Amy Koranek wrote a great tutorial for using Polyform’s (the Sculpey people!) bezel molds. For her bezels, she’s using the metallic translucent liquid clays which strikes me as pretty clever. She also covers the steps for a fun mokume gane stack to use to make the cabochons for the bezels, using the matching cabochon molds.
The tip in the tutorial about making sure the molds are good and warm so the LS flows well in the details is super useful – I have trouble getting cool clay, let alone liquid clay, into the nooks and crannies of thin, detailed molds.
