Please make sure your work area is covered and you are not working on an unprotected surface. We recommend working on the Sculpey® Oven Safe Work Mat, wax paper, metal baking sheet, or disposable foil. Uncured Liquid Polymer Clay may damage unprotected furniture or finished surfaces. Be sure to cover your crafting area appropriately. - Stir Liquid Sculpey® completely. Thin with Sculpey® Liquid Clay Softener as needed - Wash hands after use (we have found that baby wipes work best)
Baking:
•It is important to use oven thermometer when you bake the liquids so that you can ensure your oven is at the correct temperature.•Do not microwave the liquids. They must be baked in a Preheated oven at 275 ºF (130 ºC) for liquid colors and 300 ºF (149 ºC) for Clear – Do not exceed baking temperatures.•If your piece is less than 1/4” bake for 15 minutes. For thicker pieces that are 1/4” or above bake for 30 minutes. •If your liquid project has become yellowed or discolored in the oven, when you remake it, tent it by placing either – folding an index card in half and placing your project under it or by using aluminum foil over your project.
Fill the two smaller teardrop shapes (just a hair less than full) with Gold Liquid Sculpey. Stir the Liquid Sculpey Confetti Clear until it is well mixed. Fill the hoop shape in the Sculpey Jewelry Mold with Confetti Clear.
Bake for 30 minutes at 300 °F. Cool. Remove the hoop shape only. Leave the teardrops in the mold. Place a small dot of Superglue in the center of the gold teardrops toward the end opposite the hole. Place the post findings on the glue and allow to dry. Add a thin layer of gold liquid clay over teardrop shapes to the top of the mold. Fill the hoop shape with Confetti Clear. Bake at 300 °F for 30 minutes. Cool.
