Step by Step Guide for lava

Step 1 Prepare Your Workspace
Cover your surface with a silicone mat or parchment paper Resin is sticky and permanent so take precautions Always work in a well ventilated area

Step 2 Mix Your Resin
Follow the instructions on your resin kit Mix the resin and hardener thoroughly but slowly to avoid bubbles

Step 3 Add Your Pigments
Pour the clear resin into separate cups and add different colors to each One should be your base color then others can be accent swirls Use alcohol ink for that cloudy lava flow effect or mica powder for more shimmer

Step 4 Pour in Layers
Pour your base layer into the mold Then drip in your colored resins at random Use a stick to gently swirl the colors without over mixing This is where the magic starts

Step 5 Use Heat to Create Flow
Use a heat gun or torch to pop bubbles and guide the resin movement The heat helps mimic that  lamp motion and adds depth to the art

Step 6 Let It Cure
Let your resin cure for at least 24 to 48 hours Check the label on your brand for exact timing Once it’s hard and glassy you’re done
