Happy Accidents! Which one was your favorite?

I made these completely by accident. I just wanted to use my excess resin, so I was pouring it in a zigzag pattern into the mold and filling it up, and I AM IN LOVE!!! I never would have thought these colors would work, but I love how they look!!! Do you have any accidents you fell in love with?

Where would you drill a hole for a pendant finding on these?

I got a commission for a pink cat pendant and found this mold. I did a few tester pieces first. Drilling it in the ear makes it hang almost vertical. Drilling it in the forehead is too thick for even a pinch bail.

My only other thought is an eye bail, which I don’t have and the Micheal’s near me doesn’t carry either.

Free Craft kit for figurines

Hi all! I’m moving and wanted to see if I could ship this kit to anyone. It’s from a YouTuber NerdECrafter to make figurines and has all the supplies needed (described here: https://musekits.com/products/nerd-e-crafter-box)

I’d be very happy if this went to someone who would actually use it. I’d ask for someone to cover the cost of shipping (located in California). Thank you!

Are Jdiction and Resiners lamps the same?

I use UV resin to coat air dry clay and I'm on the market for a new lamp. So far I have been using generic nail lamps and I'm less than impressed, my pieces always remain tacky unless I put them in the sun, so I'm dreading the coming winter.

I have seen several people praising the Jdiction double sided lamp, but I'm in the EU and the import fees would probably be higher than the lamp itself. However, the Resiners double sided lamp looks virtually identical. Has anyone got experience with both? Is it the same lamp? Or would you recommend a different lamp available in the EU?

Frames for resin art

Hi everyone,

I'm having the hardest time finding the right size frames for my resin water pieces. I would like a floating frame, but my pieces are 4"x4". I'm in the US. Seeing if anyone knows a store or company that sells/makes small floating frames

Thanks

Art picture for reference (in frame I don't like)

Looking for help

Hi Im new here just looking for help I bought this several years ago (a little pokemon terrarium) I packed it away after a year or 2 and never unpacked due to limited space where I moved but it has been kept in a fairly cool basement since being packed. Finally unpacked it a couple years later and theres this weird substance leaking, I did have other figures in here but I can only assume it came from this which is covered and probably had resin in it but I would've thought it was cured and being kept in a cool place it should've been fine? Does this seem like uncured resin and how can I safely dispose of it or if it isnt can anyone point me in the right direction please and thank you! (sorry for bad photos trying not to touch)
