![How to Make a Silicone Mold for Paper Mache [For Etsy Sellers and Plays]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/zevmy70b4oo/hqdefault.jpg "How to Make a Silicone Mold for Paper Mache [For Etsy Sellers and Plays]
Costume designers and Etsy sellers - Do you may need multiple copies of your paper mache sculptures and masks? Its easy to make silicone molds for paper mache with Rebound 25.
In the video above I go through everything you need to do: getting your clay model ready for the mold, brushing on the silicone, and then creating your first copy with paper strips and Titebond II wood glue.
I have some screen shots on my website if you prefer to read the instructions for making the silicone molds instead of watching the video. You can find that post here: https://www.ultimatepapermache.com/how-to-make-a-silicone-mold-for-paper-mache
I made this video especially for folks who need to make a lot of paper mache copies of a clay model, and they want to use products that are especially made for creating silicone molds.
There are videos online that show how to make cheaper molds using silicone caulking, but Ive tried all those recipes and none of them come close to the quality you can get with the Rebound 25.
I buy the product in the larger size because I create clay models for all of the patterns I make for the masks and wall sculptures behind me in the video. The silicone will last for a very long time if you keep the lids on tight.
But if you only need one mold, they sell the product in smaller quantities, too. It isnt cheap, but I never use anything else for my molds.
