For the LOVE of a Man... and a GOOD PRANK!



It's April Fool's Day and I'm sharing a little devilish project today! All last week social media was buzzing with ideas and photos of creative pranks for April Fool's Day. I came across a cute prank which involved painting a bar of soap with clear nail polish to seal and replace in the soap dish... resulting in soap that doesn't work. LOL!!!

This is so hilarious...
and I'm taking it one step further!


I certainly don't have the patience to sit and methodically paint a bar of soap with nail polish - BUT - with my Amazing Casting Products... I could pull this one off! I thought this would be the perfect prank against my husband. Timing couldn't have been better! Over the weekend I hijacked our halfway used bar of soap from the shower.


I have my Amazing Mold Putty at the ready to mold a dummy bar of soap casted in a mixture of Amazing Casting Resin, Alumilite Pearlescent Powder, and Fluorescent "FLO" Green Dye.


Can you tell the real from the FAKE???


Before molding your bar of soap in Amazing Mold Putty – make sure that the soap is dry and totally free of moisture {meaning not fresh from the soap dish}. I prepared a batch of Amazing Mold Putty following the easy instructions and pressed around my bar of soap. Then I prepared a batch of Amazing Casting Resin mixed with Alumilite Pearlescent Powder and two drops of the Fluorescent "FLO" Green Dye... when cured, this gives a perfect minty green with a bit of variagated swirls – just like a real bar of soap. In about 15 minutes my cast resin duplicate was cured and ready for it's debut!


After a little sanding with emory board, I sprayed the resin piece with olive oil spray, then buffed with a towel to mimick the sheen of the soap and to gloss up the sanded edges. It even weighs about the same as my used bar of soap original.


I'm really impressed with how real this fabulous FAUX soap looks and feels. I made the swap and replaced the faux soap in the shower. Bahahahahahhahaha! It totally fooled the hubs. It's not often that I'm the one pulling off a prank... there's nothing like some good harmless fun!

Thanks for dropping by... hope you have a fantastically fun day! Sb ;)
