HOW TO MAKE A GLOW IN THE DARK RESIN CASTING

Welcome to the world of glow in the dark resin art! If you’ve ever wanted to make your own glow in the dark resin jewelry, figurines, furniture, and more, this quick guide will give you step-by-step instructions on how to do just that. You will need the following supplies for this project: 

  • Resin Art Supplies Resin
  • Glow In The Dark Powder
  • Paper mixing cups
  • Plastic measuring cups
  • Wooden craft sticks or toothpicks for mixing
  • A mold of your choice
  • Gloves 
  • Assorted waterproof sandpaper
  • Something waterproof to protect your table from spills (plastic sheeting, trash bag or wax paper)

Once you’ve gathered all the supplies, you are ready to begin! First, pour the resin into the plastic measuring cup and mix it according to the instructions on the package. While you’re waiting for the resin to set, prepare the mold you are using for the project by making sure it is clean and dry.

When the resin is ready, add a few drops of glow in the dark powder, stirring with a wooden craft stick or toothpick. Next, carefully pour the mixture into the mold. Once it has settled in the mold, gently tap the mould on your surface to avoid air bubbles.

Once the resin has hardened, carefully remove it from the mold. You may need to use a sharp tool to separate the edges of the resin from the mold. Using waterproof sandpaper, sand away any rough edges and imperfections.

Congratulations! You have now completed your own custom glow in the dark resin project. Enjoy your creation and feel free to experiment with different colours, shapes, and molds. Have fun!
