 Welcome, Melissa. Welcome. Honey, it says, she says hello, but it doesn't say anybody's in here. Welcome, everybody, to the wonderful world of what are they doing today? And today, we're gonna finish our Unity piece that we started last week. If you didn't see how we made this, make sure you check out our video, the last video we posted. So, the quick version is we did a Unity ceremony at our wedding in Mexico. We didn't have the proper materials because they got confiscated. The confiscated sounds horrible. I tried to bring 91% isopropyl alcohol into Mexico and border patrol like it. The Mexican TSA jacked it. So, yeah, now we just redid it and today we're gonna finish it with you guys. I just sealed it with some of this UV archival. Make sure it is in matte. Right here, matte. Because if it's not matte, there's gonna be alcohol properties in it that's going to basically wake up your alcoholings, smear or remove your alcoholic. It's not gonna be cute. So, make sure it's matte. So, B, now it is your turn to talk about what you're doing. Well, I just cut a sticker. I cut the sticker, the decal that we used for our tumblers. Then we gave all the guests. I thought it would be fit too. I just not want to come off on this. That is one thing I do. Sometimes you just have to rub something stiff on it. Babe, it's not dark yet. I think I just got it a little dark. I could just say rub something hard on it. It's not gonna be different. That's true. But see, sometimes you just need something a little bit stiff to make it... Alright, so if you guys ever have trouble putting decals on this stuff, especially large stuff like this, what you do, do that first. Make sure all the decal comes off first. Don't take it completely off unless you can put it back on your transfer paper. Do that. Then kind of peel it up. Take a piece. This is a small piece at the top. So it gives you a little bit of stickiness, right? So that way, you can see where your piece is at. Line it up, get it straight. Does that work? They can see that. Make sure it's all nice and even. Make sure we got it in the center. Or mostly in the center. Then what you do is you just stick that part down right here. Then peel this up. And take your paper. Hello everyone. Do you need a squeegee or anything? No. Well, did I turn this paper over? Why is it sticking to that? It's sticking back to the paper. That is... That's nail. Yes. Alright. So then peel this up a little. Then it's kind of hard to see, but you're just going to... Because the sticker is already most likely off of this, mostly off, you're just going to kind of push it. Push it along the back. You're just kind of pushing it back and forth like a printer. Zoop, zoop, zoop, zoop. That looks beautiful. Zoop, zoop. You're just pressing it. You're basically allowing it just to kind of fall onto the surface here. Everything made it. The thing is, I hope it sticks because I've never... Have I put stuff, sticker on, to something that's been sprayed with this? I don't know. I'm just concerned that it's going to pull everything up. Like the alcohol ink. Yep. What, what, um... Well, just down there so far. It almost looks tight, I.E. I think I just didn't dry it enough. Also, that's what she said. Hey! I can't say that she said you're on your own. That little something, something's not even noticeable. I love it. Rainbow. Rainbow, rainbow. It's beautiful. I love it. Zoop. Do we need to do anything with this before we add resin to it? No. Do I need to? I'm asking you so that people can know. Do we need to do anything else for details? Not that I know of. I mean, if you notice any bubbles, like literally any, there could be some bubbles, but the way I did that, it's rare that there are any bubbles. So, I would just... I'm going to see if I can get some of this singe off this corner. I doubt it, but... Now I feel like I need to... Hear me out. Can I just line the whole outside with black vodka? I don't know about that. Because this is visible. So, can I just... Zoop. If you want. You want to do it. Be right here, steadier. I'm not doing it. How come? I miss how that was cut. How the decal was cut? Oh, Roxy. I'm going to flip it if it was... I just cut it on my cutter. My decal cutter. You're going to flip it, what? If I cut that by hand. You could. It's good. So, this is a chisel tip Posca pen. PS, if I started carrying Posca pens, would you guys be interested in supporting my shop with Posca pens? Let me know. So, I'm just going to put the tip on the side and just edge. I'm going to just go along the edge. I did not say rim. I thought you were actually going to put it on it and do it. No, I'm just trying to... Mother of Pearl, be help me. Help me, help me. It's water based. So, if I get something with water, it should come off, right? Right out of it. Be some of that has alcohol on it. I understand that, but... When you have all of this over here, you need to hurry. That cup's going to start getting hot. No. You're getting all cocky and fast, huh? I