- Coaster mold
- Orange glitter
- St. Patrick’s Day Stickers (I happened to find these at the dollar store)
- Resin
- When deciding on which resin to use for your coasters, you need to keep in mind whether you want it just for cold cups or for hot ones as well.
- If only for cold drinks, you can be flexible and use whatever brand you like:
- If you want it to work for both hot and cold drinks, you need to look for a heat-resistant resin, like these:
- FX Poxy ~ According to the manufacturer, this one is heat resistant to 500° F.
- Stone Coat
Here is the Video Tutorial
Directions
1. Prepare your resin, according to the package directions.
2. Mix orange glitter into the resin and pour into the coaster mold. Let it spread out and if it doesn’t go to all the edges, you can help it with your stir stick.
3. Run a lighter over it, if there are bubbles.
4. Allow to cure…12 hours is fine, but you can do it a little less if necessary.
5. Apply stickers.
6. Prepare more resin and pour over the stickers until all covered.
7. Allow to cure for 12 hours before unmolding.
That’s it!!
