Creating resin art is Expensive !!!. If you decide to start resin art as a hobby you will realize that its not just resin you have to invest in. You need pigments, tools like hot gun or blow torch, silicone molds, mdf bases, embellishments and so much more.
So is there any way you can save a little money???
There are a few ways to save money when creating resin art:
Use less expensive materials: Instead of using more expensive materials like gold leaf or crushed gemstones, try using less expensive alternatives like glitter or acrylic paint.
Buy in bulk: Buying larger quantities of resin and pigments can save you money in the long run as opposed to buying small bottles.
Create your own molds: Creating your own molds can be a cost-effective way to make multiple pieces of resin art.
Use recycled materials: If you can use materials you already have, such as old bottles or jars, rather than buying new ones.
Make your own pigments: Instead of buying premade pigments, you can make your own by mixing acrylic paint or food coloring with resin. Personally i believe that using good quality resin pigment coloring is always worth it for the long term quality of the product but if you are just starting out you can go for good quality acrylic paints that can also be used for other hobby's like painting, etc
Use smaller quantities of resin: If you're making small pieces, use less resin and less pigments to save money.
Don't be afraid to experiment: Practice different techniques, and use different materials and methods to find the most cost-effective way to create your resin art.
Look for sales or discounts: Many art supply stores offer sales or discounts on resin and pigments, so keep an eye out for those deals.
By keeping these tips in mind, you can create beautiful resin art while also saving money.
