Techniques and tips for successful Sculpey jewelry making
The success of your polymer clay jewelry depends on preparation. We advise you to condition your dough well (knead it) to make it malleable. Mixing colors is one of the great strengths of Sculpey: create your own shades by mixing the dough loaves together. For a professional finish, don't hesitate to use texture plates or alcohol inks before placing your pieces in the oven (generally 130°C for 30 minutes, according to the manufacturer's recommendations).

What are the differences between Sculpey and Fimo?

How to store Sculpey paste after opening?
Once opened, Sculpey can be stored in airtight packaging, away from heat, dust and light. You can wrap it in plastic film and place it in a closed box. This prevents it from hardening or picking up impurities. These tips will help you keep your dough for a long time, even after opening.
