How we did it:
Materials List
- air dry clay
- pipe cleaners
- buttons
- paint
-
Gather your materials. Protect your workspace with newspaper or a paper bag.
-
Roll the clay into small balls or long tubes. Don't make them too big or they will be too heavy to wear!
-
Use a pipe cleaner to gently poke a hole through each clay shape.
-
Let the clay dry overnight--or until the beads are completely dry. In the meantime, you can paint your buttons! You can also paint your beads once they are dry.
-
When the beads and buttons are dry, string them onto a pipe cleaner. Twist the ends of the pipe cleaner together and wear your new creation!
