How to make molded hot glue embellishments - Prima - Creativation 2020 

You can also dust a mold with mica powders or glitter and then squirt the glue in. It will adhere the mica powder. Use a paint brush to apply the powder evenly to the mold.

Omg, I wanted to spruce up my dollar tree craft items and this will add to beautify them. Thank you so much for taking the time to show us this.

You can buy glue sticks that are already in colors and some with glitter. That way you can skip painting them if you want or at least use it as the base color.

Oh wow! Never new this would work with hot glue! I have spent a lot of money on a variety of resins from Reynolds plastics, which are very pricey, where the glue gun molded items would work just as well!

If you store your glue sticks in the freezer, it cuts WAY down on those annoying strings you mentioned ;) It does NOT affect the glue either, I read this tip YEARSSSS ago in a blog I cant remember and is now long gone sadly, but I store every type of glue stick in the freezer and Ill take a few out at a time or Ill take one right from the freezer to the glue gun and it still works like normal. It doesnt affect the glue itself either. Ive even used this trick with SUPER OLD glue sticks I got at the thrift shop I volunteer at bc they were going to toss them...but I wanted to see if this trick would work on even super old stringy gooey glue sticks and sure enough it did! Lol! They were gross before I froze them, but worked fine after! I didnt keep them though bc the glue was actually yellowed, lol! My fav trick I learned and love to pass on bc Ive never heard anyone else mention it...and I store my fabric and glitter or colored sticks in the freezer too! My bf even tried it with his industrial glue gun sticks that are HUGE and yep, worked great with those too! Hope it helps you as well!

They look fantastic with the paint!

Great idea! Thanks for such great coverage of Creativation!

they look pretty durable too, this is a great idea, it'll save me lots of embossing powder haha~

Thank you for the heat gun tip. That's what they do with resin molds too.

Love your papers! So

They would be so fun!!

Beautiful! Thank you for sharing honey!

Omg! This is a terrific idea! I already own a few of the molds, paint and wax!❤️❤️

This satisfied my creative search

What company makes the clock moulds? Thanks!

Are you using a high or low glue stick. Thank you for sharing your beautiful work.

Dont say this too often,,, GREAT IDEA!!!

What's the name of the paint which you used. From where i can get the paint and wax

❤

I bet that if you preheat the mold in the oven first, the glue would spread even better.

Have you tried to top coat with resin.

Nice❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️

All of the molds I have found look fairly deep for flowers and leaves

If you then wanted to apply to a glass vase, what type of glue would you use?

Ok THAT LOOKS LIKE FUN😃. Thank you for sharing. Now I just need to know where you get all those molds?

What was the name of the black frosted paint you used to paint the wing?

CAN YOU USE THE MOLDS FOR EDIBLE THINGS AFTER USING HOT GLUE IN THE MOLDS ?

Hi is a hair dryer ok instead of a heat gun thanks.

This is a great idea, but I have a question... how do you avoid little bubbles in the mold after you have put the glue into the mold? I tried this several times, but ended up with little pocks in the cooled pieces. I tried to POP them, but that just made it worse. I also used my heat gun to help smooth the glue out, and that was fine, but I could not pop the bubbles. Anybody got any answers for me?

where to buy the molds and the paints

Heat gun!

Can you use hot glue in a deep mold t9 make something bigger

What happens when its hot and the glue melts

Sooooooo noisy
