- Hi everyone and welcome back to another video. In this video I show you how I add foil to my silicone trays before adding Jesmonite. I have not tried this before .. so I try different methods so that we can all learn together. I share my findings with you in hopes that it will help you grow with your Jesmonite projects.
I hope you enjoy it :)

Temu is a great place to order large molds. Please stop ordering from wish they will deceive you all the time 😢. I really enjoy your videos. Thank you for your amazing work. Bless you
These items are so unique and beautiful! I love the big tray!!❤️❤️
Thanks Lisa ... so glad you love it x thats my fav xx
Clair you have done it again these are right up my street I Love them ! Well done Clair really enjoyed your videos and tutorials your an inspiration x
Thanks so much Anna xxx so glad you love them xxx
Interesting, Informative and very Helpful!!! Not to mention, Inspiring and illuminating!!😅 LOVE the industrial look add you really nailed it- with or without the foil!!! Brilliant!!🤩
Thankyou so much xx I'm glad you found it helpful xxx
So informative Claire, Thank you xx
I also found this video so so relaxing and calm to watch - Loved it xxxxx
Glad you enjoyed it! that is so amazing xxx thank yoooo lovely xx
Loving the colours & perhaps oddly the mottled effect. It just all works & looks so great together. The new big tray mould is gorgeous too x
Thanks so much xx Yes I just love the rustic vibe
I loved the mottled effect as well. A look of texture is always better than a flat colour I think.
Love your videos Claire, they're a really huge help, thank you!
Thank you so much Barry 😁😁🙌
I don't know if you ever get a chance to look at new posts on old videos, but here I am, watching some of your old stuff and getting even more excited to try my aqua resin. I got it! Tomorrow is THE day!
heyyyyy Charlene ... ohhhh you did ? fantastic so excited for you xxxx
Great video! Just got into resin and Jesmonite and I’ve been wondering about how to use leaf, thanks for experimenting for us 😉
Thank you for this channel. I love how enthusiastic you get! I
Heyyy ... wow thank you for being here xxx
Another fantastic video ❤ thank you Claire x
Thank you so much Becki ❤❤❤
Omg claire theses are stunning the square is defo my favourite I love those colours love watching you create 😍😍😍🤍🤍🤍
Thanks so much girl xxxx ❤❤❤
Wow that first tray was stunning, it’s coming up with the patterns that surprises me the most. I would get so addicted if I ever started resin lol. Lucky you have a shop you can sell them in lol. And wow the coasters were stunning too, sometimes the ‘mistakes’ make something even more wonderful!! I think that’s why I love your videos so much is that you are just as surprised as we are when you de-mould! Lol and the little pot I’m sure would supposed to be the barrel shape. Love it! Those jewellery pieces too are beautiful! They are giving my some ideas myself.
thanks sooooo much girl ... honestly this is a world away from resin !!! more like plaster of paris ... and you have tonnes of that !!! you would smash this craft !! xx
Beautiful ❤❤❤ love the coaster too 😍
Thank you lovely xxx
@@ClairesCraftyCorner 💖💖💖🤗🤗
Gorgeous absolutely beautiful
Thank you so much lovely xxx
I love how the colours shot across each other when you were tapping!
you can get such cool patterns across the back when you tap hard lol
Yes, I loved that too.
These are lovely I like the little pot
Thank you so much lovely xxx ❤❤❤
Great work Clairio.😊😊😊
Thank yoooo xx
With the round mold. I make it with just jesmonite. Once i take it out of the mold before i seal it. I put the gold on top. Its a bit more work but try it because its worth it.
Love your video you give me so much ideas.
Heyyy Heba, yes I do that too ... I actually prefer it x
Great video as usual Claire! Question: how do you seal gold leaves so they don't turn greenish? :(
Hi aunty Claire I think you now I always love your videos 😁😜👍
Thanks Blake xx
Lovely Claire. You can create your own molds by using a small plastic ( or cellophane wrapped) container inside a bigger one and pour the jesmonite between the two (after you've put a base layer in the bigger one) - OR - you can google garden decor molds but they are hugely expensive.
Thank you so much lovely xx such a great tip :)
I love videos with soft music and No talking
Love ❤❤❤
Hi. I usually use epoxy resin but I've just ordered some jesmonite to try for the time. Wirh resin if you get tiny holes from bubbles on the rim you can hide maybe by using top coat or resin or tiny bit of UV resin on a toothpick to fill. How do you fill the tiny holes you may get with jesmonite? Thanks x
I have had molds bow slightly the underside cross frame is to blame. I’ve been told to place the mold in sand to underfill the cross frame or put resin in the underside to firm up the underside to give strength and shape to your pour side. I too have been looking for a larger plant pot mold too struggling with no success x
Thank you so much Kellie, that is good advice xx It is so frustrating ... when I see my dream mould usually they do not want to share where they purchased it xx
A navy marble and gold tray would be brilliant!
