Hi everyone!!! I’ve made a succulent DIY!!! I’m really excited to share it with you! 🙂 Here it is…
Material list:
- polymer clay
- chalk pastel dust
Step 1: Mix green and white polymer clay together
Before mixing…
After mixing…
Step 2: Take clay and roll it into balls. The size of the balls determines your leaf size because this ball will end up as a leaf.
Step 3: Flatten the balls and pinch one end into a point.
Step 4: Make a lot of these!
Repeat steps two through three.
Step 5: Make a base. This means take a few leaves and put the blunt ends together.
Step 6: Make a layer of leaves on top of the base layer.
Step 7: Make a layer on top of this. This is your final layer of leaves.
I made two!
Step 8: Brush chalk pastel dust against the tips of the leaves.
The plant part is done!
How to make a Pot
Step 1: Roll out a white ball of polymer clay, then push your them in gently. Make sure that is is about as wide as the plant.
Step 2: Put the plant on top!
And your plant is done!!!
What do you think? If you do the DIY, send me a few photos and I’ll be happy to post them!

Oh my goodness! You are so clever! Usually, people use clay to make FOOD for their dolls, but this is so awesome because I have been wanting more plants for them. I might try this. 👍

So pretty! I am definitely going to do this as soon as I get some polymer clay-any suggestions on brands/stores to get it from?

Thanks! I usually go to Michaels (the craft store), and buy Sculpy clay. I’ve tried another brand before (I don’t remember the name) and I thought it was really hard to roll. Premo Sculpy is also hard to roll. Regular sculpy is easy to roll and flatten, so I would go with that brand. 🙂 I hope that helps!
