Nowadays I absolutely love modeling with clays. Working with clay is so therapeutic and relaxing. You get to do a variety of projects with clay from trays, bowls to wall hangings.
Wall hangings can create depth to any space and I am so in love with making those. This is my third wall hanging project with clay.
Monstera deliciosa is one of my favorite plants I wish to own soon. Till then this Deliciosa wall hanging will fill the void.
Getting Started
- Any Clay - I have used fevicyrl mould it air dry clay in my project.
- Acrylic paints and brushes
- Yarn or thick thread
- Rolling pin or bottle
- Talcum powder
How to Steps
- Blend both the resin (grey) and (white) part completely till you get a nice smooth and uniform texture.
- Cut a template of deliciosa leaf in a paper or a cardboard. You could use a template from the internet or do a freehand sketching like mine.
- Roll the clay into a flat surface with the rolling or bottle.
- Using the template cut the leaves. I made 2 leaves and 7 beads. Use talcum to avoid the clay sticking to your surface and hands.
- Allow your clay to air dry. Once half-dried detail veins of your leaf using a sharp object.
- I have base painted my clay pieces with acrylic white. Base painting can give good results to your project. Though this is completely optional.
- Add a hole to the samples as you can loop through with a thread. You could use a needle or an empty pen refill to make desired holes. Make the holes according to the thickness of your thread.
- Paint your clay pieces with the desired color. Here I have used Shades of green Blue, Lime Yellow, White, Red, and Orange.
Final Look
- Its time to put everything into place! Layout everything into desired places.
