Interesting how it started turning blue right away!

@joshuabray37 8 месяцев назад

Nice! I was just wondering about casting live flowers, and thought, “I’d better check if Steve has done a video about this before I do.” Sure enough, here we are. THANKS!!! You are truly a treasure (don’t let anyone ever tell you otherwise)!

@CPegRun 2 года назад

I learned this the hard way!! I did find that Queen Anne’s Lace works very well in resin after being picked fresh

@charitienicholas9631 2 года назад

It gives a good example of anaerobic decomposition of plant life in a sealed environment...

@mamapillow8365 2 года назад

The best way to dry flowers is with silica gel. This is the stuff that comes in a little sealed envelope in your shoe box. You can buy it at the craft store. Most of the color will be retained because it drys quickly and evenly. If you want more color, put some glycerin in the water of your cut flower and after a day dry it in the silica gel.

I use those all the time for my soaps. I've covered my flower petals in paraffin and put them in resin after drying upside down and they come out pretty cool.. RIGHT now I'm actually working on a expierement with resin and high heels.. I have to get a patent on it first, but it awesome. I can't wait for everyone 2 see it..but I'm not a big channel 30 subs cuz I don't record or post everything, mostly cuz of $. And it's hard w no legs a thousand new techniques and I it's just disabled me, but maybe one day..

@justaddlivingwater 2 года назад

Oh, did you guyz know that the silica gel packets that the same exact ingredients is in Cat litter. I got it from a homesteading channel I'm subbed too, but yeah a whole lot more for less $..

@asherahlives310 2 года назад

A tip for keeping flowers and other imbedded items from floating in resin: Lay down a layer or 2 of UV resin to secure it in place, then, after making sure it's secured, then pour the epoxy resin on top. It gives you an anchor for it without LOOKING like an anchor.

@johannessordfarne4553 2 года назад

Thank you for showing and testing and trying all possible angles of it all, honest and all in a very good mood. :)

@cherukurisrujana464 Год назад

Thanks for showing the complete process.

@justaddlivingwater 2 года назад

Okay sorry so many replies, but why would anyone thumbs down ANY of your videos?? I don't get it..

@Kathy61954 2 года назад

I could write a book on "what not to do " in my crafts . I think I've made every mistake possible .

@justaddlivingwater 2 года назад

Me too.. But it took millions of failures to invent electricity and only 1 to succeed. What a break through..

@tinachappell520 2 года назад

Thanks for having the patience to show us what happens to fresh flowers in resin

@rozcindylove4583 Год назад

really useful. I was tempted.

@poonampozaoza5191 6 месяцев назад

Good knowledge given thank you

@bubblemum 2 года назад

One of the first things I learned, the hard way. Beautiful, colorful flowered popped into resin...which lost all color, lol. Now I carefully dry them first

@suzannequarles1736 2 года назад

Thank you for showing everyone what happens with fresh flowers!

@christinaperson1168 2 года назад

Wow that turned pretty ugly. Thanks for the demonstration! Definitely glad to know this. I flattened some flowers a while back that lost all of their color and assume it was the same kind of situation as this. Oh well we live and learn.

@tracygilder1229 2 года назад

Great demonstration, definitely want dried flowers 💐

@lindaeastment4542 2 года назад

HI Steve, Thanks for doing an Experimenting demo always very helpful to have lots of resin tips 👍 Steve, have you Tried silk flowers in resin ? All the best Lin

@shaunacorrigan9372 2 года назад

Well, at least it was fun to watch the flower start to change color pretty much immediately! Great "what not to do" video!

@susanneanthony4513 2 года назад

Thankyou, a lesson learned

@treeforge 2 года назад

I have had some success (only did it once) by putting several coats of hair spray on a fresh cut Lilly before casting.

@shazambrose3091 2 года назад

Thanks for this experiment. Glad I saw this before trying it for myself. 😊

@crystalgoakey7768 2 года назад

Can u do a demo of how to dry flowers correctly

@yoopermann7942 2 года назад

i found that same thing out, it stripped the color out of the fresh flower when i tried this, i didnt think to see what/how it would react over time though,, thank you for the tips

@maryann3820 2 года назад

I did this experiment too but my flower was yellow. It turned green also. I didn't realize the bright color would turn green too.

@dulceteixeira9097 2 года назад

Very interesting 😘

@lima3108 11 месяцев назад

Thank you very much for your videos. I need an advice. I’m trying to cast letter keychains, but I don’t know what kind of resin I should use for it to be completely rocksolid when it’s cured. Thank you in advance.🥰🙏

@lynnesinclair35 2 года назад

Can’t see that being received very well. But I am confused. How can you can a dandelion head because surely that has moisture in it, or it it so small an amount it makes no difference?

@lynnesinclair35 2 года назад

Cast a dandelion head …….

@lynnesinclair35 2 года назад

Hmm you live and learn x

@dcruicks1 2 года назад

Love your videos and sense of humor. Could you make your own mold out of different flowers including roses?

@dcruicks1 2 года назад

Oh awesome!! I'm excited to see if real flowers can be made into molds! You rock!!

@its._.sassypunjaban Год назад

If the flower is partially dried like only 1-2 petals are not completely dried then also whole flower will ruin? Or rest will be fine?

@anjalijoseph7164 2 года назад

I have tried to dry flowers myself..even kept in silica powder for a week,some for 1month..but some of them turned brown or turned greenish(light pink flower) could u please demonstrate how to dry flowers properly and what texture i should expect after drying them??thank u so much for ur tips and demonstrations..

@horsehaircreationsbykaren 2 года назад

Halloween decoration. We used to keep dead flower pots for that, on our desk at the hotel. We put spider webs on them

@mojoe7951 2 года назад

@karenwaddell4724 2 года назад

Thanks. Do you know if fresh leaves and ferns behave the same? 💖🙏🏻💖

They do.

@EKAdventures51 2 года назад

turn it into a pen holder, maybe a Quill holder :)

@deniseantler1942 2 года назад

I have a question. I’ve seen someone use nail stamping on a disc made of resin but I’m wondering if you were to use a sharpie or even an acrylic paint marker if it would work. The nail stamper I bought has sayings including a few in another language. I’d love to add my words. Is this possible?
