Lay down a sheet of wax paper and roll out the clay with rolling pin until it is about 1/4" thick. You should have a smooth surface on top.
Cut out circles from the flat clay. Use a round cookie cutter, the ring from a mason jar or cup.
Using mini metal cutters, cut out shapes from the clay circles.
Use a skewer or toothpick to make a hole in the top for the string.
Place clay on baking sheet and bake according to package directions. I baked for 15 min at 275F.
Remove the clay ornaments from the oven and let cool completely.
Once cooled, paint each ornament. Let dry completely..
If a more enamel looking desired, spray with a glossy sealant. You can also seal with Mod Podge.
Cut string to about 6 - 8 inch pieces and tie to the ornaments to finish.
