🤣 sorry, I have a video where I show this step. The gold is added to the silicon mold. You can also mix it into the cement mix with the mica powder... but for best results add on mold.
@@ksentials4442 Hi, there. The final result looks so smooth. I never seen a cement piece look like that. And I have seen a lot videos like yours. What do you think is the key for that? Thanks.
Could you give me some advice? I’ve began making tester jars and I made a brown slightly darker than yours and it isn’t as smooth. The it has a ashy tint to it . Also, I just demoulded another one this morning and the color is darker in some areas. When mixing my pigment, cement and sand I make sure to mix dry first and then to a pancake consistency when adding the water. I’m losing my crap 🥹
Could you tell us where you got the moulds that you use in the video please? They are lovely, and I am wanting something with support while they are drying.
Hi, these came with the molds. I purchased them at The Modern Craft Lab. Not every mold brings a support, however, I do find it practical since concrete expands during the drying process. The additional support helps maintain a consistent shape.
@@ksentials4442The concrete, the color, the size of the mold, you got me right after the peel of the silicone 😂😝 KEEP DOING YOU!!! If you don't mind me asking how much do they hold?
I tried making similar jars with silicone molds, how long do you let the cement cure for before removing it from the mold? Mines tend to crack not sure if it is the type of cement I purchased. Great jobs one your molds they look very nicely done and would look beautiful as a decor piece ❤
Hi Yaniris, Thank you sooo much for your feedback. ✨ I typically de-mold within 4-6 hours of casting the molds. Since the cement tends to sweat during the curing process I like to get them out of the mold ASAP. What brand are you using? I'm currently working with Cement All and it has been great! I have also found that the amount and type of water maters. Try using distilled water. I live in florida, and have used both sink and distilled water to cast my molds. Both have worked great. I hope this info was helpful. Let me know how it goes.
Thank you so much for your tips and information. I will try switching the cement, I have a feeling it is not great my mold tend to crack as I am taking them out. Sometimes they are uneven and have air bubbles. I do tap down and try shaking it to get bubbles out. Most likely it is the cement. Thank you again for your help and videos☺🤗
Hi Tina, I added gold leaf to the silicone molds. Here's a video I created showing how I add the gold leaf to the molds, while the molds are different, the process is the same. Check it out! ua-cam.com/video/bbujcs41vJQ/v-deo.html
Hi, thank you for this amazing content. I’ve been testing so many different wicks in my 3in tulip but none are working. I tested ECO 6-14, CD 6-20, LX22 & 24, Premiere 770-799 and HTP 104, 105, 121, 126. Do you have any suggestions?
Hi sorry new to this communication so not sure if I am out of bounds by responding to your question. Try CDN wicks #6,7,8 I was like you until I found these wicks. Works perfect for my 3inc ceramic jars. Cheers

Hi! Thanks for clarifying. Many crafters confuse the two. I'm glad you know the difference. The coloring process will work on either cement or concrete.
Why didn’t she show when she placed the gold leaves? I was waiting for that specific moment lol 😂

Lovely jars! How did you get the gold leaf inside the mold before pouring the cement? Love that effect!
You put the leaf in the silicone mold before you pour
Does MICA work? And why did you add the first chemical to it? Just got into making Candles and decided to make my own Unique containers.
so beautiful!! Thank you.
Thank you!!!

These are specifically for cement use
Good morning do you seal your jars outside.
Yes, but only the bottom of the vessel, where the warming label would go
Great video! Where can I get the mold covers that u use on the outside. And are they necessary for every mold? Ty so much.

@@ksentials4442 thank you for responding. Truly appreciate it.
What are you using to seal? Thank you in advance
Hi Tasha,
I use a water base preserve /sealer. Check out my last eat video to see how I seal my jars.
Hi. Any powder Mica mark can be use it? Thanks
Preferably one specialized for concrete to get the best results.
Hi, what do you use to seal your jars?
Hi Vicky, right now im using the water base sealer from Earth Safe Finishes.
Is it the same as used in resin
The one I'm using is cement/concrete grade from direct colors

Hi!
I use Cement all, Rapid Set
Is that gold foil
Yes, it is!
Como colocou o detalhe de ouro???

I'm using cement all, it's a quick dry blend. I purchased muñe at Home Depot.

Not sure, the pigment mica I use is for cement/ concrete grade. It's from direct color
Is this made using white cement?
Yes, white 👍
Muito liindo seu trabalho, parabéns
HI what is source to get the moulds
Thanks
Hi!! I purchase mine from modern craft.
What do you use? It would be helpful if you wrote the name in English
Hi!!! I do write the info in English 😊 maybe you need to adjust language settings on you tube... just a thought. Let me know what you need and I can respond here :)
Thats not concrete... its cement
Hi! Thanks for clarifying. Many crafters confuse the two. I'm glad you know the difference.
The coloring process will work on either cement or concrete.
@@ksentials4442 if you put some sand will be more durable. Only cement its not the best option.:)
Thank you so much for sharing. I'll give it a try.
So you don’t measure anything?
Yes, measurements are appear in video, lower left corner.
