This video may be 3 years old, but it's given me ideas on how to make some other molds!❤ Ty for the ideas

What a fantastic idea. I need to make a money box plug for a mosaic piece. This method might be just what I'm looking for. Noooo, don't stop showing us. I need all the help I can get. I'm loving your videos. 😄

Julie, if you'll put that board on a turntable it'll make it easy to go around the not-so-easy areas to get to with the gun. You can get inexpensive plastic ones by Wilton, for cake decorating. I also use them when I'm painting a large piece (I'm a china painter) and can't really handle it with my hands. It makes it so much easier to just turn the wheel.

You would not believe how much you have helped my mental situation during this intensely stressful time. Thank you from the bottom of my soul.🤗

I ran out to buy two tubes of silicone and a caulking gun after watching this 😀. I live in New Delhi, India. It's no joke trying to find these in crowded little side street hardware shops where I had to keep replaying your video because no one understood a word I was saying! 😂😂😂. Don't worry, I had my mask on and sanitizer in hand. You should've been with me Julie. I'm sure you would have had quite a few laughs as I did. And......found them! Hurrah!

At Home Depot you can get a squeeze tube of silicone so you don’t have to use the caulking gun. It takes a lot of practice with the caulking gun to pour an even amount of silicone!

I think you did a very good job on these molds. It doesn't look like it is extremely easy to do. I appreciate your willingness to put yourself out there for everything to see. I also appreciate all the tips you give as you go. Thank you for all you do to teach and help everyone.

Super excited to see what you do in these diy molds! Can’t wait 😊

This is perfect. I thought of buying them, but I couldn't find the size I wanted. And this video just made my life easier, I can actually make them, just from watching this. THANK YOOU

Thanks for that Julie, can't wait to see you pour some resin with them.

Once again, WOW! I've been wondering if silicone caulking would work & there you are DOING IT!! Yea, thank you so much for showing it will work! I recently experimented with some 1/8" - 1/4", hard pressed felt, cut-out flower shapes in 4 styles, set of 4 coasters from Dollar Tree during Easter. I used the daisy in a pretty soft lavender color. I filled the petals with a soft gold powder mix, the center with a little darker yellow and then "painted" a light coat of the gold over the top. I put them on a silicone mat and, much to my surprise they came out perfect! Oh so much fun! The "painted" gold just gave enough for the lavender to glow a little beautifully. I love your experimenters soul. I even have come to really appreciate your willingness to show us what didn't work as well as what did...now we know too. Again, Thank you so very much. (I don't fast forward too often - only when I'm anxious about how pretty it's going to be too!)

I just did this over the weekend using silicone on a large piece of plexiglass. They work great! Well done. 👍

Excited to watch you pour in them!

Excellent video Julie! Look forward to your coasters....

I love learning from you. Your voice is very calming and relaxing I’ve really learned a lot from watching your videos . Thankyou

What a great idea to make your own. Love watching your videos

You have surprised me Julie U have learnt such a lot about resin since your first attempt hey. It's so good to see people putting their heart and soul into their work. Good on you.

Thank you so much for sharing this video. I have been trying to figure out how to make a mold, and this is exactly what I needed. Excellent job.

Wow that's amazing. Love this idea and will most definitely give this a try. Thanks for your awesome videos. It helps so much. Hugs!

Thank you so much for showing us how to do this and you are so calm and relaxed..I love listening to you talk.

Thank you for sharing Julie ! 😘

Thanks for this video! I’m definitely going to try this!

I love watching your videos! I learned so much. Thank you❤️

Thanks so much. I'm living in a country in a small town where it seems very hard to find ready molds like these. Have been looking all day with no luck. An just by accident I found your video. Hurray now I can make them myself 🙏

WOO HOO !!! WAY TO GO JULIE !!! YOU DID IT !!! I knew you would figure it out. Now I can't wait to see you use them !!! 🥰 💐🤗💜👏👍💐

Awesome Julie, I may have to look for one of those mats, and have a try myself. Thanks so much for sharing all of this with us.

HI TO THE LADY IN THE VLOG, I Have just Subscribed to your channel I was very impressed with the way you made your own silicone resin molds such a fab idea good on you girl 👍🤗 I have never used resin before & been looking around for Inspiration & you Certainly gave me that thank you I have gone to the bell to Receive any new tutorials you post on u tube I will be looking with much Anticipation at the end Results thank you all the best Lin in South Wales u.k ❤️👍

Way to go girl! Awesome job.

Nice job !!!! Thank you for sharing this !!

