This is the first video that actually say how to make a hold on the pendants. I have been creating mine by wrapping them with wire. Now I can actually make a hold in them. Thank you for including that piece of information.

@TheMisojossonnegros2 Hello thank you and you are very welcome.

[Minajahn]

Hi, how did you make those holes for the pendant? Is it possible to saw the material if needed?

Thanx ^--^

[MonikaRoseCrochets]

@Minajahn Hi I used a rotary tool, but you can use a hand drill as well.

So disappointed that everything was so fast. Even if I did pause it I am a visual person and seeing you do it would have been more helpful. I really did like your charms though :(

@MonikaRoseCrochets Last question: what kind of wax? Polishing wax?

[MonikaRoseCrochets]

@LunarCrystal07 Hiya....I used "Resin Mould Release Wax". I bought it at Barnes in Australia....you can use similar wax. Put some in the small moulds and polish with a clean cloth.

[LunarCrystal07]

I'm not sure, but I think I have the same mold you do, and my question is this: how did your pieces come out with a shiny finish? My mold looks matte and so mine came out matte - but I was wondering if I missed something? prespray with release perhaps? Please help!

[MonikaRoseCrochets]

@LunarCrystal07

HI, I waxed the molds before pouring in resin. I have not tried prespray with release, but try that if you have it. I also used clear nail polish after the piece has fully curied and dried, i found that fantastic, gives it a nice clear and shiny finish. Enjoy ;)

huh??

[MonikaRoseCrochets]

@coolness1341 hi, what do you mean...you can pause to view instructions. It is only meant to be written instructions.

[merryclicker]

These are so pretty, they deserved a speaking presentation, even if you started with the resin already mixed and ready for the swirl addition. It would be nice to have you tell us exactly what you did. Nice job - next time talk to us. We listen well.

[HeyItsKleigh]

What do you do if after 24 hours, you pull out your charms and their still sticky with the mixture? HELP!

[MonikaRoseCrochets]

@HeyItsKleigh Hi...I would redo the charm. I think the resin mix was not in equal parts. Maybe you can dip the charms in resin mix and let dry..not sure...i usually redo.

[TheMisojossonnegros2]

@HeyItsKleigh I have found that the sticky mixture happens when the portions of resin and harder are not equal. They have to be of equal amounts

O_o this reminds me of james bond xD

[lemytree]

how do you do the holes for the rings?

[MonikaRoseCrochets]

@lemytree Hi, drill the holes after curing fully. Hand drill or rotary tool.

[clubpenguin1212100]

omg! theyre so cute! btw, do you bake resin or is it airdry?? :P

[MonikaRoseCrochets]

@clubpenguin1212100 Hi, thank you. the resin is air dried..

[Tina090408]

Beautiful and creative! Where do you get that mould? And where do you get the drill? Am new in US.

[MonikaRoseCrochets]

@Tina090408 HI thankyou :) The info is in show more under the video and the drill from any hardware store.

[GloriousMuminah]

this is too fast to read

[MonikaRoseCrochets]

@GloriousMuminah HI, just hit pause...

[TheGymnast108]

Cool

[fluffyfan07]

Could you do a tutorial on how to mix in colors instead of drops and swirls? I know you explained it on your blog, but I am still confused D:

[annemaclean27]

geezeeee fast enough!! i missed ALL the instructions!!

[MonikaRoseCrochets]

@annemaclean27 Hiya

Just hit pause!! ;)

[hockeychick1095]

How do you get the resin out of the molds? I have the same mold as you! But my resin is stuck in there :(

[MonikaRoseCrochets]

@hockeychick1095 Hello

Make sure the mixture is correct and mixed well. Also leave the resin in to cure longer. Turn mold upside down and press the centre and the resin should come out.

[Misana]

clear nail polish..won't that peel off eventually?

[MonikaRoseCrochets]

@Misana Hi..I nail polished some of my pendants and that was maybe year ago and the polish is still there. If need be just repaint them and look after them....

[Killinemdead1]

where do you get the supplies?

[MiZzRiVeRa86]

love your charms!where do u find your resin online?ever find it in any stores??

[FoxFind]

@MiZzRiVeRa86 Don't know if you got an answer, but I found about 3 types of resin (guess the only difference is maker and directions) at Michaels craft store and Joann has some too (only saw one on the site though).

[clarity023]
