Polymer clay mushroom dust plug charm

Hi I meant to post this tutorial on Thursday but unfortunately was too busy but its here now!

you will need,

a rolling pin
white clay ( i used effect )
red clay
brown clay
green clay
yellow clay
various pastels
a brush
a blunt knife


roll the white clay into a ball and slightly flatten two of the ends.

next roll out the red clay until it is flat and round.

split the remaining white clay into 5 small balls and flatten, then roll these into the red circle, this should form your mushroom roof!!!



next roll out the brown clay and cut into a triangle, make some marks with the blunt knife or fimo tool to give it a wooden effect, if you wish to you could add some pastel to make it more realistic.

next roll the remaining brown clay and some white clay together to create a marble effect, roll these into small balls and place around the door.

roll the green into a sausage and cut , wrap this around the door frame/stones and complete with small yellow dots of clay.

Finally cut the remaining green sausage into small pieces and place around the bottom of the mushroom to look like grass, this is optional but i think it creates a nice effect, add a dusting of brown  pastel to add some realism and your done!

Hope you enjoy)
