Product placement

Dr. Squish Squishy Maker: it is used to make squishy toys. It acts by allowing the user to fill a squishy skin with materials and then suck the air out to form the squishy. It is visible and operated in the video. Removing it would change what happens in the video. Buttons: they are used as a filling for the squishy toy. They appear in a bag and are then placed into the squishy. Removing them would change what happens in the video.

Transcript

does it crunch? does it crunch? I love this and everything about it. Not the squishy, but the act of crunching something soft but also a little crispy. I don't know how to explain it. You guys know how much I really like my crunchy squishies and how I've been doing everything in my power to make them at home. I made some with rocks, I made some with trash. I made them with those little resin charms. So I'm just going to make this a series. Welcome to: MEG DIY crunchy squishy series where I find different things to fill squishies with to make them crunchy. Not exactly like this, because I feel like things can always be done better and differently. So in today's episode, we're using buttons! I did not get this idea by myself, by any means. A lovely commenter suggested this and I thought it was a great idea. So we're going to try it. Today I will be using the Dr. Squish squishy maker just so that it's easier to make the squishies along with the buttons. I'm also going to have some air dry clay to make them extra, extra sticky. I'm just going to put the squishy skin on this thing and watch the magic. It's like blown up. Now for the insides. Air dry clay. And I'm just going to put a lot of lotion in it. So that it's extra, extra sticky. I'm just going to mix that all together. I made it extra sticky. I don't like that. Let me go wash my hands. I'm going to put some buttons in here. I love buttons. I'm just going to put this in there. I thought I just wanted the small ones, but a lot of the big ones got in there too. I'm going to shove it into the squishy skin now. And then we'll give it a crunch. So there we have it, our button filled crunchy squishy. Let's give it a crunch.
