Hi Teresa,

From the sound of it, it sounds like your room was too cold.  Ideally, the room should be about 70 to 75 degrees Fahrenheit.  Running the space heater will help, but you may also want to gently warm up your resin next time.  Place it in a very warm (not boiling hot) pan of water for 5 to 10 minutes before using.  Dry your bottles well to avoid water contamination.

Good luck!

Does the temperature of the room make a difference when doing a resin pour?  I finally had a successful, near perfect pour…then the next pour was disastrous.  This last one was a cold day, so I had the space heater going.  Would that cause strange, large bubbles (single bubbles in most cases, some clusters in others) to appear in the corner of pendants?  I watched them diligently for about 1/2 hour…then assumed they were good and clear of bubbles.  Then, the next morning found these obnoxious super large bubbles that FOR SURE couldnt have been there when I was watching…???

Help?!?!  🙂
