We're making something from scratch today, literally from scratch. We will be using a clear acrylic block to make a mold. Using our mold, we will preserve flowers that we dried to create our block. Finally, we will add hardware to our block to make it a functional jewelry organizer. In this video, I will go over how to make a mold, how to dry flowers in silica gel, and to preserve the flowers in epoxy resin, how to make it a functional piece. There's a lot of information in this video and I hope you enjoy! If you have any questions or feedback, let me know in the comments!
