Create beautiful finishes with depth and texture by using the NEW Decorative Molds. Have you tried our new Molds yet?! Don't feel overwhelmed! Join Blanca from Furniture With Imagination as she shows you a wonderful technique to achieve this look! What will you create?
Sheen and durability in a simple squeezable bottle.
Vintage Wood Mercantile Cerusing Wax is formulated to protect your finishes and give them the rich depth we love in a well-worn antique. This soft, buttery wax squeezes onto metal or wood surfaces and hardens to a clear satin patina. It pairs perfectly with your stained, painted, and raw wood pieces to protect and seal with a vintage sheen.
The beauty of antiques is that they have a story to tell. There is history between every layer of paint and within each spot of exposed wood. Cerusing Wax helps you create and protect these elements of age on your restoration projects. Our exclusive, squeezable wax is easy to work with while remaining extremely strong. Enjoy the durable, vintage protection that Cerusing Wax lends your piece without any color change to your finish.

Watch as Mary Corrado from Mary Corrado Interiors shows you how she added a touch of elegance to her antiqued mirror with our new Molds!
Step One
Start By Mixing Resin Part A With Resin Part B And Mix For Three Minutes. (If you want your Resin to be flexible only add half the Hardener instead of a 1:1 ratio). Once Three Minutes Is Up, Pour Mixture Into Molds.
Step Two
Let Dry Overnight.
Step Three
Take Super Glue And Glue Decorative Pieces Onto Piece. Let Dry Before Proceeding.
Step Four
Clean Entire Piece With Clean Slate.
Step Five
Paint A Base Coat With One Step Paint Color Of Your Choice And Let Dry.
Step Six
Add One Coat Of Cracked Gesso On Top And Let Dry
Step Seven
Choose Two Colors Of Milk Paint And Mix Each Color With Water And Stir Until Paste-Like Consistency.
Step Eight
Paint Onto Piece Over The Cracked Gesso (Mary used a lighter color on the Decorative Mold and a darker color on the rest of the piece)
Step Nine
Once Dry, Cover Piece With Antiquing Glaze. (Mary used a sponge for this)
Step Ten
Once Dry, Apply Light Antiquing Wax After Offloading Onto Cardboard. Let Come To Tack.
Step Eleven
With A Very Light Hand, Repeat Step Ten But With Dark Wax. Just Hit The Edges And Corners. Let Come To Tack.
Step Twelve
Finally, Use Dust of Ages And Apply Over Entire Piece.
Our silicone molds have a natural release and do not stick. Simply pour in your mixture of 2 parts resin with 1 part hardener, and mix well for 3 minutes. Pour into the mold and allow to dry overnight. Pop out your design and apply with super glue to your frame, furniture, or decorative object. The detail on our molds will be quite exquisite due to the depth in each. You can use these molds over and over again. Using the Resin recipe with only half the hardener will allow your designs to be flexible and be placed beautifully over curved surfaces.
If you prefer using air dry clay in lieu of resin, you will notice some shrinkage and cracking. Be aware that air dry clay will not give you the detail that you can get with Resin.
Amy loves usingDecorative Moldsfor baking: adding detail to cookies, cakes, etc. We suggest keeping your food molds separate from ones that you prefer to use for painting and creating.
This paint truly is a miracle and we are in love! Watch Blanca from Furniture With Imagination transform this chest with Miracle Paint. There are so many things you can do with our Miracle Paint. Scroll below to find out more...

Let Us Show You How To Make Custom Furniture With Beautiful Embellishments
Our NEW Fondant Molds pair wonderfully with our Acrylic Glacier Resin and Hardener mixture. The options are truly endless with 21 different Molds to choose from!
Step One
Measure Out Resin/Hardener Mixture and Mix
To make your final piece more flexible so as to apply to curved surfaces, simply pour in your mixture of 60% resin with 40% hardener and mix well for 3 minutes. Pour into the mold and allow to dry overnight. Pop out your design and apply with super glue to your frame, furniture, or decorative object.
The recipe to make the resin very hard and inflexible would be a 1:1 ratio of resin and hardener. Measure to ensure exact mixing ratios. Your working time is 20 minutes once mixed. Your gel time is 30 minutes. Allow the surface to dry for 6-9 hours. For crafting, your through dry time is 10-14 hours. We recommend letting it cure overnight.
If you prefer using air dry clay in lieu of resin, you will notice some shrinkage and cracking. Be aware that air dry clay will not give you the detail that you can get with Resin.
Once Dry, Apply Mesh Stencil Of Your Choice And Paint Gel Art Ink On Top Of Stencil With Squeegee. Once Gel Art Ink Is Applied, Remove Mesh Stencil And Let Dry
Step Five
Pop Out Your Design Then Apply Gilding Size. Simply Apply Gilding Size With An Artist Brush And Let The Solution Become Tacky (not completely dry) Before Starting Step Six
Step Six
Apply Gold Leaf Over Entire Surface Area. The Gold Leaf Will Cling To The Gilding Size. Then, Brush Off Excess With An Artist Brush
Step Seven
Once The Furniture Is Dry And The Hardware Is Ready, Apply Hardware Onto The Furniture And You're Done!

The Conner's have lived in their tutor style home for seven years. With three kids, they have outgrown their tiny kitchen. A wall needed to come down, which means Meg and Joe had to save as much money as they could. Meg and Joe headed to a local auction to get pieces. By doing this, they saved the Conner's almost $5,000!
Project #2: Sheree & Kevin Steward
200 year old house
The Steward's live in an almost 200 year old house. Meg and Joe fell in love with the "gold" that was built into this historic house. They had their work cut out for them as Meg and Joe tackled almost this whole house with a $20,000 budget.
