Sculpey Bake Shop Light™ Slap Happy Cat Bracelet

Getting Started:

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 clay may damage unprotected furniture or finished surfaces. Be sure to cover your crafting area appropriately.

Start with clean hands, unwrap and knead clay until soft and smooth, or condition by running clay though a Pasta Machine. We recommend using a designated machine for clay purposes only. When working with multiple colors, clean hands with soap and water or baby wipes (we have found that baby wipes work best) before switching colors. Shape clay, pressing pieces firmly together. Wash hands after use.

Baking:

Begin by preheating oven to 275 °F (130 °C). After you are done creating; for best results bake clay on an oven-proof surface such metal, aluminum foil, an index card or the Sculpey® Clay Mat at 275°F (130 °C) for 15 minutes per 1/4" (6 mm) thickness according to package directions. Oven safe glass or ceramic surfaces are also acceptable for baking; however please note that the baking times may take longer as the glass or ceramic surfaces take longer to heat up. For best baking results, use an oven thermometer. DO NOT USE MICROWAVE OVEN. DO NOT EXCEED THE ABOVE TEMPERATURE OR RECOMMENDED BAKING TIME.

From 1/2 bar of Hot Pink Pluffy, make a large oval. Add on two little triangles shapes for ears.

Make a very thin White triangle and pinch the points. Shape the triangle with your fingers so that it has two short sides and a long side. Position the triangle on the bottom of the face as shown. Add little White triangles to the insides of the ears

Add little Purple triangles between the ears for tufts of hair. Make a little Orange triangle for a nose. Poke two eye holes in and add little balls of Aqua to them. Use the pointed tool to poke in a mouth and add a Pink tongue. Bake the cat face following the baking instructions for on the package.

When the cat is completely cool, hot glue an elastic hair tie to the back. Make sure to imbed the hair tie fully in the glue and place some glue over the hair tie as well.

When the glue is completely dry attach the cat face to the slap bracelet by twisting the hair tie around one end. Then carefully slide the hair tie down to the middle of the bracelet.

With the cat near the center of the slap bracelet, it’s ready to be worn
