Kawaii Mother's Day Flower

Today we are going to create a kawaii Mother's Day Flower.  Let's get started.

Supplies:
Aleena's Tacky Glue
White Hearty Clay
Acrylic paint (color of your choice)

Step One:
Get a piece of white hearty clay and add a drop of acrylic paint.

Knead your clay and mix the paint in until you get one solid color.

 

Split into 5 balls and roll into a log.

Step Two:
Take your 5 logs and form it into a tear drop shape. Pinch the ends to form a petal.

Take your tacky glue and add a small drop onto your petals. Start forming your flower.

Step Three:
Take a small piece of white clay and form a log.

Start rolling one end to form a spiral.  Cut off excess clay if necessary.

Glue the white spiral onto the middle of the flower.

Your flower is complete! Let it air dry for about 24 hours for it to harden.

Have a Craftastic Day!

It's a Clay Thing!

I've always wanted to work with clay but have always had a vision of whatever I made falling apart. Just remembering what all those clay figures that were made during those elementary school years gives me the shivers! And, that pottery class in high school went the same way. Still, after being inspired with what Penny (from our Mapunapuna store) makes; I've been thinking of giving clay another try. These Martha Stewart Silcone Molds (the stores just got these in) may be the way to go before I try free-styling again. The directions say to just press the clay into the molds, release, air dry & embellish! Sounds simple enough?! I think I'll try it with our air dry Hearty Clay and either the Sculpey or Fimo Clay too! I'll let you know how it turns out!
This week's crafting features a Sizzix Swing Card tomorrow, September 20 & on Saturday, September 22 our Adventures will feature the Tree of Life Pendant in the morning & you can make a Burlap Ribbon Rose in the afternoon! The Burlap Rose is perfect for your Fall wreaths & the Tree of Life Pendant would be a nice gift for a friend!

There's always somethng creative going on at Pearl City Ben Franklin!
