Beads Resin Molds with Hole for Gemstone Cabochon Jewelry Casting 14-Count

I make custom resin ear plugs and am moving into standard hanging earrings as well and was looking for some assorted bead molds for use with epoxy resin. Received these and all the molds were safely packed to retain their proper shape and the beads they produce are nice and shiny and perfectly shaped! I am not a fan of the faceted and square molds but love the Oval, Sphere and Rondelle shapes and I'm sure my customers will as well! Can be a bit difficult to get any bubbles out from the neck of the mold but the beads are easy enough to remove from the mold with a bit of pushing from the bottom and they seem like they will last a good number of pours. Overall great molds and a great value for the set even if you only use half of them like me!

I loved this set so much that I bought two of them. I use it with resin. The set allows you to make a total of 74 beads with center holes. There are six bead shapes and there is a large and small version of each shape.Being able to make my own beads with custom colours and inlays without worrying about spoiling the bead with a crookedly drilled hole is wonderful.The molds with the smallest openings are the most challenging for me to fill and pop the beads out of but I expect that with practice (and a pipette) I will improve.

I wanted to make one of those sun catchers with chicken wire so I purchased this set of molds and they are perfect for this project.

They work really well! The only troublesome ones are the triangular beads. I would have preferred getting cylinder molds inside of them. They are beasts! But the others come out pretty easily and shiny.

The molds are all very nice, the silicone is sturdy. If you use only one of those little uv flashlights to cure (which I am, until my proper setup arrives), good uv light penetration of some of the molds may be difficult.Good molds, lots of varieties, just be sure your curing light is strong.

I ordered these to make beads from the left over resin I usually have after making larger peaces. These molds are AMAZING! they are super easy to use, cured resin just popes out of them. The shape is perfect and they look extremely cool. I am definitely ordering another set soon.

No matter if I used UV or regular resin my daughter and I could not get them to come out nice… tried alcohol ink first then tried mica (which definitely didn’t help) and really difficult to fill either with peppet or syringe … bad shrinkage too … and not as pictured for my set see pics

The larger beads are fantastic and easy to mold and demold but the smaller beads, not so much. They are beautiful once you can manage to fill the cavity with resin and but then trying to demold was difficult. I welcome suggestions.
