Choosing the Right Resin for Your Flower Embedding Project

The type of resin you choose depends on the scale of your project and the thickness of pours required. For large centrepieces or blocks, go with deep pour options like “Epoxytable 10-Ten” or “EpoxyTable 5-Five”. For finer, detailed creations such as jewellery or coasters, look to “Trasparente” or “Icrystal” for their clarity and easy application. Always ensure resin use aligns with suggested thickness guidelines, as over-pouring can cause overheating or cloudiness.

Tips for Stunning Flower Embedding Results

Properly drying flowers before embedding prevents discolouration and cloudiness. Work in thin layers for best clarity—especially with delicate blooms—and always pour within the recommended resin thickness. If you’re aiming for large blocks, use deep casting resins to avoid overheating and ensure even setting throughout the piece.
