the sparkles in some of the beads are from "Fimo Effect" clay, the rest of it is made from "Fimo Soft."

because i'm a thrifty crafter, i don't use a pottery oven or a special device for cooking them.. i use a cheap-o aluminum pan (you can get these anywhere for really cheap) and for the skewers i use old wire hangers (easy to cut with household wire clippers) and just poke holes through the sides of the pan (so they can be elevated and not get flattened)

the beads in the first picture are 1"-ish

it doesn't really take an hour to COOK these, i added extra time for clay-softening.

PLEASE follow the baking instructions that are on your package of clay!!

the rosebud necklace broke on one of the leaves because i rolled my clay too thin =(

please feel free to comment! <333
