A Little Dap Will Do Ya!

Oh, my!  I have found a new addiction!  And it is thanks to a dear friend!

You need to take a trip to the hardware store or hardware department in your local big box store.  You are buying Dap.  Yep.  Dap.  White caulking for your windows.  Pick up a spatula for the caulk while you are there.

Next you need to head over to the cake making supplies.  Pick out some molds.  I found some butterflies, lace, roses and doilies for fondant. 

Then the fun really begins.  All you have to do is squeeze out small amounts of Dap on the molds and press it in flush with the spatula.  Try to keep the edges of the designs as clean as you can.

Let the molds dry overnight.

Then carefully remove the Dap from the mold.  It pops out really easy!  If you have little edges they peel away easily!  You can embellish it, paint it, have fun with it!  

This was done with glue and Nuvo Gold Gilding Flakes.

There are YouTube videos out there that show different techniques you can use - resin (chemical reaction), hot glue, etc.  But I had fun playing with the Dap and it's very inexpensive!  You can attach them to your projects with hot glue or glue dots.  Now head on off to the hardware store...
