Beads

This was the first time I had ever made beads, so I had lots of experimenting to do before I

came up with these.

Two more firsts, using polymer clay and using my melt pot! Not for melting Utee , but for 'cooking' the clay.It worked really well.

I used black and silver clay rolled together a, then cut into a suitable size and rolled onto a stamp. for a bit of texture. Then I randomly added some Perfect Pearls.

Shrink Plastic beads. Translucent shrink plastic, cut into a square with the corners rounded. I coloured the backs with glimmer chalks, and when still warm quickly rounded them.
