If you glue them down before they dry you eliminate a lot of the gaps. You can even paint them before they dry.

I know this video was a bit older but as a new subscriber here and newer to this sort of thing of flipping thrift store finds it was hugely beneficial to me to watch and learn from! Thank you! I am a single mom and work really hard at my "regular" job but am barely scraping by. So I thought about what I can do to help earn more income for my little family of me and 3 kiddo's? I already do lots of artsy stuff to relax and have quite a few IOD moulds and a few transfers ( I still haven't used the transfers!) I came across your video and the light bulb went off along with siren bells that I could flip thrift store finds!!! You make it look easy! I know it is a lot of work but maybe I could just start small with a canister set and 1 or 2 other flips and see how it goes? I love how you use the lazy Susan to help you paint all sides. How did you start out? What made you decide you could and wanted to do this for a living??? Very curious! Thanks again for inspiring me to try this!

With all the work you do on these pieces I don't know how you make any money at the prices you are selling them for. You do a great job.

I'm 💯 obsessed with IOD products. In my personal opinion they're truly at the top of the game in this market. I'm so excited to see you using something from them as thats what caught my eye while scrolling 😄 I really appreciate as a buyer the extra steps to protect the insides of the canisters. Very professional 👏Just for the future, with IOD you really don't need cornstarch but if you choose to you would want to use barely any just a very light dusting is all you need with their moulds. Also,they're famous and the only one's who have the microedge which mean that once you put your clay in you press with your thumbs or a credit card and it will remove all clay from edges leaving you with a perfect image that you don't have to then trim. It's what makes their moulds the absolutely best. Regarding their clay it is different than clay you buy at craft stores as thats more 'play' clay. IOD clay is actually professional artist grade clay so it's a big difference to work with. There's some amazing videos that can help you get familiar with their products as they're a little different but SO worth it🤗 I have also learned we can glue them down while the peices are still fresh. It's actually a benefit. Im still a learner just sharing tips I've learned. You really made these turn out fantastic!!! So happy I found you🙏

I love these!! I just bought a bunch of prima molds but i will check these out. A suggestion. While making cakes i used an old sock with corn starch or powder sugar in it and tied off at the toe and cut. Like a little ball filled with powder. Just tap it into the mold and then turn over to take the excess out. It’ll last you forever. Love your channel. 👍🏼🤍 P.S. put wood glue on the back of your clay after molding it and slap it on there. It’ll dry along with the clay and you wont have to worry about it popping off and it’ll go all the way to the edges and your petals will touch the crock. Easier painting after it all dries. 🌸

Ginger use a paint brush to dust on your cornstarch and when you put the clay there are ridges on on the mould that cut off the edges Press with your fingers.you can also glue you mould right away while it is wet

You just amaze me! These pieces are fantastic, they look just like crocks. I dont have any of the molds yet, but you can bet I will be ordering some if I can find them. I still don't have the stamps for crockery yet. Iv got the animals and the alfabet and that it. Everything is always out of stock, if you or Julie use it then forget it its going to be awhile before its available again. You are just so wonderful, you teach as you work. I have learned more from you than anyone. Thank you. Have a blessed week!

Hey Yvonne, so glad to see you trying out the moulds! So I just wanted to share a quick tip that someone gave me. Use a very small, dry paint brush and brush your cornstarch one. You only need a very thin coating. It will save you a ton of product!

I tend to agree. That's a heck of a lot of work for minimal profit. The cost of paint ,clay, molds, items and of course time spent has to be quite a bit. I guess it is offset by creating you tube content .

Wonderful projects! Just wanted to let you know that IOD has micro-rims. The extra clay will roll right off that rim so there's no need to trim the excess off later! :)

Oh Wow- I had no idea you could clear coat spray over wax....learned something this morning.

Your big smile tells us how much fun you had with the molds. And everything looks great. I like the way the cow shows up on the pitcher.

Love this video. When your mold is full of clay just move your thumb to push it over the ridge on the edge to remove all of the excess. You've probably watched the IOD videos, I love the way that you can learn how to use of their products. I'm glad that I found your channel.

I'm kinda behind, but wanted to say that your work is beautiful. I discovered IOD a couple of years ago, and they changed my life. BTW, you don't charge enough for your time and products. They're getting a gem when they buy your beautiful hand crafted items. God bless you and your family🙂

Oh my goodness, Yvonne! You did such an amazing job on those molds! I have watched others do them but they can t compare to how yours looked! So much detail shows on yours! I think the way you used both of the waxes made the difference. I just did my first try at the textured paint yesterday and was pleased with the outcome on my birds a d some fruit I thrifted. I see now that I need to go back with just the plain Mineral paint to fine tune. Your delight in working with the molds is adorable as you do what you love and love what you do. It's contagious!

Just bought the IOD sunflower and how apropos your video was on with the great detailed directions! Thank you very much for sharing, I feel more confident trying this out because this is my first time. Diane

The essential oil trick made me pull them out of the trash bucket and love on my molds once more. Now I NEED this sunflower mold. Thank you for this incredible video.

I’m sure by now your aware of this but you can glue the glue while it’s wet don’t have to wait until dray. You did great with the clay for your first time it’s fun to remember our play dough days but I use resin these days, no cracking as it drys. I

your cornstarch will work much better for you if you use a small childs size paint brush to brush it into the mold. Also the IOD moulds have a "micro rim" on the border of the flower that will allow you to get a very crisp edge without having to cut off the clay.
