Making Molds From Mold-N-Pour...


Mold-n-Pour comes in two small containers ready to be mixed. Have your piece to be molded ready to go!

Pull two equal pieces from each container. Just eyeball the amounts and try to get them as close as you can.

Mix them together by kneading just like you would dough. You have some open time with this but don't overdo it. It only takes about 30 seconds to combine both colors.

See!? Both colors are now one. You shouldn't be able to see any of the white or lavender, it should be the same shade throughout.

Now place your piece to be molded, in this case a brass bee, on top of your ball.

Press firmly from the top...

...until your piece is embedded into the ball. Tip! Make sure the silicone doesn't come up over the edges of your piece. You want to gently push the material around so you will be able to remove the brass bee without any overlap. Now leave it in place while the silicone solidifies.

About 10 minutes later, sometimes less if your in a warm room, you can pull out your brass bee. Here he comes!

Voila! You have a perfect bee mold or whatever you want to put in there. These can be made for use with soap, paperclay, polymer clay, ultra thick embossing powders, resin, and many more. These can also be used for food products like butter or chocolates but REMEMBER if you intend to use your mold for food DO NOT USE IT FOR CRAFT.  Keep a mold just for food stuffs! Have fun!
