Casting a Pumpkin - DIY

Halloween is almost here and I wanted to practice some mold making for a future project! 🎃🍁 Hope you enjoy! 😄✨ Things you need: A pumpkin - real or fake, size and shape, you decide! 😄✨ Plastic pot - or something to make your mold in Cardboard - I used foam cord Glue-gun Silicone - I used RTV 70 HR, but you can use whatever type you want really Vaseline Sculpting tool - or what you have at hand, preferable metal, I also used a crochet hook Clay - I used Chavant Water - to measure with, and for the plaster Brush - for the silicone and vaseline, preferable a disposable one Wooden beads Masking tape Scale Bowl - for mixing silicone and plastics Wooden spatulas - or something to stir with Plaster - or gypsum, almost the same stuff Paper towels Superglue Wall filler Fine grit sandpaper Acrylic spray paint - Black as a base coat (If you're goring for a white finish, use that instead) Spray paint - in any color, I used copper and gold Patience Music: After All by Geographe ——————————————————————————————— Instagram:   / thecraftmaiden   Facebook:   / thecraftmaiden   Tumblr:   / thecraftmaiden   DeviantArt: https://thecraftmaiden.deviantart.com Pinterest:   / thecraftmaiden   Twitter:   / thecraftmaiden   ———————————————————————————————
