Directions
Step 1: Create the Base Layer
We started by pouring a thin layer of UV resin into the mold and curing it under the UV light. This gave thependant a strong, clear foundation and it an easy way to kick off the crafting fun!
Step 2: Add Color and Spooky Details
Next came the creativity. He dabbed on pigment powders in orange, purple, and black to give it that Halloween vibe.
After sealing the powders with more UV resin and curing, he added skull nail stickers for a spooky twist.
Another layer of resin locked it all in.
Step 3: Turn It Into a Pendant
Once it was fully cured, we added a jump ring. Just like that, the UV resin skull transformed into a fun charm that could be worn as a necklace or used as a keychain.
This simple project was a perfect way to spend time together and show him how much crafting fun resin can be.
