A Silk Clay Polar Bear
#v11820
These polar bears are made from Silk Clay which is modelled around polystyrene balls which are then fixed together. The hats are cut from rolled out Silk Clay (rolled out flat 10 min. prior to use on a plastic pocket). Use the same plastic pocket for standing the polar bears on when drying.
