Resin is a really cool medium.
You've probably seen it all around the internet, whether it's being used to make rivers in wooden tables, or to create keychains. It can basically be anything, or hold anything — and that's where the cursed projects come in.
From chicken nuggets to apple watches, people have put some weird stuff in resin. Let's check it out.
The resin isn't even encasing the pickles, which basically guarantees these are going to keep shriveling and eventually crack. I hate this so much.
This iPhone is totally functional, despite the fact that it's encased in resin. There's only so much you can do with a phone you can't touch, but it's still cool.
Sorry, a chicken tender. And yes, it lights up, and yes, the light is LED and thus can change the colors of the tender from white to a cool purple.
An ashtray full of tiny toy babies. What, do you not need an ashtray full of toy babies? Why not? It'll make some wonderful decor for your home.
When Apple said those bad boys were waterproof, they were not joking around. This thing survived being encased in liquid resin, sure, but it also survived the superheated curing process. Go, Apple.
Um... so this person preserved their expensive shoes in resin, rather than a display box. FYI, even the nicest resins yellow over time. So. Keep that in mind.
Listen, this D20 die from Dungeons & Dragons is cursed, yes. It's awful. But it's beautiful in its own way, and at least it still works the way it's supposed to. Looking at you, iPhone.
These pens are made with dog nail trimmings. I cannot express how disgusted I am with this concept. And they're not even nicely distributed in there! 0/10, I hate it.
This is SO funny to me. Not only did they preserve a hot dog, but they also went ahead and did the condiments, too. I actually have no clue how this was done because resin heats up as it cures. How?
That much resin alone could easily set you back $95, so the fact that this is priced so "reasonably" is pretty impressive to me. I wouldn't buy it, but I am impressed.
Now, whether it should last forever is up for debate, but I digress. This burger has actually been in that resin cube for about six months, with no sign of decomposition.
I mean...this could actually sell very well, but I also have some questions as to why it was even made in the first place. Art is a weird medium.
If I had to see it, you have to see it. This is a meatball that someone's grandpa preserved in resin 30+ years ago. I am obsessed with the idea that humans have always wanted to do weird stuff with resin, apparently.
Why anyone thought it would be a good idea to encase Fruity Pebbles in resin to make ashtrays is beyond me. This is a yabba-dabba-don't in the craft world.
I'm really trying to think of a reason why anyone would need to make a toilet seat out of resin and coins. When it comes to toilet seats, let's just leave those as they are, okay? Not everything needs a DIY makeover.
Thankfully, most of us never had to experience of era of Jell-O mold meals but if you really wanted to, someone went ahead and made this commemorative resin lamp. This reminds me of Rachel's famous trifle on Friends.
I think they were trying to use resin to create an ocean wave effect but it kind of looks like someone just poured laundry detergent over some plywood. Better luck next time!
I'm all for organizing your books. I'm all for using bookends to do so! What I'm not for us making a bookend out of a real watermelon slice encased in resin. That's just not what anyone needs right now.
Granted, this isn't the best photo of the product but I can't help but feel like this thing is going to topple over any moment. If that happened, it would be a disaster of epic proportions — and just think about all that wasted wine!
What happens when you combine crochet with resin? You would think it would be the best of the craft world coming together at last, right? Well, someone tried to make flooring out of resin and crochet granny squares, and this... was the result.
If you grew up in the early 2000s, the chances are pretty good that you had a Furby. Some people have taken it upon themselves to make resin Furby faces for their own crafting purposes. Those soulless eyes are giving me the creeps.
Honestly, this is pretty damn creative. The cereal was distributed perfectly, the milk looks perfect, and I love that it's arranged in a rainbow. I have no notes.
You know, a themed bathroom can work now and then but this is probably taking it one step too far. There's something vaguely threatening about a toilet seat lid with a pair of scissors on it, right?
