Materials and tools:
- Polymer clay (colors of your choice)
- Machine
- Czextuder + LC Disk 8 and 14 (2 half circles and small square)
- Mold
- Scalpel, blade
- Laminated working grid
- Hot glue gun
- Superglue
Step 1
Condition polymer clay and put it into the Czextruder. You can use any color you like. Use the small square disc from LC Disk 14 and extrude the clay.
Step 2
Let’s make the rim part. Cut a strip and wrap it around the mold. Cut off the excess clay and connect both ends. Bake it according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Step 3
Step 4
Use the Laminated working grid from Lucy Clay and cut the extrusions into pieces of the same length.
Step 5
Move the extrusions to the tile. Use a blade to straighten them. Let it cool down completely before removing the parts from the tile.
Step 6
Now make the bottom part. Make another tick sheet and use the baked rim part as a stencil to cut a circle. Bake it.
Step 7
Prepare a hot glue gun. Take the bottom part and the rim part and connect them using four blocks (see picture).
Step 8
Glue in more blocks. They should be placed evenly. I used superglue.
Step 9
Make three balls from polymer clay and bake them. Then glue them to the bottom. Your plant stand is ready.
