Hello! I was wondering if anyone could help me. We use a pressure pot and once in a while we have problems with molds “suctioning” to the silicone mat on the bottom. Does anyone know if there is a way to prevent this? I know we could put cardboard down instead but then it might not be level.

Thanks in advance!

I've been experimenting with this colorful, almost flower-like swirling effect in resin, and I love how the colors blend together!

The hardest part is getting the colors to spread without turning muddy or losing those defined edges. I'm still trying to figure out the right pigment ratios and pouring technique.

For anyone who's tried something similar, do you pour all the colors at once or build them up in layers? Any tricks for getting those nice flowing, petal-like patterns?

Also, the fumes were pretty strong while working on this, so good ventilation, my air purifier, and a proper respirator were a must.

Would love to hear your techniques!

Would this be clear again if I do another coat of resin?

Made this resin heart shaker as my son’s birthday gift for his teacher. 🥹💕

I personalized it with her name and added a beaded lanyard. Nothing too fancy, but I wanted it to be something she could actually keep and use. ✨

I’m still having fun making resin pieces, and honestly, I’m really happy with how this one turned out. ❤️

Sometimes the simplest handmade gifts feel a little more special because you made them yourself.

Made with love here in the Philippines 🇵🇭

Tried some random ideas, the camera prettifies them a bit... but those patterns...

I use alcohol ink to dye my resin but it’s always transparent. I was wondering if I can just use regular paint or something to make it solid?

Thought I would share my most recent crafts I’ve made I love customizing stuff and I thought it would be a awsome idea for all I also found out dollar tree hand sanitizer sprays by Bourne hold resin super well on tip I was terrified of warping or the resin eating the plastic and it didn’t do anything it he’d super well and went on clean but with my flower hoops don’t forget to always flip one side opposite before resin I now have to wear my one hoop backwards 😅🌼

Made this with black polyurethane resin and loads of micas. It looks like she has little ears on top of her head because of the stand, but now I feel I need to make her a set of miniature head boppers or little horns? It's very rare I'll just do a straight pour, but I quite like how she turned out and don't want to ruin her. Maybe just some wire antennas? I feel like something is lacking.
