Description I have started experimenting with polymer clay directly on resin. I was thrilled to see that that resin can actually withstand oven heat 130 Celsius (the temp. for hardening polymer clay). It opened up for new possibilities.

Made with epoxy resin and polymer clay. Gilded with silver leaf.

I saw him on Etsy and already asked myself how you crafted him
He´s sooooo beautifull! No.3 I definately want to buy someday

Its amazing the resin withstands such a heat O.O I don´t think I would have had the guts to try that out!

Thank you so much!!
To tell you the truth, I was a little nervous the first time a piece went in the oven. I kind of expected to pull out a half-melted, foul-smelling pool of plastic. But all it did was tint the resin a bit yellow

You´re very welcome!
I thought so, I would have moved away from it even a second, fire-extinguisher right by my side
Such a great technique, can´t wait what you´ll do with it next:eager.
