Beach coasters w/pigment sea

Interestingly, the front side of the pigment didn’t distribute the same as it did on the underside. I’m still very pleased with the final outcome, and my original concern that the “water” layer should be behind the sand is now not a concern at all. I still might try it in reverse order, but I like the way the water looks like it is washing over the sand in these. I need to work on my technique to see if I can add a white layer of bubbles at the edge of the water. I can likely do this at the last step after pouring the water by adding white pigmented resin at the edge of the water. It will take a bit of practice.

Back side of one of these coasters – note how the pigment (water layer) distributed almost as if it was brushed while the top layer retained more of the look that it had as it was applied.

  1. They are beautiful! I can see them set around a patio with white adirondack chairs or wicker furniture and beachy cushions, a big frosted pitcher of lemonade and summer flowers. 🙂
