Marbled Clay & Tassel Necklace

Step 1

To create marble effect, first tear away small pieces of gold clay and slightly push them into white clay block.

Step 2

Set craft clay machine to 2.27mm thickness, roll clay through, and fold. Repeat until desired look is achieved, adding more swatches of gold clay if necessary.

Step 3

Cut two circles using 1” circle clay cutter.

Step 4

Roll gray granite clay into thin rod and cut two 2” pieces and one ¼” piece. Stack circles on top of each other.

Step 5

Wrap 2” gray pieces around bottom of circle and trim edges.

Step 6

Insert eye pin through layers as shown. Bake according to the clay’s packaging instructions and let cool. Tip: Use tip of eye pin to pierce hole through ¼” gray piece before baking, creating a bead for next step.

Step 7

Use round-nose pliers to loop end of eye pin. Make tassel using thread and feed top tails through ¼” gray bead and looped eye pin. Tie off and trim ends. Optional: Add 1” piece of rolled gold clay underneath gray pieces before baking (previous step). Attach jump ring to top of eye pin and then thread onto necklace chain to complete.
