<ul>
<li>Wear gloves throughout this project because we’re coloring the Jewelry Clay with several drops of alcohol ink and it will be quite messy.</li>
<li>Black and silver are a magical combination but why not experiment with a different resin color and use gold, copper or variegated leaf in place of the silver – you’ll be amazed at how different the result is!</li>

The casting is very quick so there is no time to start pulling out things once you have begun stirring. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Spray the mold with <a href="http://www.eti-usa.com/mold-release-conditioner">Mold Release & Conditioner</a> if needed. Let it dry, this is important. I was impatient and my piece had texture from the spray embedded in it. Fortunately, it is just bonus texture for me! If you want a smooth finish make sure the mold is dry and smooth.<br />
<br />

As per the instructions included pour equal amounts of Fast Cast A & B into a plastic cup. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Stir with a wood stick for 30 seconds.<br />
<br />
Pour into a 2nd cup and with a new stick stir another 30 seconds. Immediately pour into your molds. Be careful not to over pour. You can also drip resin from a stir stick if the mold is intricate to prevent over flowing your mold. I had extra molds standing by in case I had too much resin. I managed to pour 6 molds before I ran out of time & the product would no longer pour.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Wait 10-15 minutes to set. The Easy Cast will gradually turn white as it cures.<br />
<br />
Here is the super cool part- once the resin is released from the mold you can easily trim any excess off!!! At this stage, it is a bit pliable- so amazing!<br />
<br />
Trim efficiently as the resin does harden further so your finished piece is good & strong. You can still go back & trim it at 1 hour set it is just harder.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-5eaDVmw1W0zKQJAY6WiqVJoZ8LYGa7tEf2eJA3gB_AQ3vSLpa46MZHRzOmET7ZQfWCxck7aCZz2Z_Wk37-5yP7cn7tVs0cdMNjMtOl5H00JNFZ07BDcvY-joD5NppYoMbJAgr0-gGXO7/s1600/resin+necklace+4+karenbearse.blogspot.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-5eaDVmw1W0zKQJAY6WiqVJoZ8LYGa7tEf2eJA3gB_AQ3vSLpa46MZHRzOmET7ZQfWCxck7aCZz2Z_Wk37-5yP7cn7tVs0cdMNjMtOl5H00JNFZ07BDcvY-joD5NppYoMbJAgr0-gGXO7/s400/resin+necklace+4+karenbearse.blogspot.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
Time for paint. First wash your piece with soap & water, if it was used with Mold Release. Let dry & you are ready to paint. I started with a coat of gesso. This helps give the piece tooth so the paint can adhere to it easily. Once the gesso is dry add your paint, I did a few coats using Cobalt Turquoise & Cobalt Teal so I would get varying color. Once this layer is dry, stamp randomly using Archival Ink. Once the ink is dry, using a finger add Metallic Lustre in Copper Kettle to add some highlights. I recommend painting both sides, so if your piece twists on your neck & shows the backside your jewelry has a finished look. Spray with a varnish or paint a layer of decoupage glue to protect the surface from scratching off.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />

