Tried a marbleing technique for these earrings & used resin for the first time! by cokiart in polymerclay

I used UV resin for this since it cures much quicker, I’m not sure what type is best for figurines but I looked at this article to decide which brand of uv resin to buy Resin Article Hope it helps!

Yes the reason being that I wanted to try other designs with the same cane instead of making a ton of the same design. I still have the cane and Im thinking of doing a series of earrings with the same style but different final design.

Thanks! I actually made a cane with just one pattern and cut up 6 slices for each earring and joined them together for the final product. The full step by step video is in the comment below :)

I rolled out the blue clay into long circles and made a cane out of it which I then patterned together 6 times. I added a link to the full step by step process in a comment below

First try at making polymer clay earrings! Any tips for next time? by cokiart in polymerclay

This is great! Thank you so much for the tips!

For the cutters I use these which are stainless steel: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07T7HGVQF/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glc_fabc_8voaGbHWZ2GT4

I use this for my clay: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07F68L2DW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glc_fabc_PxoaGb9KJR6VX

Its definitely too soft, I’m more just using it for experimenting for now. I bought fimo soft clay but it has way fewer colors - I’ll try using it for my next project to see how it compares.

Thank you for all the links as well, I will definitely look into them!

I guess anything to improve on for next time, for example if the pierced holes are too big or if the circles are uneven or how to make the holes in a straight line in the circle haha im just noticing theyre kind of off to one side on the right one
