DIY Resin Crafts and Projects! All of these projects make great gifts, so why not also gift yourself one of these cute items?
Using resin in crafts, home decor, countertops, and fashion accessories has been trending on the internet and social media over the last few years! While resin art has been around for a long time, it was expensive and there weren’t many tutorials easily accessible for the beginner. You can now find smaller quantities of resin
for sale at craft stores or affiliate linked here from Amazon, perfect for small crafts and accessories. Larger quantities of resin
are available at your home improvement store for larger scale projects.
The list I’m sharing with you today is full of fun DIY Resin Crafts and Projects I think you will love! This list is loosely organized by the type of craft each blogger has created. Keep in mind that you can always change these projects to fit your own personal design. If you love the particular project, but do not prefer the colors, change it up to suit your own tastes. Be sure to click the blue/gray links in the titles to see the original source with more pictures and full tutorials. Feel free to pin the collage for easy referencing!
