Thank you for such a wonderful comment. Hope you give it a try and have fun. TFW Misty

Glad I could help! Have fun with your moulds :)

I agree 100%. Everytime I thought "I wonder...?" she'd answer my question on the video within a minute! She covered everything. Excellent video and I'm now a subscriber. ❤

Me too

Glad it was helpful! :)

Very LIGHTLY dust the silicone molds with a very thin layer of CORNSTARCH before you use the air dry clay. Use a cheap fluffy make-up eye shadow blending brush to apply the cornstarch. Then once it is dusted, remove any excess cornstarch by tipping over the mold and lightly tapping or even just blowing on the mold so that there is no extra within the cavity. You can then insert little balls of the air dray clay in the mold and press it firmly down into all the nooks and crannies. Just keep adding clay until it is full and tightly packed. A "sculpting ball tool" will help you really get all the details of the mold. To De-Mold the air dry clay, lightly press in on the sides of the mold, go 360 degrees around the edge.....you will see a tiny bit of separation of the clay from around the edges. Once it is separated from the edges, then you can tip in over and gently ease out your air dry clay. Hope this helps! ~ Christy ~ Here's a link to the tool I mentioned above: www.amazon.com/Styluses-Painting-Modeling-Embossing-ABenkle/dp/B07QFRD6SQ/ref=d_pd_sbs_sccl_3_1/142-7519589-1445365?pd_rd_w=6mxjn&content-id=amzn1.sym.7a9b9953-4675-430a-a4f6-ea3f74308c2f&pf_rd_p=7a9b9953-4675-430a-a4f6-ea3f74308c2f&pf_rd_r=JM68JP2N5X1EMJAQ8F5R&pd_rd_wg=p84mW&pd_rd_r=1f2cb087-e97b-4d25-93e5-b84808b51988&pd_rd_i=B07QFRD6SQ&th=1

Thank you!

First time watching. Thank you for sharing. Just getting into the molds.

Hello! Could you tell me what kind of molded air dry clay do you use? Thank you!

What is the name of the stuff......& ....where to purchase.

You are so welcome!

Glad you enjoyed it!

I was thinking the same thing! ☺️ they should work add inserts right? 🤔

Hi!! how did it go?

With the thicker moulds, do you think it’s possible to use a hairdryer over the moulds to speed up drying time? Like leave the moulds for 24 hours then use a blow dryer to help get the thicker areas to dry? Just wondering. The great thing about using air dry/ paper clay is that the object can be removed right away and can be glued onto a tin, a jar, wood, etc when wet. The down side is that they dry hard so have to be used right away if you’re adding to a round object.

Yes it’s paintable. The caulk I used says paintable right on the tube, it’s by Dap. TFW - Misty

Thanks for the sub!

Thank you. Here is an Amazon link to the one with the palm trees. www.amazon.com/PRIMA-MARKETING-SURFBOARD-MOULD-3-5X4-5/dp/B084QBWY9L/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2GR9HT28QFD6V&keywords=prima+molds+surfboard&qid=1672438899&sprefix=prima+molds+surfboard+%2Caps%2C130&sr=8-1

@@ziggy13mity1 Oh gosh, Thank you. I had looked all over Amazon, guess I was searching under the wrong credentials. Much appreciated!

Fabritac is a pretty good glue for slicker surfaces like caulking.

I just squeeze, but they make caulking guns you can get at the hardware stores, online or Walmart. Tfw

I’m not sure how it would react to continuous heat

Here is the link to the lace mold - www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XFT691M/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

They are going strong, the same as the day I took them out of the mold.

@@ziggy13mity1 Awesome… thank you for responding!

I have used ink, and pre coloring will work too just use reinkers or very little paint because you can change the product and then it won’t cure right. If you want to paint, You would also need to lightly scuff the surface and prep with gesso then you can paint with any acrylics. Hope all this helps.

@@ziggy13mity1 Yes Ty I really appreciate that 🤞I hope it works out for me.

Not yet, thanks for the suggestion 😁

It sounds like you need to put more material and really push it in, push then scrap, then add more and repeat. You would be surprised how much can fit into the deeper moulds. Also make sure you give it several days to dry cause if not it can distort slightly too when pulling out.

You can use them on anything altered, cards, dimensional scrapbooking pages, they are pretty lightweight. Have fun :)

No oil, it’s a generic unscented brand from walmart

I love the caulking, especially for the lace and doilies. For painting you can try this: I have used ink, and pre coloring will work too just use reinkers or very little paint because you can change the product and then it won’t cure right. If you want to use paint, You would also need to lightly scuff the surface and prep with gesso then you can paint with any acrylics. Hope all this helps. Tfw

@@ziggy13mity1Great tips - thanks again!

I used an old toothbrush to clean in the nooks and crannies of anything that was left behind, you do not need water, just dry brushing. Hope this helps. TFW :)

Hi, so sorry to now just see your comment. Here is the link to the doily mold - www.amazon.com/dp/B077QGJK3T/?coliid=I3ET5CTZ00O41S&colid=J7QQUUXRJ1RZ&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it. - tfw, Misty

@@ziggy13mity1 thank you!!

Very helpful. Do you know what glue to use for outdoor (rainy Ireland) application.

So it doesn’t stick into the molds and most molds will be way thicker than than if you are using caulk to seal something. That drying time is for a very thin smeared layer sticking to a seam rather than something you are trying to keep intact and remove. I hope this helps. TFW - Misty

Oh wow, great idea. Thanks for sharing, will check out his channel. You do some serious molding, but I bet they are pretty. TFW Misty

I never even noticed it, her video is that good. Normally, the music drives me nuts.

Be kind. No need to call this material garbage. It obviously works for her.
