I had some polymer clay laying around so I made these little girls this morning. I’m sure just any clay would do, whatever you might have laying around in the house.

Polymer clay can be found in pretty much any craft store.

You are going to need three different pieces, and no other tools necessary than your two hands. Don´t worry about size, you can play around with this until you find the proportions you like.

I used the back of a brush for  the hair on this one.

Play around with different “haircuts” until you’re happy.

Once you are done it is time to bake these little ones. Make sure to read the description. Mine said 215°F (100°C) for 30 minutes. Let figures cool completely before touching.

Here comes the FUN part! You are going to need craft paint, water, a small brush and your clay figures.

Done! I also finished with one coat of matt varnish, just to make their lives a little longer.
