Loved your video! I was a Pampered Chef sales person in the late 80's so have some info to share. A selling point about our stoneware was that it was fired at 2,000° and thicker than competitor's. Clay is pourous and can absorb then release back what it has absorbed so stoneware is not to be washed with soap, just soaked in water. Typically cookie dough was pressed into the mold but there was also a recipe of applesauce and cinnamon. Either of these could be the bits you found in your kiln.
I have a rooster cookie mold. Hoping it hasn't had any contamination from use before I bought it at secondhand shop. I looked to see if you'd done exploration already and found this video. Thanks! When I do get the colors needed, I will start the firing schedule at 200 and give feed back. Of all things, this may be a really cute one to produce! Fingers crossed.
Good luck! Here’s another one I did not too long ago… I Tried Another Cookie Mold to See if I Could Make it Work for #FusedGlass ruclips.net/video/f-tOmbyxQjY/видео.html
Very excited about trying new ideas and techniques, and your video motivated me to check for some of these molds to try! I am a fearless fuser- I love the artistry and materials science behind glass fusing! Thank you for posting this and as a new subscriber, I can’t wait to watch your other videos too!
I just found three of these pampered chef molds at my thrift store and was so excited to rewatch this for guidance... I had forgotten about your lackluster reveal 😂😂😂 we shall see how mine will fare!
Great video, as always. I also like the fearless fusing. Watching your videos inspired me to try a few "out of the box" things I have been wanting to try. I used my sandblaster to etch a leaf into an old pizza stone. Only got it etched about 1/4" deep so getting enough frit in the mold was a challenge and the first try was a bit lame. Second try worked better (I got one of the cake decorating tools - like I saw you use) the tool let me mound up frit in the middle which helped a lot. Thanks again for the videos, plan on hitting the thrift stores around the big city of Mineral Wells and Weatherford on Monday for molds to try.
Jamaison, I think your experimenting with frits, temps and ceramic cookie molds is fabulous. I learned alot from this video and from your success and cracked one. I appreciate your presentation and why should we pay such horrendous prices for molds when so much is in our thrift stores. Thanks again, Anne
Yes! I use these cookie molds all the time! They're great! Spray them with Zyp and fuse on!! Never had one break. It might have had something to do with whatever the stuff that came out in the pre firing was.
I liked the season mould, it lends itself to so many possible colours :)) I also got so excited when you unwrapped your circular mould as I have just brought that one from a charity shop last week, can't wait to see what you make with this one. I thought it lends itself to a wave. Will wait with anticipation until you decide :)
I fire porcelain dolls and when the original firing is not hot enough moisture is trapped in the piece then when fired at lower temperature the black spots we call mold comes out does not look good on a doll face but does not effect the quality of the porcelain. This could be the case with the stoneware molds
Thats a shame about the bear. I wasn't sure either how it would look. I had the same with a textured floor tile. There was a some silvering that formed when I prefixed it. Then it transferred into my glass on the next firi g and gave it the most amazing iridescent spot in the centre.
I liked the look of the bear and it saddened me for it to fail. Have you ever tried ceramic molds that were used to cast slip? I have some small one that I want to try to make jewelry pieces but never got around to it. Would you recommend that spray that you used or kiln wash? Thanks for sharing.
I have not tried those so I really don’t have any experience or advice to give. I feel like I read online that those are not meant for the high temperatures of a kiln? So I’m not sure if you would be successful or not, though there are some amazing designs out there of those. It would be fun to try!
I just found 2 of the Brown Bag Cookie Art molds. A bear, that is different than the one you have, and a Happy Birthday cake. I never thought to use them for this purpose. Obviously, I haven’t used them since 1986-1988, for edible use. I would like to experiment with resin for fun. This art medium reminds me of the metal framed shapes you filled with glass beads and baked in the oven. Popular back in the early 80’s, I am showing my age 😳 Thanks for this fun tutorial! If I found a small kiln at a yard sale or at an antique store (which are more junk shops, but my husband and I love going to) would it be a safe purchase? I live next to a locally owned pottery supply shop and they supply clay to the surrounding schools in our district. Sorry for my rambling… I am a crafter and artist that loves to use any new mediums and techniques
There are lots of great smaller kilns! Many are more intended for ceramics but you can often make them work for glass. Admittedly, firing glass in a kiln without a digital controller can be frustrating, as glass must be carefully heated and cooled through a ramping process that’s difficult to manage on a dial-switch controller. But not impossible!
Jamison, I am a newbie at glass art & just loving it! Most everything I've done is experimental. I really LOVE & appreciate your videos! I found a couple of these molds at my local. thrift store. Thanks for the tip! What ramp up temp did you use?
Not directly. You would have to make a cast of it with clay. After the cay is dry, use that to make a silicon mold. Then use the silicon mold for your resin.
I think several glass suppliers may sell these, but I got mine from The Glass Underground. www.shoptheunderground.com/products/metal-line-and-dot-applicator
@@JamaisonSchuler thanks! As I am in argentina, I need to find something similar. The mold’s material is ceramic isn’t it? Can I use cast (yeso) to do molds? I bought a microwave kiln and I am a total beginner!

