Using Crushed Glass in Artline Epoxy Resin: Shine, Depth, and Expression in Your Creations

Epoxy resin is a material with vast creative potential. And when you add crushed glass to it, your work transforms with entirely new qualities—light reflection, depth, and striking texture. Today, we’ll explain how to use crushed glass with Artline Resin, the effects you can achieve, and what to keep in mind.

🔹 Why use crushed glass?

Crushed glass (glass chips, crushed glass) is a decorative material that pairs perfectly with clear and translucent resins. It:

💎 Adds shine and depth
🌊 Creates the look of ice, stone slices, or minerals
✨ Enhances the three-dimensional effect of your design
🎨 Combines beautifully with pigments, inks, and dried flowers

🔸 Where can it be used?

In ocean art pours
For coasters, trays, and clocks
In interior panels and wall art
In tabletops and river tables
In decorative jewelry and art objects

🔹 Which Artline resin is best suited?

Artline Crystal — Perfect for crushed glass: ultra-clear, fluid, beautifully envelops the decor, and highlights depth.
Artline Honey — If you want the glass to “stay in place” and not sink, use this thicker resin.

⚠️ Important: Before pouring, make sure the crushed glass surface is clean and dry to avoid bubbles and cloudiness.

🔸 How to use it?

Arrange the crushed glass on your mold or surface. You can secure it with a drop of resin.
Carefully pour resin around or over it.
If needed, use a two-step pour: first to fix the decor, then a final topcoat.
Once cured, optionally sand or apply another glossy resin layer for finishing.
