Hi I’m trying to make a paperweight with a rose or a peon is from my daughters bouquet.
Every time I pour the resin in to the mould over the flowers they go flat. Can I spray the flowers first with spray resin or should I paint as many petals by hand with resin to stiffen them .
Any help would be appreciated

Hi Juliet,

I like to use Resin gloss sealer spray on flowers after they are dried and before including them in resin. You can find it in our store here: https://shop.resinobsession.com/collections/tools-and-supplies/products/castin-craft-gloss-resin-sealer-spray . Not only does it seal the flowers, but it makes them very stiff too. It sounds like what your project needs.
