It wouldn't let me add stuff in the 'you will need' section; so I'll put that here. You will need: Sculpey Clay (one of the little block things should be fine) a clay cutting knife (or any knife without a serrated blade) some wire and wire cutters I hope my tutorial is easy to understand!

Description

It wouldn't let me add stuff in the 'you will need' section; so I'll put that here. You will need: Sculpey Clay (one of the little block things should be fine) a clay cutting knife (or any knife without a serrated blade) some wire and wire cutters I hope my tutorial is easy to understand!

Instructions

  1. Take a small glob of your clay and roll it into a ball.

  2. Hack off some of the parts of the ball with your knife. You should have an odd looking ball with flat sides and angled edges.

  3. Roll your glob of clay in your hands (like you were trying to roll it back into a ball) until the edges are smoothed out and not as pointy.

  4. Cut a piece of wire that is as big around as you want the hole of your bead to be. Do not remove the wire until you are done baking your beads.

  5. Use the previous steps to make as many rock beads as you want, then; bake your beads in an oven.
