Directions:
1. I used two molds for these coasters. The first is the regular coaster mold I use. The other is a donut mold, that I flipped over and used the inside cavity.

2. I mixed my resin. Figure approximately two and a half ounces. I used a resin that cures white and added pigment powder to give it a subtle color. You can use clear curing resin and tint the color as well.

3. I poured resin into two of the larger coaster cavities and some into two of the smaller cavities.

4. Once the resin cured, I removed the pieces from the molds.

5. I used a combination of a clear drying glue and hot glue to attach the smaller pieces to the larger pieces. The hot glue keeps everything in place, while the other glue dries.
