Hey fam!! My name/links might be different than what I said in the video and that's because after four amazing years of decoden cases & three years on RU-vid, I've decided to pursue art in new ways 🥰 The description is updated to reflect the accurate accounts and links. Thanks for your support!
im getting my charms in tomorrow and then making a kiki and lala decoden case! im so excited but also nervous? lol. this vid helped me feel more comfortable with using silicone instead of the pre made stuff
Aw awesome! I felt like it was more forgiving personally! But I have also been working with silicone only for two years 🤷🏻♀️ Good luck tho!! I have a How To video too if it helps! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1NA2lAMqF6s.html
I think it looks super cute! 😍 I've tried several different types of deco cream and the main reason I prefer silicone is because deco cream can take up to 1mnth to completely dry 😱🤯
your puffs def came out better then mine with this kit i bought the same kit except in purple and pink. it wasnt to bad for my first case but i thought it would be easy since im a cake decorator in real life! lol next case i will def be using piping bags since i already know how to use those well. the amazon tubes were hard to use! ur came out really cute!!!
I'm so glad you did a video on this! I checked those out on Amazon and the reviews scared me off especially with the size. Seems you had enough but you never know, ya know? I have never done a decoden case but I've been researching for over a month. I finally bought some silicone and piping tip/bag. I was thinking I should practice on like a container top or something but I'm worried the piping tip will ruin or ill some how manage to dry out the silicone bottle lol idk idk. I started polymer clay recently which was the biggest motivation for me to want to try decoden! I can make my own lil charms and pieces for it. So, I just came across your channel and like others have said you are so helpful, I've learned more in 2 of your videos than I have in most of what I've watched so far. THANK YOU!
Ahh thank you so much! My next video is more tutorial based too for beginners! I haven't edited it yet tho so idk how helpful it'll be yet haha but yeah the Amazon stuff would for sure cover a smaller phone case but maybe not like a 13pro Max or something. You could practice with actual frosting! It's a little easier than silicone in my opinion but that way you could even scoop it up off the plate and pipe it again just to practice 😂
But also thanks so much again ❤️❤️❤️ I def wanna do more tutorial style things too especially because I'm moving and can't commit to doing custom orders and stuff again yet😭
I tried these once. Full on took a month to dry 🤣🤣defo silicone is the way forward❤❤the pink dried to an awful dark colour when it eventually did dry. But as they’re not regulated like real silicone. No one knows what is in them chemically. Defo stick to real whip😉❤❤❤
I tried with these decoden amazon kits and after it dried the charms started falling, and cracking. Horrible experience. I'm relieved to learn I was not the problem 😂 haha
Oh no.... it does dry pretty stiff and I could see charms falling off if they weren't "buried" in the whip deep enough. It's def not that easy to work with other than the easy setup and how it's made for you . I still liked the look of it tho for a change of pace
this is a very informative video, thank you for this. i was wondering about the fumes from the silicone itself. i plan on doing decoden in my bedroom where i do sleep in, and im concerned about the smell that lingers. i see that you don't use a mask or anything, so is it safe?
Nice! its more convenient since it comes with the tips and you don't need a piping bag or anything! It is just a little bit harder to work with but still super fun and I love how it came out
Definitely do it in a well ventilated area! I let the case dry away from me too though like once it's done it still smells so I try not to sit with it for long either
