How do I put together clay beads? I mean I see them everywhere... Here is one way to make Clay Beads...

Difficulty: Moderate
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • FIMO clay
  • oven
  • sharp piercing tool
  • your choice of fun!
  1. Step 1

    While working with Clay, you need to know what kind of clay you will be using and in our case, we will be using coloured FIMO clay... FIMO is great when making jewlery because it never looses its' colour in the drying and cooking processes....

  2. Step 2

    To make round beads simply roll little bits of clay into a round ball and then puncture a whole thru the center of the clay... Let dry and then cook...

  3. Step 3

    To make rectangular round beaded shapes simply roll the clay back and forth with the palms of your hand and then puncture thru the shape you have made, let dry and then cook...

  4. Step 4

    A fun accent you can make with your coloured beads is to twist and turn the colours into each other creating a unique look and they will remain completely original, no two are exactly alike!

Tips & Warnings
  • use colours for the Holidays including Red and Green for Christmas!
