How to Make
- Create 3 paper heart templates to your desired sizes. Roll out 3 thin slabs of clay. 2 silver and 1 gold. Place your templates on top (large and small on silver, medium on gold) and cut round them carefully with a craft knife.
- Place them on a curved surface to create a shallow bowl shape. A saucer works well. Allow to dry thoroughly so that they will hold this shape. This can take 24 hours.
- Once dry paint the plates and allow to dry between coats/ colours. Use:
- Metallic silver on the top side of the large heart and both sides of the small heart, leaving the edge paint free.
- Paint the back of the medium and large heart in a matt finish / pastel pink paint.
- Paint the top of the gold heart in metallic gold paint.
- Paint the edge of the small heart in pink.
- Use a craft knife to remove any excess paint on the edges of the large and medium plates so that you can see the contrasting matt gold and silver clay below.
- Use a Deco pen to create a linear pattern on the bottom of both the large and medium plate. Allow to dry thoroughly.
