Make an I spy game resin trinket serving tray

Step 1. Glue

Use glue and attach the base of each small hanging bowl.

Continue to fill in the gaps with small pieces. The bones are the longest on my tray, they use a lot of resin to cover all the pieces... so plan accordingly, choosing flat elements.

That's when my pieces run out…then I stopped. There is more space, so fill as much as you want.

Step two. Resin

Now mix in 8 ounces of resin in a two-step process according to the directions on the package. Mix the resin part the hardener stir for 2 full minutes.

Then pour the resin into the second glass, mix the resin for a full minute with a new stick. This mixing process is essential for the proper setting of the resin.

Then pour the resin mixture over the surface of the pan. The resin settles on its own, so it will fold up the tray, filling gaps, holes, small spaces in the rods.

So start with 8 ounces of resin to give it the exact time it takes to fill the gap.

After 20 minutes, use a gun or mini flash to remove any bubbles.

Then cover the tray and leave it overnight. The cap won't let it end up on dust, lint or even flies. Of course it would be nice to add flies to this eye tray, wouldn't it?

When the resin has cured overnight, mix and add 8 ounces of resin to the saucepan. Each resin cup makes the tray heavier, so keep that in mind. Continue this process to add the resin, leaving it overnight until you are happy with a smooth coating.

Then stick a label on the item to spy on the kids when they see the hanging tray. This is a beautiful handmade gift.
