making 2 part slicone rubber molds

man...i love this stuff!!! now i am running all over my house looking for cool things that i want to "make a mold" of!!!! All you have to do is take equal parts of 2 different color putties and mix them together..(QUICKLEY) until they are a uniform color...then cover the object you want to make the mold of......wait about 10 minutes for it to set...and you have the same detail as the original in a mold!! now you can reproduce that "thing" as many times as you like!!!

i made molds of stamps.... charms...fancy buttons....my original face sculpt that i liked...blah blah blah....whatever!!

here are a couple of pictures of the molds and the dulpicates made. you can actually make the duplicate better than the original by tweaking the clay after releasing it from the mold...or by painting it...or using sparkley powders or glitz and glitter!!!
