Dragon Eyes

Happy weekend my dragons! This weekend has been a busy crafting weekend for me and I have been preparing two new posts for all y'all. But you didn't open this post to hear me talk, so let's get to it!

Supplies

Half Marbles

Oven bake Sculpey

Acrylic Paint (black and whatever colors you want)

Your imagination!

Step 1: Paint your marble! Paint the pupil first, then the eye color around it. There are a couple different eye styles you could do. The red eye I did two eyeshine spots and then gold mixed with black around it. The brown eye I did a wide pupil. The one I made for this tutorial I did a thin pupil that didn't take up too much space.

Step 2: Clay work. Start with a circle of thin clay. Put the eye into it and fold the clay down around it like a candy wrapper. Add super tiny dots around it. I used bigger ones at the top and smaller on the bottom.

Step 3: Bake! If you are using Sculpey, bake for 15 minutes per 1/4 inch. I only had to bake it 15 minutes.

Step 4: Display!

You could use this as necklaces, dragon treasure, or LARP accessories. I hope you enjoyed this tutorial!
