O & E Doming Resin Tutorial

I love me my resin...it's as simple as that...there are just so many ways to use it...

You can fill a bezel with it,make resin paper,cast with it,you can even add color to it.One fun thing to do with it is make one of a kind resin cabochons. I call them Cabochons simply because they are flat on one side and can be mounted on to a piece a metal or in my case,can be wire wrapped to make a free hanging pendant.


 

Is this fun or what!
I bet your already thinking up what little bit's you can "freeze" in time...ooooweee...the possibilities are endless!!
