Polymer Clay Unicorn















1. You will need a large oval for the body and a small one for the head.















 2. Pull the clay to form the legs.















 3. Move the legs to a sitting position (you can make it stand too).















4. Add the head, ears, and horn. You wont need that much clay for the ears and horn.















5. For its mane and tail, you need to roll out thin strands of clay and stick it on.





 6. For the wings, you will need thicker strands of clay and roll them up.





 
7. Shape the rolls into a pointyish triangular shape.
















8. Stick on the wings and you're done!

Basic Clay Cupcakes (Charms)

This technique is super simple and requires absolutely no materials except for.....clay! It doesn't always turn out perfect, but will always look cute as a charm. :)



 The Things You Will Need: 

Assorted Colors of Oven Bake Clay 
(I recommend Sculpey or Craftsmart)




And Thats all :)












 












How to do it (Pink):


                   
                      First, mix some red and white clay together. We aiming for a reddish-pink.
                                                           Not a legit pink-pink.
                           

                       After reaching that color, mix some red, brown, and white together. This                                                                      will be the cupcake liner


       
                          Form a sort of a cylinder with the brown but make the bottom of the                                        cylinder a bit smaller than the top. Also, roll out the pink, until its very thin.
                                          This will be the frosting of the cupcake.
                               

                                         
                         Roll the thin string of pink around the cupcake liner as shown above.



                      After completing it, attach an eye pin and bake it for 15 minutes in a 275                                   degrees F set oven. Finally, glaze over the cupcake and wait for it to dry for about                                                                25 minutes. Enjoy!







                           

   

 How to do it (Red):





So. I made this brown, I realized that it was too light, so I added a little more brown. :)
(Brown + Red+ White)





:)




No, its not the Nike symbol. I made the same cylinder and the same thin strand as the pink cupcake. I think I might of forgotten to the make the end smaller. ;)




So, just wrap it around. Yep, just like that. :)




Add a eyepin and repeat the last steps to the pink cupcake method.









Enjoy!
