Why Should I Pour Resin in Layers?

When embedding delicate flowers into a resin cube, pouring the resin in layers brings far more reliable and visually pleasing results. This careful method helps you achieve the clarity and finish that give your piece lasting appeal.

Reduces Bubbles and Imperfections

Bubbles can easily become trapped around your flowers and within the resin if you pour it all at once. Layering works by allowing each stage to settle, so any bubbles have a chance to rise and escape before the next pour. This is essential for cubes where clarity is crucial, especially when using products like EpoxyTable 5-Five or “Trasparente” resin for thinner layers.

Stabilises and Protects Your Flower Embeds

Pouring resin in stages helps keep dried flowers securely in place, preventing them from floating or shifting off-centre. By allowing the bottom layer to partially cure before adding the next, you can ‘set’ the blooms exactly where you want them, leading to sharper definition and an even distribution throughout the cube.

Practical Tips for Layer Pouring

  • Let each resin layer partially cure until just firm before adding flowers or the next pour.
  • Keep your workspace level and free from draughts to reduce dust and uneven curing.
  • Choose high-quality supplies such as Natural Dried Flowers and clear resin for best results.