Claire, can you use the glue and foil after you demould? Do I need to wait a while for it to cure fully before I do it?
Omg I loooooove your videos - honestly so amazing. What kind of foil do you need for doing this? And where can I buy from xxx
Heyyyy Amy ... thank you xx general gold leaf for crafting is fine ... I have linked it all below video I got from Amazon xxx but you can get it in craft stores too x
Thanks for the video! I've been cheated by the photos of the moulds and many times I'm shocked by how small it actually is🤣
thanks so much glad you liked it x and yes .. I think we all have ha ha ha
I’ve heard that you can use mica powder to color jesmonite. Would a little powder in the mold first work similarly to the foil here? I’m a newbie and haven’t even received my jesmonite in the mail yet, but I’m loving learning all the tips on your channel. Your excitement is infectious! 😁
Hey Emily, yes you can use Mica and yes it picks up Mica from the mould ... not as much as Resin would pick up 100% but Jesmonite picks up around 60% xxx I have videos on it the Nebula designs are on here x
Watching all your jesmonite tutorials and I have no idea why my mix is always hard even though I've only just mixed it, and yours are runny and pourable, what am I doing wrong? I use the online jesmonite calculator and I feel like it sets up right after I finished adding the entire powder in ( I do it in stages to avoid clumps) please help!
Beautifull
Thank you so much xxx
Love your videos Claire. Their such an inspiration and your personality is infectious. The little pot from Wish would make a nice little candle holder. Just a thought but would it work I wonder if you add the foil directly to some Jesmonite before you add it to the mold like you do with the terrazzo shards. So add the foil to a little Jesmonite, spread it across the mold where you want it, the fill the rest of the mold with your other colours, then fill the finished product to reveal the foil afterwards? Would that work? I love the foil in the Jesmonite, it really gives it that something extra. A bit of sparkle. About filing, you need to buy yourself a Jooltool to speedup the process of filing for you. 😂😂😂😂
Heyyyy Helen, thank you so much I am glad you love my videos ... The foil I have not yet tried putting it inside the jesmonite. I worry it may get lost but would be worth trying for sure. So, the AC100 can and does get used as a candle vessel however, AC100 is Combustible so you would have to take care to ensure at least a 1 inch gap around the wick all around ... the AC730 is NON-combustible so better for candles x
@@ClairesCraftyCorner Oh that’s brilliant to know. Thank you. I wondered what the difference was between the different Jesmonite codes. Thanks ❤️
Hi, if you apply foil after what type of glue would u use? I was told that the mottled effect is from the jesmonite being left in the mould to long and it sweats x
Heyyy lovely .. I actually apply foil using the jesmonite sealant .. t works well but dries fast .. so i brush it on and work fast xx
I'll ask my contact. These are just so so classy looking. What if you burnished the copper? They copper square coaster is my fave. X
thanks so much girl ... ohh yes could do .. need to Google Burnish haaaaaaaaaaa
Hi thank you very much 👍🏻 you are so helpful ♥️ I appreciate.. I wanna ask what do you mix to creat the ivory color
Thanks lovely ... The Ivory colour is the natural colour of the Jesmonite xxx no colour added
@@ClairesCraftyCorner thanks 🙏🏻
@@saoudyful ❤❤
And how did you get rid of the leftover foil from the molds?
Claire, loving your videos and learning so much! I just started playing with this medium. I'm in the states so we don't have jesmonite. So, wondering....did the GOLD FOIL stay well on your items? I just did coasters and worried the foil will come off. I did wax them, but still concerned. Would love your feedback and anyone else's about this. Thanks!!
Heyyy Vickie, I did use sealer to keep the foil in .. Jesmonite doesnt bring it away from the mould very well at all but you can also add foil after de mould and seal that x
@@ClairesCraftyCorner Hi ! So lovely ! I also tried gold powder or leaves on my jesmonite. The result is so great but if i sealed it, the gold is not shiny anymore. So disappointing …
What do you use to seal ?
