Valentine's Day is fast approaching and this time of year I love finding unique ways to create all things hearts! A fun alternative to making paper valentines is actually using oven bake clay.
I started by sculpting little hearts out of polymer clay.
I used tooth picks to create arrows for my hearts so I pushed the tooth pick through each heart.
Next, I baked the clay hearts (according to the directions on the package).
Once the hearts cooled, I use permanent pens to doodle all over them!
And last, I transformed those tooth picks into arrows by adding some paper details.
There you have it! Cute hearts that make a great little Valentine's Day gift!
What a great idea they look fantastic x

ReplyDeleteI find air dry and paper clays have texture, making it harder to doodle. Maybe gesso first?
