After my hand-sewn dress project for my baby Girl, making a no-sew tutu skirt comes next. But before I can even get my hands on tulle that I bought from divi, this \’clay art thing\’ caught my attention and was eager to try hand crafting using polymer clay.
As a beginner in this craft, I was a little surprised on how time consuming it turned out to be. I watched youtube tutorials on making chibis and simple creations and it took them less than an hour to finish their art work, mine took 4 hours of trial and error. Well I guess that was pretty normal, I need to learn more designing techniques to came up with a much more smooth-finished clay works.
I ordered \”Get Go pack\” Flexible basic colors and a pack of skin color from Claytoons, and waited for a perfect time to get started. That\’s when the kids were sound asleep!

Baking temp at 130° for 30min. was just perfect for Nendo Clay! I showed my clay creations with my 6-yr. old son, he said it\’s \’sobra\’ cute and ask if he could help in making some more.
He requested, this \”perman\” mini figure… I swear, \”hindi sya madaling gawin\”. I spent a couple of hours doing this in two consecutive nights.

| I wasn\’t able to finish it with one seating because someone volunteered to \’help\’. |
My B was wide awake at the time I\’m working on this, so to keep me undisturbed while trying to complete perman\’s parts, I assigned him to copy a boy\’s face to keep him entertained doing on his own.

| Nice try! Gotta have more on mommy\’s artistic side. |
I did enjoy every minute spent doing this art project. Cheers to having more time at home that allows me to do more art craft projects that makes my heart oh-so-happy! =)