Like the heart and in fact I have a collection of the brown bag molds. The bear would make a fun Christmas ornament.

I’ve done the same thing with a mold breaking, good to know I’m not alone with lessons learned. I can’t wait until your new videos come out!

I bought a heart one like that not long ago, back in February at a thrift store. Cool. I will see how you did yours.

Would you mind sharing your firing schedule?,
@@michellejardel3504 I use the automatic setting my skutt hotstart came with for full fusing. I think it's 300 per hour to 1450, hold for 10 min.
@@nygrl6102 I have the same kiln! So you full fuse and don’t have a problem? Great to know
Fearless fusing...love it! Nice experiment....thanks, Jamaison.

This is great! Thanks for sharing this fantastic video!
Another great video Jamaison. I was missing your videos. It’s been awhile. Thanks for being brave so I don’t have to be.
Love seeing your experiments! The heart would make a nice trivet .
Keep that bear head party of the mold!! That's cool

And now I have got to get one of those cone shaped frit dispensers.
I have the cat mold. Had to add more glass twice, lol.
Bear head would make great tree orn.

The bear would have been cute !
I’m guessing you will be drilling a venting hole in the base of the fluted bowl mold for slumping in to?

Welcome to fusing! I don’t ramp very aggressively, so likely just 300° per hour.
The heart is cool, too
thank you for sharing.
I do resin, so could I use resin in these? I know I'll have to use a different kind of product to keep it from sticking. Thanks for the inspiration!
Gosh, I have no experience with resin. Good luck!
Not directly. You would have to make a cast of it with clay. After the cay is dry, use that to make a silicon mold. Then use the silicon mold for your resin.
Did you ever try this again to find a schedule that works?
No, sorry. I really wasn’t that invested in it.
Where did you get your powder sifter? It’s awesome!
I think several glass suppliers may sell these, but I got mine from The Glass Underground. www.shoptheunderground.com/products/metal-line-and-dot-applicator
Can be bought anywhere that sells fusing tools. AAE sells these.
It is called a line sifter.
Thank you!
As always very informative. Seemed like a good idea, but as you said maybe not for you or me.
Hola! Si al molde del oso le hubieses realizado por detrás otra capa de agua+cuarzo+chamote+yeso y dejas secar, NO SE HUBIERA ROTO EN LA HORNEADA
Can these be used in a microwave kiln?
Sorry, I have no experience with a microwave kiln. So hard for me to say…
What type of product is zip?
ZYP -- a specific brand of boron nitride spray
@@JamaisonSchuler thanks! As I am in argentina, I need to find something similar. The mold’s material is ceramic isn’t it? Can I use cast (yeso) to do molds? I bought a microwave kiln and I am a total beginner!
@@chanouma I’m sorry, I don’t know for sure but I assume some kind of earthenware? I don’t have any experience with microwave kilns but good luck!
