Making resin casts is a creative and popular craft project that can be done at home. A resin cast is formed when resin and a chemical catalyst are combined to form a hard, plastic-like material. These casts can be customized by pouring resin into molds, adding colors and embedding tokens. Resin cast supplies can be found at local hobby and craft stores as well as through many online retailers. Place the molds you’ll be casting on a flat, covered surface.
