    I found your videos yesterday and I’ve binge watched. They are the best I’ve seen on this tumbler phenomenon. I really like that there’s not a lot of chit chat and you move right along. You are easy to understand and your extra tips are appreciated. Your tumblers are beautiful. I also love the glimpses of your personal life: wife, mother of triplets, hairdresser, crafter! Girl you rock! I don’t know if I’ll ever try the tumblers......toying with trying for gifts but I’ll continue to follow you.

      Sharon H Plamondon Oh please try! You will love it! This is a great tutorial to follow because you can use inexpensive cups! I am just editing a tutorial on making a cup start to finish with dollar store supplies (all except the epoxy and safety equipment)

    First let me say that your videos are the best out there. My granddaughters & I are thinking of starting a small business doing tumblers and I was wondering if you would do a video on the basics of pricing the various types of tumblers...we live in the heart of the Midwest....Iowa...and we haven't a clue as to how to price our tumblers.

    • @henrysgirl4111
      @henrysgirl4111 4 года назад

      pricing varies widely according to your economic are and supply cost, it would be impossible to map out a pricing point for every area...

  • @valphil6874
    @valphil6874 5 лет назад +6

    Love your videos. I also wondered about using plastic tumblers. Question what about condensation? Will that do anything to the epoxy? Thanks

    • @LittleLeeandRose
      @LittleLeeandRose  5 лет назад +4

      val phil Nope! The condensation is just on the outside. Water on the outside doesn’t mess with epoxy (luckily or this wouldn’t work at all because you wouldn’t be able to wash it. If water gets behind the epoxy it’s because there wasn’t a good seal between the epoxy and cup. But if that’s the case it’s doomed regardless because you can’t wash it or get it wet at all

  • @Rad0226
    @Rad0226 5 лет назад +7

    Love this!!! My question is if the cup is squeezed too hard will the epoxy seal crack? I’ve purchased these cups before and was able to break them by squeezing them...... I would love for this to work because I’m thinking cups for all my sons classmates!!!

    • @LittleLeeandRose
      @LittleLeeandRose  5 лет назад +13

      sarah cassman when epoxy is used on any cup you need to treat it like a glass cup. If it drops it will crack if you squeeze it hard, it will crack.

  • @rachaelb9164
    @rachaelb9164 5 лет назад

    We never put plastic cups in the dishwasher so this is perfect. No worries of heat messing with the epoxy. Much cheaper than metal tumblers too, though they don’t keep ice quite as cold. How do you wash the silicone brushes though?

    • @henrysgirl4111
      @henrysgirl4111 4 года назад

      epoxy won't stick to anything silicone so just pop off the epoxy once it's dried or wipe with a paper towel/baby wipe immediately after you are finished

    Is the epoxy safe through the plastic since it is not double walled? Not only for consumption but with the condensation from the cold liquid will it breakdown the epoxy?

    • @ambitiousimagination
      @ambitiousimagination 5 лет назад

      I did a comic book page on a plastic bottle and to me the epoxy still makes water smell funny. Although I put it top shelf dishwasher and it melted because I had heat dry on so that may just be the smell I’m smelling.

    • @henrysgirl4111
      @henrysgirl4111 4 года назад +1

      yes, she only uses FDA compliant epoxy witch is safe once fully cured and no, epoxy is never dishwasher safe, don't soak it, and don't leave it in a hot car.... standard practice for all things epoxied

    • @henrysgirl4111
      @henrysgirl4111 4 года назад

      you wait until you can grab the cup without leaving finger prints, this is to ensure that you have mixed your epoxy correctly. Yes, you sand if needed, wash with a little Dawn soap and water then apply your epoxy

    Is it true at applying epoxy to plastic makes it toxic? I read this in another group post. They recommended not to use epoxy on the .99 cent water bottles from Walmart. TIA

    • @NamelessGrace
      @NamelessGrace 4 года назад

      Sandra Ruiz the concern is that the heat that is produced by the epoxy will cause the plastic to leach toxic chemicals. This is the same as when you microwave plastic. I would definitely use BPA free plastics if you do this. Again though, if you microwave food in plastic containers the danger is the same, so it’s up to you what you feel comfortable with.

    • @henrysgirl4111
      @henrysgirl4111 4 года назад

      once fully cured and as long as you are using a FDA compliant epoxy, it is non toxic

    @karitac2984 5 лет назад

    Thank you so much for this video! I tried the hang method a week ago on this same water bottle and it came out sooo bad because I realize now it was because it was too much epoxy and it started dripping. My question for you is can you pop microbubbles with alcohol? I've heard you can pop them by spritzing the cup with alcohol after if you don't have a heat tool.

    • @LittleLeeandRose
      @LittleLeeandRose  5 лет назад

      Karita Drake yes you can but I find heat to work better. You can take a cheap lighter and run it across the top of the surface if you don’t have a torch

      she only uses FDA compliant epoxy which is safe once fully cured.... make sure you are mixing your epoxy correctly and you are getting all the micro bubbles out with a torch or heat gun (it will be cloudy/not shiny because of bubbles if you don't)

      Oh okay I watched other videos and they said heat gun so I ran out and bought one. Now I need to get a torch! Ha my husband is starting to wonder what I’m up to!!!! Tonight I painted a bunch of the plastic tumblers I bought at the $1 tree. Right now they have a bunch of fun tumblers and the lids are different colors. I was actually going to test using the epoxy on one then I came across your video. I’m glad I did now I can go to town with them. Thank you for your video, you’re great and I am following you!

    I have found plastic bottles just like this one at the dollar store but they are not hard you can squeeze and flex the side of the bottle. If dropped or squeezed will the epoxy crack and break off? Or does it reinforce the plastic so you can no longer squeeze and bend the sides in?

    • @LittleLeeandRose
      @LittleLeeandRose  5 лет назад +1

      B Pratt all epoxies cups need to be treated like glass cups. If you drop it it will break. If you squeeze it hard it will break , just like a wine glass would

      @bp4548 5 лет назад

      LittleLee and Rose Thank you, ma’am. I didn’t know if the epoxy would reinforce the plastic enough or not. Do you think it is hard enough for small hands(4 to 6 year olds)? I have feral children who might try to hulk out on a pretty cup. They know not to throw and break things on purpose but might try to show me how strong they are. I don’t sell much, I mostly just craft for fun and gifts for family. Your videos have been amazingly helpful in keeping me on budget, I don’t waste epoxy and I don’t have a ton of fails/mistakes eating up my supplies. Thank you!!!
