Mushroom Girls hanging ornaments polymer clay WIP tutorial

 I thought I posted this already here but apparently not, so here they are!

I start out making the armatures. In this post I am going to be showing how I made 3 different OOAK mushroom girl polymer clay ornaments using the same Patricia Rose Cupcake mold. I never really paid attention to what gauge to use for which size. If I'm scratch building, I already have the pose in the wire. When I'm using the molds, I would need to pose into shape. I think I tend to use too strong of a wire. 

I'm using a mix of cernit and super sculpey pressed into the mold. 

I tend to fill the molds with more clay because if you put less the two halves won't meet and then you have to redo it. 

I trim off the extra clay with a hobby knife. 

out of the mold and cleaned up I do the pose and add the mushroom cap hap. Face of this one is the closest to the mold face. 

Here is the mushroom person finished and painted. 

In the Christmas tree view. 

Using the same mold, I also made this sleeping version. 

Here is a clearer view of the face. 

Here is the 3rd one I did in this series of ornaments. 

Here is a closeup for this one. 

All of three of these are for sale in my etsy shop!
