How To Make Easy Faux Ceramic Polymer Clay Pendants

[@barbarajeaniesjewels]

I'm thinking this would be great for coasters too! Could do them with seashells or celestial or nature themes too.

[@Midgy21747]

I really liked this - nice and simple and pretty. Can you tell me how you glazed them please? Thank yo for sharing.

[@annetteweadock4949]

Fun and easy to follow

[@UnrulyHousewife]

Thank you! xx

[@AgniKost]

Amazing work

[@marlakellmanart]

I simply looove your accent! Thank you for sharing this awesome tutorial!

[@UnrulyHousewife]

You are most welcome! Thank you for watching. xx

[@Wulfgeist]

So when you are done you sand the edges a bit if needed, what about the top? Do you have to sand the top at all before you apply glaze?

[@pamelaoverstreet28]

Would you please share where you got the stamp you used for this pendant. Thank you love this tutorial. cordially Pam

[@ladykayla7417]

I bet they'd work well as Xmas ornaments (with appropriate motifs, of course) for a tree or just hanging from shelves or mantelpiece over the holidays.

[@UnrulyHousewife]

They really would. xx

[@anitadavidson1249]

Missed my clay day today due to brain issues (opening for joke there...), and have only just stumbled across this wonderful tutorial and decided to give it a go tomorrow (if brain, hands, legs etc fire up!). Ta very much for taking so much of the hard work and irritating errors out of getting these techniques right. You're as you know my hero!! Night night Val xx

[@NancyHernandez-xo8bg]

I really like the look of those. I will try it out very soon..like tomorrow. Thanks for the lesson.

[@UnrulyHousewife]

Yay!

[@mariannegotze1450]

Very nice. Thanks for sharing. ❤

[@lisasmith1565]

Very lovely

[@UnrulyHousewife]

Thank you. xx

[@StarDestroY3r]

Fantastic!! Could you tell me where you got these stamps?!! I LOVE the elephant!

[@lyndathomason8265]

These are a great idea, i have some new stamps from the works so i can try it with them

[@UnrulyHousewife]

Oohh great! xx

[@KathleenRenninger]

Love these! Very good video! Thanks so much for sharing your technique!

[@PropheticEnvy]

oooooo this is beautiful and a nice finish! also nice to see someone use more Fimo deco gel

[@UnrulyHousewife]

I love that stuff. xx

[@patriciawiley99]

Really pretty! I love the colors and patterns! I wish there was a way to make the liquid clay a little thinner as it seems it might settle better. Thank you for the tutorial, it was enjoyable!

[@debrashorten5160]

Very nice thank you ☺

[@UnrulyHousewife]

[@jeanettethomas934]

What do you use to glaze it over after it is baked?

[@UnrulyHousewife]

I use Americana DuraClear gloss varnish. If you check out a website called "The Blue Bottle Tree" there is a whole section on varnishes for polymer clay. xx

[@huawryyu5457]

Thankyou. It is beautiful., 😊❤️

[@grannyjclay-joannieholdhus925]

Hi Val - if your red cutter is plastic, you can take sandpaper and sand the bottom of it! It will sharpen it up so it will cut clay crisper! Not my idea...someone else's but thought I'd share! God bless❤

[@UnrulyHousewife]

Joannie Holdhusen Thank you! xx

[@jillrenshaw6509]

Really lovely! I suppose you could varnish if you wanted a shine?

[@UnrulyHousewife]

It's a long time ago but I am pretty sure they ARE varnished.

[@artralia]

Is there any alternative of liquid clay?

[@severinamarsh]

Love this idea. Thank you so much!

[@UnrulyHousewife]

[@pattiunderwood7026]

Super look. Thank you.

[@UnrulyHousewife]

It's one of my favourite things. xx

[@UeFdblU88c]

how long do you put piece back in oven for 2nd time? once the tls and pastel are on it?

[@UnrulyHousewife]

Brie Tier You need to do a whole bake, according to the clay manufacturer's instructions. So for me, using Fimo, that's 30 mins.

[@UeFdblU88c]

Unruly Housewife so you do a 15 min bake, then put pastel on then 30 mins? or 15 min pastel then 15 min?

[@UnrulyHousewife]

Brie Tier 15 to harden it up so you can work on it... but then 30, because it needs a whole bake, in one go, to make it strong. I actually emailed the makers of Fimo to get that advice. x

[@UeFdblU88c]

Unruly Housewife​ , Thank you so much, I can't wait to try this technique. Your pieces are beautiful!

[@marianedwards5077]

Thanks for sharing, great idea

[@derke4]

I love these! What is used for glaze?

[@UnrulyHousewife]

Thank you! I'm in the UK, so I used Americana DuraClear Gloss Varnish, which is very good. If you are in the USA you'll have more choices - I'd recommend looking on a website called The Blue Bottle Tree, for lots of brilliant technical advice and a whole section on varnishes/glazes.

