Hello dear readers! Did you miss me?While most of you might think that I have abandoned this blog, sadly, you are sorely mistaken.
I had been channeling my inner Lady Whistledown since I am still busy with my work, reading and watching the Bridgertons.
In this post, I decided to use some of my gold leaf to see if I can come up with some unique look.
I started with 2 ordinary clay.
Roll it.
Make the flower details.
And here are my gold leaf. They are originally intended for nail art. But who cares? I just wanna use it for my craft.
I made my initial sculpture. I chose the ordinary clay. No tints/ glitters/ transluscent effect. Since this is a test run,
I want to observe exactly how the gold leaf behaves with an ordinary clay.
Apply. I did not use any glue. The stickiness on the clay made it easy for me to do that. I did use some tools to lift the gold leaf from its container as it sticks to my skin.
A bit more on the details. These are all organic. I know that the face details are lopsided, looks really crazy, etc. But I wanted to create something that looks authentic so yeah, I did just that.
Finished look- with all my fingerprints all over.
Post baking looks before "glazing it with nail polish."
Final looks:
For size comparison.
