5 DIY Polymer Clay Jewelry Ideas

Create your own style easily. Add new totally awesome items to your collection of unique accessories. In this project, we'll make a stylish geometric design polymer clay necklace and ring. Let's make geometric beads for the necklace first. Start with shaping a ball in pink clay. Roll up a small cylinder. Cut it in half. Now form cubes or cuboids. The shapes may not be exact, but the parallel sides should be approximately the same. Pierce the details through using a thick needle or toothpick. The clay may deform, so shape the details with a ruler. Make geometric beads and clay of other colors by following the same steps. It's time to bake the details. The clay we are using should be baked at 230 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 minutes. Follow the instructions on your polymer clay package. While the beads are in the oven, make a ring. As usual, start with shaping a ball. Cut it in half. We'll use one semi-sphere. Cut off the round sides at an angle to make facets. Thus, we'll imitate a gemstone shape. You can apply a transparent lacquer coat upon the baking. Let's continue making the necklace. We'll partly paint the beads. Move the details around with thread to create an intricate pattern. Twist the ends to keep the thread in place. Choose the thread that doesn't leave fibers. Take a flat brush and bronze paint. Cover the thread, keeping the other sides unpainted. Remove the thread when dry. Give the beads a final coating of transparent lacquer, which dries to a smooth, clear gloss. Cover all the sides. Make a composition of the most beautiful elements. Put the beads onto thread. Tie a knot. Add multi-purpose glue to the pad of a blank ring. Attach the clay base. The smart geometric design polymer clay necklace and ring will emphasize your casual outfit by creating an abstract image accent. In this project, we'll share fabulous ice cone polymer clay jewelry ideas. We'll need polymer clay of rainbow colors, pastel, modeling tools and a brush, and gloss varnish for polymer clay. You can color the clay in a quick and easy way. Take a piece of white clay and cut it into several parts. Scrape some pastel of different colors. Yellow, crimson, red, and black. Dip a piece of clay into the powder of one color, red for example. Knead well to get a smooth color. Repeat for the other colors. We'll get the necessary shades for molding. Mix the colors to get interesting tints. For example, add brown to dark gray to get a deep shade. Take clay of a beige or milk color. Roll it out flat. Don't press too much to avoid it sticking to the surface. Take a sharp-edged plastic top. Press over to get a circle shape. Cut out an eraser to get a square stamp. Imitate a waffle pattern on the clay circle. Trim the edges with the plastic top. Remove the excess clay. Take the waffle off the surface with a knife. Prepare several dark and light details. Roll a square paper piece into a cone. Attach the end with multipurpose or hot glue. Mold the clay circles to the paper cones. Better place the cones in the freezer for 10 to 15 minutes. It will help them keep shape while we are molding the ice topping. The frozen clay removes easily from the paper. Scrape a bit of brown pastel. Brown the waffles using a brush. The cones look more natural and appetizing. Join white and pink clay. Twist to get lovely curls. Fill the cones to make a pink topping. Shape the topping by twisting the clay. Imitate melted ice cream with modeling tools. Make your favorite ice cream colors. Roll up dark brown clay into a thin strip. Cut it out to imitate chocolate flakes. Put it on as a topping. Now take a needle. Prick a hole for a pin to put on a French hook or a chain. Cover the ice cream cones with a special gloss varnish for polymer clay, which can be applied prior to baking. When the varnish is dry, bake the crafts. Follow the instructions on the clay package as for the baking time and temperature. Now we need French hooks and jewelry pins. Use the tools to make a pin shorter. Tuck the pin into the hole we have made with the needle. Open a loop on a French hook. Put it on the pin. Close the loop. Add a French hook on the other earring in the same way. Use another ice cream cone as a pendant. These splendid ice cone polymer clay jewelry ideas will let you get cool accessories to wear on a hot summer day. In this tutorial, we'll make a whale-shaped brooch in polymer clay. We'll need polymer clay of different colors, black, white, and blue. A brooch pin back and multi-purpose glue. Prepare a pattern. Draw a whale outline on thick paper. Make the silhouette recognizable. It