To finish, simply wrap copper wire around the jewelry piece creating a loop at the top. Thread yarn through for the necklace chain. I used 3 different yarns, tying a knot at the ends to hold them together. To wear I will simply tie the yarn around my neck. You can add a lobster closure if you wish. I hope you enjoyed this tutorial. I encourage you to make some of these necklaces, the possibilities are endless!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hello fans of the Resin! <a href="http://karenbearse.blogspot.com/">Karen</a> here with some more fun. So I apparently am obsessed with resin paper. Today I have a simple, fun project making resin book page dividers. Very versatile, you can make them ahead of time to create a bit of a stash so when you need one they are at the ready. One of the challenges with resin is the time it takes for the resin to cure. This solves that problem. Let's go!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">First get your supplies ready so once the resin is mixed you are ready. I have noticed that often I have more resin made than paper ready, so you may want to have a nice stash of extra's in case that happens. Gather napkins, book paper, pretty card stock whatever you want to use. Napkins are one of my favorites as the patterns are great & they are perfect for this technique. I love the transparency which is achieved by peeling apart the napkin layers so all you are left with is one layer of pattern napkin. Hand Made papers are interesting as quite often they change color slightly. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Make sure to use gloves! Start with a piece of book paper or card stock to get used to the technique. Spread resin on back side of paper with the sponge, careful to fully cover paper. Cover front side and gently move to a piece of parchment paper to cure. Any bubbles should release naturally or you can pop them using a lighter carefully. Once you are used to the feel of covering the paper you are ready to move onto more delicate paper like napkins. I wanted mine to be translucent & thin enough that I could punch holes in the result so I did a medium coating. Let cure overnight. If you want a sturdier piece simply do a second coat of resin.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Here is my stash of resin paper. I have a large envelope & I keep all my resin pieces in it so if I want an embellishment or a piece to die cut I have it already on hand.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I took a few of my napkin pieces and made some book page dividers. The first was a USA napkin from July 4th. I added a thicker layer of resin so this piece has the weight of cardboard but the feel of plastic & it is translucent. I made a page for my art journal. I want to add in historic elements as I create to give my books a bit of a timeline. This can be events that impact me from the news or family events. The historic swim of Michael Phelps fills both, as my family gathered around throughout multiple Olympics to watch him shatter record after record. Truly one of the greatest athletes of all time. Taking my resin napkin I adhered my elements on top of it. The online photo of Phelps is amazing, one of my favorites & sadly I could not find the photographer to give credit as it came from a share site. I distressed the edges & adhered it to the cover. It was time for some embellishments, attached a tab & die cut colored circles and adhered them using glossy accents. After adding cork letters some resin was applied to the tab to give it that plastic strength. I love my new book page!!!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The page is transparent therefore the back must have the same embellishments. I added a Sports Illustrated cover photo in the same spot as my photo on the front. The rings still show through. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">My 2nd napkin page is from a super cool wine napkin. After adding the resin it was too beautiful to add much so I simply added a tag with the date & a tab. This divider will go in my project life book. I added a wine bottle label on the back.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Here is my USA napkin on top of a few other art journal pages so you can see the transparency of it. I love this technique!! I can make cool napkin dividers for my planner, notebooks, or anything I need a divider. Makes a great gift for my crafty friends. I hope you try this technique as the results are so much fun!!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Today we have designer Madeline Arendt creating with EasyCast™. </span></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Being fairly new to the product called FastCast™manufactured by Enviromental Technology Inc., and only seeing it demonstrated once, I was looking forward to my own experimentation with it. As the saying goes, "start small and build", that is what I will share with this post.</span></h3>

<b><span style="font-size: medium;">Instructions:</span></b></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">To make casts from FastCast™ use molds that are made fromSilicone, EasyMold Silicone Putty, Silicone Rubber or Silicone Paste. Other types of molds most likely require the use of a release spray to de-mold. ***The manufacturer suggests<b> NOT</b> using molds that are normally used for candy, soap or candles.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I will be honest here, I used a mold that was found in the aisle for candy making and I had great results. I usually like to experiment and see just how far I can go with products and directions and this one paid off. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I did not want pieces that were as thick as the mold would form. To determine how much FastCast™ I would need to mix, I added rice to the mold, filling only as high as I wanted the pieces to go. The rice was ten dumped into a glass measuring cup. </span><br />

