I love how you giggle and get excited, normally I turn the audio off but it’s nice listening to you

For your next octopus, black background with the iridescent flakes it will be awesome.

I love your art obviously. I also love watching your hands they resemble my Mom's. They look like a hardworker's hands 😊. Thank you for doing all that you do.

my favourite! he almost looks like hes been carved out of opalite/sea opal i love him xx

Aaaahhh, s/he's gorgeous! I like this a lot!!! Really shimmery in the sun, and you could see the colours in the shade. xx Would look amazing on a bathroom wall.

One of my favorite things to hear Julie say: "Next time"!!! Always stretching, thinking, creating! I love octopus. I think they are some of the most intelligent creatures. This guy is so glittery beautiful. He reflects so wonderfully! What to do with him? Put him somewhere to see every day and make you smile! Thank you, Julie!! Take care and stay safe!

i alway love it when you do part of your videos outside i love seeing nd hearing the birds

I am a scuba diver and all of my diver friends are getting these for christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!

Julie, 5 minutes into the video Aus Post delivered this guy to my door! Nice mould . And was happy that you gave measurements for the amount of resin needed, as I was a little unsure about that. Also thank you for the beautiful gift! Think I will turn it into a necklace as it matches a tank top I have.

Yep, do another like your faux opals xxx beautiful Oscar Octopus

Julie...you can also use Easter Grass that's used in children's baskets. It comes already shredded in big bags. Either colored or the iridescent kind. I've used it to make faux opal with resin. It works great.

my goodness, it turned out beautifully!

Really sparkly. Can see in a child's room. Or bath. It's an eyecatcher!

Love this opalescent version..,.Wow....

Wow. I would use this as a sun catcher or add chimes to bottom of tentacle for a wind chime. Thank you so much Julie. Xxx

I am not a huge fan of anything shiney and glitzy but I love this octopus!!!!! You'll convert me to a resin/shine lover yet!

Ooooh that jellypuss is so pretty and sparkly and shiny!

Oh this one is fabulous!! All I would change is, smaller iridescent flakes and maybe add black dots in the eyes (like your aqua Octi)! I want to see a Jellyfish in this same *recipe*. AWESOME!

looks awesome. it would look nice with a light behind it hung on a black coloured mount board

BEAUTIFUL, AS ALWAYS. EVERYTHING you do ls. Lorie in the U.S.

It looks really cool! I’d like to see that with a dark backing. First time I’ve seen the eyes!

This is fabulous too! I love iridescent anything ❣️ a jellyfish would be cool too. Can't wait to see what's next 😃

OMG I LOVE how you experiment & try such beautiful, interesting things, you are ever so creative & talented!!

She's as lovely as a cephalopod could hope to be! I have now hung up my nursing cap, and decided to retire, so now I'll have time to work on what I want here at home! First I need to get rid of some clutter so I can fix up my craft room. So excited!

The octopus u did with the inks came out crazy beautiful, great work as always ❤️‍🔥

That is so AWESOME!!! It came out beautifully. WOW!!! Stunning, if an ocotopus can be such a thing. 😉😊 So cute. 💕😊💕🤗💕

Love it! Love the shimmer!

Really pretty love the shimmer.👍🏻

I have to apologize. I get so caught up watching your videos I forget to click like!

Hello, I really enjoy your channel. I look forward to seeing your octopi collection grow. Please do a black back that will be so stunning! Since you said "him" I think he should be named Opie the Opal Octopus.

I love this one. The iridescent flakes are so pretty.

Wow Julie this is awesome,,, just beautiful

Love the mold, love him!💖💖💖👏👏👏🇦🇺

Absolutely gorgeous

Julie that is awesome. I love it.

Oh my gosh I’m in love!!!

It's brilliant Julie 🦋😘

That is lovely, he is adorable!!!!! You can definitely see the sparkle with what sun you had!!

Доброго дня вам, Джули! Очень красивый осьминог, и очень удачный молд. Широкие стенки молда позволяют распределить внутри щупальцев светодиодную гирлянду ( ленту) на батарейках или с проводом в электрическую сеть. Получится обалденный классный светильник! Я уже представила какой будет эффект. Попробуйте сделать следующего осьминога как светильник, ночник Привет вам, коллега, из Казахстана 😊🤝

he looks like a jellyfish being that color, its awesome

Wow gorgeous!!!

He’s lovely. I love your octopus pieces 🤓

Its perfect for an office as a paper weigh to hold the paper from fliying away or decor.

Resin day 🎉.🥳 🐙

That is gorgeous I love it

I would really like to have one of the octopus

That is too cute for words. I’m heading over to buy some molds.

do you have any videos that you show the different kinds of animals you have or that live around your house. seems like you have a large array of wildlife where u live. I really love all your resin videos, I learn so much and gets my creative juices flowing. thank you for all the time you take to inspire the rest of us 😁😁

I am amazed at your talent! And a little “jelly” at times! Thanks for sharing your talent with us!

What a beauty!

Very Beautiful Julie 😊

Toothpicks work great for moving things

**GASPS** Where is that octopus mould from?!? I am crazy about it!! 🐙😍

Wow just gorgeous 😍💕

I made One it came out beautiful just like yours thank you for teaching

Love the mould!

