Making resin photo charms is pretty easy. I just used printed cardstock (images around 1" square) chipboard, clear packing tape, glue stick and clear epoxy resin. Paint pen to color the edges is optional.
I go over an issue that can occur with Envirotex Lite epoxy in the beginning. Don't leave it in the light (especially sunlight) and keep it cool. The hardener turns amber and the properties of the hardener appear to change, making the resin harder to work with and much longer to cure. Annoying!
