    Yes, you can. This class is designed for beginners so it will teach you the whole process of making resin bangles from start to finish. It covers all the basics of working with quick curing resin that a beginner should know.

  • What kind of safety precautions do I need to take.

    We always advise that you wear gloves and goggles/safety glasses no matter what resin you are using. Some resins come with little or no information so it's best to always take these simple precautions and work in a well-ventilated space.

Resin Expert

Myléne Hillam

I’m Myléne Hillam, resin expert, designer for the craft industry, author and artist at Mill Lane Studio. Home for me is in Brisbane, in sunny Queensland, Australia. During the day (and most nights) you’ll find me playing with the many resin, art, craft and jewellery-making supplies in my studio. My interest in resin was first piqued in high school when I got to work with plastics in the Manual Arts Block. At the time, it was ground breaking for manual arts to be opened up to girls and I loved the hands-on nature of shaping and forming metal, wood and plastic. Of all the things we did in the manual arts centre, working with plastics was by far my favourite! My passion for plastic and resin was re-awakened about 15 years ago when I learned how to make resin bangles and rings and I haven’t stopped working with resin since! I’ve worked with many craft mediums over the years but none has held my interest like resin. I began experimenting with different techniques that caught the eye of resin manufacturers and I soon became a consultant to them, designing and creating the projects for their trade show booths, the educational materials for their buyers and resin projects for crafters, like you. I have made it my mission to educate myself on every aspect of resin; not just the fun part of working with resin, but the technical aspects also so that I have a deep understanding of how resin works. My expertise extends beyond resin bangles and rings now to include resin jewellery and resin homewares and there’s no end in sight with all the wonderful possibilities resin presents.
