Unicorn Decor Coasters Directions
Step 1
I gathered my molds. I used three different molds for this project.
Step 2
I used pigment powder and brushed it on the inside of the horn mold. It can be a solid color, or a mix of colors.
Step 3
I did the same with the flower mold.
Step 4
I used a fast curing resin for this project that cures white, but you can use a clear resin and add white pigment. By dusting the inside of the molds, with the pigment powder, the pigment powder becomes one with the resin.
TIP: For the horns, I had them cure on a slight angle. That way, they would have a little angle when cured.
Step 5
Once cured, I removed all the parts from the molds.
Look how pretty the horn turned out!
Step 6
I glued the horns to the coaster, using fast drying glue.
Step 7
I cut a face out of vinyl with my cutting machine, but you can also paint it on.
Step 8
I put on the faces.
So far, so good!
Step 9
I mixed two ounces of clear resin and poured it on the coasters.This gives additional strength to the horn. I used my stir stick, to make sure it went to the edges and popped the bubbles with the lighter. Then, they sat to cure for a minimum of 12 hours.
Step 10
I cut ears out of craft foam and glued them on with hot glue. The inner, I painted pink and added glue and glitter to the inner ears and where they attach, to make them stronger.
Step 11
I then added additional glue and put on a piece of the feather boa and trimmed the excess.
Step 12
I glued on the flowers.
Step 13
That’s it! Now you have ADORABLE unicorn decor that can be used as coasters or as ring holders.
