Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Prepare your workspace by covering it with protective paper and wear gloves and a mask.
2. Mix the epoxy resin according to the package instructions, ensuring a thorough blend.
3. Pour a thin base layer of resin into the silicone cat paw mold.
4. Before the resin cures, sprinkle a small amount of glitter and tiny beads onto the base layer.
5. Pour a second layer of resin to cover the decorations, filling the mold nearly to the top.
6. Use a toothpick to gently pop any bubbles that appear.
7. Let the resin cure fully, following the resin's curing time (usually 24-48 hours).
