Instructions:

Begin mixing white Makin’s Clay® with DecoArt® Turf Green and Hauser Green Light
acrylic paint (about a nickel sized amount of each color).   Do not mix entirely - you want there to be slight marbling of the colors.  Add a small drop of DecoArt® Plantation Pine paint and mix in lightly, again marbling the darker green paint.   

Use Clay Roller to roll clay to about 1/4”.  Place onto JudiKins™ Clay Squisher over desired pattern and roll again lightly to impress pattern onto clay.  

Use largest circle cutter from 3 piece set and cut circle from impressed clay.  

Smooth edges of circle with fingers.  Use straw to cut hole in center of clay circle.   

Apply JudiKins™ Diamond Glaze™ to front and sides.  Let dry, apply to back.  Let dry and add red satin cording. 

60g of Makin's Clay® will give you enough faux jade to make many pendants - each one will be unique and have it's own color variations.
