Instructions

This necklace measures 17.5 inches. To modify the length, simply choose another finished chain.

Begin by cutting a 17mm circle from the image on the collage sheet you want to place into the bezel.
Using the Nunn Design Glue, paint a thin layer on to the back of the image, making sure get all edges and carefully place it into the bezel. Allow to dry for 24 hours before moving on.
Please watch our video: How to Use the Swellegant Sealant to Prepare an Image for Resin. From what you learned in the video, use a paint brush to paint a thin layer of the Swellegant sealant on to the image. Allow to dry about an hour. Repeat this process at least twice more and allow to dry.
Mix your resin - 1 TSP of A and 1 TSP of B. Use the popsicle stick to mix the resin. Allow to sit for a few minutes.
Then use a popsicle stick to add the resin to the bezel. Allow to cure about 24 hours. Using a lighter to get rid of any air bubbles about 30 minutes after you pour.
Once your piece has fully cured, slip it on to the ball chain by opening the clasp peanut of the chain.
