Ingredients
  

  • EnvirotexLite Jewelry Resin
  • Acrylic paints in Pink, Turquoise, Grey
  • Molds EasyCast Resin Jewelry Molds
  • Measuring cups wooden stir sticks, gloves and paper towels
  • Toothpicks
  • Kitchen torch or straw
  • Cup hook
  • Double sided Velcro or Command strips

Instructions
 

  • Begin by mixing together equal parts of Resin and Hardener in a small measuring cup. Stir completely for two minutes.
  • Transfer the mixture into a second measuring cup and continue stirring for an additional minute.
  • Divide the mixed resin into three separate cups.
  • Into separate cups drop a few drops of white, pink and grey paint. Stir each completely with separate stir sticks.
  • Pour each of the tinted resins into separate mold compartments, about ¾ full.
  • In the white compartment, drop in some gray resin. Use the stir stick to swirl the the gray and white resin together.
  • In the pink compartment, add some gray resin and swirl around.
  • In the gray compartment, add some pink resin and swirl around.
  • Continue layering in the different colors until each compartment is full.
  • Continue until the mold is filled. Consider sprinkling bit of clear glitter in a couple areas of the mold.
  • After about 15 to 20 minutes blow off any air bubbles that have risen to the top of the mold.
  • Make sure that the molds are on a level surface and covered to prevent any dust from settling in. Let the resin cure overnight.

Adding the Hooks to the Resin

  • Remove the faux marble pieces from the mold.
  • Cut a piece of 6″ wide balsa wood to 12″ long. Arrange the faux marble resin pieces until you are happy with how they look.
  • Drill holes through the resin and into the balsa wood. Make sure the drill bit is just large enough for the cup hook screw to go into.
  • Screw the cup hook into the resin piece.
  • Place some E6000 glue on the the back of the resin piece and then screw into the wood.
  • Set aside and let dry.

Mounting the Hooks to the Wall

  • Attach velcro-style mounting strips to the back of the hanger.
