In this creative DIY project, I experiment with casting delicate dandelion blooms into epoxy to make beautiful, unique LED lamps! 🏮✨ Using a glass dome to showcase the glowing dandelions and a custom 3D-printed base to ensure the light shines through, we're experimenting throughout the entire process, from picking the perfect dandelions to the epoxy pour and assembly.
💡 What you'll see in this video:
Picking dandelions at different stages (closed and fully bloomed)
Experimenting with various techniques to preserve their shape
Pouring epoxy into silicone molds for a crystal-clear finish
Designing and 3D printing a custom base that works perfectly with the LED light
Bringing everything together into a stunning illuminated lamp
💬 Join me in the process of trial, error, and experimentation as I tackle the challenges of casting natural elements into resin, working with epoxy, and creating a unique lighting piece.
🔧 Tools & Materials Used:
Epoxy resin (Total Boat Thick Set Clear Casting Epoxy)
Silicone molds
LED light bases and glass domes
