Stamped Disc Pendant

Materials
  • Brayer or Pasta Machine
  • Clay in your color choice
  • Rubberstamp, Texture plate, Embossed Paper, Etc
  • Powdered embellishments (optional)
  • Cookie cutter or craft blade
  • Eye Pin
  • Wire Cutters
  • Super glue or epoxy
Instructions
  • Condition and roll the clay to desired thickness. I like a sheet about 1.4 inch. Gently roll your clay over the paper, stamp with your stamp, or press onto texture plate. You may need a bit of release agent to keep the clay from sticking. You can use mica powders, glitter or eye shadows to enhance the effect and act a release agent.

 
  • Remove the clay sheet from the surface, and cut as desired. I used a circle cookie cutter, but you can free hand it to. Let the clay rest a bit to make avoid distorting the piece when you insert the wire. Trip the eye pin so it will go to about the middle of your pendant. Gently push the wire into the pendant, making a hole. Remove the wire. Bake per your clays instructions. Sand and Finish as desired. After the piece is finished, put a dab of glue or epoxy on the eye pin and insert into the hole. Let dry fully before wear.
