FIMO Clay Pumpkin Earrings

For the earrings, make two round balls out of orange fimo clay. Working around the ball, make slight indents with your clay cutting tool to make the rims of the pumpkin. While the clay is soft, poke a headpin through each ball from one side to another.

Then add the detail – cut out black clay shapes for the eyes and mouth and stick these on your pumpkins to make the faces. Using small lengths of green clay, roll out two tiny balls. Press them flat with your fingers, then wrap them around the top of each pumpkin and headpin to make a stalk. Roll out two more lengths of clay, making them into strips that you can wrap and curl around the stalks.

Bake, as before, for 30 minutes in the oven at 110°C when you’re finished. When your pumpkins have cooled down, use your round nose pliers to make a loop in each headpin, trimming off the excess with your wire cutters. Attach your earring findings to the loop to complete this project.
