Soo I have been told from a few people that the glycerin molds..Since this is the first time using it I haven’t experienced that myself BUT I will keep an eye on that and update you all as needed. I’m also going to test a few other mixtures🥰
It isn’t the glycerin that’s molds. It’s the water. You just need to make sure to use distilled water 💜
I added just a little alcohol to my mix to avoid any future mold
I've heard it's the water in the mixture also, so you have to use distilled. I use distilled in all my artwork, so I always have it on hand.
Hi did your cup ever mold? I’m curious because I just bought the one you recommended before finding out that it can mold.
@@priscillay713 you will be fine as long as you use distilled water.
22:50 Baby Oil + Water (Flows slowly, 2nd favorite)
24:03 Glycerin + Water (Flows smoothly, favorite)
25:05 Glue + Water (Clumpy, least favorite)
26:17 Contact Solution (Flows fast like slowglobe, 3rd favorite)
27:16 Product Info
What is fast set
This needs to be the top comment
@@shawntezdavis1735 its resin (part A and part B) that sets in 2hrs to the touch - I think :-)
Thanks
Have you tried baby oil with contact solution?
I did a few tumblers with 1c warm water to 1tbsp of clear glue. Helps the glue mix better and very few bubbles when adding it to the tumblers. They flowed really well.
Is that 1 Cup.warm Warter
Glue with water is my favorite! Also it's 1 part glue to 3 parts water. And you also have to let it de-gass for an hour.
How much of glue and water would you say? Maybe 3/4? 1 cup?
@@jocelynparedes2292Wouldn't it depend on the size of the jar you're using?
I'm glad you did this...it saved me from having to do this experiment myself!!! I've been learning how to make these types of tumblers and I'm wondering if there is a reason you didn't fill the entire void with the different solutions? Is there a reason you left as much air-space as you did?
I was wondering this too. I know you have to allow space for the glitter to move but I thought it could have been filled more with the solutions.
Most people do after about a day or so, the solution needs some time to air out depending on which one you go with and typically from the videos I’ve seen, it takes at least 12-24 hours for any bubbles stuck in the glitter to come out to the top so when you come back to the cup the next day you’ll see it’s lower than how you filled it. Then you can add more to your liking. But I know some people like to have a lower amount of liquid like she did
I love all your videos and this one was so helpful! I’ve been getting ready to start snow globe tumblers and out of all the videos I’ve watched on the different methods, nobody has done one video comparing all the different methods at once, so thank you for making this! And thank you for using the same cups and glitter for all the methods so we can really get a good comparison of how each method looks when finished, the perfect way to compare. Now I am off to make my own tumblers, thanks again for such a great video!
Thank you so so much!
This was so helpful! I've seen different tutorials, but no one has ever compared them side by side. So helpful! I really like the look of the glycerin best! Thank you!
So thankful for you making this video! I tried the glue and water and I think that with your mixture you may have added too much glue. I have yet to find a good ratio to mix but I've noticed that if I fill up the cups to the max with no room for air pockets, it is a better outcome for the glue mixture. Shaking glue and water is going to give you the bubbly mixture that you are getting here. When the glitter is stuck at the top of the cup I hold it in my palms and shimmy the cup back and fourth quickly and it disperses the liquid into the glitter better. Hope this helps! Thanks again for making this awesome comparison! I really enjoyed it!
I love your video you are the first person that did not load down your cup with glitter I love this video❤❤❤
I have been wondering what to use and I am so happy you did this video. Now I know glycerin it will be with the tips from the other designers❤️
Thank you for this!
I like how you added glitter to the epoxy seal!
Thank you!!
@@crissycreatesofficial no issue with the epoxy lifting on top of the silicon seal?
So I also make these cups and use the glue method. You need to add more liquid to the glue one, your getting bubbles because if you shake it, it sloshes around making bubbles. Also its much faster using condiment bottles to fill, so much faster than pippets.
My cups liquid flow slower and suspends the glitter longer.
All my glitter is getting sticks at the top of my tumblers. Has this ever happened? Should I just use chunky glitter?? I know this is old but if you read this I’d love your advice
@@sasha7173 what I do is pour some liquid 1st. I use 1/2 water 1/2 clear Elmer's glue. Then put the glitter then finish putting the rest of the liquid till you fill it up. That happened to me the 1st time.
I love how you added glitter to your resin to seal the bottom brilliant idea. Thank you for testing these out for me
Thank you so much for this. I have wanted to try snow globe tumblers next and was wondering what solution to try!! I think I’ll go with the glycerin! I loved the flow in it!! Awesome video!
Have you made one yet? How did you like the glycerin?
I like the comparisons. My favorite is contact solution mixed with glycerin for a great flow.
