  1. To see an example of a similar project, please watch our video: How to Make a Pair of Resin Earrings featuring Nunn Design Earring Bezels. In this video you will learn how to mix and colorize your resin to make a pair of earrings.
  2. From what you learned in the video, mix your resin and separate the amount you want to color into a cup; about 2 tsp. Slowly add a drop of white and mix, then add a drop of transparent blue. If you want a lighter color, you can add a little bit more of the white. Add a small bit of mica power at a time until you have achieved the desired effect.
  3. Once you have achieved your desired color use a popsicle stick add the resin to the bezels. Allow to cure about 24 hours. Using a lighter to get rid of any air bubbles about 30 minutes after you pour.
  4. Finally, open one jump ring and attach it to the earring post and to the finished pendant.
