How-To:

For this piece I filled a square bezel made from she'll with Brilliant Resin, laid the pressed dried flower down on top, then added a top layer of Brilliant Resin to dome the piece and seal the flower completely inside.  When you're working with organic materials make absolutely sure they're completely dry. Any moisture will interact with your resin and the result will most likely be un-pretty.




In this piece I poured a thin layer of Brilliant Resin into a simple metal rim bezel, inserted 3 layers of embossed Dichro-ish Films, with a few drops of resin between each, then domed up the piece for a smooth finished top.  The charm is loose and dangles in front of the pretty colored bezel.


I made some black and white resin using Resin Colorants, let that thicken up for 30 minutes, then drew and shaped designs using Tiny Pointy Swabs.  I then added some chunky silver glitter and let that set up.  Fed a headpin through the hole in the bezel and added a couple of beads and a pearl, wire wrapped the top of the headpin and fed 2 Natural Black Rubber Chains through.