Omg! I’ll have to give that a try next lol! There’s just endless possibilities😄
What is the ratio you used for contact solution and glycerin?
@@draginlowpos I use 50/50 to start with. You can add more of either one as you go. If want better flow add extra glycerin and if you want more clarity add more contact solution.
For the glitter I use a frosting tip. It goes in a lot quicker. I get it done in less that a minute 😊
Thank you, I’ll give that a try next!
How do you use the frosting tip?
Was exactly the review that i was looking for. Thank you!
Good morning, thank you so much for thos video. I am completely new to snowglobe tumblers. I just happened to purchase that exact same kind of glycerine but wasn't quite sure what to expect or what solution I should have went with to start.. completely happy with my decision.. sure hope it turns out as well as your's did! Thank you again.. now off to watch the rest of your tumbler videos so I can learn from the beginning! 😊
I just bought the same brand of glycerine! If you use purified or distilled water and fill the cup with the solution there shouldn't be any mold or clouding issue with the glycerine.
Hi, are you talking about the vegetable glycerin? I know there’s two kinds, the food grade one and other.
@@annon3485 Food grade. If you use distilled water and seal it properly there should not be any mold.
Thanks so much!😊
Thank you 👍❤️ im glad i didnt have to waste a load of money trying these things 🥰
This has been very helpful to see 4 at once instead of separate videos. Once you got the dixie cups and had them labeled I immediate thought this is just like a science fair experiment!!!
I’m so glad it was helpful! Yes it was definitely more of an experiment type video rather than a tutorial but I had a great time with it💖💖
I am really glad that you did this. thank you.. I was curious how they all flowed.. I have been looking for a slow-moving mixture.. I loved the glycerin flow.. But I am now nervous about the mold.. LOL I currently use glue and water.
For me , the glycerin clumped up my fine glitter and there were chunks and all of it rose to the top if it sat still . So basically there would be some glitter at the bottom, the middle would be clear and the top would be the glitter (turned into chunks) at the top .
The glue , for me that’s my favorite . I didn’t have any trouble putting the mixture into the cup using a syringe . I filled it up all the way to the top. As much as I possible could do there aren’t as many bubbles . ☺️
I agree!! I just tried the glue and water and I like it but I think I could have used more glue. I haven't found a legit ratio of glue to water so I'm testing waters. I also fill up my tumblers to the max, no room for air pockets whatsoever. I don't like that way they look half full of liquid. What ratio have you been successful with the glue and water mixture? thanks!!
@@tbpaslay try 1c warm water and 1 tbsp of clear glue!
I used the glycerin and it clumped as well. I’m super upset…
Great presentation of comparative study. This is gold. Very professional.
Thank you! I’m so glad you enjoyed it🥰
I wish you would've shown how you drilled it?
What was the mixture measurements? Please for an update on your cups.
So glad you did this. Now I can save money trying to buy all the things to experiment. I’d love to see a video using matte medium paste to make those whip cream lids for hot cocoa drip cups. There just aren’t many available and I need to see multiple people do it before I attempt it.
I’d be happy to get that going!
🤭🤗🤗🤗Awesomeness!!
Thank you! This is awesome! I been trying to find the best solution to make a fake wine bottle table! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!
With the glue, you need to put a few drops of 90% alcohol in with the mis to prevent bubbles. I'm not sure about any other solutions bc I haven't tried them. But personally the glue I have tried.
Woaaahh i have expired contact solution i think this is good way not to waste it..
Thank you for sharing! My favorite is glycerin and water!
Thank you for making this video. I was about to attempt to make a tumbler for my daughter and I appreciate the information. Keep the videos coming! You're doing an awesome job!! Peace and Blessings!!
TY. This was hugely helpful for me. I’m new to crafting. New Nana needing an outlet when I’m here unable to get out.
Would you do a comparison of glitter types next? I am wondering if the problems I've been having with my glitter tumblers stem from the type of glitter I'm using. I'm using extra chunky but it is just sitting there and not falling.
I have used both the glycerin and water and glue and water and both work great! The key to the glue and water is using 1/4 glue to 3/4 water ratio, rather than the 50/50 like the glycerin.
Thank you! I will definitely try again using less glue and see if I like it better.
I also think mixing the glitter in the solution before can help keep it from clumping in the cup.
Water needs to be hot too
What brand do you use?
Can you add glitter with the glue and water?
Thank you soooooo much, it helps me to decide what to use. So useful video!
I like the glycerin also i use to make snow globes and that was the one i liked,Thank you for teaching us,
Thank you for doing this!!
The glue and water needed to be mixed with glitter first
I love the glycerin and contact solution the best!
