I build movie/game armor for fun, and use resin to harden the papermesh of the armor.

But i must ask, what is resin jewelry?

like my picture is consider resin jewelry. There is a lot of cool stuff the can do with it. I'm just not sure where to start

Oh, so, like, stuff inside a resin cast?

Well if i were to try start, i would probably use styrofoam, mould out what you want (eg: want an oval pendant? mould an oval indent into the foam), put what you want it, then pour resin over it.

As for places to look, i cant help you there.

Sorry..
