Epoxy Resin Art
Epoxy resin art is becoming increasingly popular for a good reason. By mixing liquid resin with a hardener and pouring it into molds or onto surfaces you can create solid, glossy, and durable creative pieces. Once it hardens, the result is a smooth, glass-like finish.
Resin art can be tinted with vibrant colors, and you can embed objects like flowers, pebbles, candy, or even small trinkets and toys. That’s the best part of resin; the possibilities are endless—get ready to let your imagination run wild.
