I am trying to find out where i can find soft copper to be molded and silver plated. or how i go about making copper moldable.
You can pick up very thin gauge copper at places like Michael's or Hobby Lobby that is used for embossing. However, if by molded you mean cast, the alloy for copper is not conducive for this approach. Simply put, the metal is too dirty when heated to provide a decent cast piece. Alternatively, if you wish form the metal into some sort of sturdy vessel, or other three dimensional forms, I recommend taking a class in metalsmithing. Such classes are typically offered at the college level in the art department and can be found listed under metals or jewelry.
Try a craft store. Pencil out your design on paper, put the paper over the copper and use a blunt object such as the end of an artists paintbrush to trace out your pattern design. Remove the paper and use a Popsicle stick to gently rub out the places you want indented.
