I felt like a mad scientist during one of my first attempts with using clear casting epoxy to make jewelry components. To make these glitter stars, you'll need:

1 box of clear casting epoxy
1 bottle of mold release
1 star mold tray
Red, white, and blue glitter
A few disposable plastic spoons
2 small disposable cups
1 small measuring scoop
Large sheet of waxed paper

I'm going to talk about some of the supplies I used as I also tell you how to make the stars. Just about all of them I found at my local craft store, so they should not be that difficult to locate.

Safety note:
Make sure you read all the manufacturer's instructions, and try not to get any of these materials on your skin.
