Review on Silicone Casting Jewelry Container Handcraft by Hannah Curi

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I LOVE that I can make my own glasses (although bubbles are hard to pull out)

I've always wanted to make my own glasses. When I make my own essential oil lotions and creams, I love having a special gift jar for my family. That's exactly what I wanted. HOW IT WORKS It consists of two parts. Both seemed stable and not deformed. HOW TO USE I forgot to spray my mold with release spray so I was very nervous making it. I used a resin that takes 3-4 days to cure which was driving me crazy waiting. As you can see, it turned out great. I had no trouble getting the glass pieces out. BLADDER The only problem I had was blisters. I couldn't get them deep out of the mold no matter how hard I tried, even if I only partially filled them and worked on the bubbles. The more you pour, the more bubbles appear. It didn't ruin the glass, it just appeared on some of the screws on the lugs etc. CURING TIME My resin was a long cure resin and this glass was ready in 3 days. With a faster pitch it would be faster. That's why I ran so many paints - too much time in resin. I had never worked with it before and had no idea it would take so long to mix. ARE THE PARTS SUITABLE? Cream. CONCLUSION It's fantastic for making your own cream jars. It's also good for spice mixes or other things you want to store indoors. You will likely need a cap liner. MY RATING FIVE STARS. Despite the bladder issues, I still love it.
