i found this video searching on how to make resin key caps. i realized your channel name kind of sounded familiar and i realized i used to be obsessed with your polymer clay videos from 8 years ago!! so glad i found your channel again and that you’re still doing crafts!! all love <33

Oh my goodness. That keyboard was already adorable, but what you added to it just made it AMAZING!

[cindy]

Your reaction when popping out the keycaps were so cute omg <3 and I love that you included info about keycaps + a haul with the video ;; this whole video was so cute and cozy aAAA <3

my toxic trait is watching one how-to video and thinking I can perfect it on the first go 😅😂 I loved your reaction when you started popping them out 🥰 this video was very helpful! i want to personalise my keyboard, so this has given me great inspo.

Such and informational video! And they turned out so cute. 😂😭 just wanted to say an extra thank you for pointing out the importance of safety equipment for working with resin - I’m always nervous when I see creators using bare hands and mask less around that UV resin!!

I know its been a year since this video was uploaded, but I just managed to make enough money to purchase some epoxy resin and the same exact molds you had. I just tried making this yesterday, but was unsuccessful as the stems were too short and the resin wasn't hard enough due to over doing the resin and under doing the hardener. I'm going to keep trying until i succeed, but thank you so so so much for bringing this to me. I am a custom keyboard enthusiast, but the idea of making my own resin keycaps just popped up here. Thank you so much. I really appreciate it. (Also I'm a kid, so that's why it took me a while to earn the money. I only earn a few cents or a dollar or so if I'm lucky.)

i remembered somehow your clay video that i watched when i was like 9 so i came back to your channellll

So, a tip for the holo powder, holo powder looks pretty good with most colors. However, if you really want it to *pop* then use it against black. Same goes for most chrome, holo, or color shift pigments.


Also, my favorites were definitely the paw print ones! They're so cute! I definitely need to try this.

I literally had second hand excitement when you opened the molds! Soooo cute

[cirivere]

Maybe if you sepparate the bottom molds you can centre them better per keycap?
I love how the colours turned out!

[bumme]

The pink cat paw is the cutest 😭 I’m getting the model

[MeetMInCali]

I would say my favorite are the white keys with the green and pink paw print! This video was so entertaining!

[hail]

Time for me to get some key cap molds! These are adorable!!!

[meaomoonlightwolfy]

Omg! I love that Sumikko Gurashi Neko and those cat paws! Amazing 😻

[Sandrastruyck]

[imannasan]

[eoeoeo]

I was inspired to do this myself from this video so thanks for the idea

[colbyjack]

This is super awesome! I love working with epoxy!

[joeyjordison.]

Omg I have been trying to find how to make these key caps.. 😃so COOOOL

[tradeology]

Well done, I was curious about the process. We’re having custom keypads and caps made for a product our company is going to sell. You should be able to file and polish any that are too large. I’ve worked with resins many times and a couple minutes of effort can fix the issues that you had.
