Pressed Flower Resin Jewellery
With this unique and engaging tutorial, you can transform flowers into beautiful resin jewellery.
Materials
Dried flowers and leaves
Epoxy resin
Necklace chain
Jump ring
Sticks
Pilers
Pendant molds
Tweezers
Mix the resin and hardener according to the instructions, using the sticks to mix thoroughly. Take the necessary safety precautions before working with materials like resin.
Take the pendant mould and fill it halfway with a resin mix. Let it sit for some time. After some time, check for bubbles. If you see any, gently blow on them or remove them with a heat gun on a low setting. This will ensure a smooth, bubble-free finish.
Using the tweezers, carefully place the petals and dead flowers into the resin mix.
Pour the remaining resin mix into the pendant mould until it fills completely.
Wait 24 hours until your resin pendant dries completely. This is a crucial step, as the resin needs time to harden and set. During this time, it’s important to avoid touching or moving the pendant, as it can cause the resin to shift and ruin the design. Once it’s dry, add jump rings and chains to the pendant.
A beautiful piece of DIY floral jewellery is ready. When you style your Western outfit with it, you will become the centre of attention and inspire others with your creativity and love for nature.
Seed Jewellery
Embrace an eco-friendly way to adorn yourself with natural jewellery made from seeds. These unique fashion statements, crafted with both tiny and big seeds, are not just accessories but a positive connection to nature, reflecting your responsible choices.
Paddy Jewellery Earrings
Paddy seeds
Red or black wooden beads
Craft glue
Thick cotton cloth
Scissors
Jump rings
Earring hooks
Circularly cut the thick cotton cloth. Make four to six circles with appropriate measurements.
Stick two circles together and make two bases for the earrings. Spread the craft glue on the bases and arrange the paddy seeds one by one in a circular way, ensuring they’re evenly spread without leaving any gaps. This will create a beautiful, symmetrical pattern.
Fill the complete circle with the seeds and stick the red wooden bead in the centre.
Once you get the desired flower pattern, keep them for drying completely.
Add the jump rings and hooks, and you made a set of beautiful hanging earrings!
