A beautiful pendant made of polymer clay will be an excellent decoration or souvenir for memory.

We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Photo №1Polymer clay provides the opportunitywork in various techniques, which are united by one term “Plastic”. In this master class we will introduce you to one of these techniques, which is called “kaleidoscope”. Sculpt in it – pure pleasure! This technique allows you to create original, beautiful things with your own hands. Try to create a beautiful product with a bright symmetrical pattern. An example of such a product is a pendant. This is what we will do in this master class. Materials for work:

  • baked polymer clay: green, white, light green, yellow, bronze.

Required tools:

  • A sharp knife (clerical or feather knife);
  • Blade from the clerical knife;
  • toothpick;
  • smooth cylindrical glass beaker;
  • foil.

So, let's start working on the pendant.a piece of yellow clay. Form a rectangle – Roll out with a glass and flatten with your fingers. Carefully and evenly stretch the workpiece in length, gradually moving from one end to the other.We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Photo # 2We form exactly the same rectangles from light green, white, bronze and green plastic. Trim the uneven edges with a blade.We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Picture №3Stack the rectangles on top of each otherthe following order: bronze, light green, white, yellow, green. Roll out the workpiece a little so that the layers stick tightly to each other. There is no need to flatten it too much.We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Photo №4Trim the uneven edges and divide lengthwise into 2 equal parts. We stack these parts on top of each other.We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Photo №5Roll out a little, trim off the uneven edges, placing the blade at an angle of 45 degrees. Cut into two parts lengthwise.We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Photo №6Roll into a thin “sausage” made of whitepolymer clay. We lay it on the yellow canvas along the smooth edge. We wrap the white “sausage” layer of yellow plastic. The extra part of the yellow fabric – cut it off.We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Photo №7Carefully roll the resulting “sausage” to smooth out the seam on the yellow layer. Then we wrap the resulting workpiece with light green, green and bronze plastic.We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Photo №8Roll out the “sausage” so thatit became longer and thinner. We cut off a part from it equal in length to the previously made striped triangular blank. Flatten it slightly with a glass. Roll out the remaining part even thinner.We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Photo Number 9From the original rectangles we cut moreseveral plates of equal size. We stack them on top of each other: yellow, white, bronze, green. Roll out lightly, trim off uneven edges, place green side up and roll tightly into a roll.We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Picture №10Roll out the resulting roll and stretch it in length to make it thinner.We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Photo Number 11We put together pieces of equal length allprepared parts. We start with a triangular striped blank. We press a flattened bronze “sausage” against it on the side. Next, place the yellow roll at the base. Trim off the excess length.We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Photo number 12Now roll up a thin “sausage” made of green plastic and placed in the hollow between the roll and the bronze “sausage”.We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Photo №13We place two more bronze “sausages” on top. and a second triangular blank. In cross section we should get a triangle.We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Photo Number 14We cut the workpiece crosswise into two equal parts. We stack them with each other in a mirror manner. The result was a blank with a square cross-section.We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Photo number 15We evenly compress the workpiece on all four sides and stretch it out in length. At the same time, it should not lose its shape and have the same thickness along its entire length.We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Photo number 16Cut the workpiece into two equal parts,We put them next to each other, mirror-image. Divide it into two parts again and fold it again. On the square end of the workpiece we see a symmetrical pattern. All that remains is to evenly squeeze and stretch the workpiece so that the pattern becomes smaller.We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Photo number 17After pinching, lightly roll out the workpiece on all sides to give it the ideal shape.We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Photo Number 18We take the remaining scraps, roll them into a ball, flatten them and roll them out into a thin and even sheet.We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Photo Number 19We cut the workpiece into pieces about 1 mm thick. Carefully place the sections on the canvas end to end, pressing and aligning their shape with a toothpick.We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Photo number 20Press lightly with your fingers and roll out until you obtain a flat and smooth surface and the disappearance of irregularities and hollows at the joints.We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Photo Number 21Roll a ball from the remaining plastic and give it a cabochon shape. Cover it with a cloth with a pattern, gently press it along the edges with the side of a toothpick.We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Photo Number 22Using a sharp knife, trim off the excess fabric. Using a blade, cut out a strip with a pattern from the remaining canvas.We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Photo # 23Fold it in half to make a loop. Roll out lightly with a toothpick at the base of the loop. We cut off the excess part of the strip at an angle.We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Photo # 24Place the base of the loop under the cabochon and press it to the bottom surface. Roll out a long narrow sheet from a piece of light green plastic and cut out an even strip from it. Cut the end at an angle.We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Photo №25We wrap the cabochon starting from the place where the loop is attached. We cut off the excess length at an angle and combine the ends, closing the frame. Smooth the joint with the side of a toothpick.We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Photo №26Roll it out thin and even.” sausage"from the same light green plastic. We decorate the pendant with it, laying it in a wave with a curl at the end. Place the product on foil and bake in the oven for 30 minutes at 130 degrees (the temperature and duration of baking can be checked on the packaging).We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Photo №27After baking, remove the product from the oven andlet it cool. Only after cooling will it become completely strong and solid. To complete the pendant, thread a cord or chain through the top loop.We make a pendant made of polymer clay. Photo №28Tips To prevent plastic from sticking to the work surfacesurface, place foil under it when rolling. To ensure that the workpiece does not crumple under the knife, and the cuts are of the correct shape, before cutting, we put the workpiece in the refrigerator for a while, so it will become harder.
