Here is a video tutorial, so you can see exactly how I did it:



Directions:

1.  I mixed one ounce of resin and added some aztec gold pigment powder.

2.  I mixed it well and poured it into the mold.

3.  I popped the bubbles with my lighter.  I let it cure a minimum of 12 hours.



4.  Once cured, I removed it from the mold.  I used a pewter paint to draw lines across in both directions.

5.  I added a dot in all of the holes.



6.  Once the paint dried, I added one more ounce of resin.  I did it slowly, so it would not overflow the sides. 



7.  I popped the bubbles with my lighter and let it cure a minimum of 12 hours.



8.  Once cured, I traced around the coaster.



9.  I added the top to the pineapple.



10.  I cut out the pineapple, to use as a template.



11.  I traced it onto the craft foam.



12.  I cut it out.



13. I used different paints to paint the top and around the edges.



14.  I added glue that dries clear and I moved it around.



15.  I placed the resin coaster onto the craft foam.




That’s it!!!
