Lady Gaga Inspired Ring!
I was inspired by Lady Gaga's rose ring for this one. I hope you guys like it and if it isn't too clear you are more than welcome to ask me questions!
**********UPDATE**********
I added something I forgot instep 6!!! :3 Nothing huge. Just a suggestion on what to put on the ring! ^^
I will put MATERIALS NEEDED HERE! I cannot put them in the "You Will Need Box at the moment.
It's being difficult (:
Polymer Clay
Carving Tools
A Tube With The Same Circumference As Your Finger
Oven
Paint (optional)
Glaze (optional)
♥ Happy Crafting! ♥

You Will Need
-
Step 1First, get your clay and roll it into a ball.
-
Step 2Then take your little tube to cut a hole out of the clay. I used the cap to one of my chap sticks for this part ^^ Just find what ever is around that's the size of your finger.
-
Step 3Take it out and it should look round like this! Make sure it fits your finger! (:
Now for the next part I put the little round cap back in the circle so it won't lose it's shape.
-
Step 4Next, take a carving tool of some kind (I just used a little knife!) and start cutting and moving the clay to form the petals of your rose. This part can be a little tricky so have patience!
-
Step 5Just keep shaping the clay...
-
Step 6Until you have something like this! (:
Oh! And if you would like to, instead of writing "Lady Gaga" and "Alejandro" on each side like the real ring, you can carve your name on one side, and a loved one's name on the other side. Just like the real ring only personalized.
I put "Kyko" & "Birdy" on mine ^-^

Step 7
Once you have the rose how you want it, bake it in the oven accordingly.
(For mine I put it in for about 20 minutes at 275°F. You want to leave it in long enough to were it's hard and not soft or rubbery, if it's still kind of soft after cooling, you may want to bake it a little longer!)
When it's all done take it out (CAREFUL! it will be hot!)
-
Step 8When it's all done take it out (CAREFUL! it will be hot!) and let it cool for a moment. After mine was done baking, I took some burgundy colored nail polish and painted it. It was too pinkish before for my taste!
-
Step 9And there you go! A pretty little rose ring! (:
You have any tips that you could pass off to me that are not in the tutorial?
And you have mad carving skillssss. *thumbs up*
