Forever Rose in Resin taught me so very much about silica crystals drying flowers, #CastingResin , how to use a #VacuumChamber, tried out a theory with my rose, and yes I had failure along the way. I cover a great deal of information and details on the entire process for a #ResinPyramid. Learn what worked for me and what didn't so you can avoid costly mistakes.

I ABSOLUTELY Love this 🌹… I remember as a little girl growing up in the 60’s seeing the “rose in water globe” at my Grandmas place. But these would eventually dry out and leak after so many years. To see you create a Real 🌹 that is permanent touches my heart and is priceless 🌹💜🌹

How nice Holly. Happy this made you think of fond memories. ❤️

@vernalc2449 2 года назад

That was an AWFUL LOT of effort and time you invested, but the end result is nothing less than spectacular!

@MoonkusserArt 2 года назад

This pyramid was definitely a lot of work. Happy I stuck with it. 🌹

@belindaadams3109 2 года назад

You've made it look so much harder than what it is. A Dehydrator is so much faster to dry roses.

@MoonkusserArt 2 года назад

That sound like a great way. I don’t like the residue left behind from the crystals either

@OGrams-yr3tt 2 года назад

You can dry flowers in cat litter at a fraction of the price. I have done it for years works as good as the Silica.

@MoonkusserArt 2 года назад

I don’t like the silica much. It sticks to the flowers

@SherryinAB 3 года назад

I’ve seen many videos where this type of mold seems to stick, almost better to make one out of the store bought one! Turned out absolutely gorgeous!

@MoonkusserArt 3 года назад

I will be reapplying the mold release next time to see if that helps avoid silicone sticking to the pyramid. And definitely, no torch 🔥 Thanks Sherry.

@mookzmom 3 года назад

Oh, I'm so glad you showed this! I have a vacuum chamber and a pressure pot, but am still too scared to try them out. lol...I do have silica gel for flowers as well as the microwave pressers and also a big, special pressing board just for flowers and leaves. I'm hoping to brave up and just jump in soon. It helps to see you show the way!

@MoonkusserArt 3 года назад

You can do it Pam! I need to know how you do with the pressure pot 😁. Halfway through this project I was thinking "why did I go so large for my first project!?" I'm happy to know it helped.

@susanmobilia8311 3 года назад

Thank you for your video I have just started doing the pyramids the first one looked great but the mould got stuck on one side , so the mould was ruined: The next two turned out okay but I learnt from watching yours about more depth for the flowers 🌸. Looking forward to seeing more of your work

@MoonkusserArt 3 года назад

I learned so much making this. It really is very challenging to create these. Glad the video helped you. Thanks! 😁

It’s gorgeous! I did the same thing with my pyramid mold. I’m still trying to save the piece but get frustrated and have to set it down for a while. Good luck 💜

@MoonkusserArt 3 года назад

You can do it! Keep at it. I know I will 💪

@connieball319 Год назад

I've learned of you let the reain run down a popsicle stick. It helps with bubble- if you have any. Just a tip. ❤ love your videos

@MoonkusserArt Год назад

Yes it does. I do that now too 😊 Thanks Connie

@djdpe Год назад

For the bubbles you could have taken a hand drill and drilled down to them then fill it with resin. It will cover it up like sanding just make sure to clean out the holes and don't leave any shavings in it.

@MoonkusserArt Год назад

Ah, in a perfect world

@franciscoramirez225 3 года назад

Use lithium grease. Rub it on the mold after you spray and your mold will never stick. Its been a game changer for me

@MoonkusserArt 3 года назад

Thank you very much for that tip Francisco. I will try that for sure.

@neesaroman5182 2 года назад

@MoonkusserArt 2 года назад

@N0N4M30 3 года назад

@@MoonkusserArt thank you! How long will the finished piece last ? Forever ? If not set in sunlight ?

@MoonkusserArt 3 года назад

All resin yellow over time. Definitely keep out of sunlight to avoid the uv rays and it should be around for a very long time 😁

@karenwaddell4724 3 года назад

Can you put the rose in the vacuum machine? It looks beautiful ❤️. I have a pyramid mould with a mark and I put some tape there so I just make sure I don't fill above that spot. Saves on resin. 😁. Thank you for the video. ❤️🙏🏻❤️

@MoonkusserArt 3 года назад

I don't know about the rose in the vacuum chamber Karen. They are so fragile when dry I didn't want to risk it and when pulling the vacuum it bubbles like soda which would create a bigger issue I think. Great idea to mark the damage line on the mold 👍🏻 Thanks for watching!

@lekishamccloud5248 Год назад

@mizpahshearer1659 6 месяцев назад

Either spray your alcohol in the gap between the mould and your piece or some soapy water!

@MoonkusserArt 6 месяцев назад

The mold was scorched. 🥲

@MileyonDisney 3 года назад

That torch will ruin your mold, no matter how careful you are. It will melt to your resin and tear when you pull them apart.

@MoonkusserArt 3 года назад

And it did 😞

@janesavage4733 10 месяцев назад

Hi, next time instead of using a razor blade just get your heat torch and torch the area carefully, It softens the resin and you can move the mould away from the resin item. Love this creation.

@MoonkusserArt 10 месяцев назад

I will try that. Thanks 🌹

Can you use a nasel blub to blow out the dust and stuff?

@MoonkusserArt Месяц назад

Not sure. I don't think it would work

@nandaamaharajh 2 месяца назад

What would happen if you don’t sand down the edges ?

@MoonkusserArt Месяц назад

The edges are sharp. They would scratch surfaces.

@Lindaraylong 2 года назад

Why do you use the alcohol? It turned out amazing. I tried it with just putting resin over a rose. Bad idea. The resin got hot and the rose welted to a big hump of yuck. First time ever trying to use resin.

@MoonkusserArt 2 года назад

The alcohol is to help in bubbles in the resin to pop on the sides of the mold. You are a brave soul to try casting a rose for your first resin project! Hope the video helps for your next one 😊

@TK-fv5jv 2 года назад

Can you just use the roses without drying them first?

@MoonkusserArt 2 года назад

No. The moisture causes rot to the flower in the resin.

@incognito4522 3 года назад

Why not put the rose in the vacuum chamber after pouring while its in the cup

@MoonkusserArt 3 года назад

The rose would not hold up well I don't think. When the resin is processing it foams up a lot which could mean more bubbles trapped around the petals.

@Serena-777 Год назад

Would you recommend a vacuum chamber over a pressure pot

@MoonkusserArt Год назад

I have never used a pressure pot.

@pleum7288 Год назад

Will it last forever?

@MoonkusserArt Год назад

I truly don't know. It is 2 years ago now and it looks just as perfect today.

@superbkitchen5958 2 года назад

Why did u put the resin in layers

@MoonkusserArt 2 года назад

You must do in layers or the resin heats up to much.

@TheTrackdriver Год назад

I discovered this today - the hard way. I had built a box in plexiglass that was a about 500 ml. I had put a couple of figurines I had cast earlier in resin on the bottom of the box and filled the box with clear resin until it was full. The temperature raised quickly and kept rising. Last time I checked it, it was well above 100 Celsius degrees. The glue on the plexiglass mold started to melt, the figurines were melting too and the resin turned brownish in the center. I had worked on this project for a week and it was ruined within an hour. Another lesson learned.🔥

@MoonkusserArt Год назад

Oh my! That was hot. So sad that it ruined your hard work @TheTrackdriver 😢

@TheTrackdriver Год назад

@@MoonkusserArt Yeah, but your video convinced me to buy a vacuum chamber so no more bubbles😀
