I have some vintage glassware that includes some little cups similar to that. I was told they are sherbert cups. Since I don’t serve sherbert very often, I use them for salsa, olives, nuts, sprinkles. . .

[@nancyschaillee7656]

Looks like it may have been one of a set for serving nuts? I have six green glass ones that I've always used with pistachios, etc. ♡ I just looked up 'glass nut bowls', and it's a thing ;)

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

Really!? That’s interesting 😁

[@hollylowery26]

They are vintage palette cleansing bowls. Most commonly used for sherbet. People would serve something to cleanse your palette between courses at a fancy dinner. To prepare your mouth for the change of flavors/courses. Lemon sherbet was most commonly served. Orange sherbet was also popular. Citrus fruits work well at removing stronger flavors that could carry over to another course and alter the true taste of the course. Who wants to eat a decadent dessert that tastes like onion or garlic. 🤔 I love the turtles! 🐢 😍

[@RebaHansen-wl4mq]

It is so tiny, I remember my Grandmother had tiny glass similar to this and they were used for salt, with a small salt spoon at the dinner table, haven’t seen one for over 50 years, I might be wrong, but your tutorial very well done, and the gorgeous jewelry, and the resin cup, outstanding!

[@katrinthorsdottir7514]

It’s a little ice cream dish. Perfect for a single serving. Also, silicone mold release spray would help with the demold.

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

Thanks for the tip!

[@miniscenesgb]

Well done, that always was going to be a tricky shape. Demoulding is easier if you put a void in the top of the glass - it has a lot more "give" when you demould then

[@kimclayton5814]

That is pretty little dessert/fruit cup. Love it

[@Kathy-Carr]

I love this idea! Everyone will have something similar around their house they can do this with. Check your Resin for food safe properties. Thank you!! 🙏

[@lynnebazyluk2226]

Michelle, I remember my mom having a set of those clear glass cups. She used them to serve hard boiled eggs for our family. You did an amazing job! Thank you for teaching us.

[@funo6581]

Great video, very informative. I didn’t know Let’s Resin had a soft silicone. I’ve watched Robert Tolone on YT, he’s retired but, he designed and made the Disney character figurines for the Lion King. I’d watched his channel for a couple of years before he mentioned that.😆 He has a lot of mold making videos. When it’s necessary to cut the silicone, he recommends doing it in a jagged line. That way it fits back together sort of like a puzzle piece, that’ll help to prevent a big seam line in your resin piece. Your little dish and jewelry pieces are beautiful!

[@fairyspunfibers9098]

That's adorable! 😍💕 Jewelry came out so nicely! ❤

[@kdscraftcorner]

I'm leaning towards it being an aperitif glass, aka cordial glass, aka liqueur glass. We have a set of crystal cordial glasses that belonged to my great-grandmother. At least, that's what she called them. They are about that same size (I'm guessing based on how small it appears in your hand) and everything. My great-grandmother had to entertain often because my great-grandfather basically ran an entire mill village on behalf of the mill owner. He also drove the steam engine for the mill. Trains were his true love after his family, of course. If not an aperitif, then I would say a sorbet glass. But those are usually a little wider and taller, I think. What are the measurements? That might help. ❤❤❤

[@PLHcrafts]

I have some of these cups in plastic. It's a dessert cup and you can put any dessert in it. I use it for jello, pudding and ice cream 😊. ✌️❤️🤣 peace, love and happiness

[@edithallen7989]

That is super cute, Michelle. I need to have a try now. Thanks for sharing ❤❤❤

[@19AUR63]

I inherited a set of 100-year-old cut crystal glasses. They look similar to your little glass. Here in Germany we use them as liqueur glasses for sweet liqueurs which are only consumed in very small quantities. But maybe I will use mine for icecream or other desserts now .

[@MollyHelfgott]

For something shaped like that, I may split it for ease in removal! Turned out pretty!❤❤❤

[@charlenelesher1198]

Before salt and pepper shakers...these little glasses were added to the dinner table. You could easily get a pinch of salt or a dash of pepper. It was all very fancy like having an entire set of silverware...salad fork....main fork...desert fork...etc. You can find these antique stores or thrift shops.

[@lindao7887]

I have some black holographic but didn't know what to do with it, thank you! Turned out really pretty! 🖤

[@Lilyanne0684]

So adorable, love it! I feel your pain! The amount of times I change my mind on what I am putting in resin is just ridiculous 😂

[@pink.penguin]

It's a duck egg cup .. it's an egg cup, but just a little bit bigger for duck eggs 🥚 .. my nan had ducks so we all had egg cups .. 😊

[@rawniemoon]

Might it be a fancy egg cup? I mean on the TV that's what it looks like or what it reminds me of anyway.

[@suewarnes9469]

Great tutorial! Thank you Michelle. 💐. Cute cup!❤

[@persephonekraker2399]

They are dessert glasses. There's a dessert people ate in the like the 50s I wanna say that was kinda like a shaved ice kinda dessert that had fruit in it and sometimes like coconut and stuff and it looks like little kinda shards of ice. It was make in like a cake kinda pan and frozen and to plate it, they used like a spoon and would scrap across the ice stuff in the pan and that's how they hot like the little shard of ice looking pieces. That's what those cups remind me of because they are dessert cup.

