Gloria Uhler of domestic-divaonline is a really artistic particular person. I’m in admiration for her progressive method to many craft disciplines.
She is a much better polymer clay artist than I’m. I beforehand featured her nice tutorial on methods to combine polymer clay with my wooden frames. She had stuffed the open house with the clay.
However as you possibly can see from her newest flowered wooden earrings tutorial, you wouldn’t have to fill the house totally! She used my newest laser wooden cuts – a spherical hoop model. The additional little bit of wooden offers an even bigger floor space for bonding the clay to the wooden. I shall be slicing extra of those.
I really like how she left the pure wooden shade displaying. I like to recommend you seal the wooden in addition to the polymer clay half. You’ll be able to paint or stain should you choose. See my previous put up on The best way to Sand, Paint, Stain and Seal Laser Minimize Jewellery Designs for suggestions.
Gloria used translucent polymer clay to bond her polymer clay. She baked each the wooden and the clay collectively. You may as well bake the polymer clay items individually and glue it onto the wooden.
Notice that wooden can have various quantities of moisture relying on the place it’s saved. So there’s a likelihood the items would possibly warp within the toaster. So pre- bake the wooden sandwiched between two items of tile to drive out the moisture and forestall warping. After that, you possibly can proceed with Gloria’s bonding technique.
I additionally occur to have smaller oval hoops which remind me of the Swinging Sixties therefore the title, “go-go”. Anybody wish to see completely different shapes beside ovals and rounds? If that’s the case, let me know within the feedback under.
You need not use hoops! Any of my strong shapes like these ovals can even work with polymer clay sections. (These specific cuts match 40 mm x 30 mm digital art work).
See extra provides together with new wooden cuts in my retailer. They’ll operate as foundations for polymer clay work. Simply seal them or stain/paint them to go with polymer clay additions reminiscent of these fast examples of mine :
Somewhat than including an outlined form, you would additionally reduce textured clay like this concept of mine :
Gloria made me chuckle when she shared one thing she noticed on-line someplace :

A. – Crafting.
Q. – What occurs while you run out of craft provides?
A. – You’re clearly not a crafter. : )
