← Back to How do you pour epoxy resin over a flower?

Preserving flowers in resin is a timeless craft, allowing you to showcase delicate blooms within crystal clear designs. The choice of resin directly affects the beauty and longevity of your piece.
Choosing the Ideal Resin for Flower Casting
For flower casting, opt for a clear, low-viscosity epoxy resin. Its fluid consistency gently envelops petals and stems, minimising trapped bubbles and ensuring transparent results. A formulation such as the One-2-One Epoxy Resin offers reliable clarity and a straightforward 1:1 mixing ratio, simplifying the process for both beginners and experienced makers.
Practical Tips for Embedding Flowers in Resin
Begin with fully dried flowers, as any remaining moisture can cloud the resin over time. Pour in thin layers, allowing bubbles to rise and dissipate between applications for a flawless finish. Clear formulas such as Icrystal epoxy resin are suited for embedding due to their superior transparency and user-friendly handling. Consider arranging flowers between pours for attractive layering or a 3D effect.
When Clarity and Detail Matter Most
Epoxy resin is especially valuable when you want each petal, stem, or colour detail to remain sharply visible. Crafts like jewellery, decorative coasters, or keepsakes all benefit from a resin that enhances rather than obscures your chosen blooms.
