Polymer Clay Cupcake Box

Even though you bake it like you would a real cupcake, you probably shouldn't try to eat it but this little treat. This cupcake box is an adorable way to store a few small treasures. I got the idea to make a container shaped like a cupcake when I saw a larger scale one at a paint your own pottery place and I knew I had to make my own version. The cupcake box I show you how to make here is small but if you have more clay you can follow the same steps but with a full-size cupcake liner and a larger dome support to get a more traditional size cupcake. 

Step 1 Ingredients

The "ingredients":
-silicone cupcake liner (mine was mini size)
-glob of clay for cupcake base (I chose bright green)
-glob of clay for cupcake top/frosting (I chose light pink)
-mini globs of clay in various colors for sprinkles and a cherry
-mold/support for cupcake frosting (a tablespoon measuring spoon fit perfect over the silicone liner) that is oven safe up to curing temp.
-a bowl of water
-toothpicks
-a knife or scissors
-any other favorite clay working tools
