I love these molds, they're so easy to make and they work really well! Also, I didn't come up with this idea. I've seen them before on other website, but since there isn't a how-to for them on this website, I thought I'd post it. I did make the ones you're seeing here though ;)

You Will Need (4 things)

  • Hot Glue
  • Hot Glue Gun
  • Cabochon
  • Parchment Paper

Steps (5 steps, 5 minutes)

  1. 1

    You're going to want to lay out some parchment paper first to work on.

  2. 2

    while your hot glue gun is warming up, pick out a cabochon that's you'd like to make a mold of.

  3. 3

    squeeze out a goo-sized glob of hot glue, anywhere from half a stick to a couple sticks depending on how big your cabochon is.

  4. 4

    Push you cabochon face-first into the hot glue.

  5. 5

    Let completely harden, and then pop your cabochon out. Voila!

    Note:
    If you're using a thin cabochon BE VERY CAREFUL not to snap the cabochon in half during this step! (sadly, I speak from experience.)
