This is pretty silly, but it gets a good laugh out of most people.

It's incredibly easy to make. You need a mouse trap, some oven-bake polymer clay, a little paint, and few basic crafting tools.

The type of mouse trap I used has a little plastic paddle that works as the bait for catching mice. The new bait was built directly onto this existing paddle.

I cannot believe I'm dignifying this with a comment ;) but as always, your instructions are clear and thorough. I also must admit to being quite relieved that the feature element (elements?) was/were not created using the rather disturbing novelty item "gentlemen" have been known to hang from the tow hitch of their pickup trucks (yes, a somewhat similarly-shaped part of the male anatomy) LOL

I appreciate the delicate balance between attention to detail and good-natured humor, so while I rib you a bit, (as I would be remiss in not doing so on behalf of my gender, at least as a token gesture) I laud you for being as tasteful as one can be in the execution of such a creation.

One detail did occur to me as I perused your fine instructable. Perhaps a bit of faux lace trim along the upper edge of the brassiere would lend a touch of fashion? Of course Victoria's Secret is well known for a more streamlined intimate garment, so that might cheapen the over all effect. We definitely would not want to be low-brow about this.

I do think the snap of the trap would have been a cute addition, although causing actual harm takes it out of the realm of humor, hence rigging only the sound effect might be more in line with the tone of the art piece ;)

LOL
You remain my favorite 'structor.
