Linty Steampunk Owl Pendant by Patricia Krauchune



LINTY STEAMPUNK OWL PENDANT
Designed by Patricia Krauchune


I was inspired by two techniques I found on the Makin's Clay® Tutorials & Techniques Pinterest board:  adding dryer lint to polymer clay and the folded owl.  The lint technique works great with Makin's Clay®.

Supply List:

Makin's Clay® - Black, White 
Mica Powders Magic Glos® 
Various watch parts
DecoArt® Americana™ Triple Thick Gloss Glaze
Krazy® Glue
Small piece of copper wire


Recommended Makin’s® Tools:

Makin's Professional® Ultimate Clay Machine™
Makin's Professional® Tools: (small sphere point, dartboard point, shading point) 
Makin's® Cutting Mat
Makin's® Texture Sheet Set D (scales) 


Instructions:


1. Mix equal parts of black and white Makin's Clay®.

2. Run clay through Makin's Professional® Ultimate Clay Machine® until you get a blended grey color. Next I added some dryer lint and continued to run through the clay machine until thoroughly incorporated into the clay.


3. Roll out some clay and using a circle cutter, cut out a circle. Burnish the scales texture sheet over half of the circle. 







4. Fold the sides in, then the top to look like the picture.

5. Use the Makin's Professional® tool with the dartboard point to form eyes, then use the small sphere point to recess the center. I added small watch parts for the eyes. I used the shading point to add a beak.

6. Next I added a watch stem and a small gear. Watch hands form the beak and eyebrows. A small piece of copper wire makes the bale, glued in with Krazy® Glue. This is the time you make the owl your own...I colored the owl with mica powders and finished it with the Americana Triple Thick Gloss Glaze™



7. So give a hoot and try Makin® an owl for yourself!
