Polymer Clay Robot Head Stoneware Style

How to make a tiny robot head in light stoneware style with my favorite art media polymer clay. I think robots are awesome.

Condition clay and shape into robotic head, round or square, as you like - via your hands
Poke holes in clay for eyes - via wood tool
Place beads into holes - via your hands
Poke hole in clay to create mouth - pen top
Apply SMALL AMOUNT of BLUE powdered mica - via dry brush and rub in with fingers
Apply EVEN SMALLER AMOUNT of RED powdered mica - via dry brush and rub in with fingers
Bake clay as package instructs, usually 275 degrees for 15 minutes per size - this little guy only needs a few minutes
Let COOL
Apply VARNISH to seal mica to clay
Optional: super glue magnet to back
