Flowers add a timeless, natural elegance to resin jewellery. With the right preparation, you can preserve delicate blooms inside pendants for a personalised, lasting keepsake. Let’s explore how to safely and beautifully include flowers in your resin designs.
Preparing Flowers for Resin Pendants
To achieve clear, professional results, your flowers must be thoroughly dried before embedding in resin. Fresh flowers can release moisture and cause cloudiness or affect curing. You can dry flowers with a flower press, silica gel, or by placing them between absorbent papers and weighing them down for about a week. Once dried, handle them gently as they can become fragile.
Choosing the Right Resin and Tools
Selecting a suitable resin is essential for showcasing your flowers. Epoxy resin kits, such as the “Evershine Collection” – Artisan Jewellery Epoxy Resin Kit with 100+ Accessories, offer a straightforward 1:1 mixing ratio and high transparency, which is ideal for capturing vivid floral details. Alternatively, UV resin provides quick curing for smaller projects. Don’t forget to use open bezels or moulds designed for jewellery to create your pendant shape.
Tips for Beautiful Flower Pendants
- Arrange dried flowers gently in moulds or bezels to prevent breakage.
- Pour resin slowly in layers to minimise air bubbles and help position flowers perfectly.
- Use tweezers for accuracy and avoid submerging flowers too quickly.
When This Matters Most
Choosing to add real flowers to resin pendants is ideal for creating mementos, personalised gifts, or capturing seasonal blooms. The technique is also popular for wedding keepsakes and nature-themed jewellery ranges.
