Coasters


So, I've been playing around with resin. Resin is liquid plastic (basically). It's really cool because you can trap almost anything you want in it. Sooooooo I got a few molds and have been trying it out.


This first one is a christmas theme coaster. I bought some of the snowflakes people use for scrap booking and captured them in the plastic. I'm working on some more christmas ones right now. Maybe make a set?
Then this one is made with pressed flowers. The flowers are very picky. If they are not completely dry they loose their color when their in the resin. This look is going to need a little more practice. Hopefully soon I'll have these up on my etsy site.
