    Project by Debra Gevant from Atlanta, Ga.


    Having crafted her first "sculpture" at the age of 3, it is no surprise that Debra would have a broad range of artistic skills as an adult. In this project, Debra sculpts a distinctive piece of polymer clay wearable art.


    Materials:


    polymer clay
    acrylic paint
    metallic paint in gold
    metallic pen in silver
    crystal gems
    cord
    super strong adhesive


    Steps:


    1. Sculpt the figure in polymer clay.


    2. Once dry, paint with any white primer.


    3. Paint face and hands flesh color.


    4. Paint nose and lips red, and paint pink on cheeks.


    5. Paint body, foot rings, and shirt cuffs gold.


    6. Paint arms, shoes, hair and eyes with black acrylic paint.


    7. Using a silver metallic pen, paint stripes on arm.


    8. Glue crystal rhinestones on body with super-strong adhesive.


    9. Use leather cord and attach to foot rings to length desired.


    10. Optional: Use black permanent marker to make some crystals black. Paint glitter mixed with gloss medium on hat.
