We live full time in our RV. That is two of us plus two dogs living in about 400 square feet of space. The ultimate tiny home! And what this tiny home needs a little flamingo decor!
For this project I used polymer clay, gemstones, clear glue, acrylic paint and wooden dowels.
Polymer clay is very easy to work with. Simply soften it with your hands by kneading it. Then roll it out to about 1/4" thickness, using a large dowel or rolling pin.
Using a craft knife, cut out around the flamingo outline.
Place your clay flamingo on aluminum foil on a cookie sheet. Set your oven for 200 degrees and place them inside for about 30 minutes. Allow them to thoroughly cool before going to the next step.
Cut your dowels about 5" long. Glue them to the back of the flamingo as shown.
Now for the fun part! Add some bling! Simply add clear to sections of the flamingo and place colored gemstones in place.