[@derke4]

Unruly Housewife thank you! :) 💚 Can't wait to try this.

[@gimmeachance7059]

It is beautiful! Thank you for your tutorial.

[@AS_songbird]

Thank you! This is beautiful!

[@UnrulyHousewife]

[@christinaaugustine27]

Simple yet awesome ... ❤️it

[@UnrulyHousewife]

[@jude1515]

That's really pretty!

[@ameemoha5687]

Thanx for sharing you're amazing can we use porcline dough instead of ploymer clay cause I don't have it .. if it yes we do the same steps after dough dry in air thanx alot

[@UnrulyHousewife]

The problem with that would be the liquid clay needs to be baked... so if the porcelain clay is OK in the oven go for it but I think it might not be. xx

[@ameemoha5687]

Unruly Housewife thanx alot

[@janicepritchard9809]

Great tutorial! Love love love your creations! Can you show us how you strung it, which cord you used? Thanks so much xx

[@debbiecarney1724]

love these, could you tell me what stamps you used please

[@UnrulyHousewife]

Thanks! Viva Decor "India". xx

[@debbiecarney1724]

Thank you :) xx

[@rhondasquires7770]

Love love love it!💕made it looks awesome! Thank you!

[@grannyjclay-joannieholdhus925]

So awesome! You are so very cheerful and that is awesome too! Bless you!

[@UnrulyHousewife]

Bless you too Joannie, what a sweet comment! xx

[@pilotsmother]

luv them!

[@tjaysilver]

I love this technique, did you you the American Duraclear range to varnish this?

[@UnrulyHousewife]

Yes I did, I love it! Thanks Tracey. xx

[@myszkabrudnicka2244]

Love this! Thank you very much!

[@BornAgainFarmGirl]

This is quite lovely !

[@puckizzy]

Love Love Love! Very inspired to do this today! Where did you get your medallion impression thingy?!

[@UnrulyHousewife]

Amazon... It's always Amazon. (As you now know already) xx

[@allisonchavez9113]

I full on enjoy your videos as your personality is shared so greatly with us, not seemingly hidden. Your great! That being said lol I like the technique so much but am confused...you mix the pastel into the liquid clay and cover the piece...yet much of it stays white which is very good, but how?? How is the color only going into some of it? I know this video is several years old so you nay not get my comments right away. I've been doing clay for 2 years and saw new videos from you, but not in several months. I hope that you are well and that your world is treating you fantastically!

[@UnrulyHousewife]

Once the liquid is settled in the indentation, I use a flat blade to sweep any excess off the raised pattern. Pretty sure that's in the video... Did you skip through? Naughty. 😂

[@allisonchavez9113]

@@UnrulyHousewife no, I didn't skip through, not even a sneeze!! 😁😁 well not that I recall.....lol But, that explains it! I'll watch again and be doubly inspired!! I've been on Amazon looking for mandella stamps but no luck yet. Will you be presenting g us with something new soon?? Excitedly waiting in California

[@islandgirl1949]

Hi, thanks for sharing! Where do you get your stamps please? I live in Greece so I would need to be able to order online if possible. Thanks again

[@UnrulyHousewife]

I buy almost everything from Amazon. xx

[@nimueladyofthelake]

pretty

[@sharrenasimmons3469]

They are lovely Val, going to have a go at making these tomorrow :) X

[@UnrulyHousewife]

Good luck! xx

[@kathyfox194]

Love it !

[@kelliehutzley5021]

love it sooo 😊

[@UnrulyHousewife]

And it isn't too difficult! :D xx

[@Telenaus]

[@UnrulyHousewife]

It might! I just tried to get the lid off my Mod Podge but I couldn't!

[@Telenaus]

lol cool i'll try it & let ya know (that happens to me all the time too! ) ;)

[@UnrulyHousewife]

Oh excellent, thanks! xx

[@merryclicker]

Tialisa, you can mix a very small amount of mineral oil or baby oil (DROP or two) with white or translucent clay until it's gooey. You don't need much, just smash the clay into the oil over and over and over. Try a small piece of clay the size of your littlest fingernail and mix it with the oil. You can then shave some soft pastels into the goop, or alcohol ink, or even acrylic paint. These are very small amounts. If it works well for you, you can make more. Store it in a small 'paint pot' or something similar. FYI: I just bought a tall bottle of Kato liquid clay on Amazon that was cheaper than the small bottle of the Sculpey, and way cheaper than the Fimo liquid.

[@Telenaus]

i tried that but doesnt make a very translucent paint & i still had to seal it,and the pastels in the modge pode was ok-ish lol does the kato bond well with the other clays?

[@Marisol9111-w3p]

Beautiful, can u use bake n bond, as well?

[@UnrulyHousewife]

I haven't tried but it sounds feasible! Do let me know if you try and the result is good please. xx

[@Marisol9111-w3p]

Unruly Housewife thank u for ur response I will ..:)

[@CathannSmith]

Thank you for this great video, I was wondering where you got the stamp for making this pendant?

