How to use mylar metal foils for grunge effects on polymer clay
In this video you'll see how to apply mylar backed metallic foils to make veneers. Special effects can be achieved such as fine crackle and aged metal.
For the earrings shown, I used the Grunge Foils color light gold, oxidized copper, and rose gold. I cut out the medium and small Moon cutter shapes and started stacking! The tiny triangle is for the Mini Triangle plunger set.

An artist friend gave me some of these foils. Now I know how to use them. Thank you for sharing this technique.
These are wonderful! What a great technique! Thanks!💗
Hi Kira, I just watched the Grunge Foil Tutorial and ordered a set as I can’t wait to use them!! I love the effects you created with them and the earrings. My question is, “will there be other colors in the Grunge Range of foils in the near future?” Cheers, Vera.
I love the shimmer and shine the foil sheets add to the earrings ! And especially that they bake right on for the finished look :-)
Love the colors these come in.
