Project Instructions

Step 1

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 15 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.

Step 2

Use the Clay Roller to flatten 1/4 bar Coral to a 1/8” thick sheet. Make sure you can cut out two flower shapes from the clay.

Step 3

Cut two flower shapes and smooth the edges with your fingertips.

Step 4

Flip one flower over, if you prefer, so that you have mirror image shapes.

Add a small ball of Peach to the center of each flower.

Step 5

Poke holes at the top using the Blunt Point Tool for jump ring
assembly later.

Bake flowers following the baking instructions in Step 1 above.

Step 6

Here is the assembly for the earrings.

Step 7

Use flat nose pliers to open and close jump rings to attach flowers to ear wires.
