You'll also need
- Fabric with a small, distinct design - fabrics react differently in resin, watch the tutorial to help you choose which will work best
- White cardstock, if you decide to back your fabrics as shown in the video
- Waxed paper or another non-stick surface (back of your doming tray would work, if you're not using it for other projects :)
- Sharp scissors
- Whatever jewelry findings you want to use to turn your piece into wearable jewelry. I used Sterling Silver Accent Pins linked through spacer beads, with 2 jumprings at the ends and a lobster clasp.
- Paper towels

You can make bracelets and charms with this technique, follow the tutorial above. These can also become buttons, magnets, pins, game pieces, and more!
I'm loving this technique! It's easy to do and super-versatile. If you're looking for the best resin supplies for beginners, or if you've already got skills, you'll find everything you need here at little-windows.com. The video above shows how to select the best fabrics for this technique, and how to treat them before applying resin so you get the best looking results. Some fabrics will need a white backing to help the design pop.
The projects you make with this concept can be simple, or lead into a layered fiber wonderland. We have the best resin jewelry starter kit, and unique resin jewelry supplies to make your ideas come to life. In the video I focus on the Resin Doming Technique that Brilliant Resin does so well, but there are lots of ways to use fabrics in your castings too. This is also a great project for mixed media, so throw in an image, a charm, some pigments, or some beads for extra dimension. In addition to the best resin jewelry supplies, this how-to video will walk you step-by-step through how to turn your fabric scraps into awesome bracelets and charms!
To finish this piece I drilled 1mm holes in both ends of each car, used Sterling Silver Accent Pins linked through spacer beads, with 2 jumprings at the ends and lobster clasps. See our Wire Wrapping tutorial if you need any help with that part.
For this piece I drilled each flower charm, added a jumpring and hooked them onto a charm bracelet chain.
