Believe it or not that floral pendant in the above photo is made from polymer clay, not metal!
Not only that, but it took very little time to make. In this video I’ll show you how easy it is to make a mold of a button, or any found object, and then paint and color it to create your own personalized jewelry components.
I highly recommend that you find several items to make impressions of and paint, as it can be hard to know which ones will be your favorites when all done. 🙂
Here are a few of the products used in this project:
- Easy Mold Silicone Molding Putty
- Clay Blade
- Swelligant paints and patinas
- Golden’s Iridescent Pearl paint
If you’d like more info on how to get the great patinaed look with Swelligant paints, this video is very helpful: How to Use Swelligant with Christi Friesen.
Happy creating and enjoy the video!

So interesting! I appreciated the detailed step-by-step instructions in your videos.
Thanks, Robin! I’m glad to know that. 🙂
