Project Overview & Aesthetic Design

A romantic, translucent gemstone coaster featuring a hollow center lined with genuine crushed quartz crystals, surrounded by concentric rings of blush pink, translucent white, and sparkling gold glitter veins.

Step-by-Step DIY Execution Guide

  • Use raw-edge geode silicone molds. Arrange real crushed clear quartz crystals in a small cluster in the center of the mold.

  • Mix 150ml of clear resin. Divide into clear, soft translucent blush pink (using 1 drop of pink alcohol ink), opaque white, and gold micro-glitter.

  • Drizzle a small amount of clear resin over the crushed crystals to lock them in place.

  • Pour concentric rings of blush pink and clear resin moving outward toward the mold edges.

  • Drizzle thin rings of opaque white and gold glitter between the pink bands.

  • Use a silicone stylus to drag outward lines from the center crystals, creating natural crystal striations.

  • Torch surface bubbles, cure for 24 hours, and hand-paint the irregular jagged outer perimeter with metallic liquid gold leaf.
