Hello...I’m back! And this time I ain’t ‘Stupid’ anymore. Someone told me that the little fellas whose shooting people around are called Cupid not ‘Stupid’. Well I don’t really care though…because it still rhymes. Haha…So, are you folks ready to get started with the new project as I promised to you guys in my last post? So, let’s don’t waste more time…
Okay, for this project, you will need white glue (I can’t find where I put the bottle so I used UHU stick instead of white glue), terracotta art-clay, gold dust, metal ring, paint and lacquer (alternative: clear acrylic spray or clear nail polish as what I used).
- Shape the clay into your desire shape (heart shape is a good one because we are doing this for Valentine’s day)
- After you’re finished shaping the clay, make a tiny hole through the clay.
- Then place the clay onto an oiled cookie sheet, and dry them in a 200 degree oven (please make sure the clay is harden enough)
- Once the clay is dry and hardened, paint with any desired colour and allows the paint to dry. Don’t have to be thorough because we will dab the clay with gold dust.
- Before applying the gold dust, cover the clay with white glue just to make sure that the gold dust perfectly glued to the clay.
- Let the glue dry. I then coated the entire surface with clear nail polish.
- You can then put a metal ring through the hole that we’ve created earlier.
- If you wish, you can thread a ribbon or cord through the metal ring.
- Tadaaa…the finished product.
You can give this to your love one as a pendant or as a cell phone charm. What a lovely gift isn’t it? Well then, have a great day ahead. We, all the Frosted Cigar’s authors wishing you have a very enjoyable and unforgettable Valentine’s Day! We love you! Oh, by the way I am proudly pronounced I am Cupid!
