      This question comes through email by Lan:

      Hello!

      I have a resin cuff that is too big. Is there a way I can blend it to make the space in between the cuff smaller? I love this cuff and I dont want to crack it but its too big. What can I do? Thanks for your help!

      Lan,

      Theres no way you can resize with heat, but without damaging it.  My suggest would be to cut it in half vertically, remove some of the center, then rejoin.  A few of my rejoining suggestions:

      1.  Rejoin with a metal hinge, which would make the cut obvious.
      2.  Rejoin with clear resin, knowing you will have to sand a seam off.
      3.  Rejoin with a colored resin, making it a new decorative part of the bracelet.

      Good luck!
