A Perfect Pair

What goes together better than hot chocolate and cookies? Am I right? This adorable set of polymer clay pieces can be used for just about anything. You can make them keychains for you and your best friend! Or you can make them small magnets like I did. If you decide to make them keychains, you should keep the eye pin flat on the back of the cookie plate, and secure it with a layer of clay. But if you choose to make them magnets, you have to make sure to use a blade and cut a small cavity in the back of the hot chocolate mug, and make sure the small magnetic piece fits in it. You should also try to do the same for the plate of cookies, but if you are unable to do so, then I would suggest making the bottom of the plate as flat as possible, avoiding a convex shape. This was my first time using the pearl clay in my Sculpey 24-color sampler set, and I would say that the results are satisfying. If you’re wondering how I got the hot chocolate into the mug, it is very simple. I used my tools for this, which are also from the brand Sculpey. Using a blade and the rounded ends of the tools shown below, I was able to carve out enough space in the pink cylinder of clay used to create the mug to fit in a small brown cylinder. And just to let you know, these pieces were not based on a YouTube video like some of my other creations. Anyway, thanks for reading! See you in the next post!
