I was craving a bit of spring. I wanted something colorful that I could take with me. What better than earrings? What better than fruit?

You Will Need (4 things)
- 2 Colors Sculpey
- 2 Earring Studs
- Nail Polish
- Heavy Duty Glue
Steps (17 steps, 30 minutes)
-
1
Gather your sculpey/fimo/etc. I will be using black and white for this how-to because it is easier to see what I am doing.
-
2
Knead your sculpey/fimo/etc.
-
3
Now knead the other color.
-
4
Roll 2 very small balls.
-
5
Now flatten it. Not too flat, though. About the thickness in the picture.
-
6
You should now have 2 shapes like this (picture).
-
7
Change colors. Make a tiny triangle or leaf shape.
-
8
Attach it to the top of your circle as shown.
-
9
Make another tiny triangle/leaf shape. Attach it to one side of the center leaf, as shown.

Make another tiny triangle/leaf shape. Attach it to one side of the center leaf, as shown.

Also, make a teeny tiny ball with your leaf color and squish it a bit on top. Repeat steps 7 – 12 on your 2nd circle. Bake as per the instructions on your package.
-
12
Grab your glue.
-
13
Glue the studs to your strawberries.
-
14
Grab something with a tiny tip. I used a safety pin, but I am sure a toothpick or something small like it would work too.
-
15
Grab your nail polish.
-
16
Dip the tiny tipped object into your nail polish and make tiny ‘seed’ dots on your strawberry.

Let everything dry and you’re done!
