YAMS Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Hello everyone. I am just learning to make Paraffin and Soy candles so Gel Candles are a thing for the future but I would like to learn just to have the option to decorate my family gatherings at home. I would like to know how I can make my own embeds. I own a lot of silicone molds because I work with Epoxy Resin for jewelry and crafts. Are there instructions on how to make them anywhere on this forum. Thanks everyone!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdcharm Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 I used to make embeds for gel candles when I was more active with gel candles -- cool that you have silicone molds! I used candy molds, but many of them turned out nicely. I'm keeping most of my molds just in case I get the urge to do them again! I used hurricane wax (high melt point wax) and specialty glitters (fine and I think some are ultra-fine, I'd have to look) ... I would sprinkle just a bit in the bottom of the mold and then gently pour. For using them, I did it a couple of different ways, but for ones up against the glass, I have a nice method that I use that usually works out well. Answering your post is making me want to get some more gel!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
