Dollar Store Arts and Crafts, Thursday, Period 1

"Today, we're learnin' resin crafts," Hardison said once the class had gathered. "Resin is a kind of clear epoxy that's real easy to use. You can put it over finished art projects to make 'em spill resistant an' give 'em a high gloss, but you can also use resin as it's own medium. It's really easy to make a lot of pretty art: so long as you got a frame to keep the resin in place, you can suspend all sorts of things inside it. It'll keep 'em in place an dry clear. However if you want to, you can add a few drop of paint to the resin - for example, with some dark blue paint, a couple of silver, glitter stars, an' a necklace pendant, you can make yourself a beautiful necklace of the night sky. So whether you wanna work on somethin' small, like personal jewelry, or a giant table-sized project, with just some resin an' the right materials, you can make art on any scale."

While the lecture was a little underwhelming, Hardison followed it up with a demonstration. "You can decorate phone cases, make dioramas, really whatever you want," he said as he delicately laid some dried flowers into the pendant frame.
