Here I took leftover pink and brown clay and made some beads. I made round ones and flat ones. I used a small round cutter so all the beads are from the same amount of clay and rolled into the same size.

Below, you will notice that I did not roll all the cutouts. I left some flat.

Next I put the rolled ones on skewers and on a little baking rack.

Before baking I took 2 flat ones and put them together and add some eye screws to them so they bake in the flat bead. I then bake at 275 for 30 minutes.

Here you see the flat ones after they came out of the oven along with some round ones. I started gluing in the eye pins to the round beads. This will help me link everything together.

The last 2 pictures are some beads made the same way but with some purple scrap clay. I forgot to take picutes of the pink one but I did remember to take these two.
