Glitter always sinks in molds!

[Peggy]

I have been trying to keep a small amount glitter scattered throughout my pieces. However, much to my dismay, it was always sinks! This leaves a thin layer of glitter in the bottom of the mold and none suspended. Has anyone figured this out? It’s driving me bonkers! My goal is to have a speckled effect throughout the whole piece instead of a saturated look.

Hi Peggy,

You need to use a small micron size, lightweight glitter. The Stampendous microglitter is what I like to use. You can find it in several colors in our store here:

Thank you, Ms. Katherine! I will look into that!
