I was thinking about chinese zodiac and I remembered last year was the year of the fire pig XD so voilà!!! XD I'm planning to do this year's earth rat too :3 Let me know if you make one ^^ I'd like to see :D

Instructions

  1. Small 10529

    Start with something like this. It's kind of a fat cylinder.

  2. Small 10602

    For the nose: 1.Roll a little ball 2.Flatten it with your fingers evenly 3.Put it on one side of the cylinder and apply gentle pressure.

  3. Small 10603

    For ears: 1.Roll two very tiny balls of clay 2.Give them the shape of little triangles by placing them between your right index finger and thumb and your left index finger. 3.Place them on top of your piggy's head.

  4. Small 10902

    Four little blocks of clay make your piggy's feet XD

  5. Small 10903

    For the tail: 1.Take some clay and roll it into a thin strip. It doesn't have to be too long. 2.Here's the tricky part...take your strip of clay and roll it into a...coil XD use a toothpick to help you :D 3.Place it on the other side of the cylinder.

  6. Small 10904

    Take your head pin and place it on the center of your piggy. I put it between it's legs, so the head didn't show.

  7. Small 10905

    For the last details use two little circles for eyes and two thin stripes for the nose. Bake and glaze :3

  8. Small 10906

    Using round nose pliers make a little loop with the headpin...et voilà!!! You have the cutest piggy charm ever!!! X3 You can use it for a cellstrap or a necklace!! Whatever takes your fancy :D
