Fimo 00 (Transparent), Fimo 0 (White) Fimo 15 (Golden Yellow), Pastel Chalks - 3 shades of brown Clear box (for shaking colors) Razor blade, Ruler
|
|
|
|
Mix 00 Transparent with a minute amount of 0 White and 15 Golden Yellow. Mix well.
|
|
|
|
Roll out a 'snake' approximately 1/4" and cut into 1/4" segments.
|
|
|
|
Roll each segment into an oval or egg shape…these need not be perfect.
|
|
|
|
Place 2/3 of the egg shapes into the clear box…leaving aside 1/3.
|
|
|
|
Scrape 3 shades of chalk on to paper.
|
|
|
|
Place the scraped chalk into the clear container and shake well.
|
|
|
|
It's recommended that you use a clear box so that you can determine if you've shaken it enough, or if you need to add more chalk.

|
In order to 'peel' the potato, hold the razor blade steady and move the potato. You have better control this way.
|
|
|
|
Note that you will have a bit of the white of the potato showing on the opposite side, just as you would in real life.
|
|
|
|
Place the potatoes on parchment paper including the uncoloured potatoes and any peelings. Put in oven 260 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 minutes.
A suggestion for a scene is to have a cutting board near a sink, or on the counter or table with potatoes in the process of being peeled, and some in the pot already peeled. Also, potatoes can be placed around a roast, or on a dinner plate or bowl. There are many uses …including placing the peels on newspaper, getting ready to wrap them for the garbage, or loosely in a pot, ready for the compost pile. You are limited only by your imagination! Enjoy!
