Directions on How To Make Donut Ring Jewelry!
Step 1: Mixing Resin
Mix one ounce of resin, according to the package directions.
![Donut ring jewelry silicone mold and one ounce of resin in a up](https://www.craftklatch.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/1-Donut-silicone-mold-and-one-ounce-of-resin-in-a-up-1024x924.jpg)
Step 2: Add a little dye
Mix in a little bit of brown, white, and yellow pigment dye. You want your donut necklace to have a realistic color.

![Add yellow pigment to resin mixture](https://www.craftklatch.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/Add-yellow-pigment-to-resin-mixture-962x1024.jpg)
Step 3: Pour it!
Pour the resin into the mold. Try to fill them to equal levels – not all the way full. You should get roughly 10 donut halves out of one ounce.

Step 4: No More Bubbles in the Donut Ring Jewelry
Pop bubbles with a lighter and allow to cure for at least 12 hours.

Step 5: Remove it!
Remove the donut halves from the mold, so you can start to put together the donut necklaces.

Step 6: Glue it!
Glue the halves together, wipe any that might ooze out, and allow to dry.

Step 7: Frosting the Donut Ring Jewelry
Use the glue to create a frosting on the donuts.

Step 8: Every Donut Needs Sprinkles!
Add bugle beads as sprinkles. Gently press them into the glue.

Step 9: A Little Glitter!
Sprinkle glitter onto the glue and allow it to dry.

Step 10: Alternative Frosting Idea
As an alternative, mix pigment powder into some glue and spread it on the donut like frosting. Press in bugle beads.

Step 11: Drill the Donut Ring Jewelry
When dry, drill a small hole into the donuts.

Step 12: Eyepin Time
Trim down and add an eye pin with glue.
