Plastic molds

Plastic molds for shapes and decorative details

Plastic molds can be used to create letters, small three-dimensional shapes and decorative clay elements. The pre-shaped designs help makers reproduce motifs in a similar shape and size. They are suitable for miniatures, cards, mixed media, jewelry, dolls and seasonal decorations.

Makin’s Push Molds and Padico clay molds

The collection includes plastic molds from Makin’s and Padico. Makin’s Push Molds offer designs such as leaves, fruit, shells, hearts, flowers, borders, figures and seasonal decorations. The Padico molds add further shapes and applications, including a mold for letters and numbers.

How to use a plastic clay mold

Press the clay evenly into the required design and make sure no air remains between the clay and the mold. Remove excess material before carefully releasing the shaped piece. With Makin’s Push Molds, a small amount of corn starch can help prevent the clay from sticking. Always follow the instructions supplied with the individual mold.

Plastic molds are used as shaping aids. Remove the shaped piece before the clay is dried or baked. For flexible molds and deeper designs, explore our collection of silicone molds.

The plastic molds from Makin’s and Padico are a practical addition to the polymer clay and air-dry clay range of shops, online retailers, studios and workshop providers. Letters, figures, natural motifs and decorative shapes support a variety of customers and creative techniques.
