🫢 UR REACTION IS EXACTLY HOW I FELT WHEN I DISCOVERED DECORATIVE FOILS! My Soul jumped out & had a dance party & did back flips!!!! It’s not easy to find people covering different application methods. Most use the nail glue or UV Resin, so thank u for stepping outside the box & trying ur own method, it worked better & brilliantly!🎉 Ur reaction truly made my day, I thought “Someone else gets it, THEIR FLIPPIN PURE MAGIC”! I wish I had a recorded loop of how excited u got, so anytime life gets me down, I could play it on repeat! It would be impossible to stay in a funky mood! That genuine happiness could fix the whole Universe! ❤
I already knew these worked but you did a great job demonstrating how to use them. In my opinion, the real stars are the translucent holographic (both patterned and plain) nail foils because even just putting them in clear resin makes the piece beautiful on both sides, but putting translucent colored resin on top, especially marbled translucents, tint them so beautifully. Honestly, they all work great. Don't even really need the glue, you can just wait until the resin is mostly set but still tacky, gently place it down and smooth it on, then wait for the piece to finish curing before peeling the clear plastic off. Actually, for easy shapes, you could cut it to fit the mold, or just a bit shorter leaving a bit of a frame/border around it, and not even really need to peel the clear plastic at all since you'll be clear coating/sealing it in anyway. BTW, another nice trick is using a paper embossing machine on plastic sheets (plain or holographic, clear or colored) to embed in resin. Gives a whole new look, especially if you tint/paint the embossed plastic with alcohol ink and let it completely dry first. 👍
Sky's the limit with designs n nail foils! They make sssssooooo many different kinds. I'm sure u could encapsulate the whole thing if need be. I've done it with acrylic and hard gel
I am a nail tech who just started resin crafts and this was an idea I had with my very first craft. I am so glad they work because I have tons of these foils.
OMG, I love these. I am sat with my ear plugs in watching this and I just shouted out “oh my god”, scared the husband to death he thought there was something wrong 🤣 then tutted and shook his head when I showed him, he just doesn’t understand 😂
I tried this experiment with nail foil. I did it differently and mine came out wrong. I didn’t know you could pull off the foil like that. You are amazing! I’m so glad I didn’t throw away the rest of my foil! Thank you for this video
Steve have you ever tried to use UV nail polish molds but more importantly the the polish itself in molds. It's already colored and cures with a UV lamp. Could make some great things.
You don't need the glue, the foils will actually stick to the mould quite well. I put mine face down so they end up on the underneath, top when demoulded.
Cool! I wouldn't have guessed gilding glue works even better than the traditional nail foil glue. I do know there is a UV cured form of nail glue that works well also. It also works for sticking on powders and stickers and such. Nice video~
I love the nail foils, I use them also with clay which is another media I have started to do besides resin. I can't exactly work with resin while at work (work from home) so I went to getting clay and so far have made a few pendants that I dome with UV resin (JDiction is the BEST). I have noticed that there's more styles coming out with the nail foils almost like they realized us resin makers are wanting to use them in our stuff too. Love yours though, they came out perfectly!
Smiling from ear to ear while watching this video .. I was excited as well 😆 I'm not getting much done except binge watching your videos 🙃 I'm having a great time.. thank you
These foils are so versatile and reasonably priced. This was a project with them I hadn't seen. They looked great. I love the effect doming has 😍 Tfs Steve & take care 🦉🎨👋
I'm not sure what I love more yr experiments or how u get so surprised n excited when it works 😁😁.... don't ever stop Steve we all need some fun in our lives xx
WOW is right!!! These turned out absolutely beautiful. I'm in love with the red bookmark and the ones for pendants. Such a different look at a very small cost. Thanks for sharing your ideas.
Very cool. You can also put the foil on the resin in the beginning and pull it off when it has cured. I would wait until the resin is sticky but won’t move so you can press it but you won’t have to press it very hard.
Great video. I’ve been using foils for years, both in rock painting and in resin. They make great backgrounds too, eg Night sky with stars and moons layered on top; or green foliage type foils with flowers on top; or for sunsets or jungle scenes in dioramas or simpler things like dragonfly wings. Foils are amazing. My next project is to use in a snow globe base.
Omgoodness, I bought some of these before a long while back but struggled to use them, but the glue is the key!!! Im digging them back out again, thanks for all the answers!
I have butterflies nail transfers and they won't transfer. So I tried nail polish and let it dry out and still not transferring. I have to cut mine out to put them in resin. But I have to be super careful or the transfer comes of in the wet resin. I think I got duds or im doing something wrong. They don't require water that I do know, lol. Love the bookmarks. Pretty and cute at the same time ☺️. Have a good day
I absolutely LOVE this effect and I have a ridiculous amount of nail foils to try this with. The only "downside" I see to doing it this way is that the foil will be on the **bottom** of the piece (like if you are doing a coaster or a tray or something. I think I will do my pieces as usual, then apply the nail foil to the top of the piece after demolding, then apply a thin coat over it to seal it in. This is a fantastic idea and opens a ton of ideas! Thank you!
I always end up binge watching these videos because the ideas are terrific. I think I will try some of my other nail art embellishments with this. The rhinestones and charms would go well in pendants as well
Love this. Just what I needed to see. I do nails as well so I have tons of nail foils to use among other inclusions that I use for nails. Fimo slices, glitter, just loads of stuff
UV resin works really well too paint on a thin layer, place on nail foil press foil lightly and position it cure under uv light peel off foil and voilà x

