GLITTER! part 2

The remnants are removed from the mold.. Just an FYI if you don't already know.. plastic candy molds are not a good idea to use.. unless you don't mind using the mold once then go by another one about $1.99 each.. to get them out of the mold.. pop them in the freezer then play with it until they pop out.. My best move was wacking it on the counter.. thus, cracking the mold that is thin plastic to begin with LOL

Here are the results.. please note: some of them are from an ACTUAL resin mold!  Next.. sand, polish & drill for the pendants!

GLITTER!

hmmm what's inside?

Glitter, Resin & buttons.. that spells OH EM GEE pendants and earrings!  Took about 3 hours to make and will take about 24 hours to cure.. I cannot wait to take them out of the molds!  I have seen the underside and am VERY excited to see the end result if they look that good through the mold LOL..

mmmm Glitter!  Pictures were taken with  my cell.. better quality to follow once they're done curing!

Hope you all have a safe Labor Day celebration!

Wednesday

Hello!  Sorry for being gone yesterday.. came home from work sick :(  Slept for about 18 hours too!  Feeling little better.. went to work and caught up on work and did a few extra things:)

Came home and saw the foot locker Scotty sent from Afghanistan!!  OH MY GOODNESS the most gorgeous silk scarf was in there!! Purple beautifulness the size of a twin bed!  Can't wait for the cooler weather to come out so I can wear it :)
