Polymer Clay and Resin Pendant Tutorial Faux Cloisonne by Eugena Topina
Skill level: beginner to advanced.
Wouldn't it be great if you could create cloisonne jewelry elements right home and without any complicated equipment, hot metals, or melted glass?
You can make a very close and convincing imitation of this ancient metal-working technique using polymer clay and resin. Let me teach you my signature Faux Cloisonne technique, which you will be able to use with any of your own designs.
“This is a great tutorial. I didn't make the heart, but made a pendant from a pattern that I already had. It turned out great.” Binnie (Tennessee, United States)
You will learn:
- how to make focal polymer clay parts for necklaces, brooches, rings, or earrings in ANY shape;
- how to choose and shape the wire for your faux cloisonne designs;
- how to color your focal parts;
- how to decorate them with Swarovski crystals;
- how to make your Faux Cloisonne creations smooth and durable;
- and above all – how to avoid and correct the most common mistakes while working with this technique.
This tutorial includes 16 pages of instructions with more than 30 big full-color pictures showing every step and a complete list of tools and materials.
Bonus: 15 ready-to-use sketches for different faux cloisonne heart pendants.
Note: If you need instructions for working with two-part epoxy resin, please refer to my separate and very detailed tutorial
How to use EnviroTex Lite or ICE resin.
By the way, if you are up to for more challenge with this technique, I have a more advanced tutorial in Faux Cloisonne series for you:
