I recently received a delivery from Plaid of the new Mod Podge Mod Melts and Mod Molds. There are a few different Mod Molds available to use with the Mod Melts, and a couple of different Mod Melts too. I received the ‘royal icon’ mold with the ‘milk glass white’ Mod Melts. They must know me so well. As soon as I saw those tiny crown molds I knew I had to make something for Miss M.

Using the Mod Melts and Mod Molds is really easy to do.

What you need to make these headbands:

• Mod Melts
• Hot Glue Gun
• Mod Mold
• Headbands
• Paint – Plaid FolkArt Metallic Peridot, Plaid FolkArt Metallic Inca Gold, Plaid FolkArt Sky Blue, Plaid FolkArt Parisian Pink, Plaid FolkArt Extreme Glitter Hologram

Pop one of the Mod Melts into your Glue Gun and wait for it to heat up.

It may look like I’m posting this next photo out of order, but I didn’t have enough hands to juggle the exact technique so let me explain. In order to get the Mod Melts into the tiny crevices of the Mod Mold, I found it easier to bend the Mod Mold to expand those tiny sections, add the Mod Melt then quickly place it on a flat surface so it didn’t begin hardening while the Mod Mold was bent out of shape.

I hope that makes sense. Wait until the bottom of the Mod Mold is cool to touch – approximately 8-10 minutes and pop your mold out.

Next, I painted each crown mold with two coats of paint.  The metallic paints didn’t need any extra sparkle, but I added a coat of the Plaid FolkArt Extreme Glitter to the pink and blue crowns.

Use a little of the leftover Mod Melts already in the glue gun to adhere the crown to the headband.

And just because Miss Personality was hamming it up for the camera.

Try out the new Mod Melts, you are going to love them.
