The next step of this project is to take our pendents and take our beads and put them in the oven. We are going to cook them at 275 for about 10-15 minutes. Depending on the thickness we can get away with 12 minutes. If you do something really big and bulky you want to cook it a little bit longer. You also want to make sure and double check and read the packaging of your fimo and see what is the recommendation to temperture. Some have different temperatures usually it is 275. So if you don't have a fimo oven and you don't have a toaster oven you can put this in your conventional oven. You are just going to take a regular tray that you cook on and cover it with foil. So now I place the beads and the pendents just on a separate sheet of foil and I'm going to put it to our clay baking oven. Polymer making oven. We are going to cook it at 275 for about 12 minutes. So we are going to set our timer to 12 minutes, set the temperture to 275 and we are going to put in our work.
