Forming the Peach Shapes From a Roll of Polymer Clay

Lesley Shepherd

Use the pin to cut off a section of your blended clay roll which will form a small pea-sized peach. If you want accuracy for a 1:12 scale dollhouse or other miniature scale scene, measure the ball of clay against a scale rule. It should be equivalent to a real peach 3 – 4 inches across.

Insert the straight pin into the top of your peach and roll it around to make a slightly conical depression. Drawn the pin down the side of the peach to make the join found in every peach. The bottom of the peach isn’t usually completely round but is slightly pointed. You may need to look at photos of peaches or a real peach sample to get the shape correct. Peaches are not usually round balls.

Set your peaches on a tile or baking tray used only for polymer clay and bake in the oven according to the directions for your brand of polymer clay. Do not overbake!
