the title is stupid ignore it, it's an OC prop thingar. I WANTED to put "O HAY IT'S NOT A SCHOOL PROJECT!" but not enouf rooms lol >:

So yes. Polymer clay (Sculpey III) spellbook necklace thing that's not nearly gaudy enough. And it's all lumpy and weird. I'm prouder than I should be. I didn't think I'd like it this much. D: Also, the paper is clay.

Didn't get any good pics of the back, but it's pretty much the same as the front, sans the "lock" thing on the strap.

Also, it should be noted that if you use plastic rhinestones in your polymer clay pieces, don't put them on "permanently" until after the clay is baked. I learned that today. I should have known they would melt anyway, but I ignored my common sense. Luckily, it could have been something a lot worse. And I had plenty more stones, so....

I wanna make more of these book things, and possibly sell them (assuming I can bring myself to part with them, and people actually WANT them) but everyone makes things like this and sells them, so like... is there even a point? Also trying to think of other things to make out of my 2395436 packs of clay (thank you Michael's, for putting them on sale for .99 a pack D': ) that isn't food. :< Any ideas?

EDIIIIIT:
lol @ the ~one~ guy who faved this. Just so he'd get one more pageview. |: Seriously dude? I almost want to start preaching the whole COMMENT IF YOU FAV+ crap. SERIOUSLY.

Dude, that's wicked insanely cool. I love the buckle looking bit. ~<3

Don't mess with me! I have, er... a tiny resin bunny! And I'm not afraid to use him!
:iconkimbei:
You know what? That strap wasn't even long enough after I put the paper in and the surface edge details. D: I meant for it to come about halfway, so now the buckle looks funky sitting on the edge.

Think I'm gonna remake this thing. Maybe when I get my pasta machine on sale next week my things will turn out better. |: Need to get some cookie cutters too.... wonder if I can make some....

BUT THANK YOU FOR THE COMMENTS. :'D Not that I'd suspect you of that pageview crap, seeing as I know you anyway~ ahahaha
:iconlou136:
that's amazing *_*
:iconspecialagentfluffy:
Ah, well, I have a journaly thing that buckles near the edge, so I just thought it looked nifty. ^-^' I think it looks, like, right either way.

That sounds very cool. If you figure out how to make cookie cutters lemme know, I've been trying for a while unsuccessfully.

I've never gotten the obsession with getting pageviews. It's like 'OMG if I don't get moar pageviews ppl don't love me.' No.

GASP Kimbei I didn't know you had talent!

If decide to sell these then you should make them in losta different colors, green is nice but BLUE is better!
XD

or just make one with that one face that we found in the fonts in Art II Electronic Media~ you know what I mean, just make one with that face on it for the lulz

Love is like a stray dog .... it needs a breath mint and a good bath.

My sig used to make sense, but now I don't remember how I came up with it or why D':
:iconscicolevi:
In in any case, since it wont let me edit my above post, you should try to make other little charms and such like items that you think describe you or your friends, or keep it going with RPG type items. Like next you could make a sword or a shield or staff. just pitching ideas to you like you asked!