Sky's the limit with designs n nail foils! They make sssssooooo many different kinds. I'm sure u could encapsulate the whole thing if need be. I've done it with acrylic and hard gel
OMG ~ DAME IT ~ NOW HAVE TO GO GIVE THIS A GO ON MY RESIN BOOK COVERS

@@SteveMcDonaldArtsandCrafts oh no!! It's lovely to see your passion!! It's why I keep coming back to watch your videos 🤗
@@DopamineDivas Me too!

Your reactions are EVERYTHING!!! ❤
I love your videos! Between your ideas and your voice I could watch you all day lol thank you for sharing your knowledge, I’ve learned a lot
🎉I love how you get so excited about your projects! Thanks for sharing 👍 😊
Absolutely love when you get excited! It clearly shows you love what your doing!
I have done this. Loved the results
I'm really glad I found this video. I've been wanting to try this but wasn't quite sure how it worked. They came out really cool! Thank you!
I love them
I ADORE your reaction!
Just so you know, you could also use clear fingernail polish if you don’t have the nail foil glue. But your work turned out absolutely beautiful.
Very cool !!# never thought of using the nail foils. You give me so much inspiration !!!Thank you !!! Have an awesome day ❤👍🤗
I’m a new crafter and I’m so lucky to have found your channel! I’m learning so much from you!
Oh thank you,thank you,I just happen to have nail lacey sheets,I got for use in polymer clay.
I tried this experiment with nail foil. I did it differently and mine came out wrong. I didn’t know you could pull off the foil like that. You are amazing! I’m so glad I didn’t throw away the rest of my foil! Thank you for this video
I have a lot of these! Now I have use for them
Love these!!! what a fantastic idea! And as a nail tech, I can say that the foil glue is the exact same stuff as the "nail art" stuff.
Steve have you ever tried to use UV nail polish molds but more importantly the the polish itself in molds. It's already colored and cures with a UV lamp. Could make some great things.
I like the 2 images I wish you would do that all the time
How fun! Thank you!
Steve, These are quite Beautiful ! ❤️
Love the glee
I also love how giggly you get whenever you mention the subscription bell! 🤩. Love it!
You don't need the glue, the foils will actually stick to the mould quite well. I put mine face down so they end up on the underneath, top when demoulded.
Do you leave the whole foil? Or do you rub and take back off?
When to stick those foils in resin?I tried some but it didn't worked
They look amazing!!🙂🙃🙂🙃 What an awesome idea...endless possibilities for designs and colors too!!💫💫💫
Cool! I wouldn't have guessed gilding glue works even better than the traditional nail foil glue. I do know there is a UV cured form of nail glue that works well also. It also works for sticking on powders and stickers and such. Nice video~

