About
These were made with translucent Sculpey (but you can use white too). I baked them for 10-15 minutes at 275 degrees on a cookie sheet lined with wax paper (I also shaped the figures on the wax paper), then used random brands of acrylic paint that I already had lying around the house, and Delta Ceramcoat Gloss Interior Varnish, just because I already had it at home & didn't want to buy Sculpey glaze LOL. I find it saves a lot of money to just buy white or translucent and then paint it, rather than going for all the different colours of Sculpey.
Just a little warning for anyone who might want to try to make their own Sculpey figures, there are only certain types of varnishes that you can safely use with Sculpey, besides the Sculpey glaze itself. The cheapest type of finish that is OK to use on Sculpey is probably acrylic-based clear nail polish, but don't use any sort of enamel-based products as it will render your figure sticky.
I also made a pair of matching scar earrings! But I won't post them as they're pretty much the same deal as the scar charm in the middle of the bracelet. :)
