How To Make Resin Magnets?

 Resin magnets are a fun and easy DIY project that can be customized to fit any style or theme. Here are some steps to make resin magnets:

Materials Needed

• Resin
• Hardener
• Mixing cups
• Stirring sticks
• Silicone mold
• Magnets
• Decorative items (such as paper, glitter, beads, or small objects)

Steps

1. Prepare the resin and hardener according to the manufacturer's instructions. Mix them together in a mixing cup.
2. Add any desired decorative items to the resin mixture. This can include paper, glitter, beads, or small objects.
3. Pour the resin mixture into the silicone mold. Fill the mold about 3/4 of the way full.
4. Place a magnet in the center of the resin mixture. Make sure it is fully submerged in the resin.
5. Allow the resin to cure according to the manufacturer's instructions. This can take anywhere from a few hours to a full day.
6. Once the resin has cured, remove the magnets from the mold. They should pop out easily.
7. Clean up any excess resin around the edges of the magnets with a craft knife or sandpaper.
