I have been having more fun with polymer clay, this time I am making earrings. After finding some inspiration on Etsy, I decided to have a go at it. In my to do list are t-rex, cow, hippo, squirrel, and Totoro. Last night I made three pairs of Calcifer from the movie Spirited away.
The first ones I made are on the bottom, they didn't come out great, but I got better with practice.
I'm going to try and tackle a couple of the others listed above tonight and get the rest of the supplies tomorrow from Micheals. Like special polymer clay glue and earring posts. After looking online the best way I found to attach them are to bake the earrings, glue on the posts, then add more clay covering the back (so you end up having a clay to clay bond), and bake them again.
More earrings :-)
Squirrels
Cows
I also purchased the rest of my materiels that I'm going to need to make them into earrings. I bought earring posts and backings from Joanns, polybond glue and a gloss paint for polymer clay from Michaels.
