Divide your clay evenly into 8.
Break the clay into 8 balls.
Divide each ball into two lumps and find something cylindrical around the same size as your rolled up napkins. A small tub of mod podge was perfect for my ones.
Press one of the clay balls flat and place the cylinder through the middle creating a hole. Remove the cylinder and smooth the hooped clay shape with your fingers.
Divide the second lump into four smaller lumps and roll two out into long sausages and shape the other two into ears.
Place the long sausage shape around the outline of the ear.
Attach the ears to the napkin ring and smooth flat at the back.
Place some crystals in the middle of the ears at the front and smooth out the shape.
Continue making the rest of your napkin rings, alternating between your favourite animals.
Leave to dry for at least a day.
Paint the rings with silver paint, being careful not to paint the gems.
Leave them to dry and they're all ready for your next dinner party!
