In this fun resin art project, I created two colourful skulls using clear plastic gems—and the results were nothing like I expected! The clear gems caused a stunning distortion effect, warping the objects placed inside the resin in the most amazing way. I’ll walk you through the entire process, share my favourite tips and tricks, and explain why choosing the right resin is absolutely critical for a result like this. What You’ll Learn: - How to embed gems in resin without trapping bubbles - The best type of resin to use for clear distortion effects - How light and depth create that warped look - Why resin choice *really* matters in this kind of project - How to stop your glitter from sinking in the resin #ResinArt #DIYResin #ResinSkull #CraftingTips #ClearResin If you enjoy unique resin techniques and creative experiments, be sure to like, subscribe, and hit the bell so you don’t miss future projects! 👇 Leave a comment with your own resin ideas or questions—I love hearing from you!
