Update on charms
13 years ago
Ok I thought I would do an update on the charm prototypes...
Soo.. yesterday I found out that my resin was sealed up. we worked for a couple hours trying to get it unstuck and eventually just cut a hole in the can. The problem was that we had shaken it up and there were some bubbles. Welll I thought I could blow the bubbles out and so I went ahead with the project anyways. I made the charms and DID blow most of the bubbles out.
The ring turned out perfect I think. I may do a second coat of resin but it looks so good now I dont know yet I will decide tonight.
The zard has a few tiny bubbles but nothing major- I will do a second coat tonight on that one.
the rectangle has a slightly uneven surface from where a bubble popped. As it is it looks ok.. but I want it to look great so I am debating and will probably try a second layer to see if that helps.
The circle pendent has a couple tiny bubbles on the edge and if you look at it from the side it is a tiny bit uneven. I will probably try to do a second thin layer.
If I had brand new resin this would not have been a problem or if I had let it sit it might have been better. As of right now none of them look bad I just know I can get better quality. The reason I am doing these for free is because I knew there would be hiccups in my first few. I will start the second layer in a few hours and so these will be done *Tomorrow* night