Love how excited and pleased you are with the nail foils. Love them, going to have to give them a go 😊
These are brillllliant love it
You can get full sheets of foil also. Some of the images are sooo much better than the nail foils too. These turned out great.
Smiling from ear to ear while watching this video .. I was excited as well 😆 I'm not getting much done except binge watching your videos 🙃 I'm having a great time.. thank you
Love this I have some and now I know they work I’m off to have a go!
You sound like me when I found out how to add my container full of foils…making earrings also!
Wow the nail foils are brilliant! Definitely opens many doors!
Waw , super beautiful .
you are like a kid at the sweet shop ! !
Ohhh nice, love this idea 💖💖💖👏👏👏
Amazing idea! Thanks!
These foils are so versatile and reasonably priced.
This was a project with them I hadn't seen.
They looked great. I love the effect doming has 😍
Tfs Steve & take care 🦉🎨👋
I've been doing this for ages, it's so fun!
I'm not sure what I love more yr experiments or how u get so surprised n excited when it works 😁😁.... don't ever stop Steve we all need some fun in our lives xx
I love your creativity. Thank you for all of the work you put into your videos.
Id didn't know they came off that way, I thought you just put the foil down, interesting, must get some.
Wow, these are amazing😊
Omg! I love you!! 😂 you always make me smile 😊
The gold foil glue seems to work even better than the nail foil glue does
I have loads of nail foils laying around thank you lots of fun to come x
Your excitement is contagious. They look amazing 💕
Like everyone else, I love how excited you get when you are trying something new and it’s turning out really good!!
You can use UV resin in a thin layer to transfer those foils too :)
Fantastic idea, great video
best of both worlds!!
I do my own nails,love foils & resin!
i really like the foil prints!
WOW is right!!! These turned out absolutely beautiful. I'm in love with the red bookmark and the ones for pendants. Such a different look at a very small cost. Thanks for sharing your ideas.
I love when you get all excited and giggling. 😁 Thank you for sharing your experiments. Awesome work!
Omg I love his character the different noises he be making are funny 😆😆😆👌👌👌💯💯
Works REALLY well. I've done it too :)
Very cool. You can also put the foil on the resin in the beginning and pull it off when it has cured. I would wait until the resin is sticky but won’t move so you can press it but you won’t have to press it very hard.
I love the enthusiasm and thought you put into your art. It's so inspiring!
I’ve been searching for a way to do this for months. I’m excited to see this! 🤩
Great video. I’ve been using foils for years, both in rock painting and in resin. They make great backgrounds too, eg Night sky with stars and moons layered on top; or green foliage type foils with flowers on top; or for sunsets or jungle scenes in dioramas or simpler things like dragonfly wings.

Love how excited you get. Your experiments are great.
These look wonderful.
OMG! So awesome 👏. Thank you Steve 😍
Thanks for this. Using a long neck lighter...I was wondering if it would work so thanks again!
Amazon do plastic tip bottles and bent-nosed tips sold separately for them - which might be more steady for you!!
Steve your joy is communicative ! I have the foil glue + UV lamp and you did much better, with your own materials, well done !!
I love using these foils too, fun video thanks!
Such an inexpensive yet stunning idea! Thank you again for sharing your creative journey.
Omgoodness, I bought some of these before a long while back but struggled to use them, but the glue is the key!!! Im digging them back out again, thanks for all the answers!
That worked so well! Came out lovely
Brilliant! I found some on Amazon and already put some in my cart! Thanks 🤩
I absolutely Love this video ! I really enjoy your reaction to the foil as you peeled them off Lol. Your videos are so great to watch . Thank you !
Your happiness is addictive :) they turned out really well xx
Thanks
I just bought the foil to do this and you made the video! Always ahead! Thank you!!
I stumbled soon your channel and I do nails. Nail foils are amazing and add so much with such little effort. Cool new use 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
I have butterflies nail transfers and they won't transfer. So I tried nail polish and let it dry out and still not transferring. I have to cut mine out to put them in resin. But I have to be super careful or the transfer comes of in the wet resin. I think I got duds or im doing something wrong. They don't require water that I do know, lol. Love the bookmarks. Pretty and cute at the same time ☺️. Have a good day
These are just fab!
Love it when thinks turn out super nice & you get all excited Steve.
Well done you!
We love you lots x 😬👍🏼
Can't wait to try it 😋

I bought some to cover my resin letters but I returned it cause I wasn’t sure it would turn out right but seeing you use it I might order it again😅
AWESOME love it!
I just love these!!
@@SteveMcDonaldArtsandCrafts Xx
I always end up binge watching these videos because the ideas are terrific. I think I will try some of my other nail art embellishments with this. The rhinestones and charms would go well in pendants as well
Hi steve your hilarious it's so good to see someone so in love with their creations, love these they look so cool
Love this. Just what I needed to see. I do nails as well so I have tons of nail foils to use among other inclusions that I use for nails. Fimo slices, glitter, just loads of stuff

I love your reaction!!!! So excited 😂 The pieces came out so nice, I’m definitely going to try the nail foils
