How to Preserve Flowers in Resin: Step-by-Step Guide
1. Dry the Flowers First
Use silica gel, air-drying, or pressing to fully dehydrate your flowers. Moisture inside the petals can cause discoloration or resin reactions.
2. Choose Your Mold or Frame
Select silicone molds for coasters, pyramids, or blocks—or build a framed canvas for wall décor.
3. Mix the Resin
Combine Magnifico ONE Resin and hardener in a 2:1 ratio. Stir slowly and thoroughly for 3–5 minutes to minimize bubbles.
4. Pour a Base Layer
Pour a thin layer of resin into your mold or base and allow it to partially cure. This gives the flowers a surface to rest on.
5. Place the Flowers
Gently set the dried flowers into the tacky base. Use tweezers to adjust position. Avoid pressing too hard.
6. Pour Final Resin Layer(s)
Carefully pour more resin to fully embed the flowers. Pour in layers if needed for large items to avoid overheating.
7. Remove Bubbles
Use a heat gun or torch lightly over the surface to pop any air bubbles.
8. Let It Cure
Cover the piece and allow it to cure undisturbed for 24–48 hours.
