1. You can colorize the inside of the finding frame using nail polish, paper, or acrylic paint. If you are afraid the item you want to insert into the frame might shift, you can glue it down, let it dry, and then add the resin. Just make sure the glue is dry first! Use a hair dryer if you are in a hurry to dry the glue.

TIP: If you are using fragile organic materials, like small dried flowers, they are best sealed with white glue or a decoupage medium, such as Mod Podge, and allowed to dry before you add the resin. It will keep their tenderness from working against you. Hardier items, like dried leaves, aren’t usually a problem, but much weaker items, like flowers, sometime become so translucent they almost disappear if they aren’t sealed. Do a small resin test until you like your results.
