Open Lotus Tealight Holder Mould | Layered Petals | Pack of 1 - Resin

Cast an open lotus with pointed petals laid back from a deep centre well, a shape for the pooja shelf and the Diwali table alike. The white silicone mould is a single lotus with layered petals; no size is stated. Pour green, purple or blue resin, cement or plaster for a floral holder.

Specifications

Perfect for

• Pooja and Diwali tealight holders
• Wedding mandap decor
• Festive return gifts
• Coloured resin lotus pieces

Compatibility

Works with: epoxy resin, plaster of Paris, cement, jesmonite, candle wax and melt and pour soap base.

Pairs well with: mica powder, dried flowers and tealights in their own metal cups.

Not suitable for: food or oven use, since we state no food grade or heat rating for this mould; a bare flame on a resin cast, so keep each tealight in its cup.

How to Use

1. Wash and dry the mould, then set it level on a flat board.
2. Mix your resin, cement or plaster as its maker directs and pour slowly, tapping the sides to lift bubbles.
3. Leave it to cure fully for the time the maker states; an early release tears edges.
4. Flex the silicone back from one side and lift the piece out.
