This is the first thing I’ve made out of polymer clay (as an adult lol) and it was so much fun to make! I saw a video about making clay pop tarts and I want to try that but if anyone can think of easy mini foods for me to try making please let me know. Oh and if there’s any tips I should know based on this first project please tell me!

Rainbow-y window was achieved by gluing on some iridescent cardstock I found at the dollar store, moss was just glued on with mod podge.

Been sculpting on and off since 2013, but usually I've made dragons or Pokemon, never anything like this but I LOVE it so much!

the dreams of human babies every night. She doesn’t want to do this. However, if she doesn’t steal these dreams, eventually the sun will fizzle out and all of the human babies and all that’s ever existed on earth will cease to exist. At least she thinks that’s what they told her…

Souffle and premo color mixing

Hello, I'm looking for a website or file that shows what polymer clay (souffle and premo) colors I can mix to come up with new colors. I don't have the basic colors. For example, if I want to make sky blue using cobalt blue and igloo white and another color.

In a rabbithole of glaze experiments

Recently picked up polymer clay sculpting and I'm trying to achieve a "ceramic glaze" look with speckles and all the effects it gets with getting fired in a kiln.

Started experimenting and now it's 4 AM and I'm still going 🫩 The hyper fixation is real.

It's getting there though, going to probably combine the painted clay + speckles. What do yall think?
