Epoxy resin medallion with wire letter

Prepare your resin according to the dosages indicated on your packaging. You will need very little resin, but it's hard to measure and mix a small amount so plan on other more demanding projects at the same time. If this is the case, separate your resin into two containers and then add the colorant to the container that will be used for the mold and mix. Let the resin sit for 15 minutes to allow the bubbles to rise.

In a first test, I had added micas powders, but they don't show up much at the end, because most of the powder falls to the bottom, so it's not useful to put any.

Pour the resin in a thin layer at the bottom of the medallion, using a spatula to avoid putting too much. Let harden for 48 hours away from dust and sunlight.

Form your letter with jewelry clips. You can use our technical sheet linked in the introduction. You will find an alphabet to form letters with wire.

Place your letter or shape to stick in the medallion on the hardened black resin. Pour clear resin with a spatula over the whole without overflowing. Glaze resin or UV LED resin will make a nicer bulge. The result with the epoxy casting resin will be flatter. Replace your shape or letter with a toothpick and let the epoxy set naturally or with the UV LED lamp for the UV LED resin.

Thread the locket through the chain and attach the clasp to the chain with two rings.
