Polymer Clay Tutorial – Huarache Sandals

A quick visual tutorial of huarache sandals I made for a sculpt. I think this is pretty self explanatory; if you have trouble following, let me know….begin with baked feet

Foot size sandal — The foot; the sandal; the size

cut strips and weave — cut thin strips and weave

trim strips — Trim Front Strips and tuck under

back strips weaved with front — weave remaining front side strips with back strips

all s trips woven — all strips woven, trimmed and, tucked under

sandal soles — sandal sole-brown layer under foot,black sole on bottom

and for extra added pizzazz, I imprinted the soles with tread

sandal sole relflection — mirror reflection of sandal tread

And here is the finished sculpt:

mexican dude with serape-sculpture — Mexican figurine with serape

I much prefer making bare/sandal feet over shoes…how about you? Hope you enjoyed seeing how these were made. See ya tomorrow where I’ll show off the work on my easel!
