How to make a necklace or pendant with a resin finish

Note: If your image covers the entire pendant, including the loop for the chain, you need to punch out the image from the hole before you pour on the resin.

Step 4. Pour over the resin
It is best to create a stand to secure the pendant onto while you pour on the resin. This should allow the resin to flow smoothly off the sides. We found an old lamp base worked perfectly with a large piece of tacky putty on top to secure the pendant. Mix the resin and pour over the pendant starting from the middle area of the pendant.

Step 5. Removing bubbles and sealing
Using a straw, blow the resin from the middle of the pendant out to the edges, letting it flow over the edges. This will remove bubbles and seal in the artwork. Delicately remove excess resin which has flowed underneath with your glove or a paintbrush. Allow time to dry - about 24hrs.

Step 6. Finishing touch
Once the pendant is dry, loop a chain or necklace string through the hole to complete!
