Today, such souvenir-souvenirs as charming households or decorative shavings, which are able to sweep away all negativity, are popular.

New Year's souvenirs, self-defense
On the birth of the infant Christ notified the shepherdsa trumpeting angel. It is he who symbolizes a bright holiday. Today we will produce an angel from polymer clay, it is with his wings that he will close your family from troubles and tribulations. In addition, this souvenir-amulet looks very nice and decorates the festive interior.
We need:
polymer clay Fimo: white, lilac, beige, orange, purple
toothpicks
sparkles
rolling pin
special lacquer
The main color of crafts in 2015 will be white, so this material should be abundant.
It is also necessary to prepare a glass board, a knife and a stack. If you want your New Year's souvenir to bring good luck, do it in a good mood and with good intentions.
How to make a souvenir yourself
Let's get to work. Cut a large enough piece of white clay, mnem it in my hands and roll a large ball. It must be gently flattened with fingers, and then rolled into a thin layer. Make sure that the thickness is the same everywhere and is 2 mm.
Now twist the cone from the resulting cake, gently align it with your fingers, straighten the "skirt". Remember that the figure must stand firmly on the surface.
That it would be convenient for us to work in the future, andThe resulting base was not deformed, nabate cone with napkins. At the bottom of the skirt we cover abundantly with beads and rhinestones. From beige mastic roll a large ball, draw a face with the help of a stack and fix the head on the trunk with a toothpick.
Now the angel needs festive clothes. We take a small piece of lilac polymer, roll it into a thin layer and cut out a circle. To make it smooth, circle the bottom of the glass with a knife. Use the stack to create an openwork cut. It will be a collar, so put it on the shoulders of an angel.
Angel will need his hands. Take a bulk piece of clay and roll out a long bundle with a diameter of 0.5 cm. Pinch off 2 small pieces of beige clay, form "droplets" - palms. Now use the pencil to make holes at the ends of the tube, insert the parts there. Ready hands can be attached to the body. Since the detail is quite heavy, it is better to put it on the half of the toothpick.
The angel-amulet bears love, it will besymbolize the heart, which we will make of purple mastic. We roll the layer 2 mm thick, apply a stencil on it and circle it with a knife. With the help of a toothpick, we create a pattern along the contour. Put the heart in your hands.
From orange material we will make hair for our souvenir. Roll out a thin layer, cut out a horseshoe shaped piece and lay it on the head of an angel.
The angel must have a white wreath. We roll miniature beads and form a diadem, crown it with a head.
Additional souvenir decorations should beeyes-rhinestones, a brilliant "diamond" on the collar and, of course, wings. We cut them out of white clay by stencil, we make a cut along the edge and fix it from behind with the same wooden pin as our hands.
There are 2 final stages: baking and coating with a special varnish. The temperature and time of heat treatment are indicated on the packaging of polymer clay.
Now you know how to make a New Year's souvenir-amulet with your own hands, let our angel bring you luck.
