      Hi Lisa…your videos have been super helpful since I have started with my jewellery making business. I’m using loctite gel based super glue as well as suggested in this video and I’m also giving it 24 hours of cure (not touching them) to be on safer side but lately I have seen some of the components still coming off. I’m not yet into resin, wondering what could be the reason.

    Thanks for posting this. I was actually wondering about this subject the other day. So this video help Soo much.
    Also, can I give you an advice?.
    *For future videos let people know with a disclaimer about the dangers of using Resin.
    A lot of people are beginners and don't know about it until they get a bad reaction from fumes like me. Those fumes are lethal, please use proper ppe, mask, gloves and I beg you don't use it in your house.
    Resin was a passion of mine until it nearly killed me.
    🙏🏾💞Many blessings sent your way.

  • @Love72Yourself
    @Love72Yourself 3 года назад +3

    Another thing to consider that you might not know about epoxy resin, is that some brands recommend you don't mix less than 2 oz because it will not cure properly so another reason why it's not the best for jewelry making. The only reason I know this is because I do resin art and make clay jewelry
