I have purchased several molds and am finally getting around to prepping them for use. One of the direction sheets included suggested pre-firing @ 90F/hr up to 1470F, with no holding time and to let it cool on it's own. Other molds do not have any directions at all, but I was told by a sales person to just pray on the mold release and heat in oven to 400F after it had dried for 20 minutes. Do I need to pre-fire my molds? They are all pretty small. None of them are more than 30cm in size. I'm excited about all the possibilities with the molds but, frankly, am a bit intimidated and don't want to ruin them (or the glass) right off the bat. Janelle

Oh, he is just so cute! I love your color choices. Janelle

This is very beautiful. Great idea!

Wow! How cool is that?! I have a kiln that I purchased a year ago and am always looking for new ways to use it. There just aren't enough hours in the day to try all the wonderful techniques and things you can do! Every time I open the lid, it's like Christmas, openning a gift. I really love this design. It made me smile. Janelle