Yes 😉😉enjoyed very much this video. thank you for all tips to create a home made silicone molds. 💕💕

This is great information for paint pouring too if you like to pour in shapes like hearts or leaves or whatever! Good to know!!!

Amazing idea , Julie , cheese you are a clever woman

You have great information, and you've helped me so much already! I'm so happy I have found your channel.

As for water removal... you could place the silicone mat on a large cutting board or other stiff item, then just carry the whole thing to the sink to pour out. Or, you could use a pipette or syringe to remove most of the water, then a couple paper towels or microfiber cloth to wipe up the rest. Saves on paper towels.

Awesome job. I just made a flower coaster on a scrap piece of silicone. I've been wanting to have a set of coasters that are all in one mould. I have everything ready too.

can hardly wait for the next one👍👍👏👏👏

Thank you for showing me this.

I’ve been looking for some silicone molds for awhile and the other day at bigW I found the mat. Was rather funny to come across this video today as it was exactly what I was planning to do with it.

This is exactly how I made my big molds. Well done Julie!

You designed very good molds!! Thank you for sharing

Great job! I’m going to make a few now! Plus… I want to make a binge one for a tray mold!

Thanks for sharing. Your work is amazing!

Thank you so much I've recently purchased the silicon but was not sure on the next steps.

Im going to try this way as soon as i get more silicone sheets

I think I saw a video of someone testing food coloring in resin. If I remember correctly, I think it made translucent colors and it did not interfere in the resin hardening. I can not remember who did it, as it was a good while back. Seeing her pull out the food color made me remember it. I have made molds using 100 percent silicone and it works quite well. I always use the silicone to seal edges of mold boxes. The mold material lets go really easily. I love watching Julie's video's -- especially when she shows us the birds in her back yard. Such a nice treat when she does that. Thank you.

You'll love the dremel tool. I use mine for evrything. I love it.

Excellent idea. Thanks!

You are inspiring! Thank you, Gilly!

Awesome! I'm going to do the design in paper and put it under the silicone mat.

Love your videos, so interesting

I admire your diligence. I’ve been watching your resin journey and you are starting to see amazing results. I’m so happy for you. Never give up eh?🥰

Incredible works, I love it!

Thank you Julia👍 it's exactly I seekng for, the way to get a mold for the panno!💟😍😍

Thank you so much for sharing this Julie! I am off to buy them and make some. Have not tried resin yet and am very anxious!

I’ve made my own as well - pretty much exactly how you’re doing it.

Thanks for sharing this It’s very useful

Lovelovelove! Thanku 4 the fantastik tutorial n helpful tips! ♥️

Thank you for your teaching

Great work

Wonderful thank you.

Thank you so much for your good video😍❤️🙏

Great video. Very informative.

Muito obrigada pelo vídeo,me ajudou muito 🥰🚀✨

Amei o vídeo. Thank you so much. It's so clearly your explication. Valeu

감사합니다 꼭 해볼께요 😍

I love it ! I will test 😉

amazing

I’ve done this on a larger scale. Will try coaster size. Thanks for sharing 😁👍

Love this idea. Have you ever tried using a silicon egg ring as the internal edge? For getting the inner mold clean. The top edge of the coaster or bottom edge of the mold.

So cute!

I m very happy to meet your channel

You could try putting the silicone in a piping bag and doing it that way. Would get more detailed edges

Might want to try using thin or smaller lines of caulking then make layers to get height. I think it helps alot you have more control and can do a bit more detail. I let the first line pretty much dry then next line on top. Use a plastic spoon and water to smooth the layer seems. I have never use baby oil instead of water but I think it would work. Any way just thought for you. Thanks so much for your videos. I think you are very brave, let everyone watch you first attempt at what ever, very cool!

I made these last night. Thanks for the tutorial. I noticed this am that I did get some silicone inside the ring in places and some where I wiped it away yesterday but it left a smear thus taking the shine away. Do you know how I could remove them?

Thank you so much!!

Loved this video, very good info! What is the clear sheet you use for holding the resin molds?

I run a bead of hot glue around the outside of the base just in case of leaks.

Splendid x

nice video. Im looking for something I can put my 4" tires in, so I can resin them easy. If I resin tile, will it pop out of these molds easily?

Hi love this can i use this method for a soap mold

Thank you for sharing. Do you have a tutorial how to make the crystal cluster coaster mould please? X

Hi Julie Love your videos I’m extremely new to resin I have done a few coasters n seem to have a oil slick (that’s what it looks like to me) Any hints on what I am doing wrong Kind regards Annette

This is a great video, thank you! I just have a question. were you able to remove the cured resin from the molds without a problem?
