Do You Need to Seal Paper Flowers Before Adding them To Resin?

  • Hi Everyone. Adding paper can be problematic when adding it to resin and I wanted to ensure that these flowers were not going to be ruined by the resin for an upcoming project. So do you need to seal paper flowers before adding them to resin? This is the experiment I do using several different sealing methods to see if it makes any difference to the paper flowers in the resin.

    The lighter background makes a huge difference in getting to see the actual finished pieces! Especially with blue or purple projects and I know that you are fond of using blue, which is lovely, but hard for us to see fully when it’s against a blue background. Thank you, Steve. 🙂

    Thank you for the thanks! The white background does make it a lot easier to see the colors and finished pieces; it looks like it is a light pink to me, which is probably due to your light source- some bulbs read/are seen as being "warm" and some are "cool white". It still works very well.

    The white background works for some projects! I often work on a white background, however, there's just something about the blue that sets of some things.
    Lovely work with these flowers.... I'm not sure that I wouldn't want to seal them so they didn't lose color and show "water spots". Please revisit them in a couple of months so we can see if there's any changes. Thank you for sharing this idea with us.
    Hope all is well with you and yours ( fur babies too) .

Though I'm sure the people who created such beautiful works have been doing quilling a long time and they are faster than myself.
