Resin crafting, especially when making a large quantity of charms, can indeed be a time-consuming process. From my own experience, starting early is key to avoiding the stressful 'con crunch' period that many artists face just before conventions. By planning to complete all resin coating a month before the convention, I found it helped not only reduce last-minute rush but also gave me ample buffer time to fix any issues. When working on a large batch, like 200+ charms, setting a daily goal is useful; for instance, completing 30 to 40 charms in 6 hours helped me keep a steady pace without burnout. It’s important to have a dedicated workspace for resin curing to ensure each charm is properly finished and dried without dust or bubbles. I also recommend organizing your charms by design or project so that you can streamline the resin pouring and curing process. This approach minimizes switching between different sets, which can waste time. For those also creating stickers or digital art for sale at artist alleys or cons, combining your digital work preparation with physical crafting can maximize productivity. Using hashtags like #digitalart, #artistalley, and #acryliccharms can also help you connect with the community for tips and support. Lastly, patience is crucial—resin curing times can vary, but rushing the process will affect the quality of your charms. By embracing the process and organizing your schedule, resin crafting can become a rewarding part of your art production workflow.
