It would be awesome if you could use the bra, minus the duct tape as the negative boob form and have the silicone adhere to is at the same time??? Your wisdom on that pearlie?

In theory, yes, but I would be concerned that the rubber elastic in the bra might cause cure inhibition issues (always test first!), and in doing it separate, you could better place the casting onto the bra rather than mold and hope.

I agree with Pearlie. And, that way you still have the bra to wear
All that glitters is not gold,
Not all who wander are lost.
The old that is strong does not whither,
Deep roots are not touched by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be broken,
A light from the shadows shall spring.
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.
Thanks for the tips ladies

Wow it is looking so great!!!
I'm the other half of Perth Mermaids and I am working on one of the other designs we have come up with. Coral! Amelia and I live an hour away from each other and meet up several times a week for Mermaid stuff. We are working on this together but two people means we can work on a couple of ideas at once. I'm really excited about these!

So also spent today moulding the bra and sea creatures for the other idea I had related to the Coral. A reef top! Encrusted with different sized and shaped shells and creatures. I am now completey covered in plaster and clay!
Haha awesome work Jess. I spent my day eating cake at beach mwahahaha

I can't wait to see more!!!! Love the sea creature molds!!!
So I worked a bit more on it today then after two hours of solid work time the second boob was just not sitting right. I pulled most of it off and tried a few more times but just wasn't working for me tonight. I think I made the clay to thick compared to the other side so I will mush it back up and start again. I'd rather have something I'm 100% happy with instead of rushing it and being disappointed.

Good thinking.
I have the flu so I haven't been working on the Coral bra yet. Might try to do some today if I can stay upright!
Slowly but surely
