How To Make Resin Door Knobs And Pulls

August 8, 2020 by Shellie Wilson

If you are new to resin casting then check out this detailed article on Basic resin casting over at our sister site. 

The basic materials you need will be resin ofcourse. I highly recommend starting out with a craft resin and then as you progress you can purchase in larger quantities.  This is the same resin that can be used for resin-pouring projects too.

Resin doorknobs or drawer pulls are the perfect way to add your own style to a cupboard or door. Bohemian style drawer pulls are very popular right now and you can pick them up in stores such as Anthropologie but they will cost you a small fortune. These DIY pulls are easy to make and lots of fun too.

Polyester Resin: is a liquid plastic that hardens when a few drops of the catalyst are added to create a chemical reaction. Polyester Resin is durable and is the resin of choice for industrial applications and serious crafters who are experienced in resin casting. This resin is highly toxic and should be used in a well-ventilated area using protective masks to avoid inhalation. One main advantage of Polyester Resin is the depth in which it can be poured for larger embed projects. Polyester Resin is cheaper to buy than Epoxy resin as it is generally purchased in larger quantities such as 1lt + tins.

Epoxy Resin: These resins are more frequently used in the crafting and hobby world, they are easy to use with a low toxicity, making them suitable for ventilated craft rooms and work areas. Epoxy resin is perfect for jewelry casting as it has a shallow setting depth, so it will cure quickly when used correctly.
