How to Make Resin Mirror Charms

These are super adorable resin charms with mirrors on the back! It was an idea that randomly came to me while I was working on other resin pieces. I did a few experiments and they worked very well, so I wanted to share the method with everyone. If you know how to work with resin, this is very simple to make!


Here is a video tutorial on it! Enjoy!

Nightmare Before Christmas Tile

I love Nightmare Before Christmas! I've always loved it, ever since it first came out of the movie theater. I remember at the time, no one cared for the movie, but not until Disney bought it, the popularity skyrocketed!

I made a resin tile inspired by the movie and also this tile is part of my contest entry I'm planning to enter. I hand painted the image in layers to give a 3d effect. It's really hard to see in the photo, but it looks pretty cool in person! This piece was very difficult to make too since I had to redo the coating several times! I'm happy i was able to finish it because I had moments of wanting to give up! I hope you guys like it!

Finished Fawn!

Here is my finished crochet Fawn by Pepika! I made it for my little sister because today is her birthday! Yay! She is 21 and all grown up!



Anyway, I crammed last night finish making this and I finished around 1 am in the morning. I spent countless hours and I struggled a lot. I usually struggle with a new pattern, so there were times where I almost wanted to give up! But overall I think it turned out pretty good and most importantly, my baby sister LOVED it! So mission accomplished!!

Resin Charms My Friend Made!

I purchased these super adorable resin charms from a friend I met on a craft facebook page. Mind you, I rarely buy resin pieces from people because I have the mentality of "why buy it when I can make it myself?" lol! Plus, the ones I have bought in the past were not made very well, so I just stopped buying them and started making them myself! But these are different! They are well made by a very talented girl named Angel. Here is the link to her shop! http://angelsresin.storenvy.com/ Definitely worth checking it out because she makes some awesome jewelry!



I just wanted to share these to the whole world because I love them so much! My favorite is definitely Stitch (genetic experiment 626)!
I also want to say I'm glad I met so many awesome people that I share the same passion with through facebook, blogspot, and youtube. Yay for internet!

My Next Crochet Project

My little sister loves anything fawn, deer, and bambi, so I decided to make this for her; the cutest little fawn plushie ever!

Pepka's photo
I bought the pattern on etsy from Pepkia. This seller has a lot of cute patterns so everyone should definitely go check it out! Click HERE to her shop.

So far, I've made the head...and it took me a long time because I had to make it twice. The first one I made, my dog stole it and chewed it up!! Here's the culprit! I must admit, I couldn't get mad at him; he's too cute.

with his favorite anteater toy

Any who, I can't wait to show you guys the finished piece!

Have a great week everyone!
