Experimenting with resin?!

[Complete in one day] Summer research project: Experimenting with resin!? #resin #summerproject #howtosummarize

If you want to try your hand at making things with resin, why not purchase a resin craft kit? It comes with all the basic materials and tools, so you can start creating right away.

Deciding what shape to make and which parts to decorate with—and bringing your ideas to life—is a lot of fun.

While resin is often used for crafts, you can also do experiments, such as comparing how quickly different resin liquids cure! If it’s your first time, please work together with a parent or guardian.

Gem-like soap

Summer Independent Research: How to Make Gemstone-Like Soaps [Recommended for Girls] [Research]

Gemstone soaps are available as DIY kits, but they’re easy to make as long as you have glycerin soap and coloring.

Cut the glycerin soap into small pieces and place them in a container, then heat in a microwave at 500W for 10 seconds.

Mix in your favorite colorant to add color, and add aroma for fragrance.

Once you’ve made a few colors, pour them into another container in layers and let them set—that’s it! Try changing the color combinations and see what kinds of gemstones you can create.

Using a clear soap base also gives a light, airy look and is highly recommended.

An ehou-maki that makes you want to take a big bite

You can even use it for pretend play! Why not try making an ehomaki that looks so real you’ll want to eat it? It’s super cute and looks just like the real thing! Cut a pool noodle and wrap black felt around the sides.

Take two circles of thick paper, glue white yarn onto them in a spiral to represent white rice, and attach them to the top and bottom of the pool noodle.

Then use felt and beads to make tuna, salmon, cucumber, salmon roe, and more.

Stick them on top of the “rice,” and you’re done!

Cute beaded candy craft

Please do it with cute beads ☺️💓#tiktok classroomLife with childrenSummer Vacation Craft#StayHomeTime

Let’s make cute candies using your favorite beads! Cut the soft case into your preferred shape, fold it in half, then use a hair iron to apply heat and seal the edges to make a little pouch.

Fill it with beads and seal the opening.

Stick masking tape on both ends of the candy, trim it with a zigzag cut, and you’re done.

Try using different beads to create various kinds of candies.

If you make the bag for holding the candies the same way, it’ll look extra cute and really stand out.

Here’s a cute craft idea for making an eyeshadow palette using an empty candy case.

If you’re interested in makeup but it’s still a bit early to try it for real, make this and enjoy the mood! You’ll need a clear plastic sheet, sequins, masking tape, and iridescent film.

Put sequins into the case lid, then attach a piece of the clear sheet cut to the same size and seal the edges with masking tape.

Stick pieces of iridescent film where the candies used to be to mimic eyeshadow pans, make a brush from a straw and a chenille stem, and you’re done!
