I am always on the lookout for Silicone Molds to use with EasyCast®. To my surprise, when visiting my mom this week, I found she had bought a great silicone mold, that would be perfect for coasters, ornaments and more...
With the holidays right around the corner, for today's project, I decided to create a glittery snowflake Christmas ornament.
Materials:
- EasyCast®
- Silicone mold
- Snowflakes
- Glitter, ultra-fine
- Mixing cups
- Stir sticks
- Toothpick
- Lighter
- Drill
- Eye pin
- Ribbon
- Craft glue
Measure out equal amounts of part A and part B, stir together for 2 minutes. Pour into a second mixing cup and stir for another minute.
Add a bit of glitter.
Pour into the mold.
Use a lighter to remove air bubbles if needed. Set aside to dry for 8 - 12 hours.
Mix together 1 ounce of the EasyCast®, as directed above.
Pour a small amount of the mixture into the mold, over the dried glittered resin.
Use a toothpick to place the snowflakes into the resin.
Arrange them in the mold. Set aside to dry for 24 hours.
Drill a small hole at the top of the ornament. Glue a piece of ribbon into the hole to create a hanger. Enjoy!!
Great idea and it makes a great ornament!
