LOTS OF TUTORIALS HERE!! All of these projects were made with our Double-Sided Molds. These are well-priced, made from high-quality, shiny silicone. They have a deeper version of our original Large Geometric Mold shapes in the top, and a matching-shaped bangle mold in the bottom.
Each mold comes with a cropping template, clear dust covers, a thorough Maker's Guide, and wet-dry sandpaper to get rid of any sharp edges or bumps.

WILL MY MOLD FIT?
ALCOHOL INKS
Here's what you'll need...
Use the guide that comes with these molds to size your strips.
For these bangles and sun catchers, attach a sheet of Clear Photo Film to a stiff board (cardboard, a clipboard, or other white surface), prop it up at an angle and squeeze your inks at the top of the sheet, allowing them to run down. For distinct colors, let each one dry before adding the next color. You can tip the sheet different ways to get all kinds of rivulet patterns, and try dripping pure alcohol in spots to create more intricate looks. CLICK HERE for alcohol ink recommendations. Have fun experimenting!
AND MORE....
Here's one you can make 2 different ways - either print graphics on our Clear Photo Film and paint white acrylic paint on the back so the images are opaque, or just arrange stickers on a strip of clear plastic, or a piece of clear packing tape. I mixed a tiny bit of super-fine glitter in my resin to give it a nice sparkle.
PARTIAL FILLING FOR SKINNY BANGLES
You can fill your mold part way if you want to make a skinny bangle, just know you'll need to dome the top edge after demolding. There's another example below of a skinny black and white bangle.
EMBEDDING CANDY IN RESIN
Here's an excerpt from the full video above on casting candies in your resin.

Here's how the top right bracelet looks as it GLOWS IN THE DARK!
More things I've been making with the top sides of these molds:
So much fun, and so versatile! You can cast from 1/8" thick up to 3/4" thick for a variety of looks. You can do a Single pour or lots of different layers for dimension in your pieces.
The best gifts for everyone you know!
