By following the instructions below you will make one earring. Repeat all instructions to make the second earring.
  1. First, watch our video on how to use Crystal Clay.
  2. Put on the gloves that come with your Crystal Clay. Pinch one chickpea-sized amount each of the white clay and the binder and mix together until blended.
  3. Place the clay into one earring bezel and tap until smooth.
  4. Place one starfish bead in the center of the clay and lightly press so it is captured by the clay.
  5. Using the beeswax tip applicator that comes with the Crystal Clay, place the Metallic Crystal Sunshine Austrian crystal crystal chatons around one side of the starfish.
  6. Place the Light Turquoise Austrian crystal crystal chatons around the other side.
  7. Let the clay cure for 14 to 16 hours, then your earrings are ready to wear!
