Resin Opals - Faux Opals

I found this really interesting cellophane glitter material that I thought would generate a nice opal effect. Regular glitter didn’t work, so I wanted to try it. After a few failures I figured out a way to achieve the desired effect. Materials used: Envirotex Lite epoxy resin, black mica powder, cellophane glitter, molds, mixing cups and a mixing stick.