Thanks in advanced for your answer
Your tone of voice is so similar to Jesy from little mix 😂 love seeing your crafts!!
ahhhhh ha that is so cool ! she is actually from the same place as me ... nearly x lol She is from Barking ... I am from Stratford haaaaa just one bus away x
Your videos are always great. Thumbs up before I even get to the end. Just wondering what jump rings you use for the earrings please? I just couldn't get circular ones through as it was too thick. Thank you..gonna buy some foil now
heyyyy lovely .. I have a kit from BeeBee Craft and they come with quite large jump rings x it can be hard on these thicker moulds though
@@ClairesCraftyCorner Thank you. I'm getting intermittent success with 10mm x 1mm jump rings. I think I'll try to make them slightly thinner. Thanks for all your tips. I'll check out the brand you mention
Beautiful as always🤍🖤 Love this color, one of my favorites❤ matte and shiny!! I love that tray mold, I add pressed flowers , comes out Beautiful as well...I will tag you on Instagram😉
Thanks so much Maria xxx your work is beautiful xx
@@ClairesCraftyCorner Thank you sooo much Claire🥰 🌼🌻🌹That means alot to me coming from such a Talented artist as Yourself❤🌼
Very nice love concept. However could you add flake gold or copper after and then put a nice coat over it to secure the flakes. Just thinking I have never used jesmonite can you use a clear matte or semi gloss spray to seal it or do you have to use something made for jesmonite? Stunning pieces. Definitely a win. Even though you may have to touch up flakes. Thanks for sharing Claire. You make georgeous creations. Take care. Hugs Sheryl 💛🎨💛
Heyyy Shryl .. yes you absolutely can add foil after you de-mould .. I tried it yesterday and it works well x I used Jesmonite sealant to stick the flakes down then sealed over the top x
Can we use cement instead jesmonite??? Is there any difference between both of them??
Can any cement be used on the mold
Can we use jesmonite as plates to eat food on ?
Hi Claire!
Do you have a link to the foil you used at all? Or any recommendations on where to grab some in quite a large quantity?
Would love to know 💚
heyyyy lovely ... i have linked it all under the video at least i hope i have ha ha i better check x i get mine from Amazon .. as for bulk I am not so sure where to go x
Nicole moulds does the pot moulds
Hi! Is it a gypsum?
Waaaauuw! What an amazing results!!! I just have one question, maybe you could help me out. I assume you do not sand it, but do you seal it? Is the gold goil coming off after a while?
Heyyy Sanne, you can seal the top and the foil stays happy :)
Thank you very much! I have tried one myself with your tips. The only is that the foil stays in a lot of spaces in the silicon mold. Did you already had this or do you have any idea what I did wrong?
I make notebook covers, would this product work for those?
Heyyy lovely ... it would work technically .... but it is so much heavier than Epoxy .... and more likely to smash than Epoxy xxx
Have you ever made a jesmonite tray with handles. I am wondering if the handles would have to be put on after or during the curing process?
Heyyy lovely .. no I havent .. ut it is on my list of to do's. I could make it for next Wednesday ? I am always writing lists .. and then test out the handles inside the Jesmonite
@@ClairesCraftyCorner excellent, I will be watching. I hope it works.
@@llmacdon85 amazing ... I will give you a shout out ❤❤❤❤ thank you xx
Hhmmm as its quite like plaster of paris and kinda gives that concrete type 'look' its got me wondering if you could use concrete moulds that aren't silicone?
Hey Charlie ... ohhh that sounds like something that could work for sure ... I only use these moulds because it's all I have ... I wouldnt even know where to get concrete moulds xxx
I tried this and I came out nice but the leaf that sticks to your mold is a headache to wash off. Do you have any tricks to get it off?
heyyyyyyy sweets ... oh yes yes just use sellotape ! no need for water ... sellotape will get it off simple as
Honestly...? I need to stop watching, I want to buy everything!!!!!! I live this colour scheme. I live the big oval dish and I love the little beer barrel!! 😂😂 that music brought me close to tears while I watched the magic you were creating! Very meditative experience. 😘 I presume some if not all of these pieces will end up on your Etsy selling page? 🙊🙉🙈
Thank you so much sis xxx so glad you love them love yoooooo xx
I found one on Amazon under "silicone mold for large concrete flowers planter" I wasn't sure if it actually was silicone but in the description it states it is definitely silicone and can be used over and over. 4.72 inches. I tried to copy and paste but I'm useless at PC's 😂😂
Thankyou so much Debbie .. yes a lot of people have told me to search for concrete moulds xxx I will definitely do this xxx
Will the gold foil tarnish over time?