Absolutely gorgeous! :D

Beautiful!

This is so beautiful

I love the glitter in the clear resin.

Turned out gorgeous! 😍 Love the sparkle. If you wanted even more sparkle you should try to get your hands on some liquid diamonds. Another thing you could try with this mould is "painting" it with different iridescent powders (like the eye area one color and the suckers a different one, etc or just a randomly mottled effect) and filling the mould with clear, black or other colored resins to give different effects! BTW, have you tried dusting the mould with the interference powders, pouring clear resin then dripping alcohol inks in? Might give an interesting effect. Experiments, please? 🙇

I just love this beautiful octopus. It is just wonderful and the iridescent flakes are awesome.

so pretty love it

Love this!

Love it!!!

I bought some irridescent foil paper they called 'tissue paper' in the party section of HObby Lobby.

I go through so many baby wipes. I got the tip from you months ago.

So pretty! Love all the different colors that come out!

This is gorgeous Julie, can’t wait to see what other ideas you come up with for the octopus 🐙

I use to do that, we had rolls that were big

Absolutely gorgeous!!!

I just saw this resin on tiktok where it showed it mixed in the cup and said no pressure pot, no bubbles, no micro bubbles and you can see all these lil bubbles popping, lol. Then she made a couple things in a mold and holy shit it was the clearest resin I've ever seen for big pieces! No bubbles and just remarkably clear. It was something like rockers resin or something like that. I work with UV resin so I'll have to see if they have that. I'll get some epoxy to havenon hand tho.

I put the octopus on a ocean painting with resin same with my seahorse

This is crazy crazy awesome Julie 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Awesome love this 😍😍

Julie I absolutely love this, such a great effect

Julie! This turned out so great! I love the shimmer.

Idk if you have it in AU, but we have the shredded cellophane grass. Like you put in Easter baskets. I think that would be easy to cut up.

He's really gorgeous,,,as is the purple one you did in your other video. I think myself that it would really pop out the colors against a black backround, I did a cat paw with clear holographic foils and a tiny bit of very fine silver glitter and used black glitter with black mica powder and when cured and demoulded it looked so stunning, and very reflective, would love to get a mould of large dinosaur, 👍⚘

that would be a fantastic sun catcher for the window!!!

So pretty, loving this so much.

Wow💕👍👍

So so pretty Julie 🥰 Love that octopus (and your back yard) hehe

Really like the clear look love it 🤩💕

omg julie this its so beautiful ,,,do u have a dolphin mold or a cardinal or bluejay or a owl they would be beautiful too ,,i love ur work ,,,thank u for sharing ,,have a great nite

Do another one, I want to see how this one works out

What a stunning result! This technique would look ~ beautiful ~ on a jellyfish mould as well! Perhaps you could do a line of sea creature moulds? I would also love, LOVE, L.O.V.E. to see this mould done in color-shifting ink. It would feel true to the nature of the handsome fellow. 😉 P. S. - Thank you for posting so regularly, seeing beauty created almost every night is incredibly uplifting. Much love from Minnesota in the U.S. 🐙🐙🐙

Looks great so much potential ♥️

I sent a message to the Resin folks to see where it is available in the US.

Hi I just recently got an octopus🐙 mould and have been waiting to use it,impatiently!!!,,,, but got the chance today ,,its my first time using 2 part Epoxy resin I have a craft resin, in a large size of part one and two,, I colored the mould very lightly with a sort of bore effect with the mica powers that I have in a set of 15,, using orange rose red pink purple and violet and blue graduating up,from the legs,, measured out equal amounts of resin from part 1 and 2 and mixed up my resin very slowly as not to get Bubbles ,,, as they can be your friend or your worse nightmare!!! Then added silver holographic chunky glitter, to it,,, and added a little rose gold foil flakes to the tips of the legs on all ,, then topped up to the parameter,, BUT I am a little worried,,as the glitter seemed to sink maby I didn’t use enough ,, as I didn't want the mould to get too hot , at the moment the mould is on a silicon mat that's on a canvas on the floor in a spare room there's no table there ,,,so had to lay it as flat as possible ,, not sure as the curing times,, as writing is quite small to read any tips or help are rea.y welcome I'm sorry for long comment but need to know if possible. I've watched some of your videos on the octopus you done,,and they were beautiful hope mine goes well. Thankyou. 🐙

Set it on a black surface and you can kinda see what it would look like.

Ask flower shops where they buy there big rolls

Looking at the ready cut pieces they are small. I was wondering if the film could be cut with scissors and put in a blender. You wouldn't get the long clumps in the resin. I'll try it and let you know.

Man, you are so creative! When do you sleep?

I’m playing with my octopus 😂. God my mind is filthy x

It's opalescent isn't it? That's prob why a black background would possibly intensify those colours?

Hi.. Have you tried to light it Up with UV light in a dark room.. Thinking it might give a crazy sparkling..

So cute. Lots of detail. Do u ever use mold release spray. I've ruined 2 molds that had lots of detail trying to get my pieces out. A snowflake and a laugh mold.

I have cellophane wrapping paper from dollar store.

I guess you don't need release spray in the mold first? I see you didn't use it. I'm about to try this as I bought the octopus mold.
