Gilded Pansy Ornament

[Pansy Ornament]
This easy project is made with
the Pansies Push Mold.

For this beginner's project, choose a single dark clay, such as Bronze Fimo®. Roll two 1/8" diameter clay ropes, twist them together, and form a 1-3/4" circle. Use the Pansies Push Mold to mold two large pansy leaves, one large pansy, and two small pansies. Arrange the leaves and flowers over the seam of the twisted clay. Bake the clay and allow to cool. Apply metallic Rub 'n Buff® to the raised areas of the design, allowing the clay color to show in the depressions and for the pansies' "faces." Tie sheer gold wire-edge ribbon into a multi-looped bow. Curve and coil the ribbon tails. Use Arts & Crafts Goop to attach the ribbon and a loop of cording to the clay. (Photo does not show the full loop of cording for hanging.)
