Create a dandelion decoration with epoxy resin
Made of synthetic resinYou can make beautiful decorations, jewelry and other things and it's really easy. So if you haven't worked with this material yet, you should. Below we will show you how you can make your own preserved dandelion decorations out of epoxy resin and in this way make them even more durable. You need:
- transparent synthetic resin
- Molds for casting
- Breath flower
Be sure to choose a shape that will accommodate the flower so that it can be covered with epoxy resin on all sides. Mix the resin according to package instructions. Now pour a thin layer into the mold and let it dry until it reaches a gel-like consistency. Depending on the room temperature and the product, this can take up to 2 hours. Then carefully place the flower upside down in the mold. You can preserve the dandelion in advance. But if you pour the resin slowly and towards the edge of the mold, even an untreated flower should not fall apart.
Let the flower rest in the gel for a few more hours and then carefully fill the mold. Now let the dandelion decoration harden for a few days. Then it is finished and you can give the pretty dandelion as a gift or display it, provide it with a hole and hang it up or whatever else you can think of.
