They Make These Fabulous Mosaic Steampunk Coasters That Are A Real Conversation Piece!

The O’Neil Sisters love mosaics and they especially love making them with resin. The crystal clear resin really lets you see the tiles and other interesting items embedded in the mosaic. If you’ve never tried resin before, they have some great tips and tricks for you. It’s all about mixing the two-part resin evenly and thoroughly and, the O’Neil Sisters show you how!

You can make these Steampunk Mosaic Coasters with all kind of goodies embedded in them. The O’Neil Sisters love steampunk so they used little locks, keys, and bees plus vitreous glass tiles. Pick your own goodies and make yours one-of-a-kind.
