Resin

New obsession - resin. I love it. You just mix the resin and the hardener and pour into a mould or over a bezel and 24 hours later - presto it is hard! Then you let it cure for another 48 hours and you have a glass-hard object. So, made some stuff.

Penboy and I made Titanic and iceberg. So, you get the ice cube tray Gin & Titonic and you use it for resin! Mind you, it is no longer food safe after, so you might want to cut it in two and keep a half for ice and the other half for resin.


I also made some pretty bezels. There you have to be careful not to overpour. Here is one made using Japanese paper as a base picture.



I love it!

In other Titanic news, we got a tea diffuser called - Teatanic! You put the tea inside and let it sink in your cup. For myself I got some yummy Irish Breakfast tea.
