A while ago I uploaded some pictures of glass bead charms I'd made. I finally found the time to make a tutorial to show you how to make them too.

The supplies for making these items are very cheap. A bag of glass beads costs about £1 from my local supermarket, the other items are standard crafting things I usually have in the house most of the time anyway, but if you don't, the big bottle of glue cost about 75p from ASDA, the eyepins and magnets were about £2 for a packet, the magnets had about 20 small magnets in the pack, the eyepins had 50 in their packet. Fimo polymer clay costs about £3 a brick from Hobbycraft my local crafting shop, but I like to buy the multipack of 25 colours which costs about £29, they are half sized bricks, but you get a great variety of colours. The crafting knife pictured is not required, but it's what I use to cut my clay and it was a very cheap one from hobbycraft which cost about £1.50, I had previously another one which I lost which cost about £4 from Wilkinsons, but sometimes I use stanley knife blades as they are very good at cutting clay and they cost about £2 for a packet of 6 from wilkinsons.
