Description

I love written messages but sometimes I like to be different and add some colors and dimension to my messages. These word clay magnets are very easy to make. =)

Instructions

1. 

   Roll the clay out on to the clear plastic sheet to about 3mm in thickness.

2. 

   Using the magnet tape as a guide, cut out strips of clay with the sharp cutter.

3. 

   Stamp as many words onto the clay strips as you like, cutting them out as you go along.

4. Arrange the words into a baking tray and bake the clay in the oven as per instructions on the Sculpey packaging - 130 degree Celsius or 275 degree Fahrenheit for about 15 minutes. My oven is a bit hot and so I baked mine for about 12 minutes.

5. 

   After the clay has cooled and hardened, attached the magnet tape to the back. (Optional) For extra security, I put 2 tiny drops of superglue at each end of the tape to ensure that the magnet sticks to the clay super well.
