Women have been decorating themselves since the beginning of time. Archaeologists find amazing and original things all over the world. The cities of the Incas, who worshiped the golden god, the Aztecs and Mayans, the tombs of the Valley of the Kings of Egypt, the palaces of the emperors in China, the Persian and Scythian mounds, all contained original decorations endowed with special charm and magnetism.

It was their originality and attractiveness that created a new wave of popularity and inspired designers to create more and more collections in ethnic style.

Such jewelry has a very special energy. Perhaps they do not always have enough grace compared to the creations of Tiffany and Swarovski, but such jewelry delights will be cold pieces of ice, indifferent to your beauty. Whereas ethnic jewelry will warmly highlight your features and become an original accent to your entire look.

Ethnic style jewelry is made from a variety of materials, shells, feathers, beautiful stones and beads. However, there is a material that can easily imitate all these details and will become a real find for fans of hand-made jewelry - polymer clay. Pliable, soft and plastic material, has a rich palette of colors and a lot of different effects: metallic, glitter and even fluorescence.

There are several styles of ethnic jewelry. Today we propose to do polymer clay necklace in Asian style.

You will need:

Green polymer clay;
Stationery blade;
Rolling tool (you can use a pasta machine, acrylic or glass rolling pin). The main requirement for the tool will be an absolutely flat surface;
Toothpicks;
Acrylic paint (golden metallic);
Transparent varnish with gloss effect;
Accessories for a necklace (pins, connecting rings, small sections of bronze-colored chain, lobster clasp);
Gold beads in two sizes.

To create a necklace we will need a whole package of clay. We make necklaces in green and bronze tones, but you can choose any other colors to suit your taste.

Before working, the clay must be kneaded very well. It is more convenient to do this in several portions. Now we connect them into one piece.

We divide it visually into three equal parts. Now we don't need just one. Let's put it aside for now. Cut the remaining 2/3 pieces into five pieces. 1 slightly larger (this will be the central part of the necklace, 2 slightly smaller, these will be the details on the sides of the main part and two even smaller, these will be the side details.

Now all the pieces need to be rolled out. We fold the layers in half and make trapezoidal blanks (see photo). A stationery knife cuts polymer clay perfectly.

Now we go back to the first 1/3 of the original piece of clay. We will make beads from it. From it we need to mold several different parts. We make flat beads from two small balls. We roll the remaining pieces into small cylinders and cut some of them into flat beads.

Now we make through holes in each of our beads. We pierce them with a toothpick. If you have a special drill for making holes in already baked beads, you don’t have to use toothpicks. For trapezoidal blanks, two holes must be made.

Now we start decorating the beads. To do this, we will use clay scraps from our trapezoids. Many, many, many flagella are needed. Or one long one. It is better to come up with a pattern for the location of the ornament in advance. Between the curls place tiny balls rolled from pieces of flagellum.

It is convenient to attach them with a toothpick. But try to leave as few marks and fingerprints on the clay as possible. Ideally, it is generally better to use gloves. Regular latex surgical ones are suitable for this.

Now we begin to make holes in all the decorative elements of the bead. If you have special tools, that’s good, but if you don’t have them, use a thin knitting needle, a toothpick, or even a regular hairpin. It has such comfortable balls at the ends that can be used to make beautiful holes.

When we have made all the trapezoidal blanks, we move on to two large round and flat beads and cylinders. We also decorate them with balls and strands. We do not remove the toothpicks. Simply pierce flat small pieces with a toothpick.

Now we send all the preparations to bake in the oven. Strictly follow the instructions on the clay package. If you do not comply with the temperature or time conditions, you risk hopelessly damaging the product.

After the blanks have dried, you need to cover all those wonderful decorative curls and balls that we attached to the beads. Fingers or a roller are best for this, since a brush will paint the entire surface, and we don’t need that.

Completely dried pieces are coated with glossy varnish.

All that remains is to string our beads, alternating them with prepared fittings and round beads, attach a clasp and the necklace in the style of hot Asia is ready.

In this master class you will learn how to make beads from polymer clay in an ethnic style. They will appeal to lovers of eco- and ethnic style.

We will need:

polymer clay in several colors
acrylic paints
varnish for polymer clay
toothpicks
blade (for cutting clay)
coarse sandpaper
waxed cord
wood beads
accessories.

We decide on a color scheme, ornament and begin to create. I start with the ornament itself. Making sausage. I will not describe this process in detail, because... There are a lot of lessons on this topic, so I will only show step-by-step photos, and those who wish will find a detailed description on the Internet.

We squeeze our sausage, starting from the middle.

This is what happened.

Set the sausage aside and prepare the base beads. We make balls from clay scraps. I have them all of the same size (this is how the beads were originally conceived), but this is not at all necessary, it all depends on the imagination of the creator.

