Polymer Clay Video # 9 - how to work with molds




Polymer Clay podcast and TV show

Summary: A great video showing you how to use a mold made from polymer clay. You can mold almost anything, using either scrap clay, or products made especially for moldmaking like Superelasticlay or silicone rubber. For a clay mold you will probably need a mold release- this gets between your clay and your mold and helps the clay to “pop‿ out of the mold, instead of getting stuck in it. You can try cornstarch, powdered pigments, water, or a silicone spray. Enjoy the video- later this week we will release our full-length downloadable tutorial on how to make buttons and pendants, and how to make your own mold.
