Art club session 2. Key chains! We used lots and lots of beads, wire and wire string! I also experimented with a new air drying clay to make little ornaments for our key chains. The clay is called Jovi Patcolor. It’s a little like FIMO, but you don’t have to put this in the oven to go hard. It simply air hardens within a couple of days. I didn’t find it to be as malleable as FIMO, but for what we used it for, it was great!

      I used Jovi air drying modelling clay which I purchased from Riot Art (not sure where you are from). The details are in my key chain post.
