Learn the "Applique Technique" in Polymer Clay by Making 5 Floral Designs.
What you'll learn ..
- You’ll be able to make necklaces and pendants with detailed and realistic flowers; what is called the “applique technique” in polymer clay.
- For beginners, you’ll gain the basic knowledge about polymer clay first. That includes but not limited to; general properties about polymer clay, conditioning the clay, baking it, storage and safety issues.
- By applying this course’s tutorials, you’ll gain the skill of modeling and shaping using polymer clay so you’ll be able to make things other than the floral designs shown in the course.
In this course,
You'll learn how to make floral jewelry using what is called the "Applique Technique" in polymer clay. You’ll learn how to make necklaces with realistic and stunning flowers and unique designs. You’ll also learn when and how to apply acrylic paints and soft pastel powder to polymer clay, and how to protect the delicate parts of your design against breakage.
By the end of the course, you’ll be able to apply what you’ve learned to make your own designs that could be either floral or not, as you would’ve gained the skill of modeling and shaping using polymer clay. So many other things will be easy for you.
And don’t worry if you’ve never touched polymer clay before because this course will give you fundamental knowledge about polymer clay, how to condition it, how to bake it, and much more about its properties. Moreover, I’ve taken into consideration that you wouldn’t have enough tools as a beginner, so I made some tutorials with the use of objects that would be accessible such as an empty pen.
And of course, if you’ve worked with polymer clay before and you’d like to learn about the "Applique Technique" and to get some useful working tips and precautions, then this course is absolutely for you.
The course is structured to give you:
Basic knowledge about polymer clay.
- Materials and tools.

Step-by-step tutorials for five designs:
