Easy Color Block Beads

Materials
  • Bead rolling tool (optional)
  • 2 or more colors of conditioned polymer clay (I used 3)
  • Bead baking set up of your choice.
Instructions
  • Cut each color into small bits, which is dependent on the size bead you are making. I used rice grain size balls for my 7mm beads. For softer color edges, roll the bits into a ball. For more defined edges, leave with sharp lines.
 
  • Gently press a few of each color ball together, in your bead roller, in your measuring device, or eyeball it, if your good at that)
 
  • Roll each bead by hand, or use a bead roller. The more you roll the bead, the less defined the color differences will be. I rolled mine just a bit to bond the individual color balls together but keep the integrity of each color.
 
  • Bake bead using your preferred method. Finish as desired.
