turning a real butterfly into a UV resin necklace -advice needed!

I found this butterfly in the garden and would love to turn it into a necklace. I don't have much experience with UV resin yet.

Can I apply the UV resin directly onto the wings, or are there better methods?

I also saw a video where someone laminated the individual wings first using a laminator and laminating pouches.

However, I would prefer to keep the butterfly whole and just make a hole in each of the wings at the end. Is there a way to press the butterfly to make it flat without breaking it?

mosaic mirror

I finally finished my mosaic mirror project. It's kind of hard to take nice pictures of it. 😬🌸

another strawberry mosaic 🍓

Today I finally finished this strawberry mosaic. It was my first time working with different colored grouts, and it turned out really well.

mosaic experiment

​I experimented a bit with different materials like beads and a bowl that were still in the cupboard. I think it turned out really cute. 🥰

Other than the usual stuff, what are your favorite materials you've used for a mosaic so far?

happy with how it turned out 🩵

I'm so happy with how beautiful the grout turned out. That is seriously the most nerve-wracking thing ever. I spent at least two hours overthinking it and was so nervous.
