Hello! A few days ago I posted about making polymer clay lithops to give away as a prank to my coworkers. https://www.reddit.com/r/Lithops/s/nFb6AmZ63Q
The plan is to offer these up for free in the break room and wait and see how long it takes for my coworkers to realize they’re fake. Hoping they give them lots of light and attention until then lol.
Finally finished making, baking, and potting them. I think I made about 200 or so. Cost was $20 in clay, $6 for a secondhand toaster oven to bake them and about 4-6 hours of time spent sculpting. Now they will sit hidden on a very high shelf in my office until 4/1.

I legit thought those where real til I read the caption
I would totally purchase some of your fakes!
I want one!!
Are you hiring for a day? Those are awesome!😁
This is great. Such a fantastic idea. Can’t wait for the update!
Good Job! I can see fingerprint lines in a few. 🙂
I’d love to buy a fake pot of these from you. They’re so nice looking!
Incredible.
Some of these are really realistic… Love them.
I want some 🤣
🤣😂 cruel and unusual punishment 🤣😂😅
Hello! Sorry, I have no plans to sell these, but I’d be happy to post a tutorial if anybody wants to try making them. You just need clay, some super basic tools, and a way to bake them (I used a toaster oven). They are very easy and quick to make. You could make a dozen in about 20 minutes plus bake time.
The substrate is a little too organic for these ones (joking)
I love how some are even in the splitting phase! 😂😂
These are awesome .
Honestly I think you’re on to something! IKEA could sell these with the rest of their fake plants! I’ve seen so many faux succulents… OH and yours are beautiful!
finally a plant i can’t kill yay!!
I would absolutely take one of these and be so proud of myself that I’d finally kept something alive 😂😂😂
These are beautiful! I already have some at work and they think they’re fake haha.
They look great. You did such a good job. If ever you did want to sell them, you have lots of interested people here
Huh. Lithops even I couldn’t kill.
Love it ❤️. What an artist you are.
Real or fake I’d be absolutely thrilled 🥰 these are excellent
I would totally take one and probably never figure it out. Lol
