These two gorgeous beetles are, indeed, very lovable. We are so in love with them. They were designed with jewelry making in mind (wouldn’t they be stunning as pendants?), specifically for use with urethane or epoxy resin. The delicate antennas and legs of the insects will stay strong when cast in resin. You can always use polymer clay or air-dry clay with these molds to create a reproduction of the insects’ body and wings, but we recommend the use of metal wire for the legs and antennas.

The mould can be used with clay or resin, as well as with food decoration mediums such as chocolate or fondant. When using resin with this mold, we recommend that you apply a release agent first, for example a thin layer of cooking oil spray. When using polymer or air-dry clay with this mold, we recommend that you apply a fine layer of cornstarch, talcum powder or water on the mold before filling it with clay.

Mould size 5.79"x3.78 (147x96mm). Insect size: approx. 3″ (75mm)