was trying. Lesson learned. What can I do? Okay. Judy, in black? Question mark. Yeah, because the singed part was black. I mean, it's not a lot. It's just to cover up that singed that was on the edge. But now I have this... B. Hear me out. Mm-hmm. Can you just do a couple of your these? No. On there? Mm-mm. Just this? And white. I would accept white. Nothing's ever ruined, you guys. You just have to work within... Have a me. Yeah, you have to have a B, but then also work within... It's not even warm yet. Oh. You know what this guy says? Flip the tip? Well, you can, but first, like, there's... Just build up, just get alcohol and clean that off. Because that's what's doing that to that. It's just, once you start one, then it's just... A lot. Okay, I'm going back to see what you guys may have said. Hello, everyone. Thank you so much for being here today. You didn't miss anything just now. Jeff Air draws before he full draws. Gold would have been pretty around the edge. Yeah, but kiss it, yeah? I could have seen that. I'm sorry, Arlene. Make sure your notifications are turned on if you are not getting the live notifications. What about cutting a thin vinyl border? I don't think my resin will last that long. Thank you, Carol. Dope kicks, Jeff says JJ. You're my fun shoes. Do you have a little gold bead? Oh, that would be cute too. Maybe we'll put that on the top layer of resin. Thank you, Brenda, for reminding people to hit the like button. It really helps us. And you guys, subscribe and like and comment and Bowie. Interacting with the channel helps us to get higher in the algorithm. Hello, everybody. Just made my first epoxy pyramid this weekend. Turned out great. Made it for my wife for her anniversary. Get married 17 years. Puff hearted. That is amazing. Congrats. Happy anniversary. I'm sure it looks amazing if you would like. Post it in our 80s poor people page. We would love to see what that looks like. See, this is why we always recommend that everybody takes time to doodle and etc. Because, for instance, is like this. You never know when you're going to need some doodles. How about that extreme close up? My grandson would love it if he carried the pens working on it. So, Jennifer, that's where my rose piece is right now. I'll show you guys what that looks like after I get some resin down on this piece. I'm still really struggling with what I want to do with the background. I don't want to just fill it with ferns. So, ultimately, I'm thinking about just pulling in more of that rustic, melty, drippy line situation. I love it. Are you done? Are you good? I'm just trying to cover up these guys. A lot of that stuff. Oh. Yeah. Looks great. Thank you, Bee. Look amazing. Look amazing. Okay. So, I have some resin mixed up. Stone coat, art coat, best in the biz for all the reasons. I'm out of it in my shop right now, but I have more on order. Especially if you're working with white in your piece. It's awesome to have. I'm also going to mix in some Milky Way. Not a lot because I don't want to make my anything cloudy. And you can always add more if you can't take it away. So, just a little something. That is so much resin. Are you going to put that on something else? Do you have anything else to put it on? Oh my gosh. Do you have something you want me to put it on? No. Maybe put it on this. Put it on Tudor's piece. Okay. That is a little bit of sparkle in there. Yeah, I definitely went over the three ounces per square foot. Even that is a lot, huh? Now I'm just slowly taking it all the way to the edge. While we did seal it in, I just don't want to take any risk of anything reactivating or anything of the sort. So, I mean really soft handed. And it is a kind of a lot that I put on here, but I really want to have a nice dome. Meow. Need some fuego. Nope, nope, nope. I love it. Are we going to put it up with the rest of our wedding care finalia? I'm sure. As soon as this piece cures up. Yeah, on its edges. I will post so that you guys can see it. It's flawless right now. Clear on the bottom. Let's put this on, we're going to put this on Tudor's piece. This is a piece that Tudor did. And we haven't put, we haven't puttin, puttin. We haven't put resin on a canvas in a while. I'm going to see how that turns out. Definitely been a little while, honey. Oh, he says hi. I can right now see why. Because you can just see it all going towards the middle. It's just a little bit heavy. I forgot she put, she put some bling in there. What? Some bling. I would move that with your hands. I don't think I got it. Oh. Might as well. It's going to sink in the middle. I don't want you to get sticky bee. Chloe. Sorry y'all. I'm yelling in your mic. So Tudor did this piece, how long ago? A couple months ago. A month ago. You heated this already? Mm-hmm. Well, you just reheated it. Remember, we're going to put resin on this. On your piece. This is what you did. Is that the one I did? Yeah. Yeah. She's like, I did a dad gum good job. I helped you. You decided on all the colors. Excuse