Make Flower Decorations for Your Polymer Clay Bowl

Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Melina and welcome to Expert Village. Today we are going to make a polymer clay bowl. In this next step we are going to create the outer petals of our flower for the polymer clay base. So we are going to take a color and it can be any color you want but you need to have enough to make similar logs about the same size and you need to make about five. One, two, three, four, five. Ok. Okay we're going to roll each one of these into individual logs and we're going to attach them to our center log. You can see how it almost looks like a flower. It will look more like a flower when it's all complete and rolled. So we are going to take a color that is very contrasting from this purple. You don't want use something that's almost like the purple because you really want at petals to stick out and show. So I'm going to use this bright yellow right here. We're going to roll it out and we're going to cut it into six slices, the last sixth slice being bigger than the rest. Two, three, four, five, six perfect. Three, four, five and then this is our sixth one. So basically what we are doing is we are creating a color that's going to go in between the petals. Saying this is a petal and this is a petal in between that there is a triangle shape. So what we're going to do is going to roll out, roll out a log it's about the same length and you are going to take your two fingers and you are going to smush the top into a triangle shape."