Thank you for sharing this wonderful information. I’ve been struggling with the storyboard tumblers so I wanted to try these. So I purchased TERVIS tumblers, very similar to the Maars ones. I was wondering how to seal it when finished, love the silicone option. Can’t wait to make them. I loved the glycerin option as it clears up so nicely. Thank you.
Thanks for you tips!! I loved !! Muchas gracias lo amé !!
Tried the glycerin last night. This was my first time doing this. This morning my tumbler appears to have less liquid and that creates an airy space at the top. Your presentation was great. I appreciate your effort to share your gifts so others can be blessed also.
I watched someone else do this and what they said was that there is a lot of air in the glitter so once you shake it up by putting your finger over the hole let it settle, add more liquid to top and repeat a few times until there is no more space for liquid
How much glysaring to how much glitter please?
Thanks i always wanted to know which one was best
This video was so helpful!! Loved it 💜💜
It seems if someone wanted the same effect as the contact solution they could just use distilled water? cheaper.
I just ordered some cups to start making these. Thanks for doing these videos, makes for good research as I get set up
I found if I use mineral oil instead of baby oil it doesn’t get cloudy.
Thank you! I’m going to have to make a part two with all the new solutions I’ve been hearing about🥰😄
Wow! I’m Gonna use the mineral oil to
Did you use water with it ?
Mineral oil is baby oil without the scent. No scent would probably be better with plastic.
Thank you for taking the time to compare these. I like how you used glitter for the bottom in the fast set.
Thank you! I’m so glad you enjoyed the video!
I like the contact solution but wonder if you added like 20% glycerin if that would make a perfect solution.
Thanks for taking the time to make this video. I haven’t made I’ve of these yet but it’s been in my head to do. Just didn’t know what to use for the liquid. Glycerine for sure. Blessings.
They have big contact solution at dollar tree!
I use Elmers glue two part water one part glue and I have no bubbles at all. I think you get bubbles doe to the brand of glue you used. I will my cups all the way to the top.
not her using the most expensive contact lenses liquid (at least in latin america) that I struggle every month to buy for my own contact lenses lmaoooo
Omg good I wasn't the only one that saw that lol
I know this video is old but did you know if you sit the cup on your blue squeegee, those 2 little things that stick up, it'll stop your cup from rolling everywhere.
Watching 2023 to start a 2024 craft venture. Thank you for this video!! I will keep this in my vault for reference and send people to watch it too. People may be on their DIY craft venture and learning ways to do things is so helpful. Thanks again!!
I think the Glycerin was the best. thanks for sharing
I agree with you. The glycerin is my favorite
Where did you get these snowglobe tumblers please mame and thank you helped me so much!!!
So can you use any of the product as a whole and not add water and could you mix the glycerin and or baby oil contact solution together?
I just watched another video where the glue was 2T to 4c water. When they used 4T to 4c(small snow globes) and it took the glitter 23sec to completely fall and looked clear. How much glue did you use?
Your video is very interesting for me, and I would like to do a snow globe with glitter and artificial snow, can you tell me a link for the snow suitable for this project? I hope you can help me. Sorry for my bad English, I’m Italian 😩
Thanks so much for doing this video, it really helped me decide what to use. I would definitely prefer the glycerine solution the best. Sending blessings & hugs!!!
Thank you! Not gonna lie... I started to panic hoping I had not bought the wrong stuff to try my first one. I didn't. I bought vegetable glycerin 🙂
Awesome! I love it!
Glycerin and contact solution gives me great flow and crystal clear! Just gotta agitate during fill or glitter will stay at top and cup will be hard to fill
Do you mix these half and half ?
After watching I wondered what the combination of contact solution and glycerin would look like. I'd also appreciate the ratio, if you don't mind. :)
what about baby oil by itself ? i’ve seen other shakers with just baby oil and seems to work good , but i haven’t seen straight baby oil on cups .
nice - TYVM for doing this for us all - you saved a lot of us a lot of money
The ratio of glue to water is 1/3 to 2/3 without shaking just stirring. I think the pipettes injected too much air as well
Hello and Thank you for the amazing video. I like the oil also. How much of glycerin do add to water?
I think she said 1/2 and 1/2 or I saw that somewhere.
This and the first video Best for beginners. I can't wait to start. Getting my supplies asap. Thank you
Thank you for this information. I practiced with an old tumbler and the glue mixture and had the same problem. I am going to purchase some glycerin from Michael's right now. 😉
Thank you for the glue feedback! I am here searching for feedback
Thank you for putting this in one video. I actually like the baby oil and water
You're so welcome!
