need mold advice/suggestions

[Blossom]

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!

I get the best swirls in a slab mold.

Slab mold. I am an Upland Lover.

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...

Yes, I think slabs are the best for swirls. Log molds allow for layering, but limited swirling.
