Point of interest - I use one of those wood skewers for planting seeds! Sticking the skewer into moistened soil makes it just wet enough that when you place against very small seeds, they stick. You then just stick the skewer in the soil, give a little twist to dislodge the seeds, and voila! Very easy way of planting that doesn’t require me trying to wrap my big fingers around small seeds.

I remember when you made the paperweight with dried flowers. You inspired me to purchase the flower press book from GS. It was my Christmas gift. I'm excited to start pressing my flowers this spring/summer. I love the candles. You're so creative. 🌻💗🌻💗

These are stunning and so special because you can preserve your favorite flowers. When you get flowers for a special occasion, you can keep a piece of them forever. So very smart.!!!

Laura, I just went to Amazon and typed in “resin”, and a whole world appeared! You can make jewelry, paper weights and much more using the dried flowers! You can have a ball next winter!!

This is a great project. Also very versatile; when you have used the candles, you can clean the votive and replace with a battery operated tea lights, then hang on your garden Christmas tree.

How beautiful! Years ago I got started press/drying small flowers and leaves! It was addicting! Love the teeny little Queen Anne's Lace (individual nodules on bigger flower). They're gorgeous on black or dark cardstock. I use big fat yellow pages. They work great.

When my nephew (now 24) was little, he LOVED making miniature scenes with anything he could find around the house. He simply adored everything mini. I think it's wonderful, Laura, that you have this same "love of little," because you make a miniature garden scene every chance you get! :) Your mini gardens are our favorites. Also, I hope you decorate your church for Resurrection Sunday!

@barbkrejca Год назад

Thank you for your guidance in creating resin candleholders with flowers. May I add another idea? If you pour your resin and mix, then put it into a warm bath and allow the resin to begin curing until it gets fairly warm and thicker, you can pour it into the glasses and insert the candles. Immediately add the flowers and plant parts. In that way, you won't need to constantly poke the items down again and again. All resin products have a "flash" point for setting up as semi-cured. The trick is to find the right point for the resin you are using.

@joanshute3384 4 года назад

Hi those are beautiful my question is the real candles. I was wondering if I could use one if it's safe or just stick to battery operated ones?

@tanyaflynn2237 4 года назад

You could also look into drying your flowers in the shape of the flower (not pressed) with a drying agent. Then do the same project or make paper weights, or "glass" Christmas ornaments with a flower in shape inside.

@tanyaflynn2237 4 года назад

Using silica gel

These would make a perfect setting for small decoupage images or for me to use my stamps to make beautiful little fish and seaweed. Dinner settings would be another great place to use these, especially if they were personalized. You sure have inspired me this morning, my mind is reeling with ideas.

@coleyounger1985 4 года назад

Just a thought: use a glue stick, mod podge or some other type of clear adheasive to “pre stick” some of the flowers onto the votive before you put it in the resin. It may or may not work, but that might save a bit of time on having to reposition the flowers so much, plus you can kinda get it to look like you want it too without having to use a skewer. 🤷🏻‍♂️

@tempbamboo 4 года назад

Cole Younger With resin there’s usually a waiting time until it’s thick enough to put items in that will move around when the resin is still too liquid. When working with resin I use tweezers and toothpicks regularly. Mod podge or a glue stick would have worked but the glue would have been noticeable if not done extremely carefully on the first glass jar, and there would be a lack of depth if they were all glued to the votive glass. She could have glued some to the first glass, and some to the votive glass to try and create depth. The way she did it is pretty close to how I would have chosen to do it for the look she wanted.

@jonicarter9684 4 года назад

I love how you where just walking through Jo Ann’s and thought I can make that. I’ve done the same thing many times. I’m thinking this would be a nice gift for my granddaughters to make in the future for teachers gifts.

@Tracy-zj4sr 4 года назад

You’re an excellent teacher, Laura. I especially like these accelerated, start-to-finish project videos, with no narration and then your commentary afterwards. I’d like to do a small set of these, using just ferns, but quite literally inserted. My question is: does the plant material have to be dried? Ferns would be so much more vibrant if they were fresh. I can’t see a reason why they have to e dried, do you?

Resin doesn't like water, so it's better to dry them first. You can use silica beads to preserve the color.

Those are really cute candles. I've used 2-part resin in the past to make basket bases. I used the resin to encase flat rocks because it was easier to drill through the resin than it was to drill through the rocks. I don't remember the brand of resin I used. It came from the hardware store and set up really fast.

You could for sure get the cost per candle down to under $4 by using pretty much any other resin. I know Artsy Madwoman has a bunch of videos about resin, specifically about using dried flowers and Evan and Katelyn have put resin on everything but their cart. They have a lot of good info and resources for where to buy. This would make a really great bulk Christmas gift
