WOW!!! I just found you and I am so happy I have!! I’ve been doing resin art for about 3yrs now and you are such an inspiration. Thank you for sharing all your knowledge 🙏🏻
This is so pretty!!!! You are a wonderful teacher! Thank you for explaining why you do the things you do- like example of painting the smooth side... and why you don't place resin over the tops of the cut glass. Absolutely so impressed by your teaching!! Thank you!! I'm subscribing! ❤
Gorgeous Linda ❤ A large community garage sale this weekend in my area. I'm so excited. Not that I need more, however it will be fun to find treasures.
Really creative and awesome project. I love that you also recycled. Wonderful job explaining the process. Wonderful teacher. Bliss and blessings, 🤍🗝️🌀🕊️🙏♾️🧚🙇🏻♀️🐉🤍
They are abbreviations for my name and the city where I live. Bon is for Bonnie and EKA is Eureka. Two hours south of the Oregon boarder, on the coast Your home is very lovely. And I like your tumbler, too.
Nice garage sale finds. I love the umbrella of flowers picture. Can't wait to try my first project but I don't know what it will be yet as I'm still watching and learning. 😃
@@crazyglasslady That is so kind of you to offer to answer any question on a problem I run into on my first project. I definitely will want to share a picture as you inspired me to try this. ☺
I love your glass creations ❤ I think you are a true artist which I am not 😊 I wish I lived closer to you so we could collaborate! My sister is the artist not me. But I think I could do the glass flowers 🌸.
I think “it’s in your best interest to…” is the BEST phrase I’ve ever heard in a tutorial. It’s so much better than the common “it’s okay if you…” or “you can use…”. As if we need permission to use the technique but in our own style. Ironically I have a punch bowl set sitting in my donation pile waiting for a trip to Goodwill. I would absolutely love to have this piece or something similar in my house. I’m realistic enough to know that I’ll never make it though. Too bad I don’t know any glass artists who would do it for me.
@@crazyglasslady I just might. I checked out your tool and supply list. I’ve wanted a tumbler for a long time. It’s on sale right now. I will probably buy it. I can try nipping some glass to see how it works. It’s definitely a medium that I want to create with. It’s so beautiful. Thanks for sharing your experience and creativity. I enjoyed your presentation style. Straight forward without the need to fill every second with chatter.
I have identical punch bowl set from 50 yrs ago wedding present. Did not sell @ last yrs g. sale but will try again this yr. 😂 After that I guess it will get donated!! Cute project! 🎉
I just got done framing my Diamond Art picture, & now I want 2 pour some UV resin on it so I can display it outside. I've never done it before so I was going 2 practice on 1 of my smaller ones. I dont go on FB anymore but I need a response for what I'm about to do, so I will look for you.
I am not sure what a diamond art picture is but it is not in your best interest to put it out doors in the sun because the resin will yellow and sun accelerates the yellowing process. Also if it is a large picture you may want to cover it with epoxy resin . Uv resin is usually used for small projects like jewelry because it is so much more expensive per oz then epoxy resin.
I LOVE your video's! I haven't seen them all...YET. You do an awesome job explaining everything. I bought some vases, and a beautiful decor glass plate from a well known store ( I won't mention the name here - although I would LOVE to just out them - LOL ) and not too long after, the humidity took the paint right off ALL of them. - UGH! - so upsetting. It actually all peeled/chipped off the vases and the plate! They were all left completely clear. I was wondering if you have ever experienced this? I'm wondering what it was coated with? Was it paint? Or, was there some sort of film over it? It seemed to be a film type of material. But, I'm not quite sure. Maybe that's how it looks when paint comes off glass? You may not even know the answer to this question. But I thought from experience of coming accross vases as you have shown here, or other glass items, maybe you know what is used on the glass? I'm just trying to figure out if the spray paint, or other kinds of paint will come off over time, or with certain temperatures. For example, what if the painted glass pieces weren't completely covered in resin, and a few pieces of glass were raised above the resin...would that paint eventually start to peel/chip off? Are there glass sealers that need to be applied? Thanks so much for any help or advice.
I’m sure the different companies use different types of paint or finishes and yes they do come off. I tumble glass and if it’s a painted finish, it will come right off in the tumbler, but no worries. Tamiya translucent Spray paints are wonderful and no they do not fade. you do not have to seal them. I have done an experiment, taking the yellow out into the sun and left it out there for over a month. I live in Florida where it’s very hot. It did not fade. It did not peel, it held up wonderful
@@crazyglasslady - I wondered if you lived somewhere hot. Florida definitely gets humid from what I hear! - (Ugh!) - LOL - We can all Thank You for doing your experiments out there in the heat for all of us. - LOL! - Thanks for your help! This video also solved the other question I always had - which was how to get rid of sharp edges. I just have one more question: Can I put curvy glass in the tumbler? Or will it break? Or, is it just unpredictable? I guess what I mean is: is curvy glass not meant to survive in the tumbler?
@@Tressa1772 curvy glass should be fine in the Tumblr as long as it’s not too thin. I have even used my larger Tumblr to cut long strips from stained glass to make stems for flowers. Some of them break, but the majority of them are fine.
I have a few pairs. It depends on how much you want to spend they have an inexpensive pair on amazon that I have used for years amzn.to/4d8rbBN my newest and most expensive ones are called Sea Bell wheeled glass mosaic nippers nippers they are wonderful and have a teal rubber ring that when you nip the glass actually grabs the piece so it does not fly. Normally with nippers when you nip the glass the glass flies across the room so you have to hold it down in a box ( You should do that anyway) Wits end mosaics I believe has them.witsendmosaic.com/mosaic-tools-supplies/mosaic-nippers-cutters/seabell-wheeled-glass-mosaic-nippers.html
I noticed sometimes you use glue and water mix and sometimes epoxy resin. What determines what you use. Your videos are great. Explanations are very thorough and you don’t waste our time with a lot of talking. Everything you say is very informational. Thank you for sharing.
@@barbaraturino777 Well the mod podge method the glue and water I came up with just to help people who don’t want to use resin there’s a lot of people who don’t want to use resin for various reasons one being that they are allergic to it so every once in a while, I like to show that you don’t have to do it with resin if you don’t want to you can do it with something else Like the mod podge and water
@@barbaraturino777 also resin is best if you’re using very heavy glass I mean, I like resin best in general, but it has a rule you can use the glue and water method with lighter glass, smaller pieces of glass
