Without checking, take a guess as to how many photos you have on your phone right now.
Now take a peek. Were you close?
Out of all those photos, how many do you enjoy looking at regularly?
I don’t take that many personal photos (most of my photography these days is of my creations) and I’ve got 328! I’ll bet many folks have thousands.
Today’s resin project involves getting a handful of special pictures out of our phones and into a piece of memory jewelry.
Tools & Materials:
- Filmstrip ribbon
- Chunky bangle mold #414
- Bangle bracelet mold #390
- 14-28 photos printed at 3/8″ x 5/8″ (10x16mm)
- Glue stick
- Packing tape
- Mold release, recommended, but I forgot to use it
- Craft knife
- Resin Obsession Super Clear Epoxy Resin
- Waxed paper
- Cups for mixing resin
- Resin mixing stick
- 400-2000 grit wet/dry sandpaper
- Flitz metal & plastic polish
- Clear acrylic sealer, optional
