I HACKED Elmer’s Squishies! #satisfying #diy

Just a PSA, when mixing products you’re not quite sure work together harmlessly, be sure to wear protective gear in a well ventilated room— you never know if the stuff you mix might produce fumes or turn out harmful to your skin etc.

Doing a quick search, deadener appears to be comprised of organofunctional siloxane/silane, which appears to be a combo of silicone, oxygen, and a carbon-containing compound. Digging further, it looks like they’re used in healthcare, cosmetic and hair products, as well as other products. I did find an article discussing the silane in rapeseed oil, but I would NOT experiment with it personally without the proper chemical training.

The elmers' squishy characters looked like they were so afraid of making the characters "too girly" that they accidentally designed characters with zero personality at all.

I love that you use the same octopus mold for so many of your videos. It makes for an excellent way to compare things across videos 😊

hmmm my theory is that deadner is probably cured silicone made from small chain R groups (since the texture you described of it being oily and but odorless matches the desc of liquid silicone too) and each company sells it's own patented version which is why there's little information as to what the solution is. as the SiO part of the silicone is still allowed to chain up as is having a variety of R groups in the silicone would affect the final texture, could totally be wrong though!

I often work with polymer clay, and i suggest to you to experiment to make squishies softer with liquid polymer clay softener.The two liquids look very identical, both with no smell and oily

“It’s just a toy” What moriah elizabeth would say: ”they’re not toys, they are more of collectibles”

Hii Maqaroon! I saw an ig creator (blanking on their name I’m sorry) put flocking powder onto silicone squishies to make them look plush-like. I think it’d be a cool idea to try since it’s a way to get rid of the stickiness while giving it a whole new look. I’m curious to see how long it would stay on the mochi squishy too

You can make paint that doesn’t come off easy by mixing clear gorilla glue and paint. You want the ratio to be as much glue as possible. I l dip the toothpick into the paint tube and mix that into a glue drop. I’m sure other glues would work but this is what I had.

I wonder if she's ever considered toy and craft design positions, she always finds ways to elevate these kits and this is whay i appreciate so much. Im a ling time viewer, like second sock plushie video viewer. I have stuck around for all these years because i truly love fhis detective detication 😅💕

I love Elmer's Squishies!!! I still have some left to make from last year. Thank you so much for the helpful tips!!!😇😉🥰

So they didnt stick to your silicone molds? 🤔 ive always thought that silicone will stick to silicone no matter what 😮

I always appreciate you bringing science to these crafts!

So cool and informative!

I always watch your video because the way you speak is so satisfying 😊

Joanna! I have a method i use for making clear, glittery squishies in the microwave with a perfect mochi texture that Id love to see utilized in a video! It makes the most aesthetic peices! You just have to buy either some clear glitter squishies or some clear squishy cubes if you want a totally clear peice (ill warn you, they are a bit harder to find than the glitter squishies but totally worth it!) Cut off any paint to preserve clarity and melt them down! You can even add some extra, loose glitter in before pouring them into the mold if youre quick enough! Just wanted to share this with you because i know you love clear, glittery aesthetic things! Let me know if you see this comment because id love this method to be used in a video, please tell me if you plan to use it! ❤

Your videos are pretty fun to watch ❤

I love your channel!

I just finished a round of quads and this was a perfect chill off

I love your crafts❤
