Someone has to buy these blooming flower trays and coasters so I can justify continuing to make them, because I’m a little addicted. The way the alcohol ink and pigment paste spread in the resin is just magical. Kavi likes this one better than the Christmas red one, but I honestly love them both equally. […]

Tiered fruit tray! Food-safe. I’m really pleased with how this came out, but I also want to try doing a version that’s clear, with twice as much fruit layered in, and maybe some flowers too. This is fun and festive for the holidays, though. I hope someone loves it! Should be at the shop by

More pretties going to the shop soon; Eliana is going to swing by, collect things and run them down in the next day or two. $5 each! I think these would be a nice set, but could also be bought individually if you just need one for your morning coffee…

Sneak peek of last night’s resin pour — new molds! Charcuterie board (food-safe, but not meant for heavy cutting) and handled tray. Not sure if these will cure in time for me to get them to the shop before I leave town tomorrow morning, alas! We’ll see; Kevin brought me tea and cold pizza in

Can I take five minutes to kvetch? Y’all know it was a bit of a mad run-up to end of semester with the new shop and all the weekend arts fairs, right? So, normally, I would be pretty done with all that now and ready to actually rest and relax for two weeks (once I

Another sneak peek — resin tray and coasters. I’ll be adding a gold backing to this one, once it’s set. It’s taking longer to cure than the fruit tiered server, maybe because of the alcohol inks? I’m also still trying to figure out the best way to add the gold backing; I’ve tried a couple

Sneak peak of tiered stand in-progress. Fruit! If it comes out well, I’ll be dropping it off at the shop tomorrow. Should be cured hard by tonight, so I can hopefully assemble tomorrow morning.

Starting a new resin pour. At least 8 hrs before I can un-mold, which is v. Frustrating! I guess that’s why I did it before bed. Sleep, Mary Anne, and dream of beautiful flowers…
