Personal Items Welcome
Feel free to bring personal items. If they are
porous they should be sealed before placing in resin. Test on a hidden area first. Sand Dollars and starfish are porous, very easily penetrated by resin and should always be sealed.
Many people bring shells or seaglass collected on family vacations or old beach badges to include in their design.
Photos must be laminated before placed in resin
We recommend leaving your project overnight to become solid
If you decide to take it home at the end of class it must stay level or it will slide an possibly ruin the design.
***The box must be on a completely flat surface in your car. The floor or trunk area.
It cannot be placed on a seat. Even a slight incline can cause the epoxy to move.

Tips for those that need to bring thier project home after class.
Before the Event:
Make space in your car. It cannot be placed on a seat.
Even thought the epoxy will be thickening it will move if it its kept on any incline.
It may be transported on a flat area in your trunk or on the floor.
The box should be secured so that it doesn't slide when you stop short or for lights etc.
Once you get home:
Bring the box inside and place it in a safe area at room temperature to cure.
Check the project to make sure nothing has shifted. You will still be able to gently move
items back in place.
It will be solid (partially cured) overnight but will takes 3 days to cure completely to its hardest state. Do not hang untill completely cured.
Displaying your Masterpiece
Use command strips to hang or use an easel. It should not be in direct sunlight or kept outdoors.
You must Transport Flat on a Level Surface
Never place on a seat. Even the
Smallest incline can cause the resin to shift.
Be sure the box is secured so it does not
move around if you stop short or for a light etc.
