While you can make miniature teacups and saucers freehand in polymer clay, it is easier to make matching sets using simple press molds. I used two part silicon mold putty to make a simple press mold for the dollhouse teacups and saucers shown in these instructions. The saucers are made the same way as the Miniature Polymer Clay Dessert Plates and are designed to match the opening dollhouse teapot.
If you don't want to use silicone mold putty, you may be able to shape your teacups using the inside of a glue bottle cap, or half beads, pressing the clay to the shape using the same technique used with the mold in these instructions.
