When you begin creating with resin there are some must have supplies and some that aren't quite as necessary but still nice to have. The type of art or project you want to do may affect this list but it should cover the basics for most projects. Before you begin here is my list of essential and non-essential items you may want to invest in.

Resin art is super trendy right now but do you want to make the same stuff as everyone else or do you want to stand out? I'm all about experimenting and trying new techniques. Here are some of my favorite tools and items to help me do that!

I live in Canada but we have nice summers. It gets hot. That doesn't matter. I'm still always cold. Always. I'm also out in the cold all the time with my dogs and kids sports so I need to be prepared and prepared I am. These are my life saving products that keep me warm when the temperatures plummet.

I had someone tell me I treated my dogs like people once. Well….ya. I love my 2 German Shorthaired Pointers and they do get treated like people ‘cause they’re family too! Creatures of comfort there are some products they do get spoiled with for sure!

I live in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains in Cochrane, Alberta so I am close to Banff, Jasper, Canmore and all the surrounding beautiful nature that comes with it. I am blessed to see the mountains out my window and be able to go into them any time!
