How To Preserve a Full Rose in Resin! 

You have helped me so much, I’ve been watching you since I lost my daughter back in Nov. I didn’t know what to do with all her beautiful flowers, and after finding your videos I’ve been able to preserve them and make beautiful crafts. I’d love to share the pics with you. You are a beautiful soul. I owe all my crafting to you!❤️❤️

Beautiful! I've been saving roses every Valentines Day since my partner and I started dating. 1 from the first year, 2 from the second, 3 from the third and so on. This year will be our 6th year and now that I am doing resin art, I decided to buy a large, tall floor vase and resin from the bottom up, each layer containing the roses I've kept over the years and continue to receive in the future. This video came at the perfect time because we were JUST talking about my idea on Friday. :)

Can we all take a moment and talk about how pretty she is?Like,gorgeous!

I’m currently watching everything I can on this because my best friend lost her mom 2 weeks ago and asked me help figure out how to preserve and use her flowers

The rose and I had a conversation, and she told me that “you did her right” and left her covered in resin. What a sweetie🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I just lost my little brother, and best friend, a few days ago who was a year younger than me. He gave me resin and always wanted me to use it. I am so grateful for your video as I am going to resin the flower I picked from his casket before my baby brother went down. Thank you so much for making this video.

Thank you so much for posting this!! My grandma passed away from cancer last year (2 months from diagnosed to passed) and my grandpa ALWAYS bought her a dozen red roses for there birthday and anniversaries. Yesterday marked one year sence she passed and he bought her roses. I really want to save a few and give them to a few people in my family. I was starting to get worried I would not be able too but This is definitely the best tutorial I have found. Thank you!

why do I love her makeup so much omg

That’s like the perfect amount of glitter!! 😍😍 I watched you grab the glitter and at first I was like that’s not very much, and DAMN I was wrong!! SO PRETTY 💜😩💕

I just lost my daughter, I had molds made of her hands and feet and I’m going around trying to find the best way to preserve them. I’ve come to the conclusion that resin is my best bet. You’ve gave me so much motivation to give it a try. I was so scared to ruin them.

That's beyond beautiful. Time is captured as a memory forever. Absolutely beautiful💜

Seeing her happy makes me happy for some reason

It’s so hard to think of the perfect word to describe this 🌹, I’ll have to settle for BREATHTAKING ❤️ Thanks for sharing this with us 🤗

This is a great video and it inspired me to preserve a cherry blossom in resin for my best friend's birthday! Thank you for making it 🙂

I'm currently drying white roses from my Dad's funeral and plan to preserve three like this for me, my sister, and my mother. Thank you so much for this detailed video.

This is so mesmerizing. I love how esthetically pleasing your videos are.

Thank you SO MUCH for this video, my Freddie Mercury rose is just about to bloom, I have my silica gel ready (thanks for that tip too!) but had no idea really how to best preserve the flowers. I'M SO EXCITED

This is gorgeous! I stumbled across your vid cause I was trying to preserve my dried flowers in my art journal! I just might do a flower like this for my mom to display! This is so cool! 😊

I want to do something like this for my wife, she loves flowers. That took you days of curing! Very patient person. Going to see you have something regarding drying the flower.

Thank you! Thank you! For naming the resin that you use. Casting my flowers have been a hit or miss and most other RU-vidrs don't say what type of resin their using. So helpful!

I've just started getting into Epoxy, & I'm so happy I found your page!! 💕

Wow the end result is absolutely stunning! I love roses and watching you work on this one was so therapeutic for some reason, and the info on this specific project is exactly what I was looking for, thanks for this video!💖

The coolest resin art so far😍😍😍

I think that's a Arizona Grandiflora Rose. My grandmother used to grow them. She said the colors reminded her of an Arizona sunset. This turns out so beautiful! Thanks for sharing.

This did come out just beautiful. I love watching you. Tink

So beautiful! I usually use resin to cover my paintings, but I really want to get into creating other pieces of art with resin! Love all of your videos ;)

That is super clean and clear omg

"I wanted to do her right. That sounded weird." *Jump cut* lol you're adorable! Missed your face last week!

AWESOME!!! Thank you for sharing your talent.

Thanks for your video I watched it lately wanting to buy resin and my garden has only like commenced over these past two years today is father's Day and the shops they had gorgeous full big pink roses and I made sure I bought them it was really nice that I watched your video and so I quickly tried to work out exactly - exactly whether I can reson art them and I will give it a go and thank you!

