Holographic butterfly moulds - how will they work with black resin?

Last year I uploaded a video on my channel, making holographic butterfly and hummingbird suncatchers using holographic silicone moulds. In this video I am making some with black resin, so see how the holographic texture translates on black.
I bought the moulds and suncatcher chains from Temu, but I have made the decision that I will no longer be buying from them so I haven't included links to the exact moulds. However, holographic moulds are available from Amazon and most other companies that sell silicone moulds. I've also included detailed instructions on how I attach the beads and finish them so I hope you find that helpful.
Materials used:
- Holographic silicone moulds
- Apex High Gloss two part epoxy resin from Just 4 You Online
- Vista liquid pigment in black - from Vista
- Split rings - from Amazon
- Suncatcher beads
- Nylon thread - from local haberdashery shop
- Small hand drill - from Amazon

That black resin gave a far more stunning effect than I anticipated! 💜

Thank you Mizz. I wouldn't have thought of doing it if I hadn't seen it done elsewhere, but in real life they're utterly stunning. I love how at one angle they're totally black then suddenly the colours are there. Amazing :)

Beautiful flutterbies Mary, more effective than I would have guessed. You're getting so good at this!

[@marymcintyresfxartcraft7417]

Thanks Peter. The holographic effect on black absolutely blows my mind!

I’ve never thought about using black resin in a holographic mould, these are beautiful ❤

[@marymcintyresfxartcraft7417]

I'm glad you like them. I wouldn't have thought of using black if I hadn't seen Naptime Creations doing it, but I'm so glad I tried it because I absolutely love them!

Where did you get the mold.

I got it from Temu. I always list where I got things in the description box.
