DIY Boho Picture Frames With Sculpey Premo

Have you heard that there are three new Sculpey colors to get crafty with?! Lavender, light pink, and terra cotta have recently been added to the Sculpey Premo collection, and let me just say, the creative opportunities are endless.

Clay

Immediately, these colors gave me some serious boho vibes (I’m looking at you, terra cotta) so I decided to make some small handmade picture frames with them. If you’ve never worked with Sculpey Premo before, this clay is very flexible, strong, and it won’t dry until you bake it! It’s also non-toxic and really great for blending and adding fine details to one of a kind pieces.

Boho

You can add a hanger to the back of these picture frames or simply prop them up against a wall - it’s up to you! I’m honestly so thrilled with how these turned out. I love the colors and it was so satisfying seeing this project through from start to finish.


These frames make the perfect DIY addition to your home decor or the sweetest handmade gifts. To learn how to make your own boho inspired picture frames with Sculpey Premo, keep on reading!
