Weighted cat is a warm pal plushie

Ear defenders were bought in person

Chew stixx is from the sensory university

Tangle palm classic is from Amazon

The sensory bottle on the left I made myself,and put cutesy stickers on the back

The rat plushie is from citrine mouse

The smaller sensory bottle is from thecalmmom

The weighted lizard is from the sensory shoppe

Squishy dice tutorial [text only,for now]

What you'll need:

The dice mold(you can find the 3d model to print here)

A liquid silicone kit

Something to dye your silicone with. Preferably pigment powder,but liquid silicone dyes or watercolor paints in a tube will work aswell. Just don't add too much liquid colorants,or you'll disrupt the curing process!!! that's very very important!

A mixing stick to stir up the silicone

Two plastic cups(preferably measuring cups. Remember,only use plastic for this one because silicone will stick to silicone!!)

A cup of water

Gloves,if you need to use them for crafts

A flat surface to work on

Some extra silicone made in a constrasting color,to fill in the dice's numbers with

Some electrical wiring tape to cover the mold with(just incase,so you can avoid silicone leaks)

Steps:

Assemble the mold parts together.

Put tape around the edges of the mold. Cover up any spots that don't fit as tightly

Pour equal amounts of silicone into the two separate cups respectively,part a and part b

Combine the two parts into one cup,scraping the sides with the stiring stick to get all of uncured liquid silicone out into just that one cup

Add materials that you're using to color the silicone

Take your mixing stick,and stir up the mixture. You will have to do this for about 6 or more minutes,depending on the type of silicone kit you use. Some cure faster than others,so just watch out!

Carefully pour the mixture into the mold,do this slowly and try to pour it slightly high above the mold so it comes out thinner(it's much less messy that way,you'll avoid over filling the mold hopefully this way)

Don't touch the mold for the estimated curing time,just leave it be after that previous part.

Try to leave it alone for a few extra hours just to be safe,then poke the silicone gently with your finger. If it's hardened to the touch and won't stick to your finger at all,then congrats your squishy should be done!

Very carefully unmold your squishy. Test it some more to make sure it's fully cured. Expose it to the air for a bit,then it's time to make your extra silicone for the numbers!

Mix up equal amounts of a tiny bit of silicon,then add your pigment or liquid dye.

Mix this up extra well,then carefully use a toothpick or paint brush to add on the numbers in silicone.

Let each side cure first before making another batch to color the other numbers,so that you can rest the unpainted sides down on the table to let your extra silicone cure.

Once everything is done curing,carefully give your stress ball a test squeeze.

Congrats! You've just made a very cool dice stim toy.

Betcha didn't know these trinkets once were treasures. A once popular toy enjoyed by those born in the 1900's, survived the test of time as a toy for fidgeting, ornamental piece, and fashion accessory.

It's difficult to find 100% handmade versions of these quirky multi-functional toys in 2023. Luckily, I've spent the last half decade crafting these to keep this traditional handmade piece alive.

Please consider browsing my Etsy shop. I offer these in 100's of colours (including custom requests), and my reviews showcase how customers have discovered uses for this in their own personal way.

My Etsy bestseller listing below:

PS: As highly requested, international customers can now enjoy lower shipping costs, making Meraki Sphere more affordable than ever, overseas. :)

Emergency Chew Stim

Okay so i figured this out when i forgot to take meds one day and was literally chewing my arm in the middle of chemistry class and my friend was like “hey isn’t your bracelet the same thing as those chew necklaces?”

He was talking about these little wristbands. They’re silicone, which is the same stuff chewelry is made of. Let me tell you, that was a lifesaver. I ended up stringing it on the necklace I was wearing so I didn’t have to hold it

I feel like this can be really helpful for people like me who don’t need to chew often and don’t want to wear chewelry when 99% of the time you won’t need it and it can also be covert if you’re not using it to chew on. I’d say just wash it or at least just rinse it off frequently so its clean in the case that you might need it. Hope this helps someone!

When I say my products are 100% handmade, that's only the surface. They're also 100% showcased, 100% processed/organized, and 100% packaged/shipped by myself as well. I find that some people don't realize that a small handmade business is more than just making the product. It is also promoting it on your socials, organizing ways and processes to manage your orders, financial accounting (very important), packaging, and customer service.

I think this level of work and detail shows in my reviews as customers see more than just the product, they recognize the raw passion that goes into every order that goes out. :) ETSY | WEBSITE
