Blooming Polymer Clay Wreath

his clay sculpted wreath may look difficult to make, but it's really quite simple with the help of Push Molds. Brimming with roses, violets, and pansies, the baked white Fimo^® is painted with transparent acrylics to give the flowers and leaves lifelike color. The supporting base is a 5-inch brass macramé ring wrapped with clay. Step-by-step instructions for this wreath appeared in the April 1997 issue of Crafts Magazine.

Additional Ideas:

• Change the scale by using a smaller ring.
• Make a holiday wreath with the Poinsettias & Holly Push Mold.
• Build the wreath to fit around a circular mirror.
