Heat Gun Polymer Clay Crackle

Welcome to Day five of a 30 Day Cracklathon with polymer clay. I'll be creating a different crackle veneer every day for a whole month.

In day five of the polymer clay cracklathon I'll show you how to create a polymer clay crackle with a heatgun. This is one of the more challenging of the crackle techniques as it only takes a second to over cure the clay. I demonstrate this in the tutorial.

The key to a great crackle is a heatgun (a hair dryer won't do), 5 seconds of warm up time for the heatgun before letting it near the clay, and most of all practice. Use some old leftover clay to practice.


You will need the following supplies:

  • Polymer Clay of any color
  • Heat Gun
