There are three sizes of this calla lily leaf cutter available, 3 cm to 5 cm.
To create a 3D calla lily:
- Roll a tube of clay out to create the finger-like center piece (spadix) of the flower. Create a tapered end that will show in the middle of your flower.
- Embed a kinked/bent pin into the spadix so your calla lily will have a finding.
- Roll out a different color of clay a bit thinner than you typically would for making earrings. Firm clay works best for this so that the leaf is easy to handle without deforming it. Use the cutter to cut out the large leaf that makes up the majority of the lily (spathe).
- Wrap the cut-out shape around the center piece, overlapping the bottom parts of the leaf slightly. Gently shape the leaf, opening the flower until you like the look of it.
- Bake the calla lily flat on its back and you're finished!
What is the recommended thickness of clay for using these cutters?
What is the recommended thickness of clay for using these cutters?
All of our debossing cutters are designed for use with clay that is approximately 2.5 to 3 mm thick. While outline cutters can be used with various clay thicknesses, smaller or more detailed cutters are generally easier to use with thinner clay.
What is the thickness of the cutting blade on your cutters, and how does it work differently compared to flat blades?
What is the thickness of the cutting blade on your cutters, and how does it work differently compared to flat blades?
The cutting blade on our polymer clay cutters features a precision 0.1 mm thickness. What sets our cutters apart is their beveled cutting edge design. This unique feature allows the cutters to slice through the clay, pushing the excess material out and away, rather than simply flattening it onto your cutting surface. As a result, you achieve crisp, clean edges with minimal to no need for additional cleanup or sanding, making our cutters some of the sharpest and most efficient on the market.
