Cheap Craft Supply Alert for Resin Lovers

| 5 Comments

 After watching this very cool video on how to make a resin bracelet by Jennifer Perkins of the Naughty Secretary Club, my shopping cart in Target did an automatic about-face (insert sound of tires squeeching…rrrrrtttt…here) while cruising through the dollar section of the store. Ice cube trays – and not just any ice cube trays but trays with cool shapes in there, and yep, for $1. Right away I thought of Jennifer’s resin video I had just watched the other day.

Now, of course, she uses rectangle-shaped trays for her resin bracelet components, but I realized these shapes might work well with some kind of resin project using the same or similar technique she demonstrates in her video.

I’m sure all Targets have a different stash of $1 stuff, but just in case you happen to be in your own local Target in the near future, keep an eye for these.

Welcome to the Crafty Princess Diaries, my weblog and site where I get to blab about my passion for crafts, primarily jewelry making, and my crafting career. My name is Tammy Powley, and I decided to call my blog the Crafty Princess Diaries because of this very dorky picture I have of myself and because my husband often refers to me as “the princess and the pea,” which is just another way to say that I tend to be particular sometimes. Along with this weblog, I have a number of jewelry making books published.

  1. Oh no! A new craft I’m dying to try…must restrain myself.

    Thank you for sharing the clip, it’s great to have a good idea of what you’re getting into before you try something new.

  2. It does help to “see” someone I think. Not that many people do resin, but it’s getting more popular lately.

  4. I have some 2 part resin and can’t wait to get a time to try this, after watching the Naughty Secretary video and the one by John. Of course, the Naughty Secretary video uses the molds, but John’s bezel frames were really cool.
