By staying within this price bracket, you can still find artisan-quality craftsmanship without overspending.

Yes, once fully cured, high-quality resin is a hard, durable plastic that is resistant to water and light impacts, making it perfect for coasters and trays.
How do I clean resin art pieces?
Most resin pieces can be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers to keep the glossy finish looking new.
Can resin art be left in direct sunlight?
While it can handle some light, it is best to avoid prolonged direct sunlight, which can cause some resins to yellow or soften over many years.
