Making Glow in the Dark Teeth

I made a quick video on how to make teeth from Polymer clay. I like to do this because it gives you more creative options when making halloween props and makes for more expressive faces. This how-to uses translucent white Sculpey and Premo Glow in the Dark Clay, but the brands aren't important, as most of these brands all have these two colors.





My recommended baking time:
200° for 20-30 minutes (because these are so thin)

Manufacturer's recommended bake times:
Fimo: 230° for 30 minutes
Sculpey: 275° for 15 minutes
Premo: 275° for 30 minutes

Tools needed:
tooth pick or needle tool
knife or wooden knife tool
toothbrush

Other Glow in the Dark colors from Sculpey:
green
blue
orange
yellow


Flouresecent Colors from Premo:
Pink
Red
Green
Yellow

Examples of Polymer Clay teeth in my props:
