Clay tips from Sculpey:
Please make sure your work area is covered and you are not working on an unprotected surface. We recommend working on the Sculpey® Work ‘n Bake Clay Mat, wax paper, metal baking sheet, or disposable foil. Uncured clay may damage unprotected furniture or finished surfaces. Be sure to cover your crafting area appropriately.
Start with clean hands, unwrap and knead clay until soft and smooth, or condition by running clay though a Pasta Machine. We recommend using a designated machine for clay purposes only. When working with multiple colors, clean hands with soap and water or baby wipes(we have found that baby wipes work best) before switching colors. Shape clay, pressing pieces firmly together. Wash hands after use.
Instructions:
- Condition all the clays.
- Cut 2 white circles from the Igloo clay
- Cut one of the white circles in half
- Cut one red circle from the Cherry Pie clay. Cut the red circle in half.
- Cut one black circle from the Poppy Seed clay.
- Use a slicer to cut a strip from the center.
- Cut a small circle from the Poppy Seed clay and a smaller circle from the Igloo clay.
- Assemble the pieces. Place the white circle down. Add a half red circle to the top. Add a half white circle to the bottom. Add the black strip across the center. Add a black circle to the center and tip with the white circle.
- Gently press the pieces together with your fingers. Smooth the edges.
- Bake a 275 degrees F. 30-Min for 1/4″ thickness.
- Cool
- Attach a bail to the back with E6000 glue.
- Thread onto a ball chain necklace.
If you don’t have bails you could always poke a hole before baking.
Baking Tips from Sculpey:
Begin by preheating oven to 275 °F (130 °C). After you are done creating; for best results bake clay on an oven-proof surface such metal, aluminum foil, an index card or the Sculpey®Clay Mat at 275°F (130 °C) for 30 minutes per ¼” (6 mm) thickness according to package directions. Oven safe glass or ceramic surfaces are also acceptable for baking; however please note that the baking times may take longer as the glass or ceramic surfaces take longer to heat up. For best baking results, use an oven thermometer. DO NOT USE MICROWAVE OVEN. DO NOT EXCEED THE ABOVE TEMPERATURE OR RECOMMENDED BAKING TIME.
