      Worked great! I didnt have masking tape so I used duck tape. I used Lisa Palvekas UV resin, alcohol ink for color, & a UV light. When I peeled off the tape the bottom resin was a little wet so I put in back under the light with that side up. When that was cured I applied clear resin to the entire back to make sure the resin wouldnt fall out since the cells arent very deep. I know have a beautiful pair of pique-a-dour stained glass earrings. Thanks for your help!!

      I would like to create faux plique-a-jour jewelry using transparent colored resin & filigree brass findings. I cant figure out how to keep the resin inside the cells without running underneath the piece. Thank you

      Hi Laurie,

      I would suggest attaching your frames to masking tape.  You can see what Im talking about in this tutorial:  https://www.resinobsession.com/Resin-Tutorials/336/Wire-and-resin-jewelry-tutorial.html  Press down the edges really well and the resin wont run out underneath.  Once its cured, it can peel off the tape.
