Supplies
These DIY polymer clay earrings don’t require a whole lot of materials. You just need the following…
Polymer Clay (I used Fimo, you could also use Sculpey)
Earring backs
Sharp craft knife
E6000 glue
The process
Step 1
Take a piece of polymer clay and mould it in your hands until it’s soft and workable. My first attempt at these guys I broke a piece off the block and started cutting straight into it without softening it up first. I thought, if I just want straight cuts I wouldn’t need to work it. I was wrong. The clay simply crumbled and snapped off in places I wanted smooth sides. Trust me. Working the clay and warming it up is still super important for the success of this project.
Step 2
Using the earring back as a size guide cut a section of polymer clay to work with.
Step 3
Cut off sections of the clay working from the top down on an angle. Then
cut pieces straight down and working on an inward angle
Step 4
Once you’re happy with your shapes bake your pieces in the oven, following the instructions on the pack.
Step 5
Once the geo pieces are our of the oven and they’ve cooled down you can glue the earring posts to the back.
Finished! Simple as that. 🙂
I love these simple little geo pieces. I think they would make awesome pins for my cork board.
Think that will be my next project. 🙂
