Idea 1: Decorative basket
With the silicone in gun we can create very different shapes from other objects that we will use in mould. How do we want to make a basket you will need a bowl made of porcelain, glass or hard plastic. You must turn it over and apply all over the outside moisturizer. This makes the silicone that we are going to put on top to be easily detached once dry.
When you have your bowl infused with cream, create a grating with silicone. First vertical lines back and forth, and then horizontal lines around the bowl. When the silicone is dry you will see that it is very easy to peel it off.
To make the so you need baking paper o vegetable paper. On him you must do two Parallel lines with silicone, and those lines join them with diagonals towards both senses. This will create a grid strip. Glue the handle to the basket with the silicone itself.
Paint it the color you like best. In my case I have used spray in white tone. And you can now use it to decorate any space in your house. Put flowers, house keys, stuffed animals ...
Idea 2: Keychains
The Chains they always come in handy, and they're great even to give as a gift. These are very simple. About him baking paper o vegetable paper you should apply a thick amount of silicone in gun. Before it cools down, hit it key chain. Once cool paint it with nail polish.
For decorate them you have thousands of options. You can use stones, crystals, button beads, glitter, flowers ... Whatever it is, stick it with a little silicone, and you will have an original and personalized keychain.
Idea 3: wall hanger
This is a very Useful. In addition, as there are many silicone molds with different shapes, we can create many different designs. I have used a mold shaped like half ball. What you should do is fill the hole in the mold with the silicone in gun. Even being cold, enter the screw, so that when it cools it is well fixed. You will see that it will not fall off once the silicone dries.
When it has hardened you can paint both with spray paint As with nail polish.