For some reason I’ve never heard of this happening to anybody else but when I use the glycerin for my Starbucks snowglobe and Tumblrs because I have a small business and I sell them I let one sit for a few months before I actually ended up starting my business and the glycerin ended up molding which was really weird because I’ve never heard that happen to anyone else or maybe just people don’t talk about it but I thought it was so odd, now I use like 80% water and 20% glue but I just don’t know how I feel about it I want that super pretty slow flowing make sure without it being bubbly or molding
I’m so sorry that happened to you. It’s actually pretty common from what I’ve heard but I personally have not have it happen to me. I would try again using distilled water and glycerin and see if that helps. I’ve also head of some people adding a small amount of alcohol to their water. I can’t confirm for sure if it will work for you but those are some methods I’ve seen others talking about.
Love it. I hope to create cups as beautiful as Your’s one day! 🥺😍
Thank you so much, you will!
What one is better for beginners?? Need help
I did my first one! It turned out so cool. I used my favorite iridescent glitter and threw in some holographic stars as well as some glow in the dark stars! ❤
That sounds gorgeous!
Which solution did you use?
I think the one I'm going to do as a gift I'm going to use the contact solution seems the most hastle free and guaranteed sterile. I've seen a lot of molded glycerin cups.... ick but maybe those people use tap water.... I'm going to do some as practice anyways before the real one and I had a few ideas Inwanted to play with anyways!
Yes the contact solution is the most straight forward! I’d totally go hassle free for a gift lol
Thank you for posting the differences I am new to this. Also at the end when you covered the holes what type of resin do you use?
I used the Fast Set Resin from Counter Culture DIY (CCDIY). There’s a link in the description of the video.
@@crissycreatesofficial Thank you I saw your post afterwards, so sorry.
No worries! I’m always happy to help💖
So awesome! The most helpful video I’ve seen. Now I can’t stop making them lol
When I use a funnel, I found it works faster when I poke the glitter down with a toothpick. I swivel it around the bottom part and goes much quicker.
I know you probably answer this question before but what solution can I use to slow down/suspend the glitter
For quicker way to fill the cups. I used condiment bottles from the dollar store
Thank you for that video! I tried the baby oil and it was a fail for me! I think it was more to do with the skinny tumbler I had which had limited movement! I ordered the glycerin and super excited for its arrival on Friday! Thank you!!! ❤️❤️❤️
How did it work out on your 2nd go around???
@@aliciat2216 I used the 50/50 glycerin and water. Used more glycerin if you want a slower movement with your glitter. Also I’ve bought arcrylic cups from Amazon which look exactly like Starbucks but had a hit and miss with it leaking from the rim!!! I tried a Starbucks one surprisingly with no problems. I was so worried with it leaking from the drilled hole but it was the dam rim!
I used UV Resin around the rim to prevent leaks.
What solution works best with clay slices?
Can you put this in barrels of those fillable pens? Also do they clay sprinkles hold up in any of these liquid combos?
What if you used glycerin AND contact solution?
Will the loctite drip in? I tried using Furntirue bumpers to plug, and they are too big or thick for the cups I use. Without it, my gorilla glue epoxy would drip in and it doesn’t work very well. Will loctite take care of this? Thanks in advance!
Very informative, thank you! Just a shame your ring light prevents a clear view. Can’t really see it, but got the idea
So basically the contact solution is the best
Its definitely the most straight forward to use but a lot of people prefer the water to glycerin mixture.
So if you use contact solution you don’t use water? And if the baby oil do you get a non scented one? And how much water do you mix with the baby oil?
Loved your tutorial. It raised my confidence level quite a bit. I’ve been struggling with the snow globe tumblers, so wanted to give this a try. Purchased TERVIS tumblers which are similar to Maars brand. Loved the glycerin option, and was told to use distilled water instead of tap. Was unaware about molding so I may try a few drops of bleach. Can’t wait to make these. Thanks for sharing this wonderful information.
Hey when sealing with resin , do you need to wear a mask ask if you would with epoxy ? I’ve never use either but I know epoxy is very toxic ?
Thanks for sharing this!!! I was also wondering if can you put these in the freezer?
I love the video, thanks for experimenting for us. One suggestion, the lighting is great for you, but so much glare on your cups we can’t see them clearly.
Glycerine is my favourite
Baby oil only and baby oil mixed with glycerin might work. Also I have never done this before.
I’m tempted to see what would happen if you combined contactless fluid with glycerin?
Same! I came to the comments to see if anyone has haha
If you like the contact solution, could you not just use water?
Have you ever tried mixing the contract solution with the baby oil?
Can't you mix the glitter with the liquid to make it easier to getting cup and keep it from sticking to thr sides of cup?
Hi, how do you avoid mold growing with the glycerin mixture ?
I was told distilled water can help to prevent molding. Since this video non of my cups have not molded and I did not use distilled water.
