Curator's pick: Deep Pour Clear Epoxy Resin 2 Gallon Kit
The low-viscosity formula is engineered to release bubbles naturally during a slow cure, which is critical when embedding dense materials like sand and shells. It offers superior UV resistance compared to standard tabletop resins, preventing the yellowing that typically ruins the aesthetics of beach-themed art over time.
⚠ Worth knowing: Natural acacia wood varies significantly in grain porosity, which can lead to air discharge and 'bubbling' during the initial pour if the wood surface isn't properly sealed first. Additionally, the heat gun must be used sparingly to avoid scorching the wood tannins or over-thinning the resin, which ruins the lacing effect of the white pigment.

How to use this together
1
Prepare Your Workspace
Before mixing your Deep Pour Clear Epoxy Resin 2 Gallon Kit, ensure your Natural Acacia Wood Serving Tray is clean and level. Lay down a protective sheet and gather all your materials, including the Natural Decorative Beach Sand and Seashell Mix, in an easily accessible area. Proper preparation prevents spills and ensures a smooth workflow.
2
Build Your Beach Base
Mix a small portion of your Clear Epoxy Resin according to instructions and pour a thin layer onto the tray. While wet, arrange your Natural Decorative Beach Sand and Seashell Mix to create your desired beach scene directly onto the resin. Allow this layer to cure slightly to secure the elements before adding more resin.
3
Create Ocean Effects
Mix another batch of Deep Pour Clear Epoxy Resin. Add drops of the Alcohol Ink Set Ocean Tones to create transparent water. Pour this over your beach base, carefully creating depth. For white lacing and foam effects, mix the White Opaque Resin Pigment Paste into a small amount of resin and drizzle it onto the 'water' surface. Use the Dual Temperature Heat Gun for Crafts on a low setting to gently spread the white pigment and pop any bubbles, creating realistic wave patterns. This layering and heat gun technique are key to achieving a lifelike ocean scene.
