HOW TO:

Step 1: The back of Fimo blocks are segmented into strips. Mix half a block of White Fimo with half a strip of blue and roll out to approx 2mm thick. Roll out the rest of the Blue Fimo and Brilliant Blue Fimo to 2mm thick sheets on a flat surface.

Step 2: Cut a number of different sized circles out of all of the colours. Roll the  remaining Blue Fimo and Mint Fimo into 2mm thick sheets approx 5 x 15cm. Place the Mint  coloured sheet on top of the Blue one.

Step 3: Randomly postition the different cut out circles in various blue shades on top and roll over until you are left with a smooth circle designed surface. Cut circles out of the patterned sheet, 4 of each size.

Step 4: Using a thick needle, make a hole right through so later these will become beads to string elastic through.

Step 5: Each earring is made of 3 thin different sized circles in different shades, placed on top of each other. Before baking hard, pierce a hole through all three layers close to the top to attach the hooks later.

Step 6: For the necklace, make a sausage of each colour approx 20cm long and 5mm diameter. Then cut into 3mm slices.

Step 7: Press 2 different coloured Fimo slices on top of each other with the wire for the necklace sandwiched in the middle. Continue until decorated evenly.

 

Step 8: Place all parts in an household oven pre-heated to 130 degrees celcius. Leave to harder for 30mins, remove and allow to cool slowly.

Step 9: String the different sized beads for the bracelet alternately onto the elastic and tie ends together. The earrings are also attached to the hooks with elastic.
