Description

I was craving a bit of spring. I wanted something colorful that I could take with me. What better than earrings? What better than fruit?

Instructions

  1. Small dsc 0635

    Gather your sculpey/fimo/etc. I will be using black and white for this how-to because it is easier to see what I am doing.

  2. Small dsc 0637

    Knead your sculpey/fimo/etc.

  3. Small dsc 0638

    Now knead the other color.

  4. Small dsc 0642

    Roll 2 very small balls.

  5. Small dsc 0643

    Now flatten it. Not too flat, though. About the thickness in the picture.

  6. Small dsc 0644

    You should now have 2 shapes like this (picture).

  7. Small dsc 0645

    Change colors. Make a tiny triangle or leaf shape.

  8. Small dsc 0647

    Attach it to the top of your circle as shown.

  9. Small dsc 0648

    Make another tiny triangle/leaf shape. Attach it to one side of the center leaf, as shown.

  10. Small dsc 0650

    Make another tiny triangle/leaf shape. Attach it to one side of the center leaf, as shown.

  11. Small dsc 0652

    Also, make a teeny tiny ball with your leaf color and squish it a bit on top. Repeat steps 7 – 12 on your 2nd circle. Bake as per the instructions on your package.

  12. Small dsc 0651

    Grab your glue.

  13. Small dsc 0653

    Glue the studs to your strawberries.

  14. Small dsc 0654

    Grab something with a tiny tip. I used a safety pin, but I am sure a toothpick or something small like it would work too.

  15. Small dsc 0655

    Grab your nail polish.

  16. Small dsc 0656

    Dip the tiny tipped object into your nail polish and make tiny ‘seed’ dots on your strawberry.

  17. Small dsc 0657

    Let everything dry and you’re done!