I wanna say so much for making this video. My sister passed away recently n my mom gave me one of the bouquets but im not great with flowers so i thought it be best to dry some out and preserve them in resin so its something we can always keep. This video means alot to me because of that.

Thank you so much for this tutorial, it's my fathers funeral tomorrow, I'm hoping to get one of the flowers so I could do something like this with it xx

I don’t know if you can, but would you try preserving dried succulents in resin?

I kinda like the one layer that was not mixed all the way. Looks almost like it is on "smoke" or "fairy dust". Beautiful job. I'm currently working on one from my grandmother funeral

Wow~ that 🌹 came out TOTALLY PURRRR~FEEECT... Just Gorgeous!

When I saw glitter I was like “eeewww nooo” and then I was surprised I didn’t mind it😳

Eeeeeeep! It’s so beautiful, when you held it up in front of the white wall it almost looked like you were levitating the Rose 🌹

Well done dear. Thanks for teaching

SO PRETTY! ANXIOUS FOR THE POLISHING VID.

Looks amazing, I’ve learnt so much in 24hrs since finding your channel x

I’ve been having serious withdrawals after you didn’t post last week lol. Love you!!!🌸 I just dove into polishing in my previous video because I was doing spheres. It’s a pain in the booty without a lathe🤦🏻‍♀️ your new space is so gorgeous!!! I can’t wait to see the tour!

Thank you for spreading your love and craftmanship

I’m new to your work & I truly enjoyed watching your process! I don’t know what more contagious- the beauty of your final product or your enthusiasm! Thank you for sharing your talent! 🤗

Hey girl I love how you dried your rose! I got roses from my boyfriend and I am trying to figure out how I should dry them so they don’t get moldy!! Any tips? Thoughts!? Please let me know, thanks 😌

You should do a testing 5 minute craft resin hacks Btw I love your channel just found you last month and have watched almost all your vids

Sorry.... I forgot to add that I LOVE your work. I love your honesty with what works for you and what areas you can improve in.

That is amazing!!! Every little girl would love that, I know my niece would. So many people want to touch a flower to get close but in doing so ruin it by touch it. If you sold those, I know men and fathers would be lining up. Such a great gift . I know I’d buy a couple

Absolutely beautiful. You just keep getting so perfect at these projects with flowers. Nailed it with this one. ❤️

Just beautiful, I have never been able to dry a rose that beautifully. Great job! I’ll keep trying now that I know it can be done

OMG sooooooooooooo beautiful.....wow an entire week to create!

I love LOVE your makeup in this video

I’m loving your videos! I decided that I’ll start making my own designs using resin & stuff because I’m tired of ordering from Etsy for everything lol 😂

What size mold did you use? This is gorgeous and I want to try to make one the same size. Love your channel!!

Wow amazing result defintly gonna try this. Thanks for the vid

While you were pouring each layer I could see the reflection of the rose in the resin,this turned out truly beautiful, love,love,Love,, your videos & your great personality..😊😊💜💜

Love everything you do! Curious how a black flower would look after you preserve it and put in resin.

That it so beautiful. I would be a bit scared to try. Absolutely gorgeous. Do you buy the silecon gel at hardware store. What were you drynling the silecon with?❤️

Thank you for being so detailed. My sister passed away 7/24/2021 and we buried her 7/31/2021. I have 2 roses i want to resin that are currently have in water. I'm waiting for the store to open to go get all the stuff to resin them. Thanks 😊

Omg so freaking pretty! I’m in love with this resin!

Hello, maybe I missed it, how much resin was use? What size of mold is this? Thanks.

This is soooo pretty! I can't believe you've had this rose since Thanksgiving. Are you some kind of flower preserving witch? Is there any way to prevent the layers of resin from being visible? Like pouring the next layer before the previous one has 100% cured maybe?

This is actually Edward Gwins wife...have been watching your videos over and over so I subscribed. This is the first time I’ve ever subscribed for any RU-vid channels. I’m a docent at the Dickerson Park Zoo in Springfield, Mo. and I have been putting artifacts into resin, like Viper snake sheds, cheetah fur, Giraffe hair, tiger fur, feathers and now I may started doing animal skat. You inspire me, Pam Gwin

Wow, beautiful!!!! Roses are my favourite flower. I just ordered my first molds and resin to give it a try. Super excited.

