  1. 1
    Lay out wax paper so the clay won't stick to your desk or work surface. Roll out your polumer clay into along log and divide into four. Roll out each one and flatten.
  2. Step 22
    Pinch each end like pictured, fold and then pinch both sides together. Make two of those and then pinch them together like so... Repeat again. This will give you the two sides of your bow. Whew, that's a lot of pinching. Be careful not to ruin the folds!
  3. Step 33
    Next take a small bit of clay, roll it out and flatten it like in the first picture. Wrap it around the middle of your bow, cut the excess and flatten it a bit. And that's it - you have your bow.
  4. Step 44
    To make holes,put a pencil or any barrel shaped object inside - we'll use that to hold the shape. Poke out your circle with a pin, carefully widening it until you've reached the desired size. Bake according to the clay package's instructions.
  5. Step 55
    Add your jump rings like so.
  6. Step 66
    Assemble your chain and attach it to your charm. That's it! You can also make really tiny ones and make them as earrings.
