Glitter Material

Made with plant based glitters, ethical mica (not mined by children) also known as lab mica, holographic pigments, colourshifting flecks and powders etc.

Nikki’s Tip: The resulting vibrancy will depend on how much of the flakes or grains you use, how it's placed and your other additions, inclusions and elements. Cremation ashes, for example, vary in colour from white through to browns, greys and black. Please make sure you tell your clients you cannot guarantee a shade but feel free to show them our stock images until you have your own. 

Size

Sold by volume, not weight. These are packaged by hand in South Wales, UK by Nikki's mum and we do our best to slightly overfill each bag.

Our Easy Cremation Ring Tutorial is a good place to start if you are new to direct pour work. It shows how to make a cremation ashes ring with UV in a simple beginner friendly way.

Upselling

We recommend you buy a compatible necklace setting, for example a small necklace setting (for example) to accompany any ring, bead or necklae. Once you've made the keepsake, you can offer to make a necklace for a small extra charge (£30 or so). Around half of your customers will take you up on this.

Upsell accessories, such as a ring holder necklace along with any ring, especially for clients who work with their hands or need to take their ring off during the day.

Learn about the Boobie Awards (Nursiversaries) here on Tree of Opals. We also offer opalescent flakes here, which are mylar shards, other birthstones are available here and the October birthstone dangle charm is here. Buy individual crushed glass colours here, you can buy the full set of Crushed Glass for Resin Set here and our Birthstone Crushed Glass here. Opal dangle charms here and gold filled opal dangle charms are here.

Simply premix with resin then pour this into your mould, or push it into a mould already filled with resin, or sprinkle in a setting along with breastmilk pearly sparkle mixes. You can also add your clients' elements or inclusions like breastmilk, lock of hair, umbilical cord and placenta or cremation ashes. Then cure in the usual way. Or you can add your resin to the mould before adding the forget-me-not flowers.

If working with UV resin we recommend you work in layers to achieve beautiful depths of colour.
