DIY Pendant Instructions

Condition your opal colored clay.
Press your conditioned clay into a silicone mold to the shape and size that you would like.
Take your already sheeted rose gold piece and gently tap your opal, shaped clay into the rose gold sheet.
Roll a small ball of the rose gold clay and push into place at the top of your opal pendant thus far.
Using your 5-in-1 clay tool cut around the outside of the opal leaving a small amount of room to give the illusion of a bezel.
Gently go around the edge and push the rose gold in to frame the opal clay.
Use a pointer tool to poke a hole through the top of your pendant.
Bake at 275 degrees for aboult 30 minutes.

Pro Tip: Use a glossy glaze to get a nice shiny finish if you would like.

There is a lot of expense that goes in to making this pendant. I wont have a use for materials like that often enough to offset the cost of investing in them all. This is a very pretty pendant, but I will have to find a less expensive beading project to work on for now.

Wow this pendant is so pretty! I never would have guessed it was made out of clay. I'm definitely a fan of rose gold jewelry!
