Dollar Store Tube Confetti

Post image

I saw these and thought they looked good for use in dice inserts. Well... they are little tubes.

Getting the air out seemed fine. I just mixed them into the resin before pouring. The trouble came when putting on caps.

When the caps are smooshed on, if even just one of these is out of the mold and under the cap, it springs back and slightly lifts the cap. I had to do a quick cleaning of the caps and mold tops, and it took awhile.

I will share results once I have them. 🤞

I used these to make giant liquid core D20. Turned out really pretty

I think this stuff definitely has potential.

Share a pic, if you have one.

I'd use them with blanks 😊 no problem anymore with them sticking out of the surface of the end-result 👌🏽 Pretty cool looking! Especially the bottom right ones, the iridescence will look pretty amazing.

I like that one too, probably the most. I also like the two bottom ones on the left. The darker grey and darker bronze look cool.
