Today Grace will show you how easy it is to create a geode effect onto one of our wood surfaces using resin and a few other supplies. Don’t be scared! It looks intimidating when you look at the picture of our geode plaque below, but with the right supplies and by following Grace’s technique, you’ll be able to create your own “faux geode”! Don’t forget to let it sit for at least 24 hours for it to harden completely before you touch it.
