I decided to test whether I can make some interesting pendants for my friends.
I rolled the clay to be very, very thin and then used some stamps on it. I cut out the stamps with a very sharp piercing needle and a mini knife. I also cut out a different shapes that I could think of like a heart, or a stick. The clay stayed very soft because I was spraying water on it constantly.
After the first baking, the clay looked like this. I had to color it with special watercolor, or with glaze. I colored most of my pendants with light blue, green, blue, and pink color. And, I put them in the glaze as well.
Here the pendants are ready for their second baking. The glazed pendants look gray and white mostly but after baking their real color will show up nicely.
This is the result. Some pieces are brown though. I think the combination of glaze, watercolor, and color of the clay changes the resulting color of the pendant.
Therefore I can recommend to use only white clay and sometimes only clear glaze. I think I will remember this in the future. But I like all of my pendants because they were fun to make.
