Blossom Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 I've been making cp in individual molds. I love how they feel in the hand, but obviously, it is not easy to do anything creative/swirly in them. I do an itp swirl that is nice, but whenever I see the gorgeous swirls possible, I want to try THAT, too.Yes, I'm aware that this is an addiction (not aware of any 12 step, however...LOL).If you were buying a mold and wanted to get one that would provide the best swirls...would you get a slab or a log? I've seen good swirls done with both, but would like to make one and see how it goes before investing in something custom/professional/expensive.Thanks!

Carrie Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 I get the best swirls in a slab mold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blossom Posted March 15, 2009 Author Share Posted March 15, 2009 thanks so much! I think I'll make a small one with wood from other projects and see how it goes (and how I like it) before investing in a professional mold.I've been eying those with silicone liners...and wanting one with my logo...

cwayneu Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Yes, I think slabs are the best for swirls. Log molds allow for layering, but limited swirling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
