I found in my loft a pack of oven bake clay.
Thought what the heck, Im not going to use it for anything else, So ive been playing around with it to make my own beads.
Bear in mind i have NO tools at all, Other than my hands the plastic cutter that come with these clays and skewers.
First batch of very bright colours are in the oven now.... This could get interesting.

Even if there a load of rubish, Im only playing around so not going to be upset. Im having fun anyway. If there any good I could get into this, lol.... would be easyer I would imagin with the propper tools tho. But hay this clay was just liying around collecting dust, so might as well play with it.

Its taking me back to primary school playing with playdooh lol.

Well ive made a grand total of 70 beads tonight.... most of which arnt up to much, but may look better when made into jewellery. But the best bit was the fun i had making them... Shame i was limited with some horrible coloured clay. but hay ihave fun and played lol....

How tho do we glaze them? or do i leave them as they are,,... Will have to see what they look like in the morning and decide...

Will take photos tomorrow and share on here
