Keep reading below for the step-by-step instructions to make your own.
The initials are the first letters of my name and my husbands name along with our anniversary date.
But of course, this can be adjusted or personalized in any way to suit your own project.

Change the font to Mahogany Script Standard for the initials and Bodoni MT for the date.
Highlight to go for the inscription, then select Attach from the tool bar.
Next, select Make It in Design Space to proceed with cutting out the premium vinyl.
Prepare a piece of transfer tape that is larger than the size of your bezel.
Sprinkle gold glitter flakes inside the bezel over the vinyl inscription and sticky side of the transfer tape.
Be sure to read all the instructions on the package before starting.
Work in a well-ventilated area.
Always wear gloves, a respirator, eye protection and protect your working surface.
Stir completely for two minutes.
Transfer the mixture into a second measuring cup and continue stirring for an additional minute.
Use the wooden stir stick to carefully transfer small amounts of resin into the bezel.
Going slowly will give you a chance to check for any leaks.
It will also help to prevent overflowing.
Continue filling until youve achieved a nice, small dome but not overflowing.
Use either a small kitchen torch or your breath through a straw for this.
check that that the bezel is on a level surface and cover to prevent any dust from settling in.
Let the resin cure overnight.
I love how these faux inscribed resin keychains turned out.
With the vinyl theres no limit to which inscriptions you’re free to make.
Just be prepared to spend some time weeding the fine details!
I think these key chains/pendants would make a lovely wedding or Anniversary gift as well.