me. Smell this. What does it smell like? Like a candy? I don't know. Did they put a scent in there? It smells like something. It smells like something. Right? ATV Fireball now smells like some candy from my childhood. It smells like Halloween. Hey, we heated it with heat just one more time because I put more resin on it. This is upside down. Okay, fine. It can be rotated. Hey, everybody. What's up, Mike Reed? What do you do, Mike Reed? How are you doing? So when people are up there at that place, tutor, when they sell something, do they sell it right away or do they say, you have to wait? In what place? What town? Visual? Yeah. When they sell it? Yeah. Does it come down? Right away or do you say, you have to wait? They're like, hey, I don't care. So we probably need to do a couple extra pieces for sizes like that. If it sells, they can take it, and then you just go to the back or I don't know how that works. They have room for something like that or we just bring stuff up there. Hi, big boy. I bet you guys were recording. We are. Both. I don't know. It smells like... At first I thought it was pepper and then it wasn't. It smells like... almost like a candle, but without something. I don't know. Smells like something from my childhood. It is. That is it. That is how you flood coat two different kinds of paintings. One's with a decal and one's on canvas. Now, that canvas one is going to dip a little bit because we did not prep it. If you're interested in figuring out how to prep a piece for resin, we have plenty of canvas prep videos because it's the nature of it. It's going to dip a little bit because resin heavy. We pick up my that, the rose piece. This is how the rose piece looks. Again, I'm not really sure where I'm going to go with it at this point. It may be a piece that I just put up and just look at and think about until it comes to me. I just... I'm not sure. I think I'm just going to do more of this. Just kind of bring it down to make a background. It's hard to add a background after you have a foreground without messing up the foreground, trying to do a background. But I have pre-recorded all of this, so I'll be doing a full video. I did some of it on Marcy Mix Media Girls channel, but a good majority of it is just going to be posted. So, yeah. What do you guys think I should do with the background? I use 91% alcohol sprayed on back of a canvas, tighten it up. It works. Still have lots to learn. Kelly, you can just do that with water and hit it with a heat gun. Save your isopropyl alcohol. If you use, like, a house paint over it, that'll tighten it and it won't relax because the paint will hold it in its spot. But that's... I have a whole video on it. Kim really says I have a resin question. If I have a fully cured resin painting on a cradle board that I want to do over, do I need to do sand it or anything before I pour over it? So, most people will say yes, sand it first with, like, a 220 grit just to give it some tooth. I have never had a piece delaminate. That's not to say that it won't, depending on the condition. So, it's always better to be safe than sorry. Bye, Shelley. So, sorry this video was so short, but that's what we were up to today. If you have any questions or suggestions on how I should do this background, again, what I'm thinking about doing is just pulling more this color down to have something in the background, but not distract from the foreground. Let me know. Comment down below. And Judy, that's an awesome suggestion. I'm definitely down for adding gold leaf to this. Maybe Arlene, I'll do stencils. Jennifer, my pleasure. And we'll be doing a video on this piece. I feel like it's like the emperor's new clothes. If you can't see it yet, then you just don't have the eyes for it, because it's basically almost done. JK. I agree, and Kate probably would. Also, my Vanna White is always tutor. So, yeah, I hope you guys have an awesome rest of your day. Especially if you're in the future in Australia. Yeah. Sue, that's not a bad idea. You guys always have the best ideas. So, yeah, y'all have an awesome day. Be kind to one another, because you never know what someone's going through. And I'll always remember we do the test. So Bowie doesn't have to, because he's so cute. Bowie, you don't have to, do you? No. I like how he shook his head, no. Anyways, we'll be back tomorrow early for our Vanna White live. Thank you, Carol, so, so much. I will show Jeff your car. Hold on. It's a portrait of Stormy Cat. You have a beautiful, beautiful, massive kitty cat Shane. Hold on, I got to show off TG's car. Can you look at so, you know how TG son unfortunately passed away? She inherited his car. Oh, wow. This one. How fun. It's a nice car. She wanted me to show you. Jennifer, I do have embossing powder. And also Shane, I would love to paint your cat. So, yeah. You guys have an awesome rest of your day. Also, that's Sue for sure, for sure. And we'll see you guys tomorrow. Oh, no worries, Carol. Y'all have a great night. Bye. Bye.
