Premo Sculpey White Translucent clay is fresh and easy to work with.
Description
Premo is ideal for the seasoned clay artist or enthusiast! It's soft enough for easy blending yet firm enough to retain intricate details, making it perfect for specialized techniques.
Please make sure your work area is covered and you are not working on an unprotected surface. We recommend working on a craft mat, wax paper, metal baking sheet, or disposable foil. Uncured clay may damage unprotected furniture or finished surfaces. Be sure to cover your crafting area appropriately.
When Sculpey Premo™ becomes too firm it can be softened using various techniques:
Sculpey Premo™ polymer clay is loved by beginners and experienced crafters alike for its flexibility and strength. This Sculpey clay is soft and easily malleable, making it easy to work with while still being firm enough to hold intricate detail.
Sculpey Premo™ is great for many claying applications, including advanced techniques like caning, mixed media or mokume gane. You can use it for creating finely detailed charms, jewelry, faux stones or unique pieces of home decor. The metallic and pearl selections feature a high concentration of mica particles, making it perfect for incorporating captivating mica shift effects on your jewelry or any other creation.
This great polymer clay comes in a wide variety of colors and styles, including translucent, metallic, glitter and pearl varieties that are easy to blend to create one-of-a-kind pieces. With Sculpey Premo™, you can make all your most creative ideas come alive.
Any polymer clay including Sculpey Premo will not dry out. Sculpey clay will only get hard when baked in the oven. While this clay does not dry out from the air, we do recommend storing the clay in an airtight container to prevent hair and debris from getting in the clay.
Sculpey Premo™ remains soft and pliable until it's baked. The clay's flexibility and our broad color selection allow you to let your imagination run wild. Once you've molded this great polymer clay into your desired creation, bake at the recommended temperature, time and thickness and watch your masterpiece come to life. Sculpey Premo™ can be carved, glazed, sanded and painted after baking to add those finishing touches.
The things you can make with Sculpey Premo™ are endless — this polymer clay is excellent for crafting various trinkets, jewelry and faux stones. Here are some ideas for when you have clay or are considering getting more but don't know where to start with your crafting.
Use the clay to create stunning earrings, bracelets, rings and necklace pendant designs. Mix and match the diverse Sculpey Premo™ clay colors to develop exciting patterns like marble, swirl, chevron, kaleidoscope and other intricate designs. If you have cut-out tools with special shapes, you can easily use your clay patterns as the base for the items you're making.
Whether you are a plant lover or want to add a personal touch to your or a loved one's home, use Sculpey Premo™ clay to make unique home decor items. Polymer clay is an excellent way to craft small or large plant holders.
You could also use the clay to make wall-hanging decorations that match your aesthetic or other trending items and styles. Your home decorations don't have to stay on the wall or hold your plants, either. You could also use Sculpey Premo™ clay to design and make special coasters to hold drinks. Additionally, you could add color and more personality to picture frames to highlight a specific photo. The household decor items you can create using Sculpey Premo™ polymer clay are vast.
If you prefer to give handmade gifts for the holidays or want to provide others with unique presents, you can use your clay crafting skills to make beautiful ornaments. The shapes and designs you come up with will make bold statements on people's trees or around their homes if they like to display ornaments elsewhere or year-round.
The clay crafting world is your oyster, and if you have an affinity for the ocean, you can easily craft a clam-shaped dish to hold your jewelry or other everyday things. Use Sculpey Premo™ clay to make organization dishes and boxes following any theme, pattern or aesthetic. Besides standard trinket dishes and boxes, you could also make jars for writing utensils or makeup brushes. You will produce visually stunning items with the various colors and fine details of Sculpey Premo™ clay.
Premo Sculpey White Translucent clay is fresh and easy to work with.
Like the regular translucent the white is fresh and nice to work with. I use it mainly when working with cool color clays
I love this translucent, it has always been my backup translucent!! I was so happy to see it available in 1lb packages again at PolyClayPlay and immediately bought some. This translucent has minimal placking, if at all, has a really nice consistency when conditioned and is easy to firm up when ready to make thin slices. It works beautifully with alcohol inks and bakes to a very good translucency. I haven’t had problems with it yellowing after baking. This translucent is helpful in being able to preserve my Pardo and Cernit translucents for special projects
I like using white translucent when making faux gemstone techniques
All the products I have received from Polyclayplay have been exactly what I order and quality. The customer service has also been nice and responsive. Plan on using this as my main avenue for the items I need.
Same as regular premo translucent, a little dry and crumbly as well. Have to mix it with liquid clay to soften it.
I too was a bit taken back when I first started working with this translucent clay. It was crumbly and nothing like the quality of the other clays. So, I called Trish! She told me the issue that sometimes happens with translucent clay and exactly what to do. I followed her directions and the translucent mixed beautifully with my other clays. Made a beautiful leaf bowl.
I've been happy with all the clay except 2 of the bars of white translucent were so hard and crumbly. it took a long time to bring it back to being pliable.
