Why this course?
When I first discovered polymer clay, I was so excited by all the ideas in my head! The problem was I didn’t know where to start.
How do I join pieces together? How do I make sure it doesn’t break? How do I make the face look cute? How do I make it glossy? Why is there so much dust?!
Maybe you feel the same. You want to make your own charms, but you are not sure about the right way to begin.
I built this course to help you feel confident about crafting with polymer clay. Together, we will make durable pieces you can use everyday.
Inside the course
What you'll learn
This course shares everything that I have learned about polymer clay over the past 10 years, from both sculpting and teaching workshops - simplified for beginners.
It is carefully designed into 8 easily digestible chapters, with practical explanations.
Foundations
Set up like a maker
The exact tools and clay to buy (and what to skip), how to condition it, and how to set up a workspace that makes clay feel easy to work with from the first touch.
Your first creature
Build a little animal
You’ll learn how to shape a body from simple building blocks, how to make use of wire to make it more durable, and how to get that smooth and polished look.
The cute factor
Give it a face & personality
The part that sets Wild Apple pieces apart: eyes, expressions and tiny details that turn a blob into a character with real charm.
Create your second animal
Colour, texture & accessories
Blend gradients, add fur and soft texture, and sculpt tiny props (hats, food, little objects). This will be your second project ready!
Make it last
Turn it into a real charm
The step most people skip: baking properly, sealing matte or gloss, and fitting hardware so your charm survives real life in a real bag.
The big promise
Design your own creature
Turn any animal into a cute charm, plan it out, and build a piece from your own design, with me coaching you through it. Something nobody taught you to make.
Bonus chapter
Let's make a desk buddy together
One extra project, just for fun. Together we'll make a little desk buddy. A cute clay companion to sit by your screen and keep you company while you work. Let’s put everything you’ve learned into one more creature you’ll see every day.
Meet your teacher
Hi, I'm Apple!
The artist behind Wild Apple Studio
I am a clay artist and clay workshop tutor. I am self-taught and have picked up my skills over years of broken, tacky, and burnt pieces (you are not alone!). I make clay charms, figurines, trinket trays, and artisan keycaps, all from my little home studio.
I am so lucky enough to have had the opportunity to teach over 500+ students here in Hong Kong. This has honestly helped me understand a lot more about what beginners need, and how to make things easy to understand. A lot of my community on the internet have also reached out to ask if I teach online. So this is the course I have created for you!
I LOVE animals and have two gentle chihuahuas (Bailey and Brandy). They are always by my side while I work. They mean the world to me. I hope that this course with cute animal charms will bring the same joy to you like it does to me.
Thank you for being here. I can’t wait to see what you will make!
