Easy Things to Make Out of Sculpy

10 crafts made with liquid sculpey

If you're wondering what to do with liquid polymer clay, that unique fluid clay that comes in a bottle, we've got you covered with 10 fun liquid clay projects to try at home. Anyone can make these creations in an afternoon, even with zero claying experience!

Benefits of Using Liquid Sculpey®

Liquid clay is a viscous version of polymer clay that comes in a bottle. Liquid clay bakes in the oven like traditional polymer clay, but it cures to a more flexible form.

Jewelry crafters and other creators love using Liquid Sculpey® Clear, the most transparent, crystal-clear liquid clay finish on the market. Use liquid polymer clay in your crafts to:

  • Squeeze dots
  • Drizzle details
  • Freehand designs
  • Write words
  • Make outlines
  • Trace images
  • Pour into molds
  • Make clings

10 Liquid Sculpey® Crafts to Make at Home

Discover what to do with Liquid Sculpey® to make your own clings, ornaments, coasters and other crafts. With our ever-growing collection of colors and finishes, project ideas are countless!

1. Mirror and Window Clings

Teachers and students love creating liquid clay crafts to decorate classroom windows for different seasons and educational themes. Place a piece of oven-proof glass over an image. Twist open your Liquid Sculpey® bottle cap a little and trace a thin outline on the glass, then bake. Flood each section with color and bake again.

These peel-and-stick clings can be repositioned, removed and replaced at any time:

  • Holiday clings: Create interchangeable wreaths, snowflakes, pumpkins, bats and more!
  • Glass door decor: Safe and stylish clings add visibility and pops of color to otherwise plain glass.

2. Stained Glass Panels

Get the look of stained glass for less by making your own! Follow the instructions above for mirror and window clings. Outline with Silver Liquid Sculpey® to resemble leading, and create a slag glass effect by tinting Liquid Sculpey Clear panels with different colors of mica powders or alcohol inks.

The possibilities are endless:

  • Privacy panels: Faux stained glass panels in bathroom windows let in light while maintaining privacy.
