Pukka Pens
You Will Need:
• oven bake clay
• Skewer
• Clear Varnish
• PVA Glue
• Modelling Clay
• Start by rolling the clay into a ball. Then push the skewer through the middle of the clay.
• Roll the clay into a sausage shape until it's about the same length as the inside of your old pen.
• For a stripy tiger effect put some small bits of oven bake clay onto the sausage. Push the little bits into the clay and keep on rolling.
• Before you pull the skewer all the way out, close up one end so the pen won't slide out.
• Pull the rest of the skewer out. Then transfer the clay to a baking tray and bake it according to the instructions on the packet.
• When it's cooked and cooled down you could add a coat of clear varnish. The easiest way to do this is to put the skewer back in the hole and paint on the varnish.
• Push the skewer into some modelling clay and leave it to dry.
• You could decorate the pen by sticking on some jewels with PVA glue.
• When it's dry slide in the inside of your old pen. And your pukka pen is finished.
• You can make other designs by using different shapes of oven baked clay pushed into the side.
