11 Fall Resin Crafting Ideas
These are some creative resin crafting ideas for fall that let you play with rich autumn colors and seasonal details in a fun new way. Epoxy resin and UV resin is especially pretty with dried leaves and flowers since the clear finish lets their natural colors and shapes show through. Fall colors can also be mixed into resin for pieces inspired by changing leaves and the season. You can use these ideas as inspiration for handmade decorations and thoughtful gifts that feel right for autumn.
One thing I really like about resin crafting is how much personality you can add to each project. Your finished piece can reflect the colors and little details you love most about fall, so it feels personal instead of something picked from a store shelf. If you are still learning to work with resin, starting with a simple project can help you get familiar with measuring, mixing, pouring, and curing it. Once you understand those basics, it becomes much easier to choose a fall project that matches what you want to create.
Fall Resin Crafting Ideas
1. Fall Leaf Resin Coasters
Fall leaf resin coasters are such a pretty way to preserve colorful autumn leaves and turn them into something you can actually use. Place fully dried leaves into clear resin to show off their natural colors and details. All you need for this is some silicone coaster molds, dried leaves and some gold leaf accents.
2. Autumn Resin Pumpkin
This pumpkin shaped resin mold is such a cute find for fall crafting. Fill it with resin in your favorite autumn colors. Then you can add dried flowers, gold leaf, glitter, or other small details to make your pumpkin completely your own.
3. Fall Flower Trinket Dish
Did you know that you can use polymer clay and UV resin together? Use polymer clay to shape the base of this fall flower trinket dish. Then decorate it with pieces cut from fall themed napkins. Look for napkins with small flowers, leaves, pumpkins, or other designs that will fit nicely inside the dish. Once the decorations are in place, cover the surface with UV resin to give it a clear, glossy finish.
4. Fall Landscape Magnets
For these fall domino magnets, start with domino blanks. Use acrylic paint to add simple autumn designs like colorful trees, leaves, or pumpkins. Once the paint is completely dry, add a coat of UV resin over the front to give each piece a smooth, shiny finish. Add a small magnet to the back and they are ready for the fridge or gifting. I have a really easy tutorial on how to make resin magnets.
5. Cute Fall Leaf Embeds
I found an amazing Etsy shop with some of the cutest epoxy resin embeds, including these tiny fall leaves. Add them to clear resin for earrings, pendants, keychains, coasters, or other small projects when you want autumn details without having to make each leaf yourself. These would look so good in resin trays too.
6. Epoxy Resin Tumbler
A fall themed resin tumbler looks gorgeous with dark brown glitter and color changing powders that give it extra depth and shimmer. The shifting colors catch the light beautifully and can give the finished tumbler rich copper, bronze, amber, and chocolate tones.
7. Pumpkin Jar
I found some pumpkin jar molds perfect for fall, and they would look so pretty as part of a fall centerpiece. You can make the resin pumpkins in warm amber, brown, orange, or cream tones, then add dried flowers, gold flakes, or fall embeds for extra detail. The finished jars can hold small wrapped treats, jewelry, or little craft supplies while adding a handmade touch to your fall decor.
8. UV Gel Polish Set
Did you know you can use UV gel nail polish to make fall resin creations? Cat eye gel is especially fun because the magnetic shimmer shifts and changes as the light hits it from different angles. Try fall shades like copper, bronze, deep red, or golden brown on resin pendants, earrings, charms, or domino pieces. Brush it over cured resin pieces to add fall color, or use it to paint small details before adding a clear resin topcoat. With cat eye gel, hold the magnet near the uncured polish to move the shimmer into lines, waves, or glowing spots, then cure it once you like the look. Just remember you will need a cure lamp to cure it, just like UV resin.
9. Fall Resin Ring
Pick up some ring blanks on Amazon along with tiny gold leaf craft embeds to make these pretty fall rings. Paint the center of the ring blank in a rich fall color, then attach the leaf with a small amount of craft glue. Once everything is completely dry, cover the center with UV doming resin for that thick, glossy finish.
10. Cute Sunflower Embeds
These cute sunflower embeds I found on Etsy are such a pretty detail for fall resin crafts, especially with their golden yellow petals and warm brown centers. They are small enough to tuck inside resin earrings, pendants, rings, keychains, bookmarks, or trinket dishes without covering the whole design. Pair them with amber resin, gold flakes, dried leaves, or deep brown tones for a beautiful autumn look. You can also use a single sunflower as the main detail in a smaller piece, which makes the flower stand out under clear resin.
11. Maple Leaf Dish
I found this maple leaf resin mold on Amazon, and there are so many pretty fall color combinations you could try with it. I especially love the idea of black and gold resin swirled together for a dramatic marbled look that shows off the shape and veins of the leaf.
Thanks so much for reading! I hope you found a few fall resin craft ideas you are excited to try. What is your favorite fall thing to make with epoxy or UV resin? I would love to hear what you are creating this season.