[@UnrulyHousewife]

they are Viva Decor stamps from a collection called "India" but I'm not sure if they still sell them. I bought mine from Amazon. xx

[@Rubilynn22]

Love this I brought some stamps online such a beautiful effect X thanks

[@katieg1290]

Hi, what did you use to glaze it?

[@UnrulyHousewife]

I think it was Fimo, so probably Fimo gloss glaze.

[@kristinaviolette5081]

Hello, what a great technique! Thank you so much for sharing 🤗 I know this is an old video so I have no idea if you'll answer but... Can I mix alcohol inks with the liquid clay and get the same effect? I read all the the comments and couldn't find anyone else who asked this question. Thanks again.

[@UnrulyHousewife]

Hi and thanks! Yes it's possible to use alcohol inks but what people do is to let the alcohol evaporate off, before mixing the colour in, if that makes sense. You want the lovely tones but you don't want a load of alcohol in your liquid clay. xx

[@nancyh9125]

I can't find stamp patterns that are deep enough to imprint on clay

[@UnrulyHousewife]

Nancy H These are by "Viva Decor".

[@nancyh9125]

Thank you!

[@Designsbyizzi]

Great tutorial, i have a quick question. How do you clean the edges, just send it off? Thanks again.

[@UnrulyHousewife]

Yeah, some nice wet/dry sandpaper (wet). xx

[@Designsbyizzi]

thank you

[@jackieunderwood4893]

can you use oil pastel sticks?

[@UnrulyHousewife]

I don't think so - you want it to be translucent. x

[@jackieunderwood4893]

Poopy, that's what I was afraid of... Thanks J.

[@UnrulyHousewife]

Jackie Underwood You could try food colouring....

[@merryclicker]

Jackie, You can also try the (many) colors of magic markers. Just scribble the color where you want it, spritz or drip alcohol on them and they will spread, and fill, and do neat things. They are a permanent marker but alcohol based. Yes, the ones from the dollar store will do the same. There is a video on KZbin where (Mo Clay?) scribbles markers on gold leaf and spritzes it with alcohol. It should do the same on baked clay. Worth a test.

[@denisag3491]

personally i enjoyed it very much! tnx!!! :)🤗

[@UnrulyHousewife]

Cheers! xx

[@AriannaHandmade]

I like it...thank youuuuuuuuuu!

[@joyceparkes2678]

I can’t wait to try these. I love the pattern and wonder if you could advise on uk store to buy some. Also as I’m trying to avoid too much expenditure if I can use acrylics or alcohol inks without the liquid clay? Love your videos.. thanks so much for sharing your talent😘

[@UnrulyHousewife]

You do need the liquid clay really but a bottle goes a LONG way. I buy mine from Amazon, Craft Cellar, Clayaround, Fred Aldous... Somewhere like that. xx

[@javajunkies2002]

Absolutely love this and can't wait to try my own! Two questions: do you know if it possible to use this technique with the 'air dry' polymer clay? And, what type of glaze do you use? Thank you so much for all the wonderful information & taking time out of your day to help others!

[@jennay242010]

where do you get your stamp designs

[@UnrulyHousewife]

These are Viva Decor "India" or "India Paisley" - I got them from Amazon UK but they are "Unavailable" at the moment. Other people have had difficulty finding them but I imagine there are other pretty stamps to choose. xx

[@jennay242010]

Thanks

[@jennay242010]

Love your videos

[@UnrulyHousewife]

Thanks so much Jennifer. xx

Subscribed~This was so pretty! p.s. Your voice really made it enjoyable~

[@UnrulyHousewife]

Thank you!

[@merryclicker]

And my brain was softly whispering, "The King asked the Queen, and the Queen asked the Dairy Maid... may I please have some butter for the Royal slice of bread?" over, and over, and over...! I love this technique, and have done some that are gentle, and some more whimsical, and still the whispering continues.

[@UnrulyHousewife]

[@esmelmo]

Thanks for the video! I'm from Argentina, and I would like to know what the bottle contains, some kind of glue? sorry, I'm not really good at English.

[@UnrulyHousewife]

It is liquid Fimo but any liquid polymer clay will do. x

[@javajunkies2002]

Melany Molina Your English is better than most Americans here in the South! 😉🙃

[@GrammyVulture]

I LOVE THIS!!! I am always amazed at what I see you have done. smiles💥

[@UnrulyHousewife]

Thank you! xx

[@susanhiggins8973]

I would think that if you used a heat gun after baking, the liquid clay would turn shiny.

[@UnrulyHousewife]

Ooohhh... That's worth an experiment!

[@BlackCat_2]

Those came out fantastic! Thank you for sharing. :D - Heidi

[@UnrulyHousewife]

Thanks! xx

[@DianaMoon11428]

LOL. I press into the acrylic plate with my foot. That does the job! PS but don't crack the tile. Oops.
