How to Make Snowflake and Star Squishies With DIY Molds

Quick answer

Use a star or snowflake Taba Squishy DIY mold set, mix and pour your material according to the kit instructions, and let it cure fully before demolding. The key is to work slowly and check for bubbles.

Step-by-step: making your star or snowflake squishy

1. Prepare your workspace: Cover your table with a protective sheet and gather the mold, mixing cups, and stir sticks from your kit. Read the kit instructions fully before opening any packets. A clean, covered surface prevents accidental spills and makes cleanup easier.
2. Mix the squishy material: Combine parts A and B in the ratio stated in your kit and stir slowly for the recommended time. Scrape the sides and bottom of the cup to avoid unmixed streaks. Slow stirring reduces air bubbles; incomplete mixing leads to sticky spots.
3. Pour into the mold: Pour the mixture into the star or snowflake mold in a thin, steady stream. Fill to the top without overflowing, and tap the mold gently on the table to release trapped air. A thin stream and tapping help prevent bubbles in narrow points.
4. Let it cure: Leave the mold undisturbed at room temperature for the full cure time listed in the instructions. Do not move or touch it while curing. Curing takes time; moving the mold too early can cause misshapen edges.
5. Demold and check: Once fully cured, flex the mold gently to release the squishy. Inspect the tips for tears or bubbles; if needed, trim any excess material with scissors. Demold only when the squishy feels firm and pulls away from the mold easily.