Now we “stick” each ball with the main color of the bead (I have chocolate). This is all done solely in order to save clay; you could simply roll balls of clay of the main color and that’s it, or you could use wooden beads as the base beads, then the design would be much lighter (for those who don’t like heavy jewelry). This time I did it like that.

Now our base beads are ready, let’s start decorating them! I make semblances of hats from black clay.

Now it’s the sausage’s turn... I cut the sausage into circles and glue the ornament to the beads.

I intentionally do not compare the pattern with a bead, I do not make it smooth and round, but if you want, you just need to roll the bead between your palms and roll out the pattern.

At this stage I place the beads on toothpicks.

Using tubes of different diameters (anything that comes to hand, from ballpoint pens to straws, only the required diameter is important) and a blade, we create a texture - stripes, dashes, etc.

And we send it to bake, as written in the instructions for the clay you are using.

Then I arm myself with coarse sandpaper and...

I begin to mercilessly scratch the beads.

This is what I did with them.

Well, now tinting! We take white acrylic paint and completely paint over our beads.

This is what happens.

Until the paint is completely dry (it should dry, but not dry, otherwise it will be very difficult to remove), wash it with a damp cloth.

I really love experimenting with tinting and I didn’t miss this opportunity. These beads seemed a little boring to me and I decided to add a little ocher and black... just a little, in places.

We erase the paint again and admire it! If the result is not satisfactory, then we tint again. As a last resort, you can cover everything with white paint again and erase it, or you can use sandpaper to help get rid of the excess tint.

My beads are ready for varnishing!

I would like to remind you that we use varnish ONLY for polymer clay, because... Other polishes may start to stick after a while, and some polishes will never dry at all! And all the work will be ruined!!!
By the way, you don’t have to varnish it, it’s just that then the beads will be less bright, which in some cases is even good (for example, I don’t varnish aged beads or “stones”).

The beads are dry, you can start assembling!

I assembled my beads on a waxed cord using wooden beads (there's a complete flight of fancy here).

All that remains is to attach the clasp and trim the ends, which is what I did! I like handmade work to be as handmade as possible, and that’s why I don’t like to use factory fittings, so I decided to make a hook clasp from copper wire - I twisted it, beat it, covered it with a patina and secured it! I will not describe this process in detail, because... This is a completely different topic.

I had a couple of beads left and made earrings to go with it! Here is the result!

Ethnic style is one of the most original, beautiful and original. You can complete the look with beautiful homemade earrings. In this step-by-step master class for beginners with photographs, you will learn how to make unusual ethnic earrings with your own hands from polymer clay and imitate an aged metal surface.

To work on the earrings we will need:

Polymer clay of a metallic copper color (if this color is not available, you can use brown or chocolate);
blue acrylic paint (if you don’t have pure blue, you can make it by diluting white with a drop of blue until you get a heavenly shade);
a cutter in the shape of a circle (I have a 4 cm diameter, do not use very small cutters, the part may not work out, it is better to cut out a template on paper);
toothpick or thick needle;
ear wires;
large rings (approximately 8 mm);
crystal beads;
texture sheet (if you don't have a texture sheet, use any other item with a textured surface: buttons, bead caps, pendants, etc.)

Master class on sculpting ethnic jewelry from polymer clay

1) Knead the polymer clay until soft and roll it out to a thickness of 3-4 mm. Just wide enough to fit the cutter.

2) Sprinkle the textured sheet generously with water (water can be replaced with talc) so that the clay does not stick to the surface. If you do not have a texture sheet and are using stamps, then we moisten the surface of the clay itself.

3) Using a roller, roll a layer of clay over the surface of the texture sheet. Press very well so that the entire design is imprinted.

4) Carefully remove the clay and use a round cutter to cut out two circles with the pattern facing up.

5) Use a cotton swab to remove excess water and gather the two edges of the circle together. Press lightly with your fingers so that the sides stick together. A damp cloth can remove fingerprints from the folds.

6) In the center of the folds, make a hole with a toothpick, to which the ring will cling.

We send the blanks to be fired in the oven at the temperature indicated on the polymer clay packaging (I fire at a temperature of 130 degrees for 10 minutes).

7) We wait until the workpiece cools down and completely cover it with acrylic blue paint, trying not to miss a single small pattern, so that the paint fills all the cracks.

Let the paint dry and after a few minutes remove the excess with a damp cloth.

8) We wait a couple more minutes until the moisture on the surface of the workpiece has completely evaporated, and cover it with varnish.

The varnish here serves as protection against scuffs, in which the paint can peel off, and also gives an interesting glossy surface effect.

9) After the varnish has dried, we begin to assemble the earrings. Using round-nose pliers, we bend one edge of the ring, insert it into the earring blank and close it. We put a copper-colored crystal bead on the pin and also use pliers to make loops on both sides, one of which we insert into the ring.

10) Use pliers to bend the loop of the earring and place it on the bead. We close the loop.

Ethnic earrings made of polymer clay with imitation of ancient steel are ready. All that remains is to try on the new jewelry and complete your new look.
