Cheap Chusions casting

            <div><p>Here's a cheap way to make the cushions, you'll need</p><p>1.- Silicone; 100% pure, the one you use at home for repairs<br>2.- Acrylic paint, this means water based.<br>3.- Glycerin pure, (six drops for every ounce of silicon) this is really cheap, you'll find it in drugstores, or maybe you already have it at home (Girls often use this for the hands and nails).<br>4.- Little container for the mix.<br>5.- Stick.<br>6.- Dish soap<br>7.- Gloves (vynil, latex, etc. depending on you)</p><p>So in the container add approx. 1 ounce of silicon, use few drops at the time of acrylic paint until you reach your desired color, use the stick to mix (acrylic paint blends well with the silicon).</p><p>Now you can add the Glycerin, be careful, this will accelerate the reaction on the silicon so it will harden really fast, you'll have like a 4 minutes window before it solidify.</p><p>Wearing gloves with your finger grab some silicon and cover the mold walls, this is to reduce the chance of bubbles, then add the rest of the silicon until you fill the entire mold.</p><p>If one ounce is not enough (And will not), prepare another batch, the silicon will stick to the previous layer, just be attentive with the color tone.</p><p>Finally, put a drop of dishwasher soap in your finger and rubber it in the top of the silicon while still fresh, this will help to smooth the surface.</p><p>With practice you'll have great results!!</p><p>IMPORTANT: Silicon have fumes, smells really bad, so make this in a well ventilated area!!</p><p>Post pictures if you use this method.</p><p>Regards!!</p></div>
