  Step 1

  Knead and roll the clay on the clear transparency sheet to about 5mm thick. Use the cookie cutter to cut out a heart shape. Use the drinking straw to pierce 2 holes about 5mm away from the edge and use the cutter to cut from the holes to the edge (see picture). Gently remove the excess clay.

  Step 2

  Use the alphabet stamps to stamp in your name or words to make your holder more interesting. This step is optional.

  Step 3

  Gently lift the clay off the transparency sheet and place it at a safe place for overnight drying. Let the clay dry for about 24 hours or until it becomes dry and hard. Once the clay is dry and hard, use a piece of sand paper to smooth out the rough edges, if any.

  Step 4

  Paint the holder in any colour you like with the acrylic paint. I have chosen to paint one in pink and gold and the other in blue and silver. I used a piece of tape to help me keep the line between the colours neat.

Great idea! How durable is the clay?

Hi! Except for a couple of small chips along the side due to wear and tear, the holder is still intact. Perhaps you can thicken the clay to make it more durable. Good luck! =)
