Hey guys, so I've had a few requests for a tutorial on how I did my crackle items, so here's a tutorial!
Items You'll Need:
•Crackle Nail Polish (Any Color)
•Assorted Nail polish colors
•Clear Nail polish (clear coat, top coat, ect.)
•Mold (Plastic or silicone)
•Well ventilated area
Remember you're working backwards, so you'll always need to paint with the clear coat first, then the crackle, and then your color of choosing. The clear coat is REQUIRED in order for the crackle to actually crackle. If you try to paint with the crackle first, it WON'T crackle! This is because crackle glaze needs to be painted over nail polish in order to activate.
Once the polish has fully dried, then you can pour whatever color resin, but I recommend black.
Hope this helps! Happy Crafting!
