Well, it's been sitting in a glass jar for a while.
But I finally made something fun.
A bead necklace!
This is probably the most easy thing to make. Simply roll balls of clay and poke a hole through each with a tooth pick.
Next time I will definitely poke bigger holes. I intended to use ribbon instead of string, but the holes I made weren't big enough, so I had to string them and then tie ribbon to the ends.
It still turned out pretty cute.
What would you create with homemade clay?
