It is an experience that you can enjoy. Mix the special liquid and powder thoroughly, dye the liquid in your favorite color, pour it into the mold, wait for it to harden, and it's finished! ◆You can choose your favorite mold from 5 types! ◆It hardens in about an hour after pouring into the mold, so if you are in a hurry, you can take it home on the same day! While you are waiting, you can kill time with our resin art experience♡Spend a relaxing time making things in a stylish store with a view of the sea! [What is Jesmonite?] Jesmonite is a water-based modeling material developed in the UK. Although it is a resin, it does not use organic solvents, is heat resistant, highly durable, and does not yellow or deteriorate easily. As a resin that is safe for the human body and the environment, it is used for a wide range of purposes such as art, sculpture, furniture, accessories, and architecture. Unlike resin, it has almost no glossiness that is typical of plastic, and is characterized by a calm texture like stone. The jesmonite you create can be used daily as an accessory tray, candle tray, aroma tray, small item holder, etc. [Notes] - It hardens in about 1 hour after pouring into the mold, but it takes about 24 hours to completely harden. If you wish to receive it on the day, please handle the work safely without dropping it until it is completely hardened. *We cannot guarantee against damage after delivery. - Due to the nature of the product, lumps and air bubbles will appear on the front and back. Please note that this does not affect the use of the product.
