Fun with Silicone Putty!

Look mom!!

I just made my own silicone putty mold!

And it was easy!

Slimy, yes but hard? NO!

First I chose this cool "jade" dragon medallion.

Then, I got out my silicone putty components (the white's the base and the pink's the catalyst) and kneaded them together.

Then I caaaarefully squished my dragon medallion into the putty and left it to set up. It takes about 20 minutes to start turning all rubbery but it was in the A/C so I left it in a hour or two longer to make sure. Check out the detail, kimosabi!

Then I poured in some dark chocolate couverature and presto! Voila! Hidden Les, Chocolate Dragon!
