Resin Plugs

So this technically is my second batch (and the sprinkles are the third). I got frustrated with the first and put them aside. I actually ended up having the same problem with these ones but since have realized that it was because the temperature was to low, they turned out okay...could have been better if I had a mini heater to begin with but because I didn't they don't have as smooth a surface that I would like (and they are kind of cloudy). The sprinkle ones turned out great and I am very pleased with them. I also made some coaster molds last night but I am not sure how well they will turn out. I can't wait to do more, I was kind of negative after the first batch but now I'm as excited as when I first started and ready to do more!
They need a little work but don't think I'll work on these much more.

Sorry for the blurry pic. The sprinkles are only on the top...next time I'll have to put more in.

At least I'm making progress!
