[Jewelry Decoration] Dried Flower Earrings

Tools and Materials Preparation

• Materials: UV resin jewelry kit (including earring molds, dried flowers, metal frames, UV resin, UV lamp, resin tape, glitter, stickers, keychains, gloves, etc.)
• Protective Equipment: Always wear nitrile waterproof gloves, a waterproof apron for safe handling.

Environment Setup

• Ideal Conditions: Maintain a temperature between 73–78°F with humidity no higher than 50–60% RH.
• Ventilation: Work in a well-ventilated area, ideally near a window or use an air purifier for better airflow.

Step-by-step Instructions

Step 1

Tape both ends of a strip of tape to the table, sticky side up. This will keep the metal frame in place while you work.

Step 2

Apply a thin layer of UV resin inside the metal frame or silicone mold. Use a pointed tool to spread it evenly and fill every corner.

Step 3

Place a dried flower on top of the resin, then cure it under a UV lamp for 30 seconds. Flip it over and cure the other side for another 30 seconds.

Step 4

Apply another layer of UV resin over the dried flowers, completely covering it. Use a wooden stick to gently press down and release air bubbles trapped between the petals. This prevents them from rising to the surface while curing.

Step 5

For a shimmery effect, mix glitter into the UV resin and use it as a base coat inside the frame. Cure it under the lamp for 30 seconds before placing the flower.For a shimmery effect, mix glitter into the UV resin and use it as a base coat inside the frame.

Step 7

Cure under the UV lamp for 2 minutes, then flip and cure the back side for another 2 minutes to fully harden the earring.

Step 8

After curing, carefully demold your piece, attach the earring hooks, and your handmade dried flower earrings are ready to wear!
