DIRECTIONS:

** It is important when working with resin to work in a well-ventilated area, keep gloves on, and wear a mask with extended use!**
  1. Add lights to mold - they are pliable, so bend and shape them as desired and try to get the lights evenly spaced throughout the mold.
  2. Mix Color Pour Resin & Hardener according to instructions. Pour a very small amount into one cup and split the rest between two more cups. Mix green glitter with the smallest amount of resin and add green transparent dye & white transparent dye to the other two cups to create two shades of green.
  3. Place resin mold onto a craft mat and pour green glitter resin into the tip of the tree. Make sure there isn't a bubble in the tip. Pour darker shade followed by lighter shade of green resin to fill the mold.
  4. Let resin cure for 24 hours.

JOANN HACKS:

  • Make a forest of trees in varying shades for your mantle or holiday tablescape.
  • Make the tree look snow-capped by adding white in first.
