i am embedding some dried flowers into a stool top

the plan is to do it in two stages
first stage will be just to affix the arrangement of dried flowers to the stool
top using a light application of resin as a glue

second stage will be to fill in the remaining space

my initial thoughts are how to salvage a bad pour
my answer
i made those bubbles on purpose to add depth and give it a more 3d look

managing perception
not sure if it will work though
