| STRIPES Necklace by Leila Bidler |
Materials:
Makin's Clay® White 60g, Black 60g
Makin's® Clay Roller
Any shape of clay cutter you like
Makin's Professional® Cutting Mat (big or small)
Makin's® Clay Basic Tool Set
Jump rings
Necklace base or cord
Instructions:
Divide your clay into half and roll out 2 logs of white and 2 logs of black of equal size.
Twist these logs together.
Roll this twisted log to thin it and fold it in half and roll again to create a marbled look.
Using your clay roller, flatten your marbled log, fold in half, roll out again.
Repeat the last step several times until you get the desired mix, roll out a flat sheet/veneer. Do not over mix as the colors will blend after a while.
Use whatever shape of clay cutter you desire to cut out shapes from this marbled/striped veneer.
Use your Basic Tool Set tools to adjust the shapes as desired and needed and the needle tool to poke holes in the forms - let dry completely.
Add jump rings after the shapes have completely dried and string onto a cord or necklace base to complete your summer necklace!
Tip: try different colors to make color variations and create many different necklaces!
