How to make a chunky feather cuff bracelet mica shift with polymer clay

Today's tutorial features a totally simple quick way to use mica shift techniques. You don't have to get fussy with mica shift, and when you use the same stamp to create both the flat mica shift areas AND highly textured areas, you get a really nice coordinating design.

Kira used the Feather Your Nest rubber stamp, Peacock Feather silkscreen, Blowing in the Wind feather mold, and a bracelet blank to create this project. You can get the stamp, screen, and mold in our Feather Your Nest tool collection, or get them separately.

Fun with spoons and polymer clay! How to use a spoon as an armature

We had a spoon owl swap at Polymer Clay Adventure last month. What's a Spoon Owl? Glad you asked! Spoons make a great base for sculpting things like critters and faces, even beads. They are smooth and have a slight curve, and they can go right into the oven. Then whatever you made pops right off after baking!

These owls were created on large tablespoons but you can use any spoon. Give it a try.
Here are some of the tools we used- our brand new Feather Your Nest rubber stamp makes a fabulous Sutton Slice! Be sure to check out our free Video Tutorial below and you can make your own.
