2. Draw an outline of your design on paper or use a craft punch to punch out an outline shape. Hold the shape tightly on top of a piece of craft foam, pinching it with the fingers of your non-dominant hand, while you cut the shape out with sharp scissors. | ||||
3. Use acrylic paint or permanent marker to decorate the design, turning a triangle into a slice of watermelon or a circle into an exploding firework. Let dry fully. |  | |||
4. Prepare your resin epoxy according to package directions. Place your miniature artwork pieces onto a paint grid or silicone mat and pour just enough resin over the top to fully cover it. You might want to use your stir stick to smooth out the resin. Within a few minutes, the resin will naturally level itself out, curving down on the edges neatly. Leave to dry for several hours. | ||||
5. Peel your designs up off the mat and flip over. Mix up a smaller batch of resin and repeat the pouring process on the back. Let dry for several more hours or overnight. |  | |||
6. Once the resin is completely dry, trim off any wonky edges with sharp scissors. Clip your barrettes to a piece of paper and glue your artwork securely to the snap clips toward the base of the clip. Be sure to leave enough of the pointy side uncovered so it can grip your hair. | ||||
7. Once the glue is dry, wear your barrettes with style! | ||||
