DO YOU WANT TO LEARN THE BEST CRAFTS WITH RESIN?
It looks like if I'm going to want to tackle this resin trend, I'll have to invest in some new craft tools. It is definitely a specialized craft that will require some new things. This is what I am considering.
Resin - A nasty surprise! You need some resin to make a craft resin. There are different types for different applications, so if you start a project, make sure you get the right material!
Heat gun or butane torch - Helps remove bubbles. I also saw a tutorial that used a lamp placed directly above the project so that it would receive some heat from the bulb.
Dremel Multi Tool - I saw the Dremel Multi Tool used for a couple of different purposes. It was used to sand and polish the resin to get that cool shine. It was also used as a drill in some of the jewelry tutorials I found so that I could add the chain to the pendant.
Packing tape: I was surprised to see that packing tape was included in many of the smaller scale projects I came across. Helps keep the piece from moving and prevents resin from leaking from the bottom / sides of your project.
Straws - This is another weird thing to use, but many of the tutorials require the use of a straw to blow out any bubbles that might be in the project.
