More resin jewellery

As promised, here are photos of the resin pieces that didn't turn out so well.

You can see how the resin seeped into the paper in the corner of that pendant and in the top bit of the earring. I was really disappointed with the earring, especially since the other half of the pair turned out great. You can see that below:


My take-away from this? Make sure the paper is completely sealed before adding resin. I guess I was too impatient to check. Sigh. 

Anyhow, I like the round pendant and the purple flower earrings (shown in my previous post) enough that I'll probably be listing them in my Etsy store

I also made some bottlecap samples. I haven't decided what to do with them quite yet. I might turn them into simple fridge magnets, or maybe glue on some bails for pendants. What would your preference be?
