Sculpey Premo™ Marbled Stone Bracelet

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 clay may damage unprotected furniture or finished surfaces. Be sure to cover your crafting area appropriately.

Start with clean hands, unwrap and knead clay until soft and smooth, or condition by running clay though a Pasta Machine. We recommend using a designated machine for clay purposes only. When working with multiple colors, clean hands with soap and water or baby wipes (we have found that baby wipes work best) before switching colors. Shape clay, pressing pieces firmly together. Wash hands after use.

Baking (also called Curing):

Begin by preheating oven to 275 °F (130 °C). After you are done creating; for best results bake/cure clay on an oven-proof surface such metal, aluminum foil, an index card or the Sculpey® Clay Mat at 275°F (130 °C) for 30 minutes per 1/4" (6 mm) thickness according to package directions. Oven safe glass or ceramic surfaces are also acceptable for baking/curing; however please note that the baking/curing times may take longer as the glass or ceramic surfaces take longer to heat up. For best baking results, use an oven thermometer. DO NOT USE MICROWAVE OVEN. DO NOT EXCEED THE ABOVE TEMPERATURE OR RECOMMENDED BAKING TIME.

Mix 1.5 parts Raw Sienna and 1 part White (I used the scored fractions on Sculpey blocks). Condition well and place in the clay extruder with the largest round disc attached. Form into a “C” shape large enough to fit around your wrist.

Mix White clay with small amounts of Ecru and Light Pink to create a marbled effect.

Sculpt the marbled clay from Step 3 into a rectangular shape and slice the edges and corners of the rectangle to create and stone/gem shape leaving the bottom side completely flat.

Squeeze a small amount of Translucent Liquid Sculpey across the middle center of the bracelet and apply pressure making sure the stone bends into the bracelet curve.

Bake according to Step 1.

Place one end of the craft wire on the underside of the stone and wrap fully around the stone and bracelet. Continue to wrap till you get your desired look.

Snip the excess wire with a wire cutter.
Hide the end piece into the rest of the wire to avoid visible wire cuts.

Use the craft drill to make a small hole of each end piece of the bracelet for the connection loops, screw in the eye screws.

Use your flat nose pliers to attach a jump ring to each side and place the loop, close the jump ring.

Repeat these steps with the other connector.
