Air Dry Clay Beads



Air Dry Clay Beads colored with embossing powders, acrylic paints and metallic wax rub ons.

Crayola Model Magic or Delight Air Dry Modeling Compound. Both are simple to use for bead making. You can use a lot of different finishes on them.

I rolled these around a wooden skewer and then rolled them over some stamps for texture.


Beads made from long triangular strips of paper torn from a catalog and wrapped around a skewer.
I did some using a layer of colored foils from candy wrappers too.
Some of them are coated with Glossy Accents for shine. Some are coated in clear embossing powder.
