Foolproof Inkjet Transfers to Polymer Clay

I have been making jewelry using inkjet transfers to polymer clay for a while now.  I really enjoy using this technique.   In fact, I just finished a batch of bird necklaces today:


I made a video a few months ago about how to do inkjet transfers.  At that time I was having a fair amount of success with the technique, but I would sometimes have transfers turn out all glitchy.  Since then, I have refined my technique, and I am now getting 100% success rates with my transfers.  I made a new video today to share my process.  I hope you find it helpful!

    My daughter loves birds. Can you tell me where you got your images. I'd love to make a collage for her.

    After trying several methods of transferring, I finally found this one that actually works! I like the smooth finish that is left.

    This is such a great tutorial and the BEST method I have seen in getting inkjet images onto polymer clay. I have bought so many gels, papers, etc. in order to do this and here it was the whole time…liquid clay…. I mean, I’ve seen liquid clay used before, but the results were nothing like yours. The difference being you have very specific steps in getting the process to work properly and they work perfectly! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.
