Description

First attempt on making beads out of fimo. . . . unfortunately i did wrong cooking times but have new cooking times to help

Instructions

1. I took 3 colours; blue purple and white. I broke off 1/3 of my small fimo packs of each colour using a craft knife

2. I rolled the blue colour using a rolling pin (wooden was difficult to roll with). I rolled each colours out but for each colour i make them slightly smaller than the blue. Lay them all on top of each other and roll one end to the other.

3. Using the craft knife cut your beads so u can see the swirls. Cut them to how ever length you want. Do this a few times.

4. Then using a sewing needle, pierce a hole in the top of the beads all the way through (must be big enough to link on a bracelet). Place on foil on a baking tray, heat on Gas mark 2 and for 20 mins. Voila

5. You can use the left over fimo to make a swirly round pendant :)
