DIY Clay Ring Cones

SUPPLIES

• white oven bake clay
• acrylic paints (some colors I used: white, black, cloud blue, pink)
• gold paint
• sculpey glaze
• paint brushes

DIRECTIONS

These cute little ring holders could not be easier to make & I love that they are so customizable!

1. Using your white clay, get desired amount and roll into shape. Put more pressure on one end to create a small point and then flatten the thicker side so that it stands up on its own.
2. Once they are your desired size & shape, put the ring cone standing up on your baking sheet.
3. Preheat oven at 275° and once preheated put baking sheet with cones on it & bake for approximately 40 minutes. (The directions say about 15 minutes for every 1/4″ so the time spent in oven may vary based on the size of your ring cones.)
4. When finished baking pull out of oven and let cool.
5. Nows the fun part! Grab your acrylic paints & brushes and paint your cones. You will need a couple of coats and let the acrylic paint dry between coats.
6. After your acrylic paint is done drying, add gold accents using the liquid gold metallic paint. (I recommend doing this part outside or in a well ventilated area because the smell is s-t-r-o-n-g!)
7. Once the acrylic paints and the liquid metal is all dry, add your glaze for a shiny finish. Make sure to let the glaze dry between coats.
8. Once you are finished, let your ring cones dry for at least 24 hours before using them.
