How to Make a Flower Out of Polymer Clay - Part 4: Flower With Stamen
If you love polymer clay DIYs or are a beginner and want to give it a try, then I have some inspiration for you with this flower clay sculpture tutorial. This is one of my beautiful polymer clay flower ideas that you can do yourself. Clay flower making is so fun, and you can choose your own color theme, too! Let’s get started!
Tools and materials:
- Blade
- Various colored clay
- Paper
1. Make the stamen
First, make thin rolls with the first color of your choice. Use your fingers to roll the clay and cut it into pieces as you go along.
Once you get to a thin roll, cut a few pieces with your blade.
2. Make the petals
Roll another color until it becomes a long thick roll as pictured.
Cut five equal pieces.
Roll each piece between your fingers to create a ball. Then, flatten it to create a thin flat circle.
Fold the bottom into pleats and squeeze the bottom folds together to form a petal. Repeat for all petal pieces.
3. Assemble the flower
Put all the thin red rolls together to make the inner part of the flower.
Next, attach the petals to the stamen.
Fold the outer part of the petal outward, too.
Turn the stem as you arrange the rest of the petals. This helps the petals stick together and elongates the stem, thus preparing it for a clean cut at the end.
4. Cut off the stem
Slide your blade under the flower to cut off the stem.
