Sculpey Creations!

(Cat-Boy)

 The other night, I attended an art night with some fellow crafters, and someone was making this amazing zombie penguin out of molding clay. After staring at her work in progress, I ask if I could play around with some of her crafting clay - Thank Goodness she said yes. It opened a whole new world for me. I found a kit of 14 different colors for less than $10 at Wal-Mart and I've been creating ever since. 


(Krum) 

My first creation was the Zombie Bride and Groom, which I made at the Art Night with the help of the people there. I baked them the next day at 275 degrees for about an hour (15 minutes per every 1/4 inch). Next I made Krum, from one of my favorite television shows as a kid, 'Ahh! Real Monsters!'. The armpit hairs were the hardest to do on him, and even after baking they weren't as stiff as I wanted them (ew, right?).
 My newest creation has to be my favorite. I'm a cat-oholic, and I wanted to do something kitty like. Baked him with Krum for about an hour, but unfortunately his ear fell off, so I'm going to have to run to Hobby Lobby and get some glue.

I'm not going to add any directions for this, just because with molding clay it's more fun just to make your own designs. 

I hope that you go out and grab some Sculpeys, and create, create, create! Much love, crafters!
