Silver Metal Clay Heart Beads
These silver metal clay heart-shaped components have holes in them, so technically, I think they can be referred as beads. They are basically the same as my Silver Metal Clay Heart Charms project, but with one little twist.
You’ll need:
*Low-fire silver metal clay (about a dime-sized piece)
15mm metal heart-shaped cutter
5mm round cutter
Olive oil
6 playing cards
Misc. metal clay hand tools such as a roller and work surface
Hot pot or butane torch
Jar of water
Metal tongs
Fine sand paper or emery board
Corsage pin
Bead reamer
Burnishing brush
*You can use either PMC3 or Art Clay 650 for this project. Other types of clay will work too, but more than likely the other clays (depending on what you use) will require you to use a kiln to fire them in.
