MERMAID DREAMS RESIN VIAL:

CLOSE UP PICTURES:





  • I have pre mixed the resin in 2:1 ratio.
  • Please see my previous video in which I have covered the basic of mixing the resin.
  • Mix the mermaid powder with resin in another cup and pour it into the vial and let it set for sometime which should be approx 4 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.
  • Please check my other video to see how to check if the later has set enough.
  • Mix another lot of resin and harderner again in 2:1 ratio.
  • Cut the mermaid foil 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.
  • I simply love the effect of both the mermaid powder and foil!
  • I am not able to capture the beauty of it in the video or the pictures at all but both shine with a beautiful tinge when you see it in person.
  • I wanted to use them as charms and necklace pieces, I have attached a finding in all the corks.
  • As I have covered the finding part in the previous video, you can check it there.
  • 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!!

Don't forget to stop by next Friday to see how to make these Kryptonite shots which glow in the dark!
