The more experiments I run with Apoxie Sculpt the better I like it!

For my steampunk pendant, I started with a thick layer of pink Apoxie Sculpt.  I used a roller to create this shape and I choose not to trim it so my edges would look distressed.  I let the Apoxie “rest” like this for 30 minutes.  It makes it less sticky for the next technique.

I pressed the clay into one of my rubber stamps.  The letters impressed beautifully.  Then it was up to me to choose from my stash of odds and ends.  I pressed all of the findings you see into the Apoxie.  No additional glue or tools were needed.

24 hour later my Apoxie was cured and super hard!  I used a tiny drill to make a few holes so I could attach one additional steampunk item; a tiny glass component.

My final step was to attach a small bail with glue to the back of the pendant.  Once again I have a one of a kind piece of jewelry to wear because of Apoxie Sculpt.
