Polymer Clay Octopus Container
Project designed by Becky Meverden
Materials and Tools:
3 oz. packages Kato Polyclay: 2 white, black, violet, magenta
lavender clay (2″ ball white plus 1/2″ ball violet)
pink clay: (7/16″ ball white plus 5/16″ ball magenta)
pasta machine or acrylic roller
2-1/2″ glass votive
3/4″ Kemper circle cutter or toothpick
ball stylus
Kato NuBlade
paring knife, dedicated to polymer clay
aluminum foil
paper towel
parchment paper or index cards to bake on
Steps:
1. Flatten two sheets of lavender through the pasta machine at a #1 setting (1/8 inch). Flatten one sheet large enough to cover the top of the votive and the second sheet long and wide enough to cover the outside of the votive.
2. For the top, place the votive upside down on the smaller sheet and use a knife to cut out a circle about 1/8 inch from the votive top. Set the top aside.
