Printing Notes
Silk filaments print best a bit hotter and slower than standard PLA — start at 225°C nozzle, 50–80 mm/s. Mechanical strength is a touch lower than standard PLA, so this is a display-piece material, not a functional-part material. Vase mode prints look stunning in Silk+.
Storage
Keep sealed with desiccant between prints. Silk additives don't change the hygroscopic behavior meaningfully.

Every time I look at these I smile. The golden hour color is spot on. Shipping was quick — got them in 3 days.
I was worried they'd feel cheap. They don't. The matte finish is the move. Already ordered another set. Jordan even dropped a handwritten note in the box.
Bought 6 sets for my sensory corner. Hold up great, kids love them. The teacher bundle discount is real and appreciated.
