Pendant tutorial: orchid from polymer clay

And it does not have to be a guru or have stotysch-hour experience with polymer clay.

We start with a picture of our petals.
I consulted with him and decided that I needed two colors: white and light pink.




Of white plastic, I form the "stump" and covered it with a ribbon, roll of pink plastic.




Further squeezed. Long uzhatuyu sausage cut. A third of tidy away. The remaining two-thirds rezhu on wedges (in my case it is 8 bars of equal length). Back to the lazy-thirds. I keep it stretched, and then cut so as to 8 identical in length bars.




Large wedges (in the sense of those that have a larger diameter), I flatten and stack up.




I spread over them wedges of smaller diameter.




Now I received a bar to shrink. But before I squeezed it all, I'll do one side of the bar more centered, larger than life figure for the petals.




Squeezed. And so what we do in the context of:




Now we begin to sculpt.

At its discretion, attach petals rippling, helping himself with a toothpick.





The last remaining petal. I call it "skirt", and someone calls a "beard":)






Remains to be done "nose" - and ready:)
I rolled a small piece of plastic, giving it a drop-shaped




Place it in the opposite direction from the "skirt" and just press down with a toothpick.




and then gently bend it toward a "skirt"





The flower is ready:)
Now, stand it on a surface on which it is baked. In my case it's a piece of cardboard. Baking temperature - 130 degrees, baking time - 25 minutes.




After baking - varnish (not so much shine, but in order to secure the bright flower of dirt and dust). Pendant is ready:)
