Project difficulty: Easy
Project time: 24hrs
What you’ll need:
- Epoxy Resin
Use code RESINFORBEGINNERS to get 15% off Apex Resin - Ghost Silicone Mould
Use code RESINFORBEGINNERS15 to get 15% off the mould we used from Create Resin Craft Supplies. - Glow in the dark pigment powder
Again we used this one from Create Resin Craft Supplies. - Nitrile gloves
- Mixing cup
- Mixing sticks
- Sharpie pen
How it’s done:
- Mix up the resin according to your instructions for your chosen resin brand. They all vary slightly.
- Now, add 1 small scoop of glow in the dark powder.
- Next, mix thoroughly to get an even spread of the powder.
- Let sit for 5 minute to allow bubbles to rise and pop.
- Next, pour slowly in to the mould.
TIP: Before the mould is full – squeeze the arms gently to make sure you don’t have air bubbles. - Allow your ghost to cure for your resins’ full cure time.
- Next it’s un-mould time.
TIP: If your resin is stuck in the mould, use a little dishwashing liquid around the edges and push it down in the mould. It’ll pop right out. - Now you can, colour in the eyes and mouth with a black sharpie. It may take a few layers to be patient. Allow to dry for around 10 minutes in-between each layer before adding the next.
You could also use UV resin or nail polish.
TIP: If it smudges, use nail polish remover to wipe off. - Let your ghost sit in the sun for a few hours to ‘charge’ the glow in the dark.
- Now – take your glow in the dark resin ghost into the dark and enjoy!
