Description: | |
For this swap, we will send 3 resin pieces to 1 partner. The size of the resin pieces should be about the size of a quarter or larger. If smaller than a quarter 3 pieces = 1 piece. So, if you have a tiny mold 9 pieces would be needed to = 3 required pieces. It is not required to have eye pins or be made into jewelry as some people prefer different types of jewelry or projects. These can be made in a bezel settings like the swap pic or be sent as just the resin pieces straight from a mold. If a person wanted to send larger resin pieces or add jewelry findings as extras that is entirely up to them but I would assume that they would be worth a heart :) There are a wide variety of tutorials out there for jewelry resin if you are new to the scene. Also, I have a resin blog http://resinjewelry.blogspot.com/ that has some ideas and tutorials. I also suggest making these atleast 3 days before you plan to send as resin hardening time can vary based on temperature, humidity, and size of mold cavity. The smaller the mold the longer it takes to harden. I'm requiring a rating of 4.7 or higher and atleast 5 rated swaps. I am making this US only due to the increased shipping cost but anyone is welcome to create an international version.