[@c.a.chambers68]

Its cute looks like an egg cup to me - but lovely + thankyou for showing how to make a mold - been thinking about trying but putting it off as i dont know if i want to go down that road with doing so many other things in my week 😂 🤣😂

[@julieashton8877]

Wow! That was some hard work, but AWESOME!!

[@fairyspunfibers9098]

That looks like sorbet dish, OR a very large salt cellar meant for use by everyone at the table (rather than teeny-tiny individual ones), or for on-the-range-top use by the cook. I have tiny, square salt cellars with tiny glass spoons, and tiny sterling silver spoons. They're about 1"x1"x½" tall. Hmmm! Wonder if I should make molds from them?!?

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

Try it!! But use the softest silicone or you won’t get it out with out cutting it open.

[@georgianacairns145]

Thank you so much for this tutorial because I wanted to make a mold. ❤ this came out to nice.

[@joycepugh5347]

Nice ty - it looks like an eye glass - when you have something in your eye - you fill it with water & hold it up to your - to flush out what ever you have in your eye

[@elizabethdunn5734]

Thank you for this! I didn't realize that there are different hardnesses of silicone, even though I have pre-made molds of all kinds. (Duh) This explains why my attempted cast of a dragon figurine went so badly. But, hey, at least we can cut up failed molds and re-use the silicone! Lesson learned. Thank you! Also, I was inspired by your succulents video the other day and received the molds yesterday. Weekend project! :)

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

Glad it was helpful! Happy to share the little I know 😁

Are these food safe resin bowl?

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

This particular one is not I did not use my food safe resin for the demo

[@userDJCmomma]

Very interesting. It would make a great air plant dish.

[@ReneeB5]

I think the whole mold making thing is super cool! I have not taken the leap yet to make one, but when I do I’m gonna come back & watch your videos again prior. I learned another new thing in this video… the part about there are different softness levels of the silicone. This is very helpful to know. I also need to do more with inlays. I think I’ll order your shell inlays and do something with those… Love the jewelry!!! 🩵💙

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Mamas-Madhouse-Creations]

That mold is so sweet. I've used those cups for hard/soft boiled eggs as well as fruits. That black holographic glitter is stunning. Love the inlays. The jewelry pieces are really cute. ❤

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

Thanks!

[@debrasmith3764]

What a great tutorial from start to finish !! The little cups I believe are sherbet dishes. Love the black glitter. The jewelry & inlays are great 👍. Thank you Michelle for all your help & tutorials that you do to help us learn !!! I really appreciate it

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

Thank you ☺️

[@GFHill]

Hey kiddo, I have a mold making question. I play Battletech, and I would like to make my own molds of them. How Would I manage that?

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

Oooo I don’t think you can do that because of the gap between the legs would be full of silicone and wouldn’t be able to unmold.

[@WendyBurtenshaw-yl2hs]

I love it. Well done Michelle for your mammoth effort and sharing your expertise. I am going to try again to make my own moulds.

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

You can do it!

[@traceywhite2480]

We would use the glass for a prawn cocktail starter🎉

[@StephanieDwyer-t7y]

I love the jewelry. Very pretty that diamond glitter is beautiful. The sherbet cup turned out very cute.you did a great job on the mold. I also think your inlays are pretty.

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

Thank you so much 🤗

[@maryellenrichards391]

Hey Michelle, I’m just wondering if you can use mold release on the original piece before your pour the silicone rubber in to make the mold? If you cannot do that you can spray to mold with mold release to help it release more easily.

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

I’ve never pre sprayed it before as I’m worried it would alter the shine on the silicone, but after may work to loosen it up. 🙂

[@gerripeter484]

Very interesting how molds are made turned out awesome 🤩

[@louisebernard5780]

[@MisguidedKreations]

A Halloween cup is what I thought about when I seen it.

[@ZippedUpKitz]

That turned out really cute! Trying to get those things out of mould is a nightmare because of the suction created by the concave of the cup against the silicone… I bet if you can get a hold of the stem and then twist it around with the soapy water or alcohol, it might be easier to get it out of there! Nice job!!!!

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

Yes I should have twisted it I agree 👍

[@Ali-H3444]

The struggle is real 😆 🤣 Is that mold going in your shop? It's cute, but I'd be splitting it down to the stem if I get one.

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

Yes, it’s linked below 👇

[@AprilBlack-v1c]

@glitznglitterbymichelle1 I grew up with my grandmother having some of those an that's what she told me they were for

[@piranaha157]

When making larger molds what can you use on th bottom of the mold? Contact paper or plastic?

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

Yes I use transfer tape or vinyl or shelf liner.

[@kimclayton5814]

Could you use an airbrush and gently blow air between the mold and resin to help loosen and break vacuum seal?

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

Good idea!

[@neecey_arts]

This is so cute. Now I want to make molds! 😂😂

[@quietspacearts]

if you have to slit the side do zigzag slits as better in closing back up with no leakage when you refill with resin

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

Great tip!

[@katrinao]

I have a mini glass I want to take a mold of. I been told I'm going to have to do a 2 part mold for it. I have no idea how to do that. I've done the odd basic flat one and I made a candle shaped plug to put in the bottom of ornaments so I can just sit them on the candles.

[@glitznglitterbymichelle1]

There are videos out there to show how to make a 2 part mold, I personally have never done one.

Aren’t you creating extra bubbles by stirring so fast?

When you use glitter, it really doesn't matter because the glitter hides the bubbles. Otherwise, I would have put it through my bubble remover for sure.
