I wasn't wild about the toothpaste, so I emptied it out, washed the silicone container very well, dried it, and put it away. About a week ago, I noticed there was a white substance all over the outside of it, that appeared to be baking soda. Apparently the soda had penetrated the silicone, and slowly worked its way to the surface. It might be interesting to try adding ingredients that would crystallize, to your poly clay bottles, then set them aside to see if anything appears on the surface. Not sure I'll ever feel comfortable putting anything edible in contact with anything silicone again if it absorbs things that easily, but I'd like it if my experiment helped your experiment.November Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03179291556232859864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31223185.post-6942944148167021132018-02-25T16:46:35.689-08:002018-02-25T16:46:35.689-08:00This was so well written and thought out. Thank yo...This was so well written and thought out. Thank you for being willing to share your processes and experiments. I do hope you expound on translucent clay. Since I found this medium last year anything with the translucent and trying to recreate glass draws me in. Your pieces so far are lovely.bindijeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10397173490177279355noreply@blogger.com
