Last week we launched our newest Sculpted Relief Buy & Try Program. Within this technique tutorial we showed just how easy it is to create unique Crystal Clay sculpted pendants with molds made from silicone putty and brass stampings. This week, let’s take a look at how to create a faux porcelain look with Nunn Design Resin and Craftin’ Craft Opaque Colorants. All of the items to create this great look are currently on sale through May 4th, 2014 at Nunn Design. Be inspired to Buy & Try this great limited time offer!

Let’s Recap

To see a full tutorial on how this is done, you can visit our blog post or download our free tutorial. But if you learn like me (why read when I can look at pictures!) I’ll give you the 5-second executive summary.

Step 1: Create Your Mold

Create your mold. Using Easy Mold Silicone Putty, mix thoroughly and press in your brass stamping of choice. Mix Crystal Clay and set into your Nunn Design Bezel. Create a sculpted relief by pressing the mold into the clay filled bezel.


Step 2: Colorize The Resin

Colorize with resin with Craftin’ Craft Opaque Pigments. To create a faux porcelain look, mix Nunn Design 2 Part Resin and add a TINY bit of blue and yellow Craftin’ Crafts Opaque Pigments.


Step 3: Apply Colorized Resin

Apply colorized resin to sculpted relief. I let my mixed and colorized resin set up for about 15 minutes before applying it to the sculpted relief.