<span lang="EN-AU" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Tip: Because we’re colouring the Jewelry Clay with several
drops of alcohol ink, it will be much softer than usual and will not hold its
shape for very long after the texture is applied. You will need to work quickly
when applying the beads before the clay slumps and the design disappears. Before
you begin, put the gloves on because the Jewelry Clay is sticky and when you
add the colorant, it will be quite messy.<span style="font-size: 9pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<strong>BASIC DOUGH ART RECIPE:</strong></div>
<ul>
<li>1 cup All-Purpose Flour</li>
<li>¼-½ cup Table Salt</li>
<li>¼-½ cup Warm Water</li>
</ul>
<div style="margin-bottom: 25px;">
<strong>NOTE:</strong> Keep a container with a flour and salt mixture of the same proportion as the dough near you. This can be sprinkled onto working surfaces to avoid sticky dough. Extra dough can be stored in the refrigerator for several days if properly wrapped in plastic or plastic bags. (If dough becomes sticky from storage, simply knead in some of the flour and salt mixture before shaping.) Combine flour and salt in a mixing bowl. Add ¼ cup warm water slowly, stirring as it is added. Add more water as needed, to make the dough resemble pie crust dough in looks and consistency. Mix all the dough you will need at one time.</div>

<strong>Instructions:</strong></div>
<ol style="background-color: white; color: #7a7a7a; font-family: "Lucida Grande", "Lucida Sans Unicode", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14.4px; line-height: 22.32px;">
<li>Mix dough. Set pieces of foil on your working surface. You will be forming the ornaments directly onto the foil. Form each piece by either rolling or cutting dough, or by molding by hand. If you mold the dough by hand, each piece will be smoother if you roll it into a very smooth ball between your palms first, and then form the shape. Be sure to wash your hands very thoroughly between different colors of dough. If using cookie cutters, roll the dough about 1/3" thick; thin ornaments may warp when cooling.<br /> </li>
<li>Glue on any adornments you desire or press them into the surface of the dough. There are many inexpensive ways to decorate ornaments. Metal. wood, sunflower seeds, nut shells, pods, rope or twine. and straw flowers work well and can be placed before baking. Textures can be made on the surface with a fork or by pressing dough through a garlic press. Toothpicks can also be used for texturing.<br /> </li>
<li>After completing the ornament, insert a hanger made from a paper clip. Push the hanger in until only ¼” is left exposed.<br /> </li>
<li>Place ornament and foil on a cookie sheet and bake at 300° F for approximately 45 minutes. Test for doneness by tapping: a hollow sound will indicate it is done. Check for any soft spots. If necessary, bake for 15 minutes more. Cool while still on the foil.<br /> </li>
<li>Paint the ornaments as desired. Fine features can also be drawn on with a draftsman’s pen. Glue on any additional ornaments before glazing.<br /> </li>
<li>Prepare a dust-free environment for your ornaments in the following manner. With scissors, drill a hole on either side of a clean, deep cardboard box, halfway between top and bottom. Attach wire to the outside and thread through the hole to the inside. After glazing with Envirotex Lite, your ornaments will be strung on the wire and the other end will be attached to the box. See Fig. 2.<br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

</li>
<li>Mix Envirotex Lite per package instructions. Mix approximately 2 oz’s. for each ornament. Mix one batch at a time.<br /> </li>
<li>Suspend the ornament from a length of wire. Pour approximately 2 oz’s. of Envirotex Lite over the object, pouring one object at a time. As you pour, direct the Envirotex Lite over detail areas with a disposable acid brush. (See Fig. 1. above) After the surface as been entirely coated, hang the ornament inside the box. Repeat this process until all ornaments have been glazed. Be sure to cover your work surface with several layers of newspaper.<br /> </li>
<li>As soon as all ornaments have been glazed, arranged them on the wire, spacing at least 3” between ornaments. Pick up the box with both hands and slowly turn it upside down. This will protect the objects as they dry. (See Fig. 2.) Envirotex Lite will cure most effectively if left for 72 hours with a temperature between 70° F and 80° F. (Optional 2nd coat may be desired.)<br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I found this silicone ice cube mold and thought it would be fun to use so I poured the resin into several cavities. Filling the cavities about half-way with resin, I let the resin sit overnight. The pieces easily popped out the next day.<br />

I used one of the whole resin lemons as a stamp, inking it with white ink and stamping it on black cardstock. It made a fun background for my card. And it is reusable as either a stamp or an embellishment for another project.<br />
