Tutorial for Buddy in his Tow Truck
|
Roll out red clay to about 1/3 of an inch thick. This is the base of
your ornament and you do not want it to be too thin.
Cut out the shape with a needle tool, exacto knife, knitting needle,
or anything with a point.
Make an indentation for the
tires. You can use your finger. I
used the end of my needle tool.
Roll 2 balls of black clay and
attach for the tires.
Roll 2 balls of gold clay and press
into the middle of the tires. These
are the rims and you can embellish
them in any way you wish. I
slightly pressed the end of my
needle tool into the center of the
gold clay.
Roll a log of gold clay and flatten
it onto the truck as shown. Roll a
silver snake and attach as shown.
I used Super Sculpey
for the dog biscuit.
You can cut it out with
a cookie cutter or
shape it by hand.
Press it on as shown
and fold the silver
snake over it to look
like a hook.
Roll a log of white clay and
attach it to the bottom of the
truck to make it look like he is
driving in snow. I also attached
a piece of white clay to the front
of the truck.
I shaped the dog's
head and put it the
window. i also put a
small black log to
represent the steering
wheel.
Here I have squeezed green clay
through a garlic press and attached
it as shown. Make a white snake and
a red snake,press them together and
twist for the candy cane garland.
Add red balls. I also gave Buddy a
red tongue.
Using a cookie
cutter,cut a star from
yellow clay
and attach.
Add 4 small leaves
and berries as shown.
Roll 2 white balls of
clay for the eyes and
attach 2 smaller black
balls of clay on top.
Add a red ball of clay
for the nose. Add a
hook and your
ornament is ready to
bake following the
instructions for the
clay you used.
Buddy is all baked and painted and ready to hang on the tree!
