Moon Phase Beads and Bracelet!

Hellooo ^u^
Hope you enjoy this little instructable :)

a ring
a needle(with a ball tip)
clay(I used air dry )
black paint(acrylic)
a brush
a hollow carved bead

Take a bit of clay and flatten it on the surface.Push the bead on the clay and carefully lift it up with the needle.

Push the ring in the middle and take off the excess clay.You can go around with a knife too.Lastly clean off the edges with the needle and soften with the ball tip.

Repeat the first step for the half moon but keep the shape a bit on the left side.Then cut it in half with the knife.Clean the hard edges with the needle.

Again repeat the first step but this time crate the crescent shape by pressing the ring on the clay.

Using the needle create a little hole on top of the shapes and make it larger using the tip of a pen or a toothpick.If you want you can leave it without painting,it looks pretty cool in my opinion :)

Okaay this step can be a little tricky just be careful :)
Hold it with the tip of a pen and paint reaaally lighly on the clay.So that you only paint the surface.

Now the beads are done you can make everything you want!
I just attached one bead to a bracelet but you can make a choker necklace too :).
Sorry I couldn't take pictures when I was making the bracelet...
