How I Craft Your Custom Resin Keepsakes
Curious about how your memories turn into art? Here is a peek into my studio, where I carefully transform flowers and special moments into custom resin pieces.
This is a little look into my world. From carefully placing glitter to showing off finished pieces, this video captures the love and attention I put into every single handmade item.
This video shows the story of a customer's special flowers. I transformed them into a set of beautiful purple and silver coasters and a matching pendant, creating a lasting keepsake from a cherished memory.
The final reveal is always so exciting. Watch as I demold these custom agate-style coasters, showing how the preserved petals and gold flakes look once the crystal-clear resin has set.
About Behind the Scenes: Handmade with Love
The magic really happens in the prep work. Your flowers spend 3 to 7 days in silica sand to lose moisture without losing their shape or colour. Only after they are perfectly dehydrated do I begin the meticulous pouring process, layering the resin to ensure every petal is captured clearly, just the way you remember it.
Behind Every Piece, A Memory
I believe that objects like your wedding varmala or a special bouquet from a loved one deserve to last. When you send your flowers to me, I treat them with the same care I would my own memories. Here is how I turn those delicate blooms into pieces you can keep forever.
The Preservation Process
- Dehydration: This is the most crucial step. I manually deconstruct your bouquets and place them in silica sand. This draws out the moisture slowly, keeping the colours vibrant and the petals from turning brown.
- The Pour: Once dry, I arrange the flowers in the mould. I use high-gloss, non-yellowing epoxy resin for my pours. This ensures that when the piece sets, it has that crystal-clear finish that makes your flowers look like they are floating.
- Adding Details: Whether you want to add names, dates, or a touch of gold leaf, this happens in the final layers. I make sure the text is embedded securely so it stays crisp.
Why Handcrafted Matters
Because I handle every step, I can offer the customisation you won't find in mass-produced items. You can choose the shape, the background colour, or even how much glitter or gold foil we add to make it truly yours.
Whether you are looking for a statement 10-inch wedding block to display on your wall, a set of agate-style coasters for your coffee table, or just a small keychain, the goal is always the same: to create a piece that brings a smile to your face every time you look at it. If you have a specific vision for your keepsake, let's talk about how we can make it happen.
