You Will Need (1 thing)

  • Eyepin, Polymer Clay , Nail Polish, Necklace And Jump Ring.

Steps (4 steps, 35 minutes)

  1. 1

    Put any color polymer clay into any flexible mold you have (in this case I'm using a tiki ice cube mold from a local dollar store).

  2. 2

    Freeze the polymer clay (in the mold) for about 10 minutes. This helps the clay keep its form when you pop it out of the mold.

  3. 3

    Pop your charm out, stick your eyepin in it, bake it (according to instructions on the package), and then paint it (if you'd like) with nail polish or paint. I used a multi-pack of metallic nail polish I got from a local beauty store for a very low price. ($3 I think).

  4. 4

    Open your jump ring and attach the charm to the necklace. Ta-da! You might want to put a little super glue on the eyepin where it enters the clay for some extra durability. Your necklace is now perfect to wear out to Mardi Gras, a cookout, or with any other outfit you find appropriate.
