20 DIY Soft Girl Room Decor

Protect your desk while adding vintage elegance with custom resin or clay coasters embedded with delicate dried flowers and botanical leaves.

Materials Needed: Round silicone coaster molds, two-part epoxy resin, dried pressed pansies or fern fronds, and gold metallic flakes.
Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. Mix your epoxy resin according to instructions and pour a clear base layer into each round silicone coaster mold.
2. Place your pressed pansies and fern fronds face down in the resin, adding small pinches of gold metallic flakes around the flowers.
3. Pour the top layer of clear resin over the botanicals, pop any bubbles, and let cure for 24 to 48 hours.
4. Demold your coasters and wipe them clean with a microfiber cloth.

Cork Backings: Glue a thin round cork pad to the bottom of each resin coaster to prevent slipping on wooden desks.
Coaster Holder: Make a matching small resin holder box to store your coaster set when not in use.
Tip: Ensure the flowers are 100% dry before encasing in resin, as fresh moisture can cause browning over time.
