All Things Metal Clay » Blog Archive » Ornament Thursday If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting! I’ve joined Katie Hacker’s Oranment Thursday, which I read about on Art Bead Scene Blog and the Savvy Crafter blog. For my first ornament I’ve made two polymer clay ornaments. Here’s a process shot: I added the gold with pigment ink, and then baked the ornaments again for 5 minutes.
Shrinky Dink Meets Fairyopolis I have a new bracelet! It is made using good old fashioned Shrinky Dink. Shrinky Dink has been around for a very long time. The project began with me picking six images from the Fairyopolis triple disk CD. Then I cut my images out. I also measured the location to punch holes on each piece. You need to follow the manufacturer's instructions for baking. Eventually they are shrunk. All I had left to do was spend a little time joining all my fairies with jump rings. The bracelet is so unique and fun. I'll be doing more with shrink plastic this weekend!

Experiment - Resin Casting Part 1 - Making the Mold I've been wanting to use my polymer clay jewelry as molds for casting resin jewelry so I went through my jewelry-making library and found I had a copy of Sherri Haab's book, The Art of Resin Jewelry . Sherri's book inspired me to go out and get the supplies needed to make resin bracelets including the silicone rubber compound and the resin. There are lots of types of mold makers and resins so since I'm inexperienced I'm starting with what is readily available in my local area. I usually shop Michaels, Hobby Lobby and Meiningers in the Denver area. Based on Sherri's recommendation for mold making material, I purchased Smooth-On Oomoo 30 Silicone at Meiningers. Step 1 Gather your supplies and materials OOMOO 30 Silicone, Rubber Gloves, Craft stir sticks. disposable plastic cups (I'm using the 3oz plastic bathroom cups - not wax!) Step 2 Prepare your original Select the piece to be molded and a container that is larger on the sides and top, but not too large so you don't waste material.
