In recent years, it has taken a prominent place at the heart of creative hobbies for both amateurs and professionals around the world—and for good reason: it makes it possible to bring unique creations to life.

Jo Nagasaka is a Japanese designer whose signature style is simplicity and minimalism. This is clearly reflected in these tables coated with colored epoxy resin. He creates smooth surfaces by simply pouring the resin onto the wood. Because the density and depth of the wood vary across the surface, the color intensity changes from one area to another, producing a unique and nuanced visual effect.

Custom epoxy resin tumblers are a very fun DIY project. These tumblers are extremely popular right now—simply because they are endlessly customizable. That said, be aware that this type of project can take some time. There are several layers to apply, and therefore multiple drying times to consider. If you decide to get started, plan for several days to complete the project!
