I like this tutorial because you don't need fancy charm accessories to string them. just wire, simple wire <3
Well done, I may do this sometime.

I have a question though I've been looking into buying a glaze for my painted charms and I've heard the sculpey glaze can mess with the colors of your paints have you ever had a problem like that? and does have you ever had problems with your glaze chipping? Thanks ^^

aww that's so cute! What kind of paint did you use though?

I personally use acrylic paint, I think it's the only paint you can use for clay. Don't know for sure, I'm still a beginner.

May i ask you how to pervent your clay from cracking in the oven!?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
mm i just try not to put it in for too long. and i set the heat slightly lower than the instructions say.
the best way is to put a piece in to test how high u need ur temperature and how long u need it in there for it to be strong without cracking, i think

Lucky that non of your charms fall out of its pins. Even after I glue mine, it still comes out, so now I tend to make a fold at the end before pushing it in. But I was curious to know what type of polymer you're using, like the brand? It looks like Sculpey Light to me.

Hi,
Hi, yeah i am using Sculpey for mine.
I actually started bending a few zigzags in my pins before i pushed them in and they seem to hold very well

oh. thanks, did you use polymer clay? coz i used ceramic. Some of my works were destroyed because it was to thin. Is polymer clay more durable?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
aw no that's terrible.
yeah it is polymer clay. polymer clay is durable as long as u don't make it into sheets or thin long pieces.

Oh wow! This is amazing!
They turned out very cute (: .
But I'm just curious, when you apply the Sculpey Gloss, did you brush it on there or did you dip the charm in the gloss?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
sorry the LONG awaited reply... i have been out of action on DA for a long time lolz.
if ur still interested, i brush it on because dipping it gets a lot of drips and makes the bottom uneven.

Oh it's alright! Thanks for taking your time to reply though!
