Making my own present

.

I am a Mother’s Day gift idea thief.  I stole this idea from Courtney, who stole it from the Crafty Crow.  I have never worked with oven-bake clay before, and I found I wasn’t good at controlling the final shape of each necklace, but I like that they are each a bit different.  (I also used the squash-clay-with-a-paper-plate instead of the pen-rolling-pin method.)  Tea stuck his finger into them so the grandmas and I can wear his fingerprint around our necks.  I’m not much of a jewlery person, but Tea got a huge kick out of seeing me wear it.  (Yep, I wore it early.  My present, my rules.)
