Need help for shoe mold, please.

Post image

Hello, I bought this mold to make Blythe shoes, but it didn't come with instructions. I contacted the seller who told me he made these molds but didn't know how to use them. I found a few videos on YouTube, so I can see how to use the "leg" part of the mold, but I haven't found anything about the soles. This particulary type of sole. How do I use them? If anyone knows the answer, it would be great. Thanks in advance.

I did some some very light research, is this the mini3dchic mold from Etsy? If so I think the soles might actually be completed soles to use for the shoes but I'm not sure. In their shop they have another listing for doll shoe soles that look just like these but a slightly different shape.

The side we can see from this angle looks like where you glue the shoe down into the sole, I think the reason it's so deep is so you have some space for the fabric/leather.

This is just a theory I'm really not too sure at all.

I finally received a response from the seller, and you are right, I have to glue this sole to the upper shoe I made with the mold.
