- Hello, Making your own moulds is easier than you think. You can make a mould out of most things and then cast them to make great copies. In this video I show how to make a silicone mould using a plant pot so that you can cast with resin or cement.

👈gone to look for pots to mold😂thank you Steve,I love it
LOL have fun Mamie, I am doing the same
Please can you show us all how to make a silicone mould of a hollow 3D round Christmas bauble.
So we can make clear resin Christmas hang baubles.
Hi Christine, that is a difficult one, I can certainly look into how would be the best way to make one, it would be getting it out of the mould that I think would be difficult
wth Steve...I was just staring at my plant vase thinking if it was too thin or not and boom I scroll and you've created one!!
LOL it was meant to be
I love all the character it has!
Thank you Meaghan
Love the colour you've used to paint the pot ❤
Thank you Dawn, these iridescent paints are soooooo great to work with
Love this! Haven't tried any mold making yet, but I appreciate the step by step so I feel more confident that I can do it. Thank you Steve!!
You are so welcome Christina, I have a few more videos on this in a playlist on the other channel that might also help
Absolutely beautiful! I’m trying to pluck up the courage to make my own! You do make it look easier than I thought it would be. Thank you. 👍☺️
thank you Sue, honestly, it is as easy as I make it look. Just follow the steps and you will be fine. I was exactly the same before my first mould, so pleased I took the plunge
Love stuff about mold making. I have lots of pots and plates with mold making in mind. Thanks, Steve.
Me too, I keep the yogurt types to save buying mixing pots and the cats sweetie tubs, chocolate tray inners, I even saved 3 sheets of polystyrene!
thanks Pam, I will be adding more mould making videos to this channel. 😍
LOl you sound just like me, I keep everything that could come in handy somewhere for crafting
I love my Christmas cactus plants
Me too mate and they are so easy to grow and have amazing flowers on them
Christmas cactus 🌵 in the Chinese Bonsai planter , what will you think of next?
LOL Patty.
Great video would you consider sharing your Bonsai trees and how you take care of them. I would be fascinated
Hi Christina, happy to do that. In the spring I will do a video on them. They are all a little dormant at the moment
The "faux"-bonsai-pot :-) is just wonderful...and the splintered corner actually looks quite authentic and reminds me of japanese Kintsugi...
Thank you Monique
Looking forward to the resin pour test on this. Thank you.
Thank you. I have made about ten pots from this mould now. some using PU resin as well. I am do pleased I made this mould
Thank you lovely i will defo be trying this then i will be buying you a coffee thank youx GOD BLESS XX
Thank you Tracey, I really appreciate that
It looks quite lovely and the Christmas cactus looks great in it !
Thanks so much 😊 I do love taking the cuttings off these and growing them. They make lovely little surprise gifts when visiting people
@@SteveMcDonaldCrafting what a lovely idea !
I totally loved this video and the step by step was very helpful, I've bought the stuff to make molds and now thanks to you i know how to make one, if your going to make any more molds please can you post how to cause it saves a hell of alot money. Thankyou for your help
Hi Sharon, I am so pleased to have inspired you to make moulds, they are great fun. I have a couple of moulds planned. Will definitely record them and go through step by step how I make them. thank you for your support and encouragement, it is really appreciated.
Very cool..
Thank you Clifford
Great idea, pots can get very expensive. Love the one you made.
I always look forward to your videos!
Thank you Lexipants, I really appreciate you saying that 😍
Beautiful Christmas Cactus!!
Thank you Amanda
That came out really, really well! What a great finish you got on it. I love it in the black. All in all a very, very good result!
Thank you Carly, I really appreciate that
Looks really good :) next one maybe do the corners to look like the one that was broken :) will look good. but that is really gorgeous xx
Great idea Dulce, thanks x
That looks amazing and your personality is so fun!❤
Wonderful mold!!! The little pot came out so nicely.... This video is really right on time, because I've been making my own molds recently. Mine don't always come out as well. I had a piece floated on the last one:( but I'll keep on!!
Some day I'll get better.
Thanks for sharing with us.
Ringy-dingy🔔🔔🦋🦋
My pleasure Dolly. Honestly, the more you make the better they get. I do have disasters as well. I made a mould a few months ago and couldn't work out why it didn't set up. I kept going back to it and it just wouldn't set. I had forgotten to put in the hardener LOL
Very nice Steve
Thank you Sharon
Thank you Thank you thank you for sharing this idea.
I thought i had accidentally been unsubscribed from your channel, but then you mentioned that you had a second channel for resin. Thats the one i am subscribed to already. Thanks for this video, i was looking for a video on what would happen if i used tupperware for casting a silicone mold.
That turned out really great! I love the paint on it! Beautiful!
That looks lovely Steve, my daugh6likes growing Bonsai, I might give that a go :)
Definitely give it a go, we have about 50 Bonsai that are all in the early stages of their lives, hopefully one day they will be beautiful Bonsai
Looks great.
Thanks Mark, hope you are well
Love it...Do you just stick the leaf in dirt or water ?? Thanks for your videos..Take care
Thank you Mary. I just stick the leaf directly into the dirt and keep it watered. About 80% of them grow roots and become plants
Hello, I am really enjoying both your channels content so a big thank you for your time and hard work. The link for the silicone isn’t working, can you let me know where to purchase it. I’m in the UK. Thanks😊
That looks nice.
Can you share the approximate measurments and how much silicone you have used?
I have 1 kg silicone waiting to do something with. I'm thinking about making a mold for toy boats for kids with resin with. But, not sure yet how to do that. Haha
Thank you. I should have made a note of how much I used, I will in future. What I do know is the two mixing pots I used came to a totally of 2 pints. Hope that helps
@@SteveMcDonaldCrafting thanks. It's probably doable with looking at the weight that was in the container before. I think it was ice cream? 👍🏼😊 I'm still not sure what I want to make. I said toy boats. But sunglasses are also still in my mind. How cool would it be to make my own colorful sunglasses. Haha 😎
Love it 😍 will definitely be having a go 🙂
Thank you, have a fun with it. I have made loads now from this mould
Always enjoy your videos, have you come up with a collab idea for us yet??
Thank you Lisa. I am terrible at coming up with Ideas for Collabs, drop me a PM if you have any ideas. Can't wait to collab with you x
Can u try something more complex?
can't get this silicone the site is closed what do you recommend
What brand is this silicone liquid?
What scale do you use?
A digital scale that is designed for the kitchen
@@SteveMcDonaldCrafting Thank you, I have one in the kitchen and another in my craftvan, but the one in the van is one of the old type with a bowl on top, not much use, both are plastic, I quite fancy getting a stainless steel one. I’ll go have a look on Amazon!
next time can you do a silicone mold of a pot plant? lol
LOL, I have got a mould planned of something that you wouldn't think to mould. I hope it works out.
A number of Video cuts, Is any secret?
I make styrofoam molds for concrete bonsai pots you get alot cleaner finish and I get styrofoam for free people never want it
Lots of talking..yet still have no idea what you poured in lol nor measurements🤷♀️
I poured in a silicone mix. The one I used is in the description. I mixed up a pint of the silicone
Please can you show us all how to make a silicone mould of a hollow 3D round Christmas bauble.
So we can make clear resin Christmas hang baubles.
I will have a go
