Can I Embed Objects Inside a Resin Dog Figurine?

Choosing the Right Resin and Embedding Materials

To ensure clarity and successful embedding, select a transparent epoxy such as Icrystal Clear Epoxy Resin. This type allows the beauty of embedded items like glitter, small charms, or dried flowers to shine through. Always avoid thick or porous objects that may trap air or release moisture—dry any flowers fully before embedding.

How to Embed Objects Step-by-Step

• Prepare your silicone mould—ideally one designed for animal shapes, such as the Animals & Plants Silicone Mould.
• Mix the clear epoxy resin thoroughly, following the provided instructions for proportions and safety.
• Pour a thin initial layer of resin and let it partially cure. Position your chosen objects in place, lightly pressing down if necessary.
• Slowly pour the remaining resin to encapsulate the objects, minimising air bubbles.
• Allow the figurine to cure fully before demoulding to achieve a crisp, bubble-free finish.

When Embedding Makes a Difference

Embedding objects is a fantastic way to capture memories, add sparkle, or introduce a personal touch—especially for gifts or commemorative figurines. It’s also popular for creating collections with nature-inspired inclusions or themed decor pieces.
