I have a question , I am hoping you will answer. I loved those coasters you did that changed color with the heat. Do you think , that would work with the rings you made using the washi tape & glitters? I hope you see my comment. Have a lovely day! ❤

    I adore them! We planted irises and grasses around our pond to attract them. In evenings and early mornings, they dance around in the air and are so beautiful. They are amazing creatures who wouldn't harm anything. I have them land on my arms and shoulders and walk around with me even.

    Debra, we need dragonflies, they eat mosquito larvae. Dragonflies are harmless 😊. And they have striking colours😊. That said , I understand your fear, mine is cockroaches 😱. Plenty of them here in Australia. Lucky I also have plenty of beautiful dragonflies in my garden😅.

    Stunning!!! Love that you didn't have to dip the wings to get them covered in resin! I've seen flowers made with resin and wires.... Always dipped 😢😢 I wanted to do something like that but can't justify the cost of special resin for something I may not like doing. I have to try this!!!!

    You are one of the more innovative crafters when it comes to adjusting projects; wondering if you can help. I bought a bunch of light switch cover molds, but they won't go flat onto a wall because the back is flat. Any workaround suggestions? They would make such great gifts, but I can't get them to work.

    Thanks! I tried attaching while it was bendy. It didn't work, because I think the back needs to be hollowed out. I didn't try dremeling yet, but I will. It just seems like there should be a better way and it is a lot of resin to grind out. Thanks both for the ideas! I think that this is one of those molds that is a great idea in theory, but not practice....lol
