Going along with the harvest theme and the fun of making polymer clay miniatures here’s a tutorial for putting together tomatoes, chilies and eggplants. The tutorial suggests air dry clay or polymer clay and either would work – particularly the coloured air dry clays like Makins. With polymer clay you wouldn’t need to worry about the white glue and could simply stick raw to raw or raw to cured clay. Use a little liquid polymer clay for backup.
To turn your tiny veggies into charms, embed a jump ring into the still raw clay and heal the seam. Add a little liquid clay over the spot on polymer clay. Finish as normal. These would make cute charms on a bracelet.
