Gold DecoArt® Metallic Lustre™

Gold satin cording 

Instructions:

Roll white clay to about 1/4” thick. 

Select desired image from silkscreen and place silkscreen orange side down onto rolled clay sheet. 

Use scraper or squeegee to apply gold metallic paint to silkscreen. Lift silkscreen to reveal image, wash silkscreen immediately for later use. 

Let silkscreened image dry. Use round cutter approximately same size as image and cut out image. 

Roll another sheet of white clay about 1/4” thick. Place Peacock Feathers texture sheet over the sheet and roll with roller to texture the sheet with the feathers. Note:  You can use Makin’s® texture sheets on both sides, to create raised or inset images. I chose to make my feathers raised up. 

Apply gold Metallic Lustre to highlight details of feathers. 

Use larger round cutter to cut disc from textured clay sheet. 

Use Ultimate Clay Extruder® to extrude thin strands of white clay. Make small coils of clay.  Use tacky glue to add them around the outer edge of the peacock disc. 

Paint the coils with gold paint. Let dry.

 

 

Place peacock disc off center onto feather disc. Fresh clay will stick to fresh clay, but add a bit of tacky glue if you desire to ensure good adhesion. 

Make a small hole at the top center of the textured disc for the cording. 

Let dry 24 hours.
