Heart Pendant Directions
Step 1: The Bezel
Decide on your bezel and the shape. I happened to get an amazing deal on the heart bezel but you can go with any shape or size.
Step 2: Resin and Glitter
Nothing pairs better than resin and some sparkly glitter! Mix a small amount of resin. I used about half an ounce and then added some chunky red glitter.
Step 3: Here Comes the Glitter
Slowly, pour the resin glitter mixture into the bezel. You want to cover the bottom of the heart pendant but you want to make sure you leave enough room for the charms.
Step 4:
Use your lighter to pop any bubbles.
Let the resin sit for an hour or two. You want the resin to be nice and sticky and thick enough so your charms won’t sink to the bottom.
Step 5: Add Charms to the Heart Pendant
Carefully place your charms on the glittery resin.
Step 6: A Little Clarity
Pour a thin layer of clear resin over it. It won’t take much but you want to make sure everything is embedded.
Step 7: Pop!
Take your lighter and pop the bubbles and let it cure.
That’s it! It can be a necklace or a keychain! Or it can be whatever you want it to be!
