What you need

Clay in these colours

  • Brown
  • Orange
  • Dark brown
  • Black

All these colours are in the Polymer Clay Kit (82 colours). See the kit

  • Sculpting tools from the kit
  • An electric oven and baking paper. An adult does the baking.

Step by step

  1. Roll a brown ball and flatten the bottom slightly.

  2. Press a large flat orange circle onto the front as the breast.

  3. Make two flat brown teardrops and press them on the sides as wings.

  4. Press a flat brown fan on at the back as the tail.

  5. Roll a small dark brown point and press it onto the orange as the beak.

  6. Press two black eyes above the beak. Done!

Tip

Press the orange circle nice and flat with your thumb, so the breast turns out smooth and round.

An adult does the baking

  • 110–130 °C, never higher
  • 10–15 minutes per 6 mm of thickness
  • Electric oven only
  • Let it cool completely; attach cords and beads only after that
