How to Make Fimo Beads
Fimo beads are handmade beads created with polymer clay. This
special type of clay, sold under the brand name Fimo, is created from PVC
plastic and a plasticizer chemical that keeps the clay moldable and soft until
it is cured. Fimo clay is unique in that it can be fired in your home oven and
does not need a special kiln.
Instructions
You'll Need
- Colorful polymer clays
- Hollow cake tin
- Varnish
- Oven
- Crochet, knitting needle or
toothpick
- Flat tray
1. Get a ball of polymer clay in the color of your choice.
2. Knead the clay with your palm to make it warm and more pliable
3.
Divide it into small
balls of equal size. Ensure that the balls are at least the size of a penny.
4.
Take each ball one by
one and give each one of them a cylindrical shape using your palm. It should
create vein patterns on the beads. In case you are not satisfied with the
veining you can re-shape them.
5.
Pass a knitting
needle, crocheting needle or even a toothpick through the center of these beads
to facilitate threading later.
6.
Hang the beads on a
hollow cake tin so that they can dry. This process also helps the beads retain
its proper shape.
7.
Bake the beads in the
oven in a hanging position at 2650 F or 1300 C. It takes about 30 minutes for
the beads to harden.
8.
Cool the beads. Take
them out one by one of the needle slowly and carefully and keep them in a flat
tray.
9.
Coat the beads with
Varnish to protect them.
