Accessible Luxury Has Become A Real Buzz Word As Of Late
One of the popular crafts that seem to keep people busy for hours is preserved flower jewelery. It might take a long time but the end results are well worth the effort. The main ingredient is liquid resin which is easily available from hobby and craft stores. It usually comes in two different bottles that need to be mixed together and the end result is a glutinous liquid. This is something those seeking accessible luxury can really take advantage of.
One such company that will make these items is Shpangle Jewelery and they are located in Hinckley in the United Kingdom. Fortunately they have a website where one can place ones order or browse through their catalog. They have being trading for seven years and specialize in preserving different items and making them into timeless jewelery.
Resin casting is used by hobbyists as well as spare time crafters. The resin is united with a curing liquid which is poured into a mold. When this curing agent touches the resin there is a chemical result which makes the mixture heat up and then very quickly becomes hard. Because of the mold this shape will be kept for years to come. It will need to be left for awhile in the mold before being removed and then it can be painted, sanded or even joined with other mold workings.
This method is also used by dental technicians to produce dental castings, toys as well as modern product mock-ups. Due to the fact that the making of a resin mold is very easy and not that expensive many people are now using this method in their own workshops at home. It is an amazing feeling to be able to produce a craft that one has produced themselves.
Next cover the work area with newspaper preferable in a very well ventilated area and always remember to use gloves. Remove the flower from the gel carefully, if done in the microwave be careful as it is hot. Gently shake all the granules off and spray with a light coat of resin spray. If this process is left out it could cause the flower to crumble once the resin is added. Leave to dry as per the instructions indicated on the can.
Another piece of jewelery that can be given to someone special is a stained glass picture, teardrop multi colored necklace and even brooches with butterflies or a personal memento inserted. They can be two toned or multi colored. Some people are even starting to preserve their favorite candy be it chocolate, jelly babies, liquorice or love hearts.
These resins come in a large variety of colors ranging from the normal orange yellow brown. It can also however be lemon yellow as well as white and black. The most sought after colors are the red, green and blue but are very difficult to find. People are willing to pay large amounts when these precious colors are found.
Preserved flower jewelery can either be made in sterling silver or resin and because it is similar to glass it will magnify the object making it appear 3D. This will ensure that the natural beauty will be seen and the colors will never fade. Encased in the resin one can also leave a name and date or if preferred a special message for that special someone.
