ok, I hate trying to to embed and want to talk to this out.... I am putting Bible verses in them, and will decorate with flowers afterwards around the edges......... do you have to put them in a water bath to get clarity???? When ever I try this, it starts setting up so fast or using the ice cube, and I can tell wax is getting behind the paper. At this point, I remove the cube or cloth, reheat the side of the mold with a heat gun and start again, ugggg....that drives me crazy. I did one last night, poured at 200, and just let it sit on the table and when I saw it cooling, I pressed against the paper again, because I could tell it wasn't stuck, just kept on doing that until I was ready to pour the center out. (this took awhile) The top part is good, but as it goes down the paper, it gets less clear. I just want to know if I am trying to do something that will never work, and I need to just master the cold cloth, ice cube technique....if so..after it has attached, do you still need to put it in a bath??cold or warm??? thanks. I am about to give up on this and just continue doing the flowers on the outside. I am so jealous of all the pic of the perfectly clear pictures.