Hey Emily, I dont really know to be honest... I cannot say no because I have only just start using Jes. x The gold foil gets sealed in with the sealer ... so hopefully not xxx
I love them , where can I get the dish from , I would love to make that with my jasmonite x
The dish is from Ali Express .. I couldnt find the link but will have another go now x
@@ClairesCraftyCorner thanks doll x
How you measure your moulds? How much jesmonite you need for them?
heyyy lovely ... I am still in the process of working that out but I dont know individual amounts .. I have worked out 2 moulds so far .. I just need to work out the rest. I generally make too much and then pour in to other moulds
Hi Claire hope can you help me . I have the same large tray you just filled at the beginning of your amazing video, please can you let me know the amount of base and liquid in measurements to fill it please. Thanks in advance for the help :)
Heyyyy my lovely ... I actually didn't write down the measurements for that one ... but at a guess ... I would say go with 200g Liquid
X 2.5 for the powder ...
I think this should cover it xx but see how you get on .. and if you don't have enough then you can add on top or if you have too much then have another mould nearby x
Can we use this material for food serving? Is it safe?
Heyyyy lovely ... no sadly it is not. Jesmonite HQ have not tested it for food safety x
I've bought gold foil, but I have n' t figured out what to do.
I tried putting foil on afterwards and it works too ... so You can just carry on making and think about foil after :) xx ha
This leaf will tarnish pretty quick because it was exposed to the moisture from the mix.At least it have to be sealed or oil gilded afterwards and than sealed as well.
heyyyy lovely, it was sealed xx
Ooohhh i am struggling with that i have no idea how i have to do it to avoid the change of color
Hello ...how to protect the jesmnite ..what can we coat it with
heyyyy Lama .. I use Jesmonite sealer x hard to get right now but you can use stone and tile sealer x
@@ClairesCraftyCorner thank ypu dear so much for replying 💖❤
Where get you get the jesmonite
You can find Jesmonite at your nearest Jesmonite Stockist. There are a few countries that do not have Jesmonite at all like the Americas ... but sadly it is also currently out of stock across the globe x
I do the same with dimensions x
it looks like we are all guilty ha ha ha
Where can I find your big plate silicone ?!?!?! I need it pleaseeeeeee
Heyyyy lovely ... that is from Ali Express .. if you type in 27cm plate mould you will find it x
Mine got stuck on mould and product had black marks..Nothing worked for me
Loved them but my favorite was the pot
Thank you so much lovely xxx
How do u get the liquid so runny?
Heyyy lovely ... Jesmonite is quite runny as a substance .. some days I find it runnier than others I do wonder if it has to do with temperature x
@@ClairesCraftyCorner oh...ok. I c. Thnx. I tried doing more than one colours in separate pots but they set in the pot...lol. should I just mix up one at a time?
Oh girl... Wish probably had a 3yo pose for that picture during their break from making the molds. That kid was supporting their family and buying shoes for the emperor’s wife. I will give Wish credit for selling dollhouse stuff for a good price. Never mind they don’t clearly promote it as teeny weeny.
🤣🤣🤣 Mary so true
amazon! check for large mold.
thank you Kae x
How can I get jesmonite products
Heyyyy Iris ... where in the world are you? search for your local Jesmonite Stockist xxx
If you are in the USA its not available at all sorry x
@@ClairesCraftyCorner can I order it even though I'm in the USA
@@irisrichardson9772 no I don't think it is allowed in the USA ... the USA has something similar called Aqua Resin xxx
Oops, this video was made a year ago. You have likely found one by now. If so, do you have a video that shows yiu using it?
Can you link your molds?
heyyyy Jessica, I have just been through and updated the store front ... You should find the moulds there linked below the video. xxxx
I tried doing that with concrete, all the gold flakes was stuck on the silicone mold! HELPP
Heyyy lovely .. yeh the same happens here really ... only Epoxy Resin takes them off properly x I used Jesmonite sealant to stick more flakes down xx
@@ClairesCraftyCorner heyy babe! Thank you so muchh for answering my question! Btww is Jesmonite sealant the same as Acrylic Sealant?
@@jacqsumarta3450 heyyy lovely... Jesmonite do say that you can use any Acrylic sealer xxx but U use the branded one as I haven't researched x
@@ClairesCraftyCorner AHH THANK YOUU LOVEE
Heyyyy Claire, I have a lot of links for you to flower pot molds, I will send them to you privately on your Insta ❤❤
You're amazing thank you sooooo much xx ❤❤❤❤❤
Steve Mcdonald crafting channel where he works on things not resin has lovely pots and things that he works on, and the molds are always underneath.
And I'm 1st
😁😆
yaaayyyyyy
Try Ali express. Have been looking myself for 1.
Thank you lovely xxx
Sorry they are not my kind of moulds, I was intrigued with the swell effect but no the copper and gold flakes, just my opinion and I am sure a lot of people will love them
thanks for watching John. :)
