Transcript
Let's try and make this butter squishy from scratch. Literally from scratch. I'm super excited, omg! So first, we have to measure out equal parts of A and B. This is the color I'm going to be using. So I'm going to go ahead and do this and I'll be back. Okay, we got our solution in here. Now we just need to add our powder into here to get that yellow color for the butter. I'm just going to stir away. I just really hope that this works out. I can already feel it thickening up. So it's time to pour it into our mold. I really do hope that this dries fast though. Now I'm just going to coat the sides and the bottom of the butter squishy. I don't know if we'll need more layers. We'll have to see once it dries. But now it's time to make the top of the butter. Again, I'm going to measure out equal parts of A and B and then I'll be back. Okay, now it's time for the pigment. I was going to try and make an ice cream sandwich, but I don't know how I'd make the middle part and the bottom brown. So I'll have to figure that out. Okay, we're just going to dump this into here and coat the bottom because the bottom is going to be our top of our butter. I'm so excited for this. I'm going to make this a crunchy butter, you guys. I'm going to use a bunch of clay beads. Oh yeah. This is super. I'm not going to have to add lotion into it. I'm going to make this a crunchy butter, you guys. I'm so excited for this.

Okay, I'll be back once I feel like it's crunchy enough. It's not as crunchy as I'd like it to be, but it's okay. I'm going to kind of like shape this into this butter and then stick it into here. Oops, maybe I need too much. Okay, it is stuffed. Now we're going to put this over the top of it. Kind of need to align everything and smush it in everything because we have to put silicone over top of it so it can stay intact. Here's our butter. It's looking like. I'm actually so excited for this. Now we need to make some more silicone up so we can seal this together. Oh yeah. I'm so excited for this. Because I made it literally from scratch. That's just so amazing. Okay, I need to focus to seal this together. So I'll be back once I feel like it's sealed. Okay, here's our butter. I painted it. Do not judge me, but we have to wait for the silicone to dry and then the paint. So come back for part two. Okay, so I made up some more silicone. I'm just going to keep it clear since this is already yellow. I'm so excited to squish this. Because I made it literally from scratch. That's just so amazing. Okay, I need to focus to seal this together. So I'll be back once I feel like it's sealed. Okay, here's our butter. I painted it.
