Step-by-step Instructions

Step 1

Cut the fishing line to your desired length, straighten it, and secure it onto a silicone mat using tape.

Step 2

Add green and yellow translucent dyes to clear UV resin and mix well. Use a dropper to place small, pea-sized resin drops evenly along the fishing line.

Step 3

Cure the resin under a UV light for 30–40 seconds until it becomes semi-cured.

Step 4

Use a brush to apply opal chameleon flakes onto the semi-cured UV resin. After applying the powder, cure them under the UV light for another 2 minutes.

Step 5

Once cured, flip the piece over, add a small drop of clear UV resin to the back, and cure to form a round, bead-like shape.

Step 6

Cure everything under UV light for 2 minutes until fully hardened.

Step 7

Use iron wire to attach the fishing line to the popsicle stick.

Step 8

Insert the popsicle stick into the planter, sprinkle some small stones to secure it, and you're all set! Your sparkling decoration is ready to brighten up your indoor space!
