Several days ago, I promised you a video showing how to use objects you might have around the house to imprint polymer clay projects. Or you may want to use that interesting found object to embellish one of your creations.
I “found” all of these items while I was clean out and cleaning up. You might say I “re-found” them. Most are things I have collected over the years because they were interesting and I just knew one day I’d “make something from them”. ( I think there is a name for this illness……..most of you have it too I think!) Some are just everyday items.
Even my husbands work space didn’t escape the scavenger hunt……don’t tell him though, he gets scared when I venture into his garage with that look on my face.
Today, I’m working on samples and tomorrow or the next day I’ll post the video. Start looking around you, I know you’ll find lots of things to play with. Roll out some fresh clay and experiment. Or be ready with your treasures for when you watch my new video and we can experiment together.
Just remember, if you use something from your kitchen for clay, you won’t want to use it again for food.
Hi I am new at this. I would like to make a drawer handle for my kitchen cupboards. It would be like a
/…../ like this against the drawer..that is the closest I can get to telling you. I would like to cover something ? and put the screws into it so I can attach it to the drawer.
I don’t have a clue what to use. I want it in silver so it looks like the ones you buy in the store. I would like some help with some ideas. I may made the handles out of clay to look like light oak so it will match. I need something that is going to hold up… would hate for them to break. thanks any help would really make me happy Laura
The simplest thing to do, and what I’ve done at my studio, is to cover the existing handles or purchase inexpensive ones in the shape you want and cover with pc.
Ok thank you for your help :). I hopefully can find enough cheap ones to buy.
