Resin Ring Holder

Create a beautiful resin ring holder using a pyramid mold, EasyCast Clear Casting Epoxy, and colorful alcohol inks.

Hey Resin Crafters! Amber Oliver here with another great resin craft. Some of my favorite resin projects have been resin jewelry, like my  resin dipped earrings and my statement earrings. For this project, I started with a simple silicone mold in the shape of a pyramid. I knew the narrow point on the top would make the perfect place to slide your ring. This beautiful resin ring holder uses EasyCast Clear Casting Epoxy and alcohol ink to create a unique design.

SUPPLIES NEEDED FOR RESIN RING HOLDER:

Step 1: First, prepare the EasyCast Clear Casting Epoxy.  This is a multi-step process so don’t start mixing until you are ready to do the whole process from beginning to end!Start by mixing EQUAL parts of the Hardener and the Resin.

Stir for two minutes (be sure to scrape the bottoms and sides) then pour from the first cup into a second and mix with a new stir stick for another minute.

Step 2: Once your mixture is ready, pour gently into your mold. Be careful not to knock it over!
Step 3: Carefully add a few drops of alcohol ink onto the surface. (TIP: use the ink very sparingly or your creation will be VERY dark!)
Step 4: With a toothpick, gently drag through the surface to mix the ink.
Step 5: After about 20 minutes you’ll see bubbles appear on the surface of the resin – you can use a butane torch to pop these or simply breathe on it like I did! It’s the CO2 in your breath that releases the bubbles – not the heat!
Step 6: After you’ve allowed enough time for the resin to cure, you can remove from the mold!
I hope this project inspires you to create your own resin ring holder! Try mixing alcohol inks or add Castin’Craft Opaque Pigments in the color of your choice to create a pretty solid colored one!
