I am obsessed amongst sea resin pours. Pouring out glossy colored resin to mimic the depth in addition to waves of the sea is in addition to thence satisfying! This slice of sea resin fine art is perfect twelvemonth round, but specially smashing for the patriotic holiday! Unfortunately, the video I created of this procedure was accidentally deleted in addition to thence I can't percentage the entire video 😭 Next time!

When I finished this I pictured it proverb "from Sea to shining Sea"...so I did a petty hand-lettering on my ipad. Maybe I'll brand something tangible at roughly point.

Stir each color inwards gently in addition to thence it does non add together a lot to a greater extent than bubbles inwards the mix.

Last affair to produce is lookout adult man for air bubbles ascent to the surface in addition to gently blow on them amongst a straw. Then embrace amongst a giant box in addition to allow it sit down in addition to cure overnight, close 12 hours.

It's of import to cover, specially inwards the Summer time, in addition to thence that flies or other flyers don't country on it. I produce this correct inwards my principal room of the household in addition to convey non been bothered past times the smell. It's great, if y'all haven't worked amongst resin before, it's fun!

Next solar daytime role the pigment that y'all used for the pour in addition to pigment the edges of the board to match. There are roughly drips on the backside, but it's non a large deal. They sand downwards easily.
