-
Step 1
Take white clay and roll into a ball.
-
Step 2
Flatten the ball on two sides and onto the bottom just enough to look like onigiri without flattening it entirely.
-
Step 3
Use a small amount of black clay to make a rectangle then attach to the top portion of the onigiri, which should have a slightly curved pointed appearance.
-
Step 4
Take a small pointed object like the end of a head pin or eye pin and poke light holes on the surface all over the white portion of clay to give the appearance of texture.
-
Step 5
This step may be skipped if you do not want a heart. Use a small amount of pink clay to make two small hearts. Put one on both sides of the onigiri where the "cheek" to the face will be.
-
Step 6
My sculpey needed to be baked at 275 degrees for 15 minutes, make sure your directions are the same before baking!
-
Step 7
Once baked and cooled, make two eyes and a mouth with black paint. Use white paint to make a small reflection speck in each eye and pink paint to make the blush on either side of the face.
