Hi all! Today’s tutorial is on how to make your own #resin molds using a hot glue gun.
I decided to try this out because I often have a small amount of leftover resin after projects that I don’t know what to do with and, instead of letting it cure and then throwing it out, I wanted to come up with a way to make the most of it. I thought about buying some small silicone molds but then wondered if I could make my own using materials I already had. I’m really happy with how this project turned out and saved myself a bit of money too!
Since uploading this video, I’ve been using a different brand of resin products from Rockstar Resins so there’s a slightly different deal available with them. They offer FREE SHIPPING as well as a 10% DISCOUNT on any order. I recommend using their 4 Star 1:1 Thin Coat Resin for this project. Use my code HANNAH at checkout through this link for the discount - rockstarresins.com/r?id=0b4e77
