Eco-Epoxy Resin Jewelry Projects!

Epoxy resin is a type of glue used for many different purposes. It's also a magical modern jewelry making material. Sustainable jewelry enthusiasts enjoy using eco-epoxy resin in designs because it's an inexpensive, easy way to add dimension and color to cold connection jewelry pieces.






Read the instructions on the eco-epoxy resin manufacturer's package. Measure and mix the eco-epoxy resin exactly. Failure to mix exactly will result in problems with the resin curing and hardening.










 Use eco-resin to attach embellishments or jewelry findings to your pieces.



Use Eco-Resin To Fill Bezel








Arrange beads, small treasures, fabric, paper or other small ephemera to create a collage inside the bezel.  Pour the epoxy resin into the bezel until it covers all the items in your collage and domes over the top of the bezel. Allow the epoxy resin to cure for approximately 48 hours.



Remember Mix the eco-epoxy resin according to the manufacturer's instructions.
