thanks! 😄
so these are flat on the back, I might actually file or sand them down a bit on the edges tho. The molds we used are available as part of a $35 UV resin kit (which is what we used in class) and I think I remember seeing the molds sold separately as well.
That makes sense, open back moulds are a lot easier to get a good result with from my limited resin experience so far. I have tried UV resin but tbh it kind of went yellowish after a while and looked awful, hopefully that doesn't happen with yours but more likely the stuff we bought was just really crappy!
I've not seen any communities pop up on Lemmy yet for resin crafts or jewellery making or anything to add to my master list but if you come across any, please let me know because I love looking at pretty stuff lol.
