Liquid Sculpey® Metallic Navy, Rose Gold and Pearl Earrings

Getting Started:

Please make sure your work area is covered and you are not working on an unprotected surface. We recommend working on the Sculpey® Oven Safe Work Mat, wax paper, metal baking sheet, or disposable foil. Uncured Liquid Polymer Clay may damage unprotected furniture or finished surfaces. Be sure to cover your crafting area appropriately. - Stir Liquid Sculpey® completely. Thin with Sculpey® Liquid Clay Softener as needed - Wash hands after use (we have found that baby wipes work best)

Baking:

•It is important to use oven thermometer when you bake the liquids so that you can ensure your oven is at the correct temperature.•Do not microwave the liquids. They must be baked in a Preheated oven at 275 ºF (130 ºC) for liquid colors and 300 ºF (149 ºC) for Clear – Do not exceed baking temperatures.•If your piece is less than 1/4” bake for 15 minutes. For thicker pieces that are 1/4” or above bake for 30 minutes. •If your liquid project has become yellowed or discolored in the oven, when you remake it, tent it by placing either – folding an index card in half and placing your project under it or by using aluminum foil over your project.

Pour Navy Metallic into the larger teardrop mold, Rose Gold into the small teardrop mold and Pearl into the leaf shape. Bake for 30 minutes at 300f. Repeat for a second set.

Pierce 3 holes along the bottom of the large teardrops. (I used the piercing tool from the Sculpey Bead Making Kit.)

Add 3 eye screws evenly spaced along the bottom of the large teardrop. Add bezel to the front of the navy teardrop. I placed mine over the hole in the teardrop, then I secured it with a small amount of Superglue. Allow to dry.

Assemble as shown. Brava!
