Step 1

First, trace the bottom of a heart-shaped metal frame pendant onto a paper doily. Cut out the shape a little smaller than the traced shape. Make sure the heart fits inside the metal frame; then remove the paper heart and set aside.

Step 2

Pour just enough UV resin to cover the bottom of the metal frame. Set your UV lamp over the mold and heat for about a minute.
TIP: Make sure your resin bottle is set away from the heat lamp, so you do not harden this resin, too!

Step 3

Now, place your paper heart inside your metal frame, add more resin and heat for another minute.

Step 4

Place assorted dried flowers over a portion of the paper heart layer, add enough resin to cover the surface of the previous layer and heat for the duration of the time cycle on the lamp.

Step 5

If needed, add a final layer of resin, then heat. If needed, heat for another time cycle or two until your resin is completely cured.

Step 6

Thread a ball chain through the jump ring at the top of your pendant.
