Create the Dough

Take equal quantities of the Fevicryl Mouldit resin and hardener. In one part, pour some blue and the other pour yellow colour from Fevicryl Carnival Pack, and mix them to make the doughs.

Paint The Background

Take the circular MDF board, which will serve as the backdrop for your magnet. Paint the entire surface of the board with a shade of your choice from the Fevicryl Carnival Pack. Let it dry completely.
