    This is beautiful! I have actually done a tree with hot glue on canvas and used acrylic paint for it, so I used gesso over the glue before paintings. I guess since you're going straight over with resin, you don't really need to gesso the tree first, huh? Anyhow, I really love this. This is so pretty!

      @SueFindlay  Před 4 lety +1

      Thank you 💕 For the small lightweight pieces, I glue D-rings to the back using a heavy duty Tarzan Glue. The boards are too thin to screw the rings on. For the larger pieces, I use Heavy Duty D-Rings and Hanging Cord (Doubled Up). Sorry, I don't have a video on this.

      @ralitheiss2782 Před 4 lety

      Thank you, that is a really good idea. I have tried felt on the back with a small patch of it on top under the big piece. So if you need to hang the piece just slice there and insert the hanging part, glue and let dry. Yet have to make sure that everything is attached really good. Time consuming.

    • @SueFindlay
      @SueFindlay  Před 6 lety +1

      Thank you. Not sure how well the glue will do outside. It is covered in resin, so I think it will be okay. Instead of resin, you could add a gloss sealer. I would recommend sealing the back also, before using outside.

    • @SueFindlay
      @SueFindlay  Před 5 lety +2

      I haven’t used hot glue over the top of resin. I have however, used hot glue to create a free form style geode coaster. After a few weeks of curing, I was able to break the hot glue off the resin. I have found that hot glue breaks down over time, so do not think it to be suitable. I would use another material for your project.

    i was wondering if the heat from the resin curing may have melted the hotglue but looks like that isnt a problem here. do you think if you poured casting resin instead over it where its a thicker layer it would cause the glue to melt??? i dont know what the melting point of the glue is but just curious. thanks for posting this video - very nice!

      The base is a wood placemat. Any wooden panel will do. My website is suefindlaydesigns.com.au 💕

    I love this. Was the orange you added to the resin orange paint? Could you give a lesson on using resin? I have never used it. Everyone has scared me off it! 😂

      The colours were added to clear resin before pouring. I am considering creating a beginners resin course. 😍

      I didn't use clay in this one, I used hot glue for the tree.
