How to Add Holes to Clay Beads

Video Transcript

Hi. I'm Melina and I'm with Expert Village and I'm going to show you how to make a beautiful transfer polymer bracelet. For this next step we're going to add the holes through the beads. We're going to take our beads and we're going to turn them over. Then we're going to take some of our clear clay and we're going to soften it. We're going to roll it into a log and cut it into five different pieces. It doesn't have to be very big. About a 1/2 an inch. Then what you're going to do, you're going to take your poking device and you are going to flatten out a piece of the clay. You're going to pick up a bead and you're going to make some cross hatches. You're going to add a little bit of glue. You're going to glue a small rectangular piece of clear clay to the back but you're going to put your poking device under it. And what you're trying to do is make a place for the string to pass through. And it's even thick enough so that we don't have to use wire. We can use string.
