This video tutorial explains how to take a laser-printed image and transfer it onto the surface of polymer clay.
I walk you through the whole process for making clay charms, including tips on what NOT to do!

Thanks for watching :)
P.S. The Mad Hatter image I used is from the original Alice in Wonderland book by Tenniel (it has recently been made copyright-free):

I am a beginner and I've seen people treat their clay like it's a baby. it's simple - get you some freezer paper burnish it on, done you have an image! Instant gratification. YOU are in charge of the clay. I found this out on my own, no one else has made a video about this. Freezer paper is found at the grocery store. And it works with an ink jet printer.
@MsHumanist1
@MsHumanist1 7 жыл бұрын
Some people use freezer paper(sorry you're not the first)- but find it doesn't provide as clear a transfer as other types. Regarding your comment about "treating clay like a baby"- I guess it depends on if you are going to be selling your creation or if it's just for fun. Professional clayrers tend to be more careful with finishing stages of the clay since it is going to be sold and there is an unwritten rule amongst them that you want your product to be as perfect as can be - sanded, polished if needed- with no "slapping" it at all.

Great tutorial- looks much easier than many of the other methods I've seen. I thought you could only use acetone with laser prints, so I'm glad to see water will also work. Thank you for showing the mishaps as well- it's good to learn from others' trials and errors. I'm wondering why you didn't remove the excess clay from around the charms before baking? It seems like a waste of all that clay, that could be used to make more charms.

Great tutorial, really clear and easy to follow. My question is I am new to polymer clay and wondered why you baked the charms still with the excess clay in place, rather than removing them and just baking the charms? Doesn't the excess stick back to the charm? Sorry if this is a really basic question but like I said I am new to all this. Thank you
@RokoleeDIY
@RokoleeDIY 7 жыл бұрын
Thank-you :) Actually, you're quite right; I should have removed the excess clay before baking to prevent wasting that clay. Not sure why I didn't really...I might have just been distracted by the videoing! The clay didn't stick back onto the clay, but I would recommend removing excess clay before baking.

Hi Rokolee! I’m new to your channel. Thanx so much for sharing your skills. Two questions. Is it possible to use alcohol on a color image? I want to try transferring a color image from a card sent to me onto the raw white clay. I don’t know if it will work but I want to try. Do you think it might help to dab alcohol instead of water on the clay and picture? Thanx

Unfortunately I haven't tried to use alcohol for this process, so I can't say for sure, but it's probably worth a try!

Thanks :) Hmm, that's odd because I just used regular printer paper in a laser printer, no special paper or anything like that. Did you do an economical/fast print? As that may mean less ink, but I doubt that is the problem. Or maybe you used too little or too much water, or didn't leave it until it completely dried? And you're using polymer clay? So hard to troubleshoot when I can't see your process, but maybe it's one of those things. Sorry I can't be more help!

This is so clever , really looks awesome to make! But I don't have a laser printer :( Does the printed image needs to be "fresh"ly printed? Or can I go to a store with laser printer to print my pictures?

Thank you :) I had to get a friend to print my images too as I also don't have a laser printer! So yes, they don't need to be super 'fresh' prints. Happy crafting!

If you have to put inks into your printer (rather than toner) you have an inkjet printer :)

Hi! You can try with colour, but I found results were patchy/faded, and not crisp like the black lines. Thanks for watching :)

Hi! It's regular white paper, nothing special, and you peel the paper off; don't rub it.

Instead of using straw to make top hole- these would look nice if you Macrame around the edge which would also give you something to make a hanging loop from!!

Hi! I find colour transferring a lot less reliable than with black to be honest, especially in larger areas of solid colour. Using an inkjet printer and a sheet of transparency works better with colour (which I have made a different video about). Hope that helps! Thanks for your comment :)

What type of printer is used And can I use a clear nail polish to seal it ?
@RokoleeDIY
@RokoleeDIY 6 жыл бұрын
A laser printer must be used for this technique to work. I wouldn't recommend nail polish to seal it, as although some people use it and it does work, after a while it tends to chip and turn yellow. Thanks for watching :)

Would it work fine if you painted over the image as if it were a guide. Using acrylics.
@RokoleeDIY
@RokoleeDIY 7 жыл бұрын
Absolutely you can...but you'll have to add a varnish/sealer/glaze over the top to protect the paint...otherwise it'll wear off pretty quickly :)

Hi I have tried your steps one by one but when i put water over the clay before putting the image it was like dotes So I put the image and wet it but it moved couple of times so i continued reviewing the tape again but it was failer the transfer was very bad. I used a laser printer and regular printing paper. I am not sure why it did not transfer. I will try again may be my printer paper is not good
@RokoleeDIY
@RokoleeDIY 3 жыл бұрын
Hmm I'm not sure without seeing...perhaps try putting a little water on with a brush and using that to spread it out a bit? Moving the transfer at all will blur the transfer unfortunately. I'm sorry it didn't work for you :(

Hi! I've tried a couple of colour images with mixed results; line art seems to work, but larger areas of solid colour may be a bit faded/mottled. At least one person has left a comment saying it works for coloured images though so it's worth a go! Maybe try it on scrap clay first though :)
