STAEDTLER FIMO Leather Effect Modelling Clay is an oven-hardening modelling clay looks and even feels similar to leather after hardening and can be used for a wide range of projects including jewellery, accessories and home decoration.
Before Hardening
Achieve your preferred thickness by rolling it out. Tip: use the STAEDTLER FIMO Clay Machine to achieve an even surface
You can add embossing or patterns to the clay
You can vary the leather effect by compressing the clay more firmly to achieve a smoother leather effect. To achieve a rawer leather effect, after rolling it out, gently pull/stretch the clay out by hand.
FIMO clay is self-adhesive. FIMO pieces will stick together. Create different colours on front and back by laying a different colour onto another. You can strength the bond by pressing and smoothing the clay. Clay items applied after hardening will not stick permanently
Clay will shrink slightly after hardening so if you need a specific size, it is best to make it a slightly larger size and cut to shape after hardening
FIMO leather effect can be combined with FIMO soft clays however this will lessen the leather effect depending on how much you add to the mix
Create patterns and colour blends by combining multiple colours together. Kneading your colours together thoroughly will create a new solid colour
After Hardening
Leather effect is visible on both sides of clay
Pieces are flexible and bendable. If thin enough, FIMO leather effect is braidable, sewable and cuttable
