Those of you who are my regular viewers may have noticed that the only resin you\u2019ve ever seen me using is Magic Glos UV resin<\/a>. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s a reason for that, which I explain in today\u2019s video!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

An example of what can be made with 2 ounces of epoxy resin.<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In today\u2019s video I will share my thoughts on this resin, my results, and tips for having success using this type of resin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While recording the video I mentioned that I planned to test UV resin vs. ArtResin with fresh flowers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I used fresh flowers in UV resin in my Nature’s Treasures video<\/a>, many folks speculated that this would not work with another type of resin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I tested seven different plants from around my yard.<\/strong> Six were picked fresh and one was dried, as a kind of control. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In spite of dire warnings about moisture content in the plants keeping the resin from curing, all the ArtResin completely hardened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
