Seaside Shells with Delight Clay™

Hello and welcome to another blog post. Today I am continuing with my seaside theme. We will be making some shells using Delight Clay™ and a mold. 



Supplies needed:

*If you don't have these use a pearl acrylic paint.

Follow the steps below:

Begin by adding a drop of off-white acrylic paint to the Delight Clay and blending. This will give a nice base color for the shells.



Now press the clay into the mold.





Gently remove and set aside to dry.

Trim the edges with scissors if necessary and sand away any uneven bits. I nail file is perfect for this.


Apply a coat of clear gesso and allow to dry.

To finish off, mix a bit of gold mica powder with an acrylic glazing medium and use to paint the shells.



Arent those beautiful! And they were so simple to make. Be sure to save these as we will be using them on a mixed media board soon. Next month I will be making corals, also with Delight Clay™ so be sure to subscribe so you don't miss out.
