In this video, I’ll show you how to create a beautiful glass cactus art piece using crushed glass, resin, and a simple canvas! This beginner-friendly mixed media project uses multiple shades of green glass to create depth, dimension, and sparkle without complicated painting techniques.

We’ll walk step-by-step through sketching the cactus shape, layering Solex, classic green, and reflective green glass, adding handmade glass flowers, mixing resin, and finishing the piece with a glossy resin coat. This is such a fun DIY resin art project for cactus lovers, desert decor fans, and anyone who enjoys creative glass art.
