I Love this, and really need to know how you pulled off making the ship's wheel. I have a First Impressions silicone mold that looks just like that, but can't get anything out without breaking. How did you do it???

Thank you! My mold is the First Impression mold as well and it is very tricky to use. I make sure it is well cornstarched and I use a 50/50 mix. I pop it in the freezer longer than normal and then pray. Lol! Most of the time it comes out ok. If one of the spindles does break, it is usually damp enough from condensation from being in the freezer that I can usually push it together and it will reattach itself. I just make sure they are good and hard before I attempt to handle them. Hope this helps!
