I purchased a mold from Amazon and watched your video, My mold is head of a little boy and this video help me so much now I can start my project is for my classroom . Thank you
Your video is just right, no hems and ahhs or giggling etc from going live. I really appreciate that. I have now subscribed and look forward to watching your other videos. Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much! I appreciate you watching and subscribing!
This is great. It would be great to recreate and test this with the more expensive molds that are out there. I am sure, if done right, it is much more cost effective. Great job! Love it!
Yes! Agreed! Thank you!
This is so awesome! Thank you!
You are very welcome!
Thank you! This was soooo awesome!
Absolutely! Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much for sharing! I’m excited to give it a try!
Absolutely!
Whenever doing a mix of part A and part B. You should always put part B first, and part A on top. Not sure why. But that is what I have been told by different companies.
That is interesting. I was following the instructions on the product doing A and then B. But if it works better for you definitely keep doing it that way :)
Very good info here. Love the reuse of old stuff
Thank you!! 🙏
Very cool process!
Thank you!
Great I’ve never seen a tutorial worth silicone gel!
Glad you liked it!
Nice video, probably one of the first to actually do this! Thanks 😊
Absolutely! Thanks for watching :)
I agree with Jasmine and want to add your hair is really pretty!
Aw you all are very sweet! Thank you so much ❤️❤️
Great video, it has been very useful, thank you. You have a very good style of presenting, easy to watch and listen too
Thank you!
Very great job done, thanks a lot dear. Can the silicon mould gel be gotten on the market?
Great video
Thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Good video. Question though. After using my silicone pot mold three times for my wax luminaries I started to get lines on the outside of my wax afterI demolded them all the way down. Any way to prevent that? I’m pouring into a warmed up mold. Not sure if you’ve personally used them for this purpose.
Thank you very much for this demo and for your your advice during it. I wonder if it's possible to make a mold of a container with a handle e.g. a tea cup.
That would be a cool project! The handle would need to be thick so it doesn't break easy but that sounds really nice!
This was the best video of a silicone how to I’ve ever watched! Thanks for taking the time to share. I’m stoked to try with a shaped cup I have
Absolutely! Thanks so much for watching :)
Nice
Thank you!
Thank you so much for a great video. Is there a way of estimating how much silicone gel you will need so you dont make too little or too much?
Hi! Thanks for watching! When making my own mold I've been eyeballing it since it is a new container. You could try to fill the area with water and then measure how much water fit in the area to help estimate how much silicone you need :)
Great video thank you so much!!! Would you say that it is durable like other more expensive molds? Like 300 uses as an example? Thank you Kayla for all the videos and your content!:)
Absolutely! These will last very long :) thanks for watching!
If i want to car mold, will the car sit or be turn upside down
What would you use to seal the inside and outside of the concrete vessels?
Hi! I actually just did a video today -
th-cam.com/video/91bsZAgU8yo/w-d-xo.html :)
how do u clean the bowl with the concrect in it? and how since it is so stained when u use it stuff dosent come of into the new batch
I let it dry a bit after using it and then the concrete just pops up as I fold the bowl left and right. I found this to be the best and get out most of the concrete. I don't ever have any issue with anything getting into my new batch if I do it this way :)
If I am doing a few different colors in one go (ex one black, one blue, one white) I'll do white first, then blue, then black so the colors get darker as I go and they won't affect the next color. Hope that helps!
Hello! I've been crafting silicone molds for my customers and noticed varying behaviors in the same brand of siliconeI use platinum based silicon. While previous curing times difered-ranging from 24 hours to as little as 3 hours-they never affected the resin outcome until now. Recently, when the silicone cured within 3 hours and I poured resin into it, the silicon lost its shine upon removal of resin from the mold. This unexpected issue has me deeply concerned. Any guidance you could provide would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Would I be able to use this silicone over real food to make molds out of them for wax melts?
I believe so as long as it's pretty solid :)
Could you use a dremell
I haven't tried a dremell on the containers yet. But you can try! :)
No longer on Amazon, link to site is dead. Can you recommend a quality alternative?
Yes! Thank you for letting me know! I have used this as an alternative and it works great amzn.to/3YQwZsS . I hope that helps!
I love the idea and wanted to buy this but it’s out of stock :(

@@melissarossa8188 oh no that's so strange! I'll reach out to the company. Thank you!

Thank you for letting me know! I have used this as an alternative and it works great amzn.to/3YQwZsS . I hope that helps!
wouldnt it go down in the hole?
No the Wick Stickers I use keep the wax from seeping out. I also put a label on the bottom as well
Good video, very helpful. But please please please stop with the horrible background music. It is distracting when your talking and no offense against you but the choice of music is horrible…. Idk what it’s called, it used to be called techno.
Lol thank you for the feedback