resembles a tailed drop. Cut it out with scissors. Lay a protecting cover. Take white clay and shape a ball. Now roll out with a rolling pin. Done! Repeat for the blue clay. Take a big ball of black clay. Roll it out, but not too thin. Place the pattern on top and press down a bit. Cut out the outline with a craft knife. Remove the pattern. Define the shape. Cut out small white triangles. Repeat for the blue clay. Place the cutouts on the whale. Press the details over a bit. Bake the whale at 230 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 to 15 minutes. Add some glue to the brooch pin. Attach to the whale back. Done! This original minimalism style whale brooch will embellish your outfit or a handbag. In this project, we'll show some DIY ideas of a fingerprint necklace in polymer clay. To make a fingerprint pendant, we'll need polymer clay of white, two shades of blue, ochre, pink, and green color. Jump rings and braided leather cord with a clasp. Roll up a white polymer clay ball to make a pendant base. Roll out flat. You can use any appropriate object, even a glass. We're using a special rolling pin. Take a small piece of blue clay to roll up a ball. Roll out in a small circle. Put the blue circle in the center of the white base. The most exciting moment! Put your thumbprint! To make the fingerprint clear, thoroughly press down the central part of the blue circle. Prick the white base to put a jump ring on. Use a toothpick. Twist a little to make the hole wider. Let's embellish the pendant. We'll need polymer clay of different colors. Take small pieces of blue and pink. Mix just a bit to get a fusion of two individual colors. Roll up a ball. Make several two-colored balls in clay of different shades. You can choose any combination as we have taken the colors that match well. Okay! We've got a number of bright details. Attach the elements to the white base. Start a bit beyond the ring hole. Press over each ball to shape a tight string around the blue circle. The ball string shapes an open ring with a hole on top. Now you can bake the pendant. Look up the instructions to learn the temperature and time to bake your polymer clay. The clay we're using should be baked at 230 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 to 15 minutes. Take jump rings and braided cord. Open a ring and pass it through the hole. Put it on the cord and close the ring. The cute fingerprint pendant keeps a secret and thus can become a very special gift for a close friend. Let's make a fingerprint necklace. We'll need polymer clay of blue, pink, and ochre color. Two thin silk cords of lavender lilac and blue shades. Begin with making templates. Draw three five-pointed stars on thick paper. They can be of different size and not quite regular shape. Cut them out. This is it. Now take three polymer clay pieces of each color and roll up balls. Roll out flat. Use a small rolling pin. The circles should not be too thin. The size varies as the stars will not be equal. Put the templates onto the clay circles. Press over and smooth with your fingers. As we'll use a craft knife, be careful to lay a wooden board. Cut out carefully. Don't let the templates shift. Remove the paper. Pierce the stars to hang on rings. Use a toothpick. And the central element of the craft is a fingerprint. Put a thumbprint on the biggest pink star. Press down well to make it clear. Print your little finger on the smallest yellow star. Put a fingerprint with your middle finger on the blue charm. All the stars are ready. You can bake them now. Be careful to check the polymer clay instructions for baking time and temperature. We'll bake the charms at 230 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 to 15 minutes. Join the cords and tie a knot on the end. Put something heavy on the knotted end to keep in place. Twist the cord to the left. Hold tight to prevent unwinding. Turn around the second cord in the same direction. The cords are twisted tight. Remove the press and pull up the ends. Loosen the cords to twist a rope. Tie a knot on the other end. Cut off the excess. The details are ready. Let's assemble the necklace. Open a jump ring. Thread a star and close the ring. Put on rings on the other charms. Thread the cord rope. The fingerprint necklace is a unique piece of jewelry. You can either use your own fingers to make a special gift for your close friend, or put your baby's fingerprints to keep until the kid grows up. And to finish with, let's make a butterfly-shaped brooch in polymer clay. Make a cardboard template first. Roll up a small clay ball. Roll it out flat but not too thin. Use any appropriate tool.
