Today I
will tell, and most importantly, show how I create my jewelry with epoxy and
mold to make your own statement
necklaces.
To create
a pendant of the hemisphere as dried
flower jewelry, I picked up two different dandelion, so that you can
compare how they will look in the final version.
Before you
begin, thoroughly rinse all Molde, who are planning to use, wipe them dry.
Wearing gloves, pour into disposable cups resin and hardener (which is easier
to dial them with a syringe). We work in a well-ventilated area.
Measured
off the required amount of resin poured into clean, dry glass, the other
syringe Measure out the required amount of hardener and adding to the resin.
Different manufacturers of its proportions, so carefully read what is written
on the package and follow all recommendations for use. The accuracy depends on
the final result, if the resin is not stuck, so the proportions have been
violated, or a mixture is not well mixed with each other.
If you
take a syringe with a rubber insert inside the curing agent will not splash
when it was poured into epoxy. A wooden stick (can be used for barbeque
skewers) thoroughly mixed the resulting mixture. I I time to 10 minutes, and
interfering with a circular motion so as not to prevent air from entering.
After
mixing the resin where I leave - is half an hour, so that the chemical reaction
took place: to judge that the reaction proceeds can be warmed by a glass with a
resin. Empirically, I found that it is not necessary to operate in very hot
weather, the reaction will proceed very rapidly and the resin hardens
completely within half an hour. It refers to the resin, which I use, from
different manufacturers - different criteria.
Carefully
pour a thin stream of resin in the MDL, a dandelion. Because after curing it
settles a bit, pour so as to obtain a small convex lens.
