Autumn Leaves Bracelet Materials

To make a bracelet, you will need the following materials:

1. Clay bars

2. Rolling pin

3. Impression, or in professional language mold, of the required form

Knife

4. Metal ring as base

5. Liquid polymer gel

6. Acrylic paint

7. Sandpaper

8. Polymer Clay Varnish

Work process

1. The clay must be kneaded and rolled out.

2. With an impression in the form of autumn leaves, we make depressions in the clay. Cut out the shape along the edge. The number of leaves depends on the size of the print.

3. The edge of the leaf can be made beautifully wavy, but this will take more time, since it is not easy to do it with an ordinary knife or blade.

4. Glue the leaves on a metal base. You can use any shape for the ring. This could be a beverage can or condensed milk, no matter. The main thing is that the surface is smooth. To keep the leaves better, they should be glued with a liquid polymer gel.

5. Place the product in the oven for 20 minutes at a temperature of 120 degrees. In order not to spoil the shape, it must be held in the oven until it cools completely.

6. When the bracelet has cooled down, paint over it with acrylic paint.

7. When the paint dries, we carefully sand our future bracelet with sandpaper.

8. We cover the decoration with polymer varnish.

Ready! Wear it with pleasure.
