Hi! Welcome to The Little Craft House!
In this tutorial I show you how to use Water Tranfer Decals on Polymer Clay!
They are a super simple way to add detail - especially if you are like me and lack in the skill of drawing department!
In this tutorial we cover from start to finish including sealing your components.
All items used in this tutorial are available through our shop and website.
Thanks for joining me and hope you enjoy!

I love to see the way you work! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!😊
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching!
wow! nice tutorial. beautiful arts! great sharing technique
Thanks so much.
Thank you so much!...could you also use a varnish (I use a polyutherane varnish sometimes) on the transfers? Or must it be a glaze sealer? Thank you
Maybe! I have found some transfers bleed colour and react to some of the sealants i've used. So it's always best to keep a bit of scrap and check on that first. Nothing worse than getting to the sealing stage and the colours bleed!
When you bake them again with the transfer, do you use the same temperature as before when baking the clay? These are beautiful! Thank you for sharing💕🧜♀️
The first few times I did them- I baked at the same temp- but recently realised the instructions actually say to bake at 110deg C.
@@TheLittleCraftHouse thank you
@@TheLittleCraftHouse for how long ?
@@TheLittleCraftHouse wondering the same thing, for how long the second time with the transferred design? Thanks!
I thought she indicated about 15 min. After applying the paper transfer.
Good evening please tell me what is the name of the square tool that enables you to level the clay evenly?
Have you ever made your own transfer slides? If so, what type of paper would you recommend for inkjet printer? I want to try to make my own designs.
Hi there! I haven’t made my own - so I can’t advise sorry
Did your paper say you have to spay it with acrylic adhesive before soaking it in water?
No, these ones don’t say to do that. Just to pop them straight in the water. I guess instructions may vary depending on how they are made.
Could you put them on before baking and then bake with the transfer on?
The manufacturer recommends not to- as the transfer wouldn’t be able to withstand the heat for the full length of the clay cook time.
What kind of oven are you using to bake
Check out this FAQ - I talk about my oven here - kzhead.info/sun/g96qqdqEpH6YpYk/bejne.html
hello, I live in France. Where can I buy the tattoos? thank you very much and good day
I wonder if this is what they use on those hyperrealistic clay cracking videos. The ones where they make something out of soft clay, cover it with nail polish and crack it for a satisfying video.
Did you use printed card stock?
No, its not cardstock- the image has been printed onto a specific type of paper as far as I’m aware. I didn’t make the transfers.
what to lubricate the finished earrings with?
At 8:54 on the tutorial I talk about the varnishes :)
@@TheLittleCraftHouse ok, but i dont understand english well
What type of oven are you using
This tutorial gives all the details for my oven! kzhead.info/sun/g96qqdqEpH6YpYk/bejne.html
So you drill holes after second bake?
Yes- I drill them at the very end- after I sealed.
Use your cutter as template
I do sometimes- but I don’t always use a cutter! I also find it harder to clean any pencil marks off the cutter than the Polymer blank.
