Polymer Clay Pumpkin
Hi! I am going to show you how to make a pumpkin out of polymer clay.
Tools & Colors
You will need:
Colors
- Orange Clay
- a small amount of pale green ( I mixed green with a bit of white.)
Tools
- Knife ( I like to use X-ACTO)
- Ball stylus
Pumpkin
Roll out a ball of clay. Then poke a small hole in the top with the ball tool.
The Lines
Take the ball tool and push down along the side of the pumpkin to make the lines.
Smoothing the Sides
Now smooth the down the edges of the pumpkin with your fingers and the ball tool to make them more rounded.
The Stem
Roll out a small piece of pale green clay into a cone-like shape and place on top of the pumpkin.
Finishing Up
Take the ball tool and press the bottom stem into the grooves of the pumpkin. Then twist the stem a tiny bit to give it more realistic look.
Baking
Bake in the oven at 275 °F for 15 minutes.
Done!
There You have it! A polymer clay pumpkin. Perfect as a fall decoration.
