Resin Christmas Ornaments and Wind Chimes

Homemade decorations make the festive season special. Resin Christmas ornaments catch the light beautifully on a tree, and the same techniques make wind chimes and hanging pieces you can enjoy all year. This Haanz Art Guide covers our Christmas and hanging moulds and how to turn pieces into finished ornaments.

Colour ideas for festive pieces
- Classic: clear resin with red and gold glitter.
- Snowy: white mica resin with silver flakes.
- Frosted: clear resin with a little white for a soft, icy look.
- Forest: deep green resin with gold leaf.
- Starry night: dark blue with white dots and silver glitter.
Pour glitter or foil in the first thin layer so it sits at the front. See How to Colour Resin.
Making a hanging loop
- Plan the hole at the top centre so the ornament hangs straight.
- Drill after curing with a small bit, a few millimetres from the edge. See Drilling, Sanding and Polishing Resin.
- Thread a ribbon, cord or jump ring through the hole.
- Add a tassel at the bottom of wind chime pieces or bookmarks for movement.
Building a wind chime
- Pour several wind chime pieces in matching or graduated colours.
- Drill a hole at the top (and bottom, if pieces will hang in a chain).
- Tie each piece to fishing line or thin cord at different lengths.
- Fix the cords to a ring, a wooden hoop or a driftwood branch.
- Hang in a sheltered spot where light shines through the resin.
Resin pieces gently tap together rather than ringing like metal, so wind chimes are more about colour and light than sound.
Gift and decoration ideas
- Personalised tree ornaments with family initials (see Name, Message and Heart Moulds).
- A set of snowman fridge magnets as stocking fillers.
- Reindeer gift toppers tied to presents with ribbon.
- A window wind chime in sea colours.

Timing tip
Start Christmas resin projects early. Each pour needs time to cure, and drilling and finishing take time too. Making ornaments in batches over a few weekends is easier than doing everything in December.
Caring for silicone moulds
Silicone moulds last a long time if you look after them:
- Demould gently by flexing the silicone. Don’t pull pieces out with tools.
- Wipe moulds clean with a soft cloth or tape to lift dust. Don’t scrub with anything rough, or the shiny finish of future pieces will suffer.
- Store moulds flat, out of sunlight, and don’t stack heavy things on top, so they keep their shape.
- Keep a separate set of moulds for resin only. Food and resin should never share moulds.
Frequently asked questions
Epoxy or UV resin for ornaments?
UV resin is quick for small, thin ornaments. Epoxy suits larger or thicker pieces and big batches.
Will resin ornaments break if they fall?
Thin pieces can chip on hard floors. Slightly thicker ornaments are more durable.
