Jewellery making project: textures for metal clay

If you want to create truly unique metal clay or polymer clay jewellery, you’ll want to take a look at our latest step-by-step project on creating texture sheets.

The project, from LJS tutor Mary Ann Nelson, takes you through the process of working with UV light and photo polymer plates to turn black and white images into textures.

It then explains how to use that texture to create your own unique pieces.

The earring and pendant set shown here and in the project uses an abstract design but you can use the same technique with simple black and white drawings. You can learn more about this in our Prints and Drawings in Metal Clay class.
