Pick up a pack of pre-sanded natural wood tree slices from the wood craft aisle. Decorate the wood slices using wood-burning tools, acrylic paint designs, or botanical dried flower pressings. Mix a two-part clear epoxy resin according to package directions and carefully pour a thin, protective layer over the top surface of each wood slice, using a toothpick to pop any air bubbles. Allow the resin to cure flat for 24 to 48 hours for a glossy, waterproof finish.
