Description These are all the charms I was selling at JAFAX. About half of them sold, I was pretty happy. c:

I'll be putting a picture with the ones I have left up soon- all of the foxes sold, but none of the pandas! That was pretty surprising to me, last year they were pretty popular.

Also I made a Pikachu charm I was pretty proud of, that was a custom someone asked for. I'll also put up a picture of that one, I just don't want to waste a whole deviation on it.

This year I started making the charms a little more durable- people had been having problems with the loops falling out, so I've started closing off the loops on the bottom before putting them in the clay, then closing off the hole it makes with more clay. It's worked pretty well so far, I've been carrying around a panda in my purse and the loop's stayed in. Granted, the loop on my kitty I was carrying around last year also stayed in for a year in my purse, so maybe people have been yanking on them or something. But yes. So some of my old charms may still have the loop problem... next year I'll have cycled out all of my older ones, so there should no longer be a loop problem. Unless you try to take the loop out. Then you'll probably take out the extra layer of clay, too. And that's your own fault.

Zaphy1415926 In reply to petlovergal1234 [2010-07-17 23:06:33 +0000 UTC]

Yes, they're made out of white Sculpey clay, painted with the cheapest acrylics I could find, and glazed with Sculpey glaze. c:

Super Glue. Seriously. It's amazing! Put a hole in the charm with the headpin thing then pull it out. Bake the charms then take them out and put the glue on the headpin and stick it in! It works great ^.^ Cute charms by the way!

That's... a really good idea. I'd never thought of doing that! I make a loop where both ends go into the clay though, so I twist it a few times at the bottom to close it up, stick it into the unbaked clay, then cover up the hole it makes with a bit more clay. It's worked like a charm (har har har) so far. And thanks, I see you have quite a few adorable charms yourself... I must check out your gallery! c:

Thank you ^.^!

Well I'm glad that works! I used Translucent Liquid Sculpey at first but my hook things kept coming out too.

I too am looking through the rest of your gallery ^.^! It's pretty~<3
