[Silicone] Silicone Putty Mold Making
Want to quickly replicate your favorite flower trinkets? With our silicone putty, you can easily capture every delicate detail. Simply press the putty around the original piece, and in about 20 minutes, it will cure into a flexible mold that peels away effortlessly. The finished molds produce petals with crisp details that don’t stick together, making accessory creation fast, easy, and worry-free.
Difficulty: ★★☆☆☆
Crafting time: about 1 hour
Tool and Material Preparation
Materials: silicone putty, flower trinkets, circular mousse ring, weighing scale, acrylic board
Protective Equipment: Always wear nitrile waterproof gloves, a waterproof apron, and a mask for safe handling.
Environment Setup
Ideal Conditions: Maintain a temperature between 73–78°F with humidity no higher than 50–60% RH. Ventilation: Work in a well-ventilated area, ideally near a window or use an air purifier for better airflow.
Step-by-step Instructions
Step 1
Measure equal amounts of Part A and Part B by weight, following a 1:1 mixing ratio. Quickly knead the two parts together by hand, folding and blending until the color is completely uniform with no streaks or marbling.
Step 2
Place the thoroughly mixed silicone into a circular mousse ring. Press it flat using an acrylic board to create a smooth, even surface.
Step 3
Gently press the flower trinkets fully into the silicone. Allow the putty to cure for approximately 20 minutes.
Step 4
Once cured, carefully remove the flower trinkets. Trim the edges of the silicone mold flat with scissors, and your mold is ready to use.
Pro tip
Master models made from incompatible materials may react with silicone and prevent proper curing. To avoid this issue, we recommend using materials such as epoxy products, glass, ceramics and acrylic, which are compatible with silicone and ensure successful mold curing.
