This is the new Teal Sculpey Premo – This color is so pretty! It’s bright and happy but with deep undertones at the same time. It blends wells with other colors and with specialty clay too. For this faux polymer clay turquoise, I blended it with Opal Sculpey Premo. The opal adds a kick or white and a bit of shimmer.
The opal color has flakes of AB film blended in the clay. Love this little sparkle.

In the video, I’m showing how to blend the colors by chopping and kneading them together. I’m also adding so gold leaf flakes to create some metallic texture.

Once you have baked your faux turquoise pieces you will be ready to string them up or glue them to create jewelry designs. The package of clay will have bake times. For Sculpey Premo, I baked at 275 °F for 30 min. per 1/4″ thickness.
I just love how the turquoise nuggets turned out! The pop of gold really goes nicely with the gold chains.
