Instructions:
Take a small amount of the color of your choice of clay. I chose red. Smooth it with your hands and then with the roller to create an uniform layer.
If you want you can pass these layers through the Ultimate Clay Machine™. I began on the first setting and moved up 1 setting at a time until reaching the third setting.
Take the layer and cut a square using the small square cutter. And set this piece aside for a while. If you want you can cut all the napkin rings that you want to make at this time. I made six from a package of 120g and I had some left overs to create little pieces for other embellishments.
To create the leafs , I used the maple cutter of the medium size and the brown clay. First I took a small amount of brown clay, smoothed it with my hands and then with the roller to create a uniform layer. I passed this layer through the Ultimate Clay Machine™ in the third setting and and then I created a design over the layer using an embossing folder.
I made six maple leafs from the layer using the medium cutter.
To assemble the rings I used Beacon™ 3-in-1 Advanced Craft Glue. I simply curved the opposite corners of the square a little, added the glue in each corner and secured with the maple leaf. Then to give a gold touch, I sprayed all the rings with Golden Orange Glimmer Mist from Tattered Angels. It dries very quick and gives the shiny touch that I wanted.
I let all the napkin rings dry for almost 24 hours before using them.
I hope my project inspires you. We have a lot of cutter designs and push molds that you can use for the season to create special decorations for your table and presents.
Thank you for stopping by and see you soon!
