Mica Powder + Rubber Stamp Resin Tray Tutorial | The Otherlings Shop

Here's a quick tutorial on how I make designs in epoxy resin using mica powder and rubber stamps :)
Supplies used:
Mica powder
Rubber stamp
Silicone mold
Amazing Clear Cast epoxy resin
Alcohol ink, resin pigment or acrylic paint
Plastic cup with measurements
Stick for mixing (popsicle sticks work)
Butane torch for bubbles
Tape for fixing mistakes
Respirator mask
Gloves
*Always use PPE when working with resin and mica powder. If you have any pets, place them in another room away from curing resin and/or mica powder.* When I made this video I didn't know mica powder is very dangerous for animals and humans to breathe -- I should NOT have let my cat even be in the same room. Protect your pets!!!

That is a brilliant idea! Picture that beautiful gold design against a black background.

I never thought to use stamps! Now I need to raid my mother's stash next time I'm in town lol

I love how this came out, but when I tried it, only half the mica would stick to mold. Any suggestions?

Love this video! I was thinking there had to be a better way short of buying those metal stickers for resin. Where do you get your powder?

[@theotherlingsshop9676]

Thanks for watching! I’m glad it was helpful :) this particular powder I ordered from AliExpress but I have used Finnabair mica powder from Michael’s also and it works just as well!

@@theotherlingsshop9676 thanks for the info! 💜

What is the first two powders you used? It that the mica powder? I’m looking for something to make my resin seem pearly but still clear, just like yours. I use art resin. Is that just the art resin and a little amount of mica powder, to keep it transparent? Xx i love your work and videos!

[@laverngordon]

Could u try embossing with this said gold mica powder please

[@InvisibleSeductress]

Embossing works very well on cured resin. I love it for trees. I'd be scared to ruin the mold if done straight on the mold. But would be interesting 🙂

Super cool results!
Though it could have been a 5min video without all the stirring.
