For those of you who don't know, I will be releasing new resin video every friday! Yei!

This video is the first of the many resin videos which I have planned for the furture.

I will be covering this vial charm in today's tutorial.

Full video with the material list and source here:





  • We will start with mixing the resin in 2 parts and harder in 1 part as I m using 2:1 mixture.
  • You get these measuring cups as well..so I'll mix 5 ml of resin and 2.5 ml of hardner at one time.
  • Mix them thoroughly in a mixing cup but slowly.
  • I have sped up the video so it might appear like I am mixing too fast but I actually mixed it slowly.
  • You will come to know that it's mixed thouroughly once the creamy colour is gone and it looks transperant completely. Usually it should be mixed for 3-5 minutes.
  • Once they are properly mixed, pour it into the glass vial and insert the sea shells inside it.
  • Place them and remove any air bubbles with the toothpick or skewer.
  • Let it set for sometime..approx 4-5 hours.
  • After the first layer has set a bit, don't let it set completely but just enough in order for it to hold the other layer.
  • If it's not set enough, the 2 ND layer will keep through the 1 St layer.
  • How to check it?
  • Poke the 1st layer with the toothpick..if it feels sticky enough with such strings coming out, it's the correct time to pour the 2nd layer.
  • Mix the resin and harderner again in 2:1 ratio.
  • Cut the holographic sheet in small pieces and then mix then in the mixture.
  • Pour it into the vial and let it set completely.
  • Every resin has different pot and curing time.
  • This 2:1 resin has 12 hours as curing time.
  • Please check the instructions on your resin package to check out it's curing time and work accordingly.
  • As I wanted to use them as charms and necklace pieces, I will attach a finding in all the corks.
  • Cut some excess portion and then carefully insert it inside the cork...cut out the excess part.
  • Secure the corks in the vials with a strong adhesive.
  • Then put the laces, necklace cords or charm cords and these magical vials are ready!!
  • Hope you all enjoyed today's video don't forget to like share and subscribe to our channel.
  • Thank you.

Hello crafty people! :D Today I will showcase how to create magical gift tags using embossing powders. You can also follow me on these social media accounts: https://www.facebook.com/houseofillusiondelhi/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNGR6yuGN1tm2HzpwuYQOIA https://www.instagram.com/thehouseofillusion/ Dreamy gift tags Take white coloured cardstock tags. Cover it with anti static powder. Stamp the "Follow your dreams" stamp with Versmark ink. Put "Buttercup embossing powder" by Ranger over the stamped image. Colour it with Hot pink Tubby craft ink pad. The embossed powder will resist the ink and keep it's colour thus giving it a 3D effect. To give a vintage look, put Chocolate Brown ink on the sides with the finger daubers/blending foam. I repeated the same step for the other 3 tags. 2nd tag:  Embossing  powder: Clear. Ink: Juicy Orange and Lavender Violet. 3rd tag: Embossing powder: Blue. Ink: Yellow 4th tag: Embossing powde...

Take the LOVE chipboard sentiment by Mudra, paint it red and adhere it with "love" word upwards, inside the dome with the help of double adhesive tape. Cut very small thin tape, just to cover the chipboard on the edges or else the shaker elements will stick to it if there is any excess tape left. After drying, the dome will look translucent as this mod podge sheer pain...
