Doing resin can be tricky. It must have exact measurement to have good result. I have found an handful of product that are easy to use and where I was satisfied with the result. I think it comes from personal taste for those products. What I liked the most is putting it into molds. I have found molds that have interesting shapes. I like to play with shapes and colors as seen here:
I haven't used them yet. I do have many ideas on how to use them. I am thinking to do some bead work with the cabochon. The leaf could be great on a pendant. The butterfly is delicate. I can't drill a hole in it. I haven't think to do anything with it yet. Maybe doing a bezel with it. The heart shape transparent one will probably end like the cabochon, in bead work. I am also thinking of putting a white cloth behind them. I think it would accentuate the color. I have to see if what I think will translate into reality.
Those pieces are among the best example I had successfully made. It would be time to use them and makes my ideas a reality. Even if it is more fun to do them that using them. This is my problem but I don't think I am the only one in this situation. I could sell them as is but I feel like cheating. I feel they are kind of nude. They need to be finished up in something more complete. It is as if they are not complete. I do have this kind of sensation with some of my writing, when it is not finished.
