Directions:
Now, let’s gather some supplies and get started!
- Grab your clay and a rolling pin.
- Roll out the dough on a flat surface.
- Grab your acorn cookie cutter and cut out your shapes.
- Carefully transfer each one to a cookie sheet or large ceramic plate.
- To add some bling and color, grab your tweezers and sequins.
- Gently push them into the clay near the top of the acorn. Arrange them however you want but keep them in that general area.
- Once done, place your clay shapes on a cookie sheet or plate.
- Then place in an undisturbed area and let them air-dry for a few days. Depending on the thickness, it may take a bit longer.
- When your sequined clay acorn pieces are completely harden, go ahead and hot glue your magnets to the back for easy displaying on the fridge!
