I love this project SO much, so i just had to share this idea with you guys! The video I watched for this is on YouTube and it's by JoannesMinis channel. What I made here is a platter of nachos, with guacamole, and salsa. To get this project right, you will have to have A LOT of patience!
MATERIALS
1. Yellow, white, translucent,granite, and tan clay (I didn't use tan because I do not have any at the moment, but I suggest using it)
2. Sand (I got my sand directly from the beach and it turned out fine)
3. Clay roller, and blade
4. Light green,TLS, and cream yellow oil pastels.
5. Cut up pieces of translucent/red clay, and pieces of green clay.
TUTORIAL
The first step is to make the clay mixture for the chips. You have to kind of mess around by mixing a little yellow, white, and the other colors mentioned above, until you are satisfied with the color of your chip (it helps to observe an actual chip).
Next, add enough sand so that you see a lot in every section of the clay (but not too much, or else it will fall apart when you roll it out). Now, get any long round tool and roll the tortilla to a really thin layer!(DO NOT PUT IT THROUGH YOUR PASTA MACHINE!)
Then, get a 1/2 in. circle cutter and make as many as you think you'll use. Next, get a blade and cut then into 8 sections. (And if you didn't get the right color, just brush on some yellow pastels ;)
Now, arrange them any way you want on a miniature plate. Now, to make the guacamole and salsa! Get the TLS and mix in the green and cream pastels. Add in your pieces of green and red clay to make the "avocado, and tomatoes". Next, get some granite clay and shape it into a bowl. To make the salsa, get TLS and add a little bit of red acrylic paint, and some red pieces of clay.Create a mini granite bowl for that and you have your dips!!
Before baking, I added some super fine glitter over the chips for salt, and a mix of TLS and orange oil pastels for cheese! Hope you like this project as much as I did!! (I got the platter from Hobby Lobby).
