How to Make a Moonstone

1). Break off a piece of translucent polymer clay and warm it up by rolling it in your hands.
2). Brush on some mica powder. Moonstone typically has a blue iridescence, so blue powder is best, but other colors are acceptable.
3). Mix the mica powder into the clay by rolling it in your hands.
4). Warm up a small piece of white clay and mix it into the translucent clay. Do not blend completely. This will help create flaws and veins that emulate a natural stone.
5). Form the clay into the desired shape. For an easy cabochon, roll the clay into a ball in your hands, then gently flatten it against a flat surface.
6). Brush on more mica powder for extra shine, if desired.
7). Coat the piece with liquid polymer clay.
8). Bake in an oven at the manufacturer's recommended time and temperature. Translucent clay is often prone to burning, so monitor your piece closely during the baking process.
9). Coat the clay with transparent glaze, if desired. Wait for the clay to cool before adding any glazes.