How do you keep from getting lines in the between the layers? I’ve done two flowers now. The top down view is perfect, the side view has lines from each pour? Thanks, also your vids are what got me into trying this myself. It’s a blast!

Can this be done for a whole wedding bouquet without taking the bouquet apart?

It turned out beautiful. I’ve been obsessed by this rose for years. ❤️

oh wow!!!! you did amazing!

Hello~ let me ask you something when i make goods for resin like pressed-flower coaster or paperweight include dry-flowers, i use casting resin. but there's a problem. the flowers are discolored.... your work dosen't. how is that possible??

Looking for advice on how to persevere a baby snake in resin?! I found a baby snake that died of natural causes. I want to preserve it in resin!!! Would I follow this video to get the same results? Or should I just pour the whole thing at once instead of doing layers. Baby snake is currently in the freezer. 😅

They are called Lipstick roses. They were my mother's favorite. If she were alive I would have done this for her. Beautiful project

Drying roses for resin is on my to-do list because there is a rose bush that my mother in law planted on the side of our house a few years before she passed away and this would be a wonderful gift for my wife to do something like Heather's doing here in this video.

To add to my last comment, how about dusting the edges of the black flower with the color changing pigments then put it in resin. I would love to see that done!

when you pour your resin and wait for the next layer to add, where do you store the resin (that’s already mixed)?

Love it! I am going to have to try this with a rose from my cousin's funeral for my mother in law.

watching this because my dad got roses for me to cheer me up,,these were the first flowers he got me.

Lol I love seeing your mentality “I’ve been waiting to do her” 👀 that sounded weird. You’d be someone who would get me and my jokes 😂

Where do I get the resin 😭 I’m new at this 😢

Suspended in time! I love it!🌹Completely elegant piece!

I thank you SO much!!! I tried this brand that you recommend and it works!!!!!! I've successfully preserved a peony on my first try and I'm ecstatic!!!!

Girl, why you apologizing about your nails!? We ain't coming for your nails! Your work is 💣

When I get married, I wanna do this with the bouquete 😍

Wow well done . I've found you searching how to resin a whole flower. I'm going to try . I would be more than happy if it turned out how beautiful yours did x

I so love love the colors.

I really want to get this done professionally with the first rose my bf ever gave me and I’d really like for you to do it for me I would pay you too !! PLEASE REPLY

WOWWWWW that looks amazing, I want to try it now

Beautiful. Amazing color.

I so love your artwork!!! My resin obsession just started this feb, and find myself watching vids about it. Saw your vid and i so loved it! You are great and jolly too. Fun to watch 😊 thanks!!!

Yes! Soo glad you have plans to focus on polishing in the future. Polishing spheres is something I’ve been struggling with lately, so I love that I’ll have someone figuring it out with me (or most likely for me, as I don’t have a lot of time to dedicate to my crafts alongside my full time job 😬) That rose turned out beautiful!! Love that floating look! I need to get in the habit of simple designs/pours. I would’ve been soo tempted to throw just a few little gold glitters in there. Just a touch of fine gold glitter, but I’m a glitterholic sooo…..😜

It looks so beautiful

Hi beautiful - you got me so excited about this hobby . My beautiful mum just passed away and this is perfect to preserve a beauty white rose for her - I have bought all necessary will follow your instructions and hopefully will look as good as yours / so glad to have found your channel 🙏

I commented a while back about you helping me preserve my great grandmas funeral flowers and just wanted to tell you my grandpa just passed and I am now preserving his burial Rose's in a 4 by 4 cube so this video could not have been more perfect timing and again girl THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!! I will also be getting married August 1st and will be trying to preserve flowers from it as well! I hope you realize just how much your helping people capture memories in a way that's more alive than a picture something you can use as home decor! (My grandpa was a cowboy he was amazing at what he did and riding was everything to him since he learned to walk!) I'm going to put a 3in horseshoe in the mold and put the rose in the center wish me luck! I'm also putting it up in a light up base and I'm really hoping it turns out! If you have any pointers, advice or an opinion on doing the horseshoe please let me know! LOVE your mad art skills girl keep it up!

I just Bought my Very first Glaze for a few projects! I’m SOO excited, and can’t wait to pick from my garden

Very beautifully done.

Very satisfying to watch the process a great vid 👍

Wow wow wow, stunning.

I learn SO much from you. Thx❤
