How-To:

If you want to learn more about resining bezels, have a look at this tutorial, it's all about bezels and has lots of ideas and techniques.

As shown in the tutorial above, start by putting black resin on one side of your bezel, and white on the other side. Darker colors (black) will overwhelm lighter colors (white), so use more white to start. You can drip more black in as needed. I put dots down the right edge, then pulled a headpin through them to make heart shapes, you can play around and make all sorts of swirls and patterns.

The longer you wait before combining, then manipulating your colored resin, the more clear and precise the patterns will be.

In these next 2 pieces I created the base black and white designs, let that set up for at least 4 hours, then poured a doming layer of clear resin on top. I waited about 1-1/2 hours for the resin to thicken up, then inserted the charm/wire. I pushed it down into the firming resin creating a ripple effect that really catches the light and adds dimension to the piece. If you do this too early your accents will just sink in the top layer. It'll still look good, but you won't have the ripple effect.

At this angle you can easily see how the ripple effect catches the light.
