Thanks for your video. It had very clear instructions, which I appreciate. I would have one suggestion. Instead of wasting the UTEE, I've seen people pour it out onto their craft mat and let it harden. Then you can use it again. It's kind of expensive, and this is a way to save money.
I'm really enjoying watching your previous vids. I have no idea how I've missed you before now. I spent a lot of time watching craft vids while I was home sick. Now it's all I want to do ;)
I just checked and you can get what Ranger calls Project Pans for about $8 if you want more than one pan for the Utee melter. That way you can have one for clear or other colors or if you want to store a color for further use. Great video!
@ScrapaholicHere yeah! it's so much fun and you can still use that UTEE even without the melting pot like regular embossing powders (you probably already know this...but just in case you don't already) It makes them look like glass charms
What I would do for the black is drip it onto parchment paper for later use. Then let it cool and it will mostly come out and then heat it up and then turn it off and wipe the excess off. This saves product.
you can buy a teflon mat off ebay, they are the same mats just waaaaay cheaper!! they are mats used in large dehydrators but it is the same exact mats. i use these and they are much cheaper
Hi... If you would have let the melting pot cool completely ~~ would the utee peel right off like it does on the crafting mat... I am interested in purchasing a melting pot and utee ~~ so your vids are quite usefull... I just purchased a lot of these silicone moulds on etsy ~~ and I was going to use glitter hot glue in it...but the utee seems more interesting... TFS... Have a fun winter day... Surie
@JustDahling I wish michaels were closer...it's about 15 min from my house and I'm just too lazy to check out the sale today. Kids party wore me OUT lol
Great video really like the melting pot can you buy it anywhere please? Have been looking for it so far have had no luck! Thank you for sharing!! Liz...
Hi, what about just putting tin foil over the melting pot. It might mean you never have to clean it again. I'm not sure if it would work but let me know. This is the first time I've heart of that stuff, looks fun to play with.
Where did you get the Pewter Rubbing buff stuff and what was it called?? Also did you buff the ruff over poor edges off the broach ? Thank you for a great video.
I'm jus wondering, in this video u wipe all of the liquid, utee out with paper towel. Can't I pour the utee all out on plastic sheet & let that dry to reuse it??...thx
Hi, Keesha- I've just started using my melt pot and utee, am learning lots. Yes, you can pour the utee out onto a craft sheet and put it in a plastic bag when it hardens, and remelt it. I've also remelted and reused a lot of my molded pieces that weren't just the way I wanted them.
@rosiecooper1261 Ranger has posted some really good videos on how to use their products. That's where I first learned about it with Susie...uh forgot her last name...lady who developed this product.
@KINDERKRAFTS unfortunately no. You would think so...but doesn't work that way. You have to wipe it out after every use if you are changing colors. If you are using the same color, you can leave it in there and just let it remelt next time.
You're a fantastic presenter! Very clearly spoken, no beating around the bush, easy to watch. Just wish the lighting was better.

Love how all this turned out. I haven't seen any videos with the utee. Now I know what it does. Thanks Rosie

I bought all of the utee yesterday:) now I need to invest in the melting pot! great tutorial..
@ScrapaholicHere yeah! it's so much fun and you can still use that UTEE even without the melting pot like regular embossing powders (you probably already know this...but just in case you don't already) It makes them look like glass charms
Could you make a video showing how to make the silicone molds and what materials that are needed too. Thanks so much!!
man, I wish Ranger would bring back the melting pot! it sure seems like an awesome tool

I haven't really had any as long as I don't mix like crazy. gentle stir or use toothpick to pop the few bubbles.
WOW you were here 6 months ago!!! lol there are some molds on etsy silicone molds.

Have a fun winter day...
Surie
really cool. love the cameo plates i love using my buttons to make molds. tfs
I've purchased off blitsy. Link is above in the video description box. However, they aren't selling it this week. Keep your eye out and it'll be back.
@JustDahling I wish michaels were closer...it's about 15 min from my house and I'm just too lazy to check out the sale today. Kids party wore me OUT lol
what you can also do is buy the big jar of clear for eleven dollars and mix with ur other colors. so you use less of the colors and they last longer.
Great video really like the melting pot can you buy it anywhere please? Have been looking for it so far have had no luck! Thank you for sharing!! Liz...
you can also buy more work trays and just pop the new tray in.
you should pour it out on your non stick teflon mat that way you can remelt it instead of wasting it.

This was a great tutorial. TFS

Fabulous tutorial.Thank you for showing:)
Looks really messy, but really fun! I think I may have to go get one today at Michaels with my 50% off coupon.
Really enjoy this video! Once again great idea's you give thank you for sharing! God Bless ! Elizabeth x
Great Tutorial - Where do I get the 'stuff' to make my own moulds please?
Hi...do you know wich glue is the best to use for utee?I didn,t have good experiences with the glues i have use until now...
I'm jus wondering, in this video u wipe all of the liquid, utee out with paper towel. Can't I pour the utee all out on plastic sheet & let that dry to reuse it??...thx

Keesha Snider. That was my thought exactly...it seemed such a waste to wipe it all away.
I have played with it for a while now since this comment and YES you can!! It's so awesome you can reuse it all! Mary Hansen
exactly what I'm finally about to order! thx!
Wish we had Michaels in the UK! Any other shops that are the same?
@rosiecooper1261 Ranger has posted some really good videos on how to use their products. That's where I first learned about it with Susie...uh forgot her last name...lady who developed this product.
Beautiful! Thank you for sharing :)
The last video I watched showed the lady peeling the leftover UTEE out after the pot was cooled.
Thank you can you tell how you made your Moulds please?
@KINDERKRAFTS unfortunately no. You would think so...but doesn't work that way. You have to wipe it out after every use if you are changing colors. If you are using the same color, you can leave it in there and just let it remelt next time.
Great tut. TFS
why not just use aluminum foil to line the melting pot before using it?
that's how I got addicted to YT as well :)
Is this stuff basically plastic?
can u melt plastic pony beads in the melting pot
Is it like wax? or plastic?
Can you sand or file the edges to refine the line?
Hi, Sharon- Yesterday I tried an emery board to smooth edges, and it worked great.
Very nice!!!!
I wish I had a michaels 15 min from my house. Our closest one is 4 hours!! ;P
@2tinytreasures Same here, my closest Michaels is 20 minutes. I'm dragging my husband with me because I hate shopping alone.
