Step 1: Prepare Your Workspace and Mould

Choose a clean, dust-free area for your project. Lay disposable covers to catch spills and ensure sufficient ventilation. Select your preferred shape of silicone mould—heart, round, or glass styles are all suitable. Ensure your mould is clean and completely dry before starting. If using a new mould, a gentle rinse and air dry are recommended to remove any factory residue. Wear gloves to prevent fingerprints and keep surfaces pristine.

Step 2: Mix and Colour Your Resin

Read the instructions for your epoxy resin carefully to achieve the correct mixing ratio. Always measure resin and hardener accurately using dedicated mixing cups. Pour the two components together and stir slowly for at least 3 minutes, scraping the sides and bottom for a uniform blend. For vibrant, personalised boxes, now is the time to add resin-safe colourants or inclusions such as glitter. Mix until your resin is fully coloured and bubble-free.

If detailed moulds or a water-clear finish are your priority, “Liquidissima” – Epoxy Resin For Creations & Jewellery is ideal for minimising air bubbles and ensuring a flawless result.

Step 3: Pour and Cure the Resin

Slowly pour the mixed resin into the centre of your silicone mould. Take care to avoid spills and pour to your desired thickness—avoid overfilling your mould as excess resin can impede later demoulding. To prevent air pockets, poke with a toothpick or gently tap the mould on the table. Pop air bubbles as soon as they appear using a torch or heat gun held at a safe distance. Leave the mould undisturbed on a level surface to ensure an even finish.

Curing time varies by temperature and resin type, but most epoxy resins set within 12-24 hours. Check product guidance and avoid touching the resin until fully cured to avoid marks or fingerprints.

Step 4: Demould and Finish Your Jewellery Box

Once completely cured, gently remove the box from the silicone mould. Demould gently to protect details: start at the edges and slowly peel the mould away to preserve the crispness of your design. It may help to flex the mould slightly, but do not force the resin out as this can damage both the piece and the mould.

Trim any unwanted bits with a craft knife and use fine sandpaper for a smooth edge. If a high-gloss finish is desired, apply a thin layer of mixed resin as a topcoat or polish with a resin-safe compound.

Caring for Your Resin Box and Moulds

Preserve your results by storing resin boxes away from direct sunlight and moisture. When cleaning silicone moulds, use mild soap and water—avoid harsh chemicals to extend their life. Explore our collection of jewellery box moulds for your next project.